Wonderful Egypt

The company's assistance is very attentive and professional. Their guides are very attentive and have a good command of the subjects. I mention and praise the professionals: Muhammad, who attended to us and welcomed us in a very positive and polite way; the guides Farouk, Marian, Shady who taught us a lot about Egypt. Also praise to Rooa who led the sale of the package and gave us all assistance.

Trip to Egypt

The trip to Egypt was a dream that turned into reality. Every day was a mix of emotions: the amazement in front of the Pyramids, the magic of the Nile at sunset, the feeling of walking through millennia of history. The organizers were impeccable: attentive, helpful, and always ready to make every moment special, especially Ibrahim, a truly wonderful local person. Thanks to them, I was able to experience the trip with peace of mind, letting myself be carried away by the beauty of the places without a care. I carry with me memories that will remain etched forever: the warmth of the people, the colors of the markets, the majesty of the temples. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to discover Egypt not only with their eyes, but with their heart.

Great Experience & Team

My husband and I booked direct with Memphis Tours and booked the “Pyramids & Nile by Air” tour! It was absolutely amazing! We cannot recommend this company or tour enough! Everything was so fabulous. They are well organized, efficient, knowledgeable, and the communication is great! Our consultant was Ahmed Fathy. Our tour managers were Amgad Fawzy, Mohamed (Medo) Ahmed, and Abdelrahman Mohammed Taie. Our drivers were Mahmoud Ramadan (Cairo), Khamis (Aswan), and Mohamed Ibrahim (Luxor). Our tour guides were Ahmad Hassan, Sherif Shaaban, Ahmed Ragab, and Monica! I highly recommend using them. They are so friendly and make the whole experience so smooth and great! The atmosphere is great, we felt so safe the whole time. And the guides are so knowledgeable, they explained everything to us with such detail! And the tour managers really help keep everything organized and get you where you need to go on time and safely! The drivers are amazing as well!
