We start with the Great Pyramid in Giza.

- Menkaure Pyramid - The smallest of the three main pyramids in the Giza complex, the Menkaure Pyramid is located on the Giza Plateau on Cairo’s southwestern outskirts. It is believed to be the tomb of the Fourth Dynasty Pharaoh Menkaure.

Experience the life of real Egyptian people! - Our Guide, Taha, is a cheerful and friendly person. She is a tour Guide while raising three children. We were able to take visitors to the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx, enjoy a tea and shopping tour at the Egyptian Archaeological Museum and a local coffee shop in Hanhariri.
The staff at the Koshali shop, which is frequented by locals, were all friendly and gave me a taste of a shop that is not for tourism and that Egyptians enjoy every day.
We took a break at a coffee shop along the road, where we would not be able to sit on our own for tea experiences in Hanhariri. We got to know the real life of Egypt in a shop that was hard to get to on our own. (When the Japanese sat down, the hustle and bustle of the city and the selling of goods kept coming in Hanhariri, so we didn't need anyone who could enjoy the hustle and bustle of the Egyptian market or anything we didn't need! Although it is for those who can say that! It's a good memory, very Egyptian. lol)
Taha is still learning Japanese, and although there were some words that were difficult to translate from time to time, she was very hard at Guides, mixing up the English equivalent. It may be a little different from what you think when you imagine a tour of the country where everything such as HIS and jTB is handled with great care, but since you are someone who wants to fulfill our wishes, I think it would be better if you conveyed many of your wishes clearly and piece by piece.
I'm not fluent, but for example, if you have a shop or souvenir shop that you want to go to, you can use your phone or a map to express your selfish opinions and requests and they will consider it. (Many Egyptians are Muslim, so it's difficult to drink alcohol, for example.)
Whether you're looking to get caught up in Egypt, visit the local favorite koshari shop, experience a camel riding on a real back instead of a camel carriage (some of you might not be very good at it, so for those with a strong core!) or the crowded souvenir shop in Hanhariri, this is a real Recommendation for those who enjoy getting caught up in Egypt!
I have a strong desire to learn about Japan as well, so I think it is better not to be passive, but to communicate what I want to do more and more, and to make various orders.

日本語ガイドTaha Ahmedさんが最高でした！ - I have taken many day tours throughout my travel. Hands down, their service is one of the best I have experienced!! I made some query and requests, prior to the tour, they went all the way out to answer them!
家族4人で(小学生もいる)、日本語のガイドTaha Ahmedさんでした。日本語ネーティブではないTahaさんが、日本語で100%説明でない事が当然です。ただし、配慮いわゆる「おもてなし」「心遣い」最高でした。
＊ユウモアで話しやすい
＊オヤツと冷え冷えのお水(40℃近い猛暑)
＊アドバイス(チップの払い方、払わなくても良いタイミングなど
＊現地の果物、コーヒーを奢ってくれた
＊エアコンありのお土産屋とレストラン
カイロの滞在期間が短いでしたが、お陰で良い思い出たくさん！本当にありがとうございました！！

The best guide! - We spent a day sightseeing in Cairo.
This tour, which had Japanese in a tour guide that only spoke English, allowed us to deepen our understanding.
Our driver, Abdo, was gentle, and our guide, Taha, was a caring father of three children. They helped us out a lot, negotiating with us when we went shopping.
They were easy to talk to, and gave us guidance and service that was in line with Japanese sensibilities, so we were able to fully enjoy sightseeing in Cairo.
They even took us to a place far from the city, so we had a safe trip.
Thank you very much!

It was the worst tour ever. - I will be honest so that those who are about to travel to Egypt will not be disappointed.
I expected only good comments from Japanese people, but it was not satisfactory at all.
・I am not very fluent in Japanese. It's also good for general conversation.
・I cannot speak about Egyptian culture and history in depth in Japanese. I don't know if Japanese is difficult or if I don't have knowledge, but I asked many questions and they didn't answer well.
· I was on the phone and chatting with other people throughout the tour and they barely explained.
He is, quite frankly, the worst tour Guide. If you really need a Japanese Guide, you should hit the other one, and if you can speak English, there were many better Guides.
