We just came back from our holiday in Egypt, the highlight of the holiday was the trip to Pyramids from Sharm El Sheikh, Sherriff our guide was amazing, he had interesting information about Egyptian history and culture, the walking tour around the great pyramid of Giza was just like a beautiful dream, then he guided us to the top of the Giza plateau where we took some spectacular photos of the pyramids for memories. Me and my family would recommend this trip to every one.
