Your own licensed Egyptologist. Your own private car. No groups, no crowds, no waiting.

I've guided private Giza tours since 2009. I know exactly where to stand for the perfect pyramid photo, when the light is best, and how to bring these ancient stones to life.

We cover:
• Great Pyramid of Khufu — the last Wonder of the Ancient World
• Pyramid of Khafre with original limestone casing
• Pyramid of Menkaure & the Queens' Pyramids
• Valley Temple of Khafre — 4,500 years old
• The Great Sphinx — the real stories behind the icon
• Panoramic viewpoint — all 9 pyramids in one shot

You set the pace. This is your tour.

Free hotel pickup from Cairo & Giza hotels included.
