Awesome Coptic Tour
Habibi and I did The Coptic Cairo Tour.
We were promptly picked up in a nice vehicle driven by Ehab, who was a terrific expert driver in the hectic Cairo traffic.
Unlike other drivers we have had here, he drove very smooth without jerking the car and weaving all over the road.
Our tour guide, Mounir .... what can you say? A credited egyptologist, who had so much information about the sites we were about to see. Friendly, patient, and overall one very nice guy. Even though this tour had a set itinerary, at our discretion and his suggestions, he tailored this tour to what we wanted to see. Mounir is one of the best tour guides we have ever had ... seriously.
We had lunch at a buffet restaurant, and the food was very good, international, and plentiful.
We walked through the local bazaar which was very interesting. It was fun listening to the vendors hawk their products.
We visited a few more mosques and got to see where a sultan was entombed in a crypt.
After a long day and a great tour, with utmost gratitude, it was time to say goodbye.
Both men made this one of the very best of the many Viator tours we have taken.
Jobs well done. A+++

Epic, iconic, flawless. Book this tour!
This tour was EXCELLENT. Epic, iconic, and just a dream come true. From start to finish everything was flawless.
I highly recommend the all-inclusive option with the camel ride and visits inside the pyramids. It was so much fun!
My tour guide, Saleh, was also excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind, fun, and flexible. I learned a ton about Egyptian history and never felt rushed. I also felt extremely calm and safe the entire time despite the chaos of Cairo. The guides are really good at protecting you from street peddlers, which I greatly appreciated.
Whether you're short on time or staying for a while, I can't recommend this tour enough!
Habibi!

Private tour
This was a very pleasant tour. My husband and I were taken to the various locations by a great driver in a comfortable air conditioned car. We also had the opportunity to stop at three different artisan shops- for jewelry, papyrus and fragrance oil, which worked out well since I had been wanting to purchase a cartouche necklace but a bit unsure of where would be reputable to do so. Lunch was a buffet, which had a lot of options, and the camel ride, while quite brief was good. Our tour guide, Anan, was a highly educated Egyptologist and spoke excellent English. She was also able to share some interesting stories about Egyptian culture and her experiences growing up in the country, and she made us feel comfortable spending the day with her. I do wish the camel ride would have been longer- it was so fun to be riding through the desert- but it seems all the various tours are doing essentially the same camel riding stop, which is mostly a photo op, and we did get some great photos. We had the opportunity to go inside the step pyramid, bent pyramid and red pyramid. We did not have a chance to go into either of the Great pyramids, so I am not sure if that is an option- although our guide said there is really nothing to see inside either. I think it is worth it to book the private tour because you are not straining to hear what the guide is saying, nor getting lost in a crowd.

We had a lovely day with...
We had a lovely day with our guide Ahmed and our driver Ahmed. We went to Memphis, Saqqara and the Pyramids. Our guide was an archaeologist and he was very knowledgeable, explaining everything and answering our questions as we went along. We also visited a perfume and papyrus shop. We tried some fragrances and saw how papyrus paper was made. We didn't feel any pressure to buy anything. Despite the chaotic Egypt traffic, our driver took as smoothly to all the places. It was our first day in Cairo and definitely a day we'll spent.

Fun day at GEM
Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), is a fascinating and overwhelming place. Our tour guide, Abdul, an Egyptologist, navigated us thru the many interesting exhibits while giving us an ingoing narrative of the meanings and histories of each. Abdul made sure we saw the most interesting exhibits, Tuts mask, the boats. Afterward Abdul took us to an enchanting local restaurant for a relaxing lunch. Also kudos to our wonderful driver Mohammed, who got us safely and timely to our destinations. Overall a very fun and adventurous day and a great look at Egypt’s rich heritage and history.

From the start it was...
From the start it was easy to communicate with our tour guide Mahmoud. Him and the driver arrived on time for pick up. It was our family of 5. Mahmoud made getting our entrance tickets easy. Then he took us to a separate man who had some camels for a short but memorable ride. Mahmoud then walked us around the site, helped take photos of the group, and gave us all the information! He is very knowledgeable in what he does! Our group felt safe with the driver and while walking around with Mahmoud. Would absolutely recommend this tour.

Absolutely Amazing
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING TOUR!! This blew our minds and souls. Our guide Essam and our driver Essam were real angels making all our wishes come true. Very appreciated the private version, I recommend.
All sights and landscapes are breathtaking.
I recommend also the Jeep tour in the dunes (extra) which is very folkloric and the magic lake vision is an awaken dream!!!
The 2 Essam (guide+driver) even set up a surprise present for our daughter’s birthday; they went surprisingly buy a big birthday cake with her name on it for after the lunch. I almost cried.
Such emotions, sympathy and pure generosity. All worth the price, perfect choice.

We were out and about with our tour guide Hany at the pyramids and in the new Egyptian Museum; Hany is a great tour guide, he catered to our needs and explained everything to us perfectly, our driver was also perfect, he got us through Cairo perfectly.
Many thanks to both Monika and Andreas

Lovely way to see Alexandria
Great way to learn about Alexandria. Liaising with the tour company was easy. I did the tour on a Friday so the library was closed (I knew this) and it meant that there was less traffic. My driver Walid was lovely & showed me sites as we drive to Alexandria. We then met my guide, Sheri and she was so knowledgeable and gave a detailed history about each site. Good amount of time at each site and some free time. All up the tour was a little shorter due to less traffic and closed library, but that suited me well.
