Gringo alert….
Curiosity enriched by National Geographic magazine and family who talked about these things, lead me to….
Instagram.
Instagram took me to MegaLithic Marvels-Derek in Seattle. He put me and a group of others into the hands of
Saba Tours aka Mohamed Ibrahim of Cairo.
Once in the presence of Mohamed and his backyard known as the Giza Plateau and Nile River Valley, one can not but be riveted to Mohamed’s every word.
His ability to express and convey a life time of direct experience growing up around antiquities, his curiosity and discipline that led to a rich academic degree, are directly evident in his presentation and theories on all that is Egyptology. He is the guide.
After my first trip, I knew I would come back to Egypt and Saba Tours.
I came back for more Mohamed.
Great guy, fun easy going and…
The guy knows things.
History of peoples, language linguistics, Old Testament, hieroglyphics, geology, engineering , not wedded to indoctrination,
He takes you to great local restaurants.
To eat like an Egyptian is one the great pleasures in life.
If you are curious..,,
Go with Mohamed and Saba Tours.
Great accommodation and safe travels lets you concentrate on learning at the foot of a fascinating man in love with his country and all that it can teach us.

Mohamed Ibrahim, his wife Noha, and his excellent team at Saba tours provide the best tour imaginable. The wealth of information at each site, first class accommodation, delicious food, (all at a most reasonable price) are beyond expectation. From pyramids to temples, desert to Nile, bus to boat, and from adventure to amazing adventure, one couldn’t ask for more! I toured with them once before and I will certainly do it again.
We had to cancel our trip about 11 days ahead of time, so we didn't actually stay at your hotel. We're still waiting for a refund although we know it has to come from the tour group we were with.
Update: the total cost of our room was refunded! Thank you so much!

Fantastic Trip to Egypt with SABA Tours (with special attention to details). Especially appreciate the efforts of SABA Tours to assure we each had a memorable journey through the Giza plateau and beyond. The hotel accommodations were perfect, the drivers were amazing in Cairo traffic, all the staff were friendly, helpful and supportive at all levels, welcoming us as family and making me feel at home with new friends. The food was outstanding, both at the hotels and with private family restaurants. The daily tours to Giza plateau and Luxor were powerful and almost overwhelming, their was so much to experience and learn, and between Mohamed Ibrahim and Freddy Silva, I was torn which one to follow and listen to at any given time. My only complaint is that there was not enough time to fully experience each site, but as a first time exploration, it was enough to make me want to come back for more! I need to schedule another, longer trip that allows more time for appreciation of the energies encountered at each site visited. Thanks for a wonderful journey. Would recommend to everyone! *****
Saba Tours is first class! They just spoil you. I was on the 2024 4BK Egypt tour. During our tour, I accidentally left my phone on the plane and they had it back to me in less than 2 hours.. I didn’t have to worry about anything. They are more than a business, they are your best friends that know how to show you a good time!
