What are people saying about Egypt

Exceptional service and friendly environment
Our family had a great time with our guide Ajoub. He was very informative and answered any questions we had. He also allowed us to take our time everywhere we went and never rushed us. Once we were done at the pyramids and sphinx he brought us to a place that he bought his shirt from since my dad said he liked it and wanted a similar one. Then he also asked if we would like to visit a place where they make papyrus paper/paintings and we agreed. We ended up buying a beautiful painting while there and were not rushed. After that we had an amazing buffet style lunch with many different options before arriving back at our hotel. We all had an amazing time and highly recommend Ajoub

Awesome Time
Our guide Mohamed, and our driver Mahmoud, with The Egyptian King Travel Agency were fantastic. Seeing the sights is one thing, but you’re guaranteed to enjoy that no matter what. What truly made this experience more incredible were Mohamed and Mahmoud. They were on time, accommodating, and went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of (water, bathroom access, food recommendations) We had great conversation and they both have great senses of humor. Mohamed’s knowledge of history, civilization, faith and religion are excellent and for any question we asked him, he took the time to give a detailed, in-depth response. We consider ourselves lucky that these two were who we ended up with as our guides. One more addition: Mahmoud is an excellent, safe driver and knows how to manage the local traffic very well. When coming to Egypt, these are the gentlemen you want to show you around!

Very enjoyable tour with a great tour Guide Amr
On the day we were due to take this tour we were contacted and asked if we could defer to the following evening because the traffic was so bad because of a state visit. This actually suited us so we agreed. We were picked up as arranged the following evening by our tour guide Amr at our hotel. We then went on to pick up another guest, who truned out to be someone we got on well with. Amr was a great tour guide, fun and informative and suggested changes in the original itinerary to ensure we got the best out of our experience. He delivered our evening in a friendly but professional manner which we thoroughly enjoyed. Would definitely recommend this tour and partiuclarly our guide Amr.

The best option
The organization was excellent. Hazem Sayed was attentive to everything from beginning to end and was very kind — so much so that I booked another tour with them. We had Ahmed Achraf as our guide, and he explained all the history in great detail and was attentive to our questions. I 100% recommend them.

Great trip
Our driver picked us up at 6am. It was about 2.5 hrs drive and he stopped along the way for coffee and snacks. It was overall a great drive. The tour was interesting and informative. I highly recommend taking this day trip if you want to experience Alexandria city in a short time.

We had the best time...
We had the best time visiting the Pyramids with Hossam. He is so kind and patient, and his explanations of the sites were fascinating. He really went above and beyond, even acting as our personal photographer so we could just enjoy the view. Thank you, Hossam, for such a wonderful day!

Hisham was an amazing...
Hisham was an amazing driver. He got me to the places, and even though he was driver only, he answered questions. This is okay for a female solo traveler. When you get into the church complex you may find that a guide is helpful so that you don’t miss anything. There are inexpensive guides for hire walking around.

Fantastic tour and tour company
We would highly recommend Emo Tours Egypt - everything about the tour was beyond expectations. Abu Simbel itself was of course fantastic and well worth the long drive, and there are many companies offering tours, so my review is about Emo Tours. Communication from the company was excellent, instant response to questions on WhatsApp. We organised the pick up point (a cruise boat in our case) directly with the company via WhatsApp. The pick up was on time, the car was almost new and very comfortable, and our driver Mohammed was a very good, safe driver. With the comfortable car and very good straight roads we got to Abu Simbel in 3.5 hours including a 15 minute coffee stop (even quicker on the way back). Our guide was very friendly and very knowledgeable and he gave us a lot of very useful and interesting information in perfect English before we entered the temples. Both guide and driver were friendly and courteous. Overall an excellent company and tour, hence highly recommended

Worth the trip - Alexandria from Cairo
Long drive from Cairo to Alexandria but break it up halfway with a coffee or juice - very fast drive on very good roads. Alexandria is beautiful and part of the greco Roman history of Egypt, and as relics ar ebrought up rom the sea will become an increasingly interesting place to visit

Long day but well worth it
It's a long day but well worth it. Starts with a pickup at the hotel, then go on to a bus for close to 3 hours. From there it's a roughly 1 hour ferry to another bus that is about 2 to 3 hours long. They take enough breaks along the way. Once you're in Petra you realize it's all worth the effort.

Really good guide
It was a very interesting experience. Our guide was fantastic. He was great at storytelling and had a lot of knowledge.
He was also very open about his own experiences and opinions and it was a great eye opener for foreigners like us. We visited several churches and a synagogue which carry a massive amount of history.
I am not sure if it’s mentioned in the itinerary, to get to the last church you have to drive through the so called ‘garbage city’ - which is not for everyone- and so was visiting the city of the dead - but we are glad we did that as it’s a fascinating part of Cairo. Highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide was William - very knowledgeable!

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Egypt is home to thousands of years of history. Even if you’re visiting for sun, sea, and sand, the top Egypt day trips make it easy to enjoy the nation’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed wonders. Cairo offers pyramids aplenty, plus mosques, bazaars, museums, and Coptic churches, while Luxor, Aswan, and Abu Simbel are famous for tombs and temples. Alexandria delivers catacombs, gardens, and Greco-Roman ruins. Best of all? A professional driver spares you the nation’s crazy traffic, while a guide lets you skip the research altogether.
