Group dynamics are important
Different than expected, beause we couldn't really shop at the bazar. Spend a lot of time in traffic and in our group was a boring couple.
BUT we loved the NileCruise and the guide really tried his best. Went out of his way to get the kids shawarma.
To us we would prefer to do this without a guided group , what seems very doable. We would be more free and the atmosphere would be better.

Ola is the best!!!
Ola was amazing! The way she presented the tour, you could tell she was extremely knowledgeable about everything she was talking about. She answered all of questions and was extremely kind. We learned so much about Egyptian history, architecture and the Muslim faith.
Every stop we made, we met new people and each was just as friendly as Ola. She made sure we got to experience so many different things. The pyramids were amazing but if she offers you a felucca ride, make sure you take it. It was such a calming and peaceful way to wrap up the tour.
My brother and I will definitely be back to Egypt and we already know that Ola is the guide we want.

Pyramid Tour
Fatima was funny, engaging and extremely knowledgeable. She provided expert explanations, kept us engaged, and provided the best overview of the pyramids and GEM. She was so good we booked another tour specifically with her. Cannot recommend this tour enough and recommend you request Fatima specifically.

Excellent experience- highly recommended
A really special experience that stays with me months after I returned from the visit to Saqqara. The driver and guide I was lucky enough to travel with, Mr. Hisham, was very knowledgeable and a great driver. He was helpful, positive and friendly from the first meeting to the end of the trip. I would highly recommend him to other visitors for a comfortable and interesting trip to the Egyptian countryside. As a female solo traveler he also made me feel very safe something that was valuable to me. Overall a great experience!

Tour to Alexandria from Cairo, full day
Great tour! I recommend, it started bad with the driver showing up at 6:45 a.m. instead of 6:00 a.m. But, after that everything went great. Adam, the driver was very courteous and attentive, his English dough, was poor. Ahmed, the tour guide was excellent, very knowledgeable, courteous, attentive at all of our needs.

A fantastic experience!
Andrew was absolutely fantastic—professional, attentive, and incredibly kind throughout the entire experience. He was always available, engaged wonderfully with my child, and made everything enjoyable and stress-free. He truly listened to our needs and wishes, ensuring every detail was taken care of.
On top of that, he took beautiful photos and explained everything clearly and thoughtfully. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience—highly recommended!

I had such a fantastic time with Hassen Ghanem. We spent the day in the Egyptian museum and the pyramids and he's a fantastic guide. He's so knowledgeable, patient with all random questions & I would highly recommend getting a private guide while you are in Cairo!

Best way to see a different side of Egypt
We were promptly picked up from our hotel by our kind and professional driver, Waleed in a comfortable van. The 3 hours journey was seamless. Waleed provided us with water and pointed out important landmarks along the way.
Our guide in Alexandra was knowledgeable about the history of catacombs and Citadel of Qaitbay. Lunch was at a local restaurant overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. I highly recommend Emo Tours Egypt and will definitely use again.

Excellent Tour !!!
We had an incredible experience visiting the Giza Pyramids with our amazing tour guide and driver! Traveling with my wife and daughter, we couldn’t have asked for a better team to take care of us.
Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate—bringing the history of the pyramids to life in a way that kept all of us engaged, even my daughter. Every detail was explained clearly, and all our questions were answered with enthusiasm.
Our driver was just as impressive—professional, punctual, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire trip. Navigating the busy areas around Giza is no easy task, but he handled it with ease.
Together, they made our day smooth, enjoyable, and unforgettable. Highly recommend this team to anyone looking to explore the pyramids stress-free and with a personal touch!

Great trip with Mohammed !
This is a really nice trip to take and very doable in a day. We wanted to escape the pyramids and the temples for a day and get a snap shot of life in a coastal city like Alex. Mohammed was a wonderful guide and we truly enjoyed his tour and his knowledge of Alex .

Our guide, Mario was very personable and knowledgeable and took the time to cover the material as well as our questions. Very informative tour that will encourage further study into the area. Many of the structures were simply awe-inspiring from within. Lovely tour!

Great first day tour in cairo
Usam and our driver were awesome to spend the day touring some of these amazing sites. I like the fact that we started in Memphis and Saqqara which avoided some of the crowds. Usam was engaging, helped us with goo picture sites and even how to avoid some of the scams with come
vendors.
We had a lunch of Kaosharo which was INCREDIBLE!
We finished off the day at the Giza complex. It was a great tour for the value.
The only items that were not on the original itenerary was a stop at an essential oil “museum” shop and a papyrus “museum” which was kind of not what we had planned. The oil shop was a sales job and while the products were nice (we actually bought a small bottle) it was a bit high pressure and we didn’t really want to shop like this. We simply asked to skip the papyrus shop because we figured it would be the same, so I would simply ask to skip those parts if you did not want to shop.
Overall, we loved our day with Usam !
thank you!

Not seeing something you are looking for?
The sprawling metropolis of Cairo is rich with historic sights and cultural experiences—and the logistics of taking them all in can be overwhelming in this bustling Egyptian city. The best way to visit ancient pyramids, sail on an authentic felucca, take photos of the Great Sphinx, or ride a camel is with one of the many Cairo day trips available to visitors. Some sightseeing tours feature the services of a professional Egyptologist guide who can provide more in-depth insight than a simple guidebook. Also, consider a day trip from Cairo to legendary Alexandria on the Mediterranean Sea.
