If you plan to visit the pyramids you are wasting your time doing so without a tour guide like Mohamed. He and his driver always picked us up on time, he was informative (without overloading us with too much history or assuming any prior knowledge of Ancient Egypt). His local knowledge meant we always had a cold drink of bottled water and had some delicious lunches.
