After 105.23 meters (345.2 ft.), the passage becomes level and continues for an additional 8.84 meters (29.0 ft.) to the lower Chamber, which appears not to have been finished.

A VIBRANT EXPERIENCE

Published on Jun, 2024

VERY INTERESTING ENCOUNTER WITH CAIRO AND GIZA. A VIBRANT FULL OF LIFE CITY. OUR GUIDE WAS NASSER, A TOTAL GENTLEMAN WITH EXCELLENT KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE HISTORY OF EGYPT. IT WAS DEFINITELY A PLEASURE HAVING HIM AROUND AND I RECOMMENDED TO ANYONE. CAIRO IS MIND BLOWING AND FILLED WITH CONTRASTS. THE BIGGEST SHOCK IN ADMIRATION WAS THE WAY THEY DRIVE. IT'S SOMEHOW A WELL COORDONTATED CHAOS THAT, INCREDIBLY, WORKS. THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH AMIMALS IS AMAZING. FROM CAMELS, HORSES, CATS AND DOGS, EVERYTHING IS PURE HARMONY. OUR ACCOMMODATION WAS AT THE HAYAT HOTEL. A HOTEL WITH AMAZING VIEW, VERY TASTY FOOD AND FRIENDLY STAFF BUT WITH SOME TEHNOLOGICAL ISSUES. THE WI-FI IS KIND OF LIKE A SNEAKY NINJA. APEAR AND DISAPPEAR IN THE HOTEL AND NOT EVER IN OUR ROOM. TV ALSO AND THE AIR CONDITIONING REFUSES TO WORK FROM MORE THAN TIME TO TIME. TIPPING IS A PART OF THE GAME AND CAN BE OVERWHELMING. ANYWAY, ALL IN ONE, WAS AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE AND LIKE I WROTE AT THE BEGINNING, A GOOD GUIDE IS VERY IMPORTANT AND BECAUSE OF THAT I WILL SEND TROUGH HERE A BIG SHUKRA TO NASSER.

A wonderful experience

We booked a private one day trip through TripAdvisor. The experience exceeded pur expectation, the awesome giza pyramids and coptic cairo takes you back in time. Would also like to thank Mr Naseer who is very knowledgeable and a gem of a person. He patiently explained the history of the places and went out of the way to make us feel comfortable. Mr Hasan (driver) too was very accommodating .

Very interesting !

Nasser was our guide. He has a wealth of knowledge and experience. It was a fantastic tour and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. We learned and laughed . I recommend this tour with Nasser to all. Thank you, Sir!

Best guide in Cairo

Published on Apr, 2023

We had a fantastic day out in Giza and Cairo with Mohamed the driver and Naser the tourist guide. They have been super friendly and helpful. A must if you want the get the most out of your Egypt holiday. Mohamed the driver is very good and safe. Naser the guide is very knowledgeable about all sites we visited and helped us out a lot keeping away scammers and to pay the right price for everything we bought. They took us to the best shawarma place in Cairo. ( best shawarma of my life) I definitely recommend this guys to have a fantastic time in Giza and Cairo hustle free

Unforgettable experience and knowledgeable tour guide...Thank you Nasser.

Published on Jan, 2023

This tour was beyond amazing. Nasser and the driver(forgot his name) arrived at our hotel on time. Visiting the pyramids and sphinx was surreal. Nasser is a great photographer and took amazing personal photos of us at the pyramids. We wanted to dine at the 9 pyramids lounge and he graciously waited in the car for 1 hour as my partner and I ate breakfast and took pictures. He personally walked us up to the lounge and asked a waitress to attend to our needs urgently. We extended an invitation for him to join us but he politely declined. The rest of the day ran smoothy as planned. We customized our itinerary by skipping the perfume /art shop all together. Coptic Cairo was amazing too. Before dropping us off at our hotel, he took us to a local shop per our request so we could purchase snacks, water, and juice for our hotel. We appreciated his great hospitality and care toward us. The least we could do is leave a good tip. +5 stars tour.
