Amir Sadek

If you're going to Egypt, I recommend a guide - and if you're getting a guide, I highly recommend Amir Sadek.

Amir's knowledge of Egypt is incredible and, with simplicity and humour, he took us on an unforgettable journey through ancient Egyptian history, the country and the people providing a context for all the places we visited. Amir is intimately familiar with the sites, the people and conditions and was invaluable in helping us set our itinerary. Guided by Amir, we followed a trouble-free, incredibly informative experience that would not have been possible under a self-guided tour.

Amir and his team provided impeccable service and were great company. Amir ensured that we were looked after from the time we arrived to our last night in Egypt.

A special thanks to his team: fellow Egyptologist, Zeinab, and his amazing drivers Abdul and Abdul. You were all amazing! :)

In case you're wondering, our 5 day itinerary included the Giza and Djoser Pyramids, the Sphinx, Valley of the Kings, Dendera, Luxor, Hatshepsut and Karnak Temples, Collosi of Memnon, Memphis, Museum of Egyptian Antiquities and everything in between. We even squeezed in time to ride camels, enjoy local cuisine (including a Nile dinner cruise on a felucca), visit little industries (making papyrus, alabaster and hand-made rugs), go to Old Cairo and even spend some time at the bazaar.
