Hi Hany, Well we have arrived back safely, it's a bit cooler here!. We just wanted to say a massive thank you for the two days that we spent with you. It's always a difficult decision choosing a guide - we got it 100% right this time. From the minute you turned up it was just like being with an old friend. You have a style that makes your guests feel like they are special, your knowledge of Egypt is also a massive plus - believe me we have had guides who know nothing. We also had a lot of fun and laughs along the way, we will definitely be back to see you again. To any future clients - if you are looking for a guide Hany is the man! From a personal point of view it was great being with somebody with an Engineering background - I believe your theory will soon become the accepted version of events, I will certainly be promoting it. I have attached a couple of pictures for you. Once again thanks & please keep in touch (do you have a facebook page?) Best wishes Your new friends Garry & Sandra. |

Theresa My wife and I engaged Hany through the internet on our recent trip to Cairo and Egypt in July. As well as providing himself as a guide in the Cairo region, he organized local guides and accommodation throughout lower Egypt. At all times he was extremely courteous and good humored, and provided us with good value for money. He has an excellent knowledge of Egyptian history, archaeology and all the various sites, and is a fluent English speaker (I am not sure what other languages he speaks). Like all travelers to a ‘strange’ foreign country like Egypt, we were a little hesitant about booking someone unknown through the internet, but we had absolutely no regrets in our choice of Hany. Hany is a gentleman by any standards, highly knowledgeable, and very enjoyable and safe company. He has high moral and ethical standards and I do not believe that he would ever ‘rip-off’ a visitor to his country. We met his wife and she is also a charming and well educated person. I would not hesitate to recommend Hany as a guide and tour organizer to any foreign traveler, male or female. Good luck with your trip, From : Gary .Jones Sent :Thursday.16 October 2008 9:43AM To: tulrich@cruiseone.com Subject : RE :Ulrich-Cairo Escort |

Dear Hany, Hope you are keeping well. We got back a few weeks ago and are now already busy with routines! However great memories of Egypt (especially our day in Cairo) help us get by! Once again we would like to thank you for all your help and more importantly your perfect planning of our day. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and did everything we had in mind including shopping for the oil lamps! Needless to say that all our friends know about you so we will make sure if any of them go to Egypt, we will give them your contact details. I have attached two photos that we took with you. We wish you the very best for all your future tours. Warm regards Devaki Devaki Sameer Khurjekar |

Paul Jackman-Graham <Paul@pauljackmanconsulting.ltd.uk> to Hany Halim <exceptional.egypt@gmail.com> date 3 October 2009 20:29 subject Thanks
Hany, We have made it home ok and are getting sorted out, just about. We both want to thank you so much for the tremendous difference you made to our all too short spell in Cairo. You looked after us wonderfully well, and without you we would have gained only a very small fraction of the experiences, knowledge, and memories which we have come away with. Our trip to Cairo is definitely one to remember. Thank you so much.
For anyone planning a trip I really must say that if you are thinking of doing it on your own without a guide then DON’T. You really will be wasting the money you spend getting and staying there. If you try to pick and choose group trips and go to places by taxis you really will miss out on the personal attention, and if there are two of you, or a family, then you will actually probably end up spending more than you would by hiring your own guide. And when it comes to choosing your guide don’t forget to look for experience. Hany has it all, I suspect that if there is anything he does not know then you really wouldn’t need to know it!
Again Hany, Our thanks, |

Liz & Paul RBauman316@aol.com to exceptional.egypt@gmail.com date 20 September 2009 16:57 subject Testimonial We had a marvelous time on our tours with Hany Halim. Hany not only knows Egypt he knows how to bring Egyptian history and culture alive for those he takes under his wing. An engineer by training and a people person by inclination Hany offers interesting and perceptive observations on any topic you choose to discuss.
Hany took us on a pyramids tour that included, at his suggestion and our option, pyramids that pre-date the most famous ones at Giza and are fascinating in their own right, yet rarely visited. Hany also took us through the Egyptian Museum, showing us the highlights of that marvelous place and weaving a historical context of stories that greatly enriched our experience. Hany will also provide you some interesting shopping opportunities if you desire.
Hany is more than a guide. He can help arrange your trip. Although we did not use him in this capacity, we would on a return trip because we saw the hotel he had arranged for one of his other clients.
I highly recommend Hany. You will enjoy your time with him! Randy Bauman Oklahoma City, OK rbauman316@aol.com |

From: Charmaine.Smith@uct.ac.za To: exceptional.egypt@gmail.com Subject: Re: Half day trip to Giza pyramid
Hi Hany I spent half a day in Cairo to visit the pyramids, and Hany was a fantastic guide and companion to do it with. He is a real go-getter for whom no request is too small or too large - all to happy to do whatever it takes to make your visit enjoyable and memorable. Our conversations were stimulating and laced with humour, and he surely is connected to get you in at the sights very quickly. He is clearly very knowledgable about the ancient Egypt civilisation, and shared very interesting facts with me. I don't think Cairo would have made such a big impression on my iif I didn't explore it with this interesting man. I am looking forward to come back and see more with you, Hany! Charmaine Smith, Cape Town, South Africa.
I am attaching a few photos of the day. Thank you once again for a wonderful and enjoyable experience - I really do want to come back!
Best wishes until we speak again - and remember my invite to come visit in Cape Town! Charmaine |

Jacky Hannat wrote on Wednesday, October 15, 2008 9:01 PM to I read in a guide book about a cat cemetery called Bubastis, in Zagazig, and we put this place on our itinerary. The tour company we were using booked Hany Halim to take us around. We got on well with Hany from the first time we met him. He has a wonderful sense of humour, has a great knowledge of Egypt and all its history and has a very good command of English. We have had many guides but Hany is by far the best. It is also useful that when one e-mails him he responds immediately. |

Frank S. Duke, Jr. <dukefs@zoomtown.com 30 November 2009 00:34 just spoke to someone who from Cincinnati, OH who you guided (from your references) and he highly recommended your services. He said you took them to Saqqara very early in the morning before the tour buses got there and they had a great experience. We would like to try to do that on the morning of the 26th, if possible. After this tour, we are open to suggestion for the rest of the day. We would like to engage you for the whole day. |
