Top Cairo Half-day Tours - page 70

We had a lovely tour of the Grand Egyptian Museum by our private guide Mohamed El Wazir. Communication the day before was perfect with a WhatsApp message with a photo of the vehicle picking us up the next morning. The tour was at a relaxed pace with us spending more or less time at each part of the museum as per our wishes, Mohamed was knowledgeable, well humoured and answered all our questions and made it an interactive experience just for us. The museum itself is amazing, Grand in scale and architecturally beautiful. The artefacts are everything you can imagine and more. Mohamed was very accommodating and patient with us taking a break for lunch and a coffee and visiting the gift shop. When the tour was finished, Mohamed asked us if there was anything we hadn’t got a chance to do in our first few days and we said we’d like to have a cartouche made with my wife’s name on. He took us somewhere where we were greeted by lovely warm people who were not pushy at all and made the perfect memento for my wife as well as giving her a complimentary buff of her engagement and wedding rings. It was the perfect way to end our visit to Egypt. Can’t recommend the tour or Mohamed highly enough. Fantastic experience for the family.

Very good tour, the private car picked us up on time, the driver was good and the car was clean. We did it as family and friends of 6. We met our tour guide Hana, who had a great energy and was very engaging, she had great knowledge, and provided constant information throughout the tour. The dinner was in a restaurant located in a new development, it lacked atmosphere and character, the food was average and dinner felt rushed. We have seen all the sites as advertised and we felt safe with Hana walking the streets of Cairo. Overall good tour despite the dinner let down. We would do it again.

Mo was an absolutely incredible guide. We had limited time and Mo accommodated our schedule to make sure we were at the airport in plenty of time for our flight. He is very knowledgeable about the history of the pyramids and provided a great deal of interesting history. It was incredible riding the camels and getting Instagram worthy pictures of the pyramids. Mo took some pictures of us with the pyramids in the background that were very creative. He even took us to places in the complex that few know are there to visit. We even went inside the Great Pyramid and into the Pharaoh's chamber. We highly recommend this tour, and especially Mo.
