Great tour program to the Coptic Cairo, with an extra bonus to see Citadel of Salah El-Din
We had a great tour by this vendor during our stay in Cairo!
The tour guide came to our hotel picking us up, and brought us to visit some of the key spots in Cairo: Coptic Cairo (Old Cairo), including the Hanging Church, the Coptic Museum, and the old Roman remains. The tour guide also went beyond the original program plan, taking us to visit the Citadel of Salah El-Din, seeing the fortress and the impressive Mosque of Muhammad Ali. The tour guide was very knowledgeable, and we learned a great deal of the local history from her.
The only thing I'd recommend for future improvements consideration, is before taking guests to visit some shops, ask them if they would be interested, and skip those if guests are not interested. We understand that many tourist places often including store visits as a way for revenue generation, which is fine if guests are ready to do some shopping, and it's just that the sales pressure at some of the shops reduced the fun for an otherwise excellent tour program.
Overall, this vendor and the tour guide were excellent, and worth the time and money for a day trip to the key spot of the Coptic area. The visit to the Citadel of Salah El-Din is definitely an added bonus!
Highly recommended!
Sahar was our guide and she was amazing—fierce in the best way possible! Knowledgeable, an awesome photographer, and basically our personal bodyguard (lol). She saved us from scams and even caught a mistake on our café bill in Khan El Khalili. A true gem—she made our tour unforgettable! ✨
Shoutout to our driver too—super cautious and made Cairo’s chaos feel safe. 🚗💨
Had a really great day to see the step pyramid, the red pyramid and the bent pyramid. We managed to go inside two pyramids and see how it was built from the inside. Our tour guide Hashim and our driver Ahmed were really knowledgeable, professional and friendly. I would highly recommend the tour.
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.
If you are Claustrophobic save your money and pass up going inside the pyramids! You must also be physically fit to go inside. There is a lot of bending, crouching and even some crawling with inclines and declines. Just seeing the pyramids and hearing the history from a guide is amazing!!! I would not go to the pyramids without a guide. They have so much history to share!
Great experience! Our guide Rania and our driver Moustafa were the best!
Our experience was absolutely incredible! Our guide Rania was very sweet and caring. She made us feel as if it was a personal friend showing us the area. She explained the sites very well, never rushed us and took plenty of photos including fun creative poses that turned out great! She answered any questions we had and the people that interacted with her spoke very highly of her. Our driver Moustafa was also wonderful. He was kind, engaging, and always had a smile. He was very accommodating and answered questions in the car along the way and even made impromptu stops for us at local shops we had previously visited and wanted to return to. Overall these two made for one unforgettable, special experience of a lifetime.
Great experience, highly recommend!
Tour guide Rasha (spelling ?) was fantastic. Polite, punctual, very knowledgeable. Took the time to answer questions and take great pictures. Tour provided every item on the itinerary as promised.
Excellent day. Thank you.
Everything was amazing! From pick up to meeting with our guide and to the very end, everything was excellent! Bassant was exceptional!! She was very welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful with all our questions. The driver was also very helpful! I do apologize I forget his name but he was also very kind and even asked if we needed anything else before he took us back to the hotel. 10/10 would highly recommend, having a tour guide is very helpful!
A great day trip to see many pyramids South of Cairo.
We had an excellent trip. Our driver and guide picked us up on time from the Giza Hotel, and then we headed down to Saqqara first, next on to Dahshur, and finally Giza. Our guide was Hussam and he was very friendly and knowledgeable at all the sites. Because we had a guide with us we also felt 'protected' from other would-be guides and vendors. It's well worth the money to pay for the full package in my opinion.
Only had a short time to see old Cairo and this half day tour ticked all the boxes for us . The guide Sandy was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic and explained the history relating to the sites we visited pointing out the areas of interest . She let us dictate the pace of the trip and gave us choices of what we wanted to see .
Our driver was also brilliant and we felt safe negotiating the Cairo traffic.
A great half day tour
Alaa was the highlight of our trip to the Pyramids! She’s super knowledgeable and makes learning fun with interactive trivia and treats. She also has a great eye for photography and took such lovely photos of me and my wife. Such a sweet person and an incredible guide. Highly recommend!
Rasha was excellent. We would have been fairly lost going round the pyramids without a guide - it’s fairly chaotic - so very glad indeed we had her and the wonderful driver too. They respected our request for no shopping trips, and got us back to our hotel in good time for our evening flight. Thank you both, made the day smooth and enjoyable.
