Ahmed Turned Alexandria Into a Beautiful Seaside Storybook
I'll be honest, we didn't know what to expect from a day in Alexandria, but Ahmed made it one of the most delightful days of our entire trip.
He has this wonderful way of making you feel like you're being shown around by an old friend who knows all the city's secrets. Yes, we saw the magnificent library and the fort, but the real magic was in the in-between moments he created for us: stumbling upon a tiny, family-run perfumery, sharing a joke with a local fisherman, and finding a quiet spot on the corniche to just watch the Mediterranean waves.
You can tell he genuinely loves this city, and that passion is contagious. He knew exactly when we needed a strong coffee, when we were ready to escape the buzz of the streets, and he even helped me pick out the perfect silver bracelet as a souvenir.
We didn't just see Alexandria; we felt its heartbeat, and that's all thanks to Ahmed. Book him you'll come away with stories, not just photos.
This tour with Ahmed was the perfect contrast to the ancient Pharaonic sites. He masterfully guided us through the rich Islamic and Coptic history of Cairo. The day started at the Citadel, where the views over the entire city are worth the trip alone. The Mohamed Ali Mosque left us speechless with its grandeur. Then, we traveled to Old Cairo, walking down into the cobbled streets where Ahmed showed us the 'Hanging Church', the Ben Ezra Synagogue, and the peaceful atmosphere of the Coptic complex. He connected the dots between the different eras and religions, telling a continuous story of Cairo. It was a captivating, culturally rich, and beautifully paced day. Thank you, Ahmed, for showing us a different, equally magnificent side of Egypt.
Ahmed made our day unforgettable. He whisked us between Saqqara, Memphis, and Dahshur with such ease, sharing stories that made these ancient sites come alive. Best of all? He knew exactly how to find quiet moments we often had entire pyramids to ourselves! His passion was contagious, and his thoughtful touches (like cold water and perfect photo spots) made us feel so cared for. If you want a personal, crowd-free pyramid experience, book Ahmed!

Exceeded All Expectations
I've dreamed of seeing the pyramids my whole life. Ahmed made that dream even better. He got us there early to avoid the heat and crowds, and his guidance through the Cairo Museum was invaluable. His recommendations for local restaurants were the highlight of our trip. Don't visit Egypt without him!

Amazing pyramids tour
We had the absolute best day exploring Cairo with Ahmed Haiba as our guide. From the moment he picked us up, everything was comfortable and easy. The car was spotless, the AC was a lifesaver in the heat, and even had ice-cold waters waiting for us in the cooler.
Ahmed Haiba took us to the Great Giza Pyramids, where he set us up with an unforgettable camel ride, and then we explored Memphis and Saqqara with his incredible knowledge bringing the history to life. He has a way of making everything feel fun and effortless, and by the end of the day it felt like we were traveling with a friend we’d known for years.
Ahmed Haiba also introduced us to so many delicious local Egyptian foods we never would have discovered on our own, and it was clear he knows everyone everywhere we went — which made the whole experience even smoother and more authentic.
If you want a guide who’s warm, fun, and makes sure you have an unforgettable experience in Cairo, book with Ahmed Haiba. He’s simply amazing!
