Best guided tour yet.
ctarmenta60, 18-10-2019
This is our third guided tour on a vacation. First two were Chichen Itza and Machu Picchu. This tour with our guide Ahmed Tonsi Tonsi was the best yet. Tonsi is very personable and professional, but most of all knowledgable. I expected to see the sights but was happily surprised with the amount of information offered up by our guide. Any questions about the sites were answered thoroughly. Our tour with Tonsi was very comfortable and friendly.
Dashur, memphis and saqqara with Ahmed Tonsi

Pyramids of Dashur are both grand and an adventurous albeit difficult entry into the tombs inside. Would not recommend for those with bad backs or claustrophobia.

Friendly, informative and fun guide, Ahmed Tonsi, who helped us get some of the best family pictures of our entire trip and was always accommodating to our needs
Saqqara

This is my 3rd tour with Tonsi and as usual we had a great time with him on our half day trip to Saqqara, Memphis, and Dashur. He was so patient with my son, entertaining him, and helping to care for him. Tonsi was fantastic about taking pictures for us, holding our bags, stopping for bathroom breaks, and allowing enough time to eat. Tonsi took us to a carpet making place that was really nice; they gave us a tour of the place, showed us the different methods used to make carpets, allowed us the opportunity to use the loom, and also buy carpets. Tonsi and his driver took COVID precautions. Tonsi is a great tour guide; my friends and I are planning future tours with him.
From Memphis to Memphis

This tour was an amazing walk through history. I am from Memphis, TN, USA, so going to Memphis, Egypt was absolutely surreal.

Our tour guide Tonsi Tonsi was absolutely amazing again. He’s very knowledgeable, and patient with the children in our group. He’s our go to person for tours for ourselves and friends.
Memphis, Dashur and Saqqara with Ahmed Tonsi
AChakrabarti, 07-12-2019
Pyramids of Dashur and Saqqara is a totally different experience, unlike Giza pyramids, in the middle of desert, away from city crowd. Ramesis II at Memphis is also not to be missed. Our English speaking guide, Ahmed Tonsi made this tour even more enjoyable for us with his friendliness, knowledge of history and caring attitude. He is the best guide we got during our whole stay in Cairo.
