Giza Pyramids and The Great Sphinx - The highlight of our tour was, without a doubt, the depth of knowledge and passion our guide, Ashraf, brought to the experience. His insights and stories elevated our understanding and appreciation of each site we visited, making the ancient world come alive in ways I could never have imagined. One of the most fun aspects of the tour was the opportunity to ride a camel across the desert. Dubbed the "desert ship," this unique experience added an adventurous twist to our historical exploration, providing us with unforgettable memories and a deeper connection to the landscape that surrounds these ancient monuments. Thank you to Tree of Life Tours for their excellent and outstanding service. Your commitment to creating a memorable and enriching guest experience is commendable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore the Giza Pyramids and The Great Sphinx; it's an experience that will touch your heart and soul.

Giza Tour - It was a fantastic tour to the Giza Pyramids and The Great Sphinx; I almost cried when I touched the Pyramids, and Ashraf, our knowledgeable guide, made the tour go to a much higher level; we enjoyed riding the desert ship (camel). Thank you for your excellent and outstanding service, Tree of Life Tours.

Great day in Cairo - Mimo was awesome! Punctual and accommodating to our groups needs. He took us to an essential oil tasting and papyrus art store too. He was knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. Lunch was very yummy!

Great tour guide! - Fatma was a fantastic guide, very knowledge and clearly passionate about the history and sites. I learned a lot, plus she took a lot of photos. The only regret is that I wish there wasn’t such an emphasis on taking photos - I would have liked to live in the moment more but I think most tourists just like taking a bunch of photos so my tour guide insisted on taking those because she thought that’s what I wanted out of the experience. It’s probably my fault because I should have been more clear that I wanted to take less photos and just look at the pyramids and be present in the moment. So my advice is to be firm with your tour guides that you don’t want to pose for photos the whole time and assert yourself if need be. They’re sweet and just want you to have a good time, so just be clear what would make it a good time for you.

4 hour tour Pyramids of Giza & the Sphinx - Our tour guide, Manar Atwa, made our trip with all the factual information she imparted as well as theories about the construction of the pyramids and the Sphinx. She was sensitive to our feelings about the camel ride as well as the visit to the Papyrus production Center. She is a passionate Egyptian who is a great ambassador. Her command of English made her easy to understand and allowed her to cover so much information.

Forever Changed - I have never in my life filled out any review for anything, but I would be remiss to not do so for my friend Bassem. His love for his country and all people shines through with every word he says, and I am forever changed for having met him. We are already planning our next trip to other cities (we were just able to do Giza this time) and I cannot wait.
