Top Cairo Full-day Tours - page 8

We were only in Egypt for two days! So we had a lot of eggs in one basket hoping for lifetime memories of Egypt, Cairo, Giza and the pyramids! It was a lot to ask but this tour really delivered, principally because of our tour guide Ibrahim and the friendliest driver in the world, Sameer. Ibrahim was incredible, his English was impeccable and he spoke eloquently about Egyptian history, politics, traditions and the idiosyncrasies of Cairo culture. He was funny, engaging, patient and great with our two girls. More than all of this he gave us an incredibly passionate and informed reading of the history of the pyramids - he seemed particularly well informed having studied Egyptology in Oxford. Ibrahim anchored the mysteries of the Pharaohs and their tombs in historical terms and painted in rich technicolour the awesome achievements and vision of the ancient Egyptians. Seriously he was brilliant. In addition to bringing us to a much clearer understanding of ancient Egypt - he was sensitive to our need as a young family to have some moments to ourselves to be daft and have fun and he took some great pictures. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Our driver who spoke little English was smiling and generous and drove considerately. The lunch was delicious with a front seat view of the pyramids. The camel ride was a blast too! We had a fantastic day and came away from Egypt with lasting memories of our brief moment in the mind-bending history of the Pyramids. P.S. We went in May which seems to be a good time - it was really quiet and manageable heat.

Dina, our guide, is the real jewel of Egypt! Luxor has truly been the highlight of my husband and I’s trip to Egypt. Dina has a great energy and passion of the history here - and I really appreciated all the information and free time at the sights she provided! She was prepare with tickets and was also kind enough to lend me shade with her umbrella! While the day is busy and hot, every second and dollar spent was beyond worth it! I felt safe and had a great time! If I’m ever back in Egypt I would definitely do this tour again, it was smooth, beautiful, educational, and absolutely memorable! I loved Dina and I loved Luxor! I can’t give a better rating than 5 stars but if I could I would! Our drivers were also prompt clean and smooth.

The tour was amazing, not so popular as a lot of other tours but it's probably the most beautiful thing we have done during our vacation in Egypt. Our guide Karma is a very nice and kind person, well prepared and it is a pleasure to talk with her. Also the 2 drivers that accompanied us through the highway and the desert have been perfect!

Amr our tour guide and Ahmed our driver were both amazing! Amr is very knowledgeable about Egyptian history and culture and was willing to answer all of our questions. Each stop on this tour was fantastic and the lunch at a local Egyptian restaurant was delicious. I highly encourage anyone to take a tour with Amr and Ahmed. Our private car was clean and comfortable. Ahmed was a great driver navigating the traffic in Cairo and Fayoum.

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!

The drivers and tour guide were excellent. We were picked up from our hotel at the time specified in a comfortable car. The guide was informative and friendly. We got a welcome drink of tea at the desert camp (which also has good clean facilities) and then went on the 4x4 trip through the desert, up and down the sand dunes at speed which 3 of us absolutely loved and one of us was slightly terrified by! The valley of the whales was an interesting place and the lunch in the Bedouin tent was excellent, followed by a visit to the waterfall.

My visit to the pyramids and the ancient tombs was an unforgettable experience, made even better by my guide/photographer, Omar, a knowledgeable Egyptologist who brought every site to life with rich context and fascinating stories. Walking through the tombs and standing before structures that have endured for thousands of years gave me a deep appreciation for the history, beliefs, and daily life of ancient Egyptians. I’m so happy I came.

We had a fabulous time with our guides. The tour began with a camel ride to the best view of all 9 pyramids! Simply breathtaking. Then we continued on to the complex to further explore. We purchased the VIP option. I'm very glad we did because it was worth every penny. The evening cruise was quite nice as well.
