For anyone new to Egypt, I would unequivocally recommend Memphis Tours. They were very well organized, professional, and friendly. Not once did I feel uncomfortable even though I had never been to Africa or a Muslim nation. And know I have a great deal of respect for Egyptologists. I thought it was a glorified name but these tour guides can answer any question you might have, and did a great job of explaining Egyptian history & culture. My guide was Ahmed Kamel (English and Spanish offered); all other contacts with Memphis were also extremely professional and friendly. You can do as much or as little as you like with the company and the prices were very reasonable. There is a car always waiting for you, plenty of water is supplied, and meal breaks are planned. And you're picked up and dropped off whereever you want to be. The employees did really seem to care whether I had a good time or not. I'd recommend Memphis Tours to anyone, and will use them again if I make it back to Egypt.
