Hany Halim is a retired mechanical engineer and a former colonel. He changed his career in 1990, but the scientist within him kept researching his grandfather's notes about pyramid construction techniques. Now a professional tour guide, Hany proffers two brand new pyramid theories that were patented in 2002 and 2007.

From Hany: SMART USE OF YOUR SMARTPHONE

Are you smart? Of course you are. You would NEVER be one of those tourists that get to their destination and spend most of their time reading about it, rather than experiencing it… right???

Hi, my name is Hany, and my passion is sharing the mysteries of the Pyramids with smart travelers like you. I’ve seen tourists waste big portions of their trips reading about their destination at their destination, and they lose valuable time without realizing it.

What they actually need is a good guide that analyzes and explains what they are looking at, at that moment, to increase their understanding and enjoyment. There are many stories, jokes, and experiences that you don't find written in books, but they add a lot to your tour.

Books give us information, but guides can trigger our minds by asking questions at the right time. To prove my point, let me ask you, "What are the shapes of the blocks used to build the Great Pyramid of Giza?” Have you ever thought about that? Have you ever thought about the techniques used to build the pyramids? Do you know the theories about their construction? There is a lot more to discuss than dimensions and history!

In Egypt you definitely need a guide 24/7 because there are lots of historical links between the different places you visit. Without a tour guide you would feel completely lost in places like the Egyptian Museum, with its rich contents, and may easily leave without seeing some of its highlights.No one would tell you what is so special about the displays, what to notice and what to focus on, yet this is where most of the enjoyment can be found.

My tour about the pyramids of Giza is a good example of how a virtual tour guide can make the difference between a so-so visit and a truly rewarding journey. Join me as I make your visit to the pyramids an unforgettable experience!

FAQ: Is it safe to travel to Egypt? From Hany: Currently (Fall 2014) we have regained good control and most countries have removed their warnings about traveling to Egypt. EGYPTIANS are quite happy with our new president, El SISY, and his great moves and actions towards NEW EGYPT.
