Memphis Tours: Best way to experience Egypt!

To experience as much of Egypt and the amazing historical sites as possible within a week required excellent planning and experienced guides. I did an extensive search for a reputable tour planner for a family of 4 and decided on Memphis Tours. I was immediately contacted by a representative who then spent several weeks with me crafting the perfect itinerary, including expert guides, coordinators, lunch reservations, museum and site tickets, flights, top hotels, and private transfers. Giza, GEM, Karnak, Luxor, Valley of the Kings, Saqqara, Sarapeum, and more. There was not a minute of uncertainty – the communications before and during our trip were excellent. Our guides were certified Egyptologists who provided deep insight into the history and context of the sites and artifacts. Our coordinators ensured that transportation was always waiting for us and that all reservations and plans were ready when we were. We could not have had the first-class experience in Egypt without Memphis Tours, and we enthusiastically recommend them to everyone looking for an amazing, personalized, reasonably priced, memorable trip to Egypt. Special thanks to Maria Osama for her expert planning, Ahmed Ragab for his excellent coordination in Cairo, and Hassan Mohammed for his memorable tour around Luxor. Memories for a lifetime!
