3 beautiful places and Mustafa complementing the whole gem picture!
It was a unique experience. I chose a self-guided half-day tour to visit the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Valley of the Queens. The driver, Mustafa, arrived promptly at my hotel in a car as immaculate as he was. As he drove, he clearly and enthusiastically described the beautiful sights we saw along the way. In addition to answering typical tourist questions, and despite being hired solely to drive, Mustafa is the kind of person who sincerely shares his culture and philosophy of life, which was another treasure of a day I thoroughly enjoyed.

5 star one day Giza tour experience
We had an excellent one-day tour of the Giza Pyramid Complex and the Grand Egyptian Museum. Our guide, Essam, was fantastic; friendly, very knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about his work as a professor of Egyptian archaeology. He explained the history in a clear and engaging way while also sharing many fascinating details that made the experience even more memorable. The tour was well organized and enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommended!

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.

Ayoub was the best!
Ayoub made our visit to the Great Pyramids, the Sphinx, our camel ride, and lunch at 9 Pyramids Lounge an unforgettable 5-star experience. He was attentive, informative, and incredibly thoughtful from start to finish.
He reached out the evening before our trip to introduce himself and provide a detailed itinerary for the day, which made everything feel organized and stress-free. His driver, Mina, met us at our hotel on time, and once we arrived at the Giza complex, Ayoub was there ready to welcome us. That’s when the fun truly began!
It was another magical day in Egypt. Ayoub shared great information, made sure we were comfortable, and helped create such a memorable experience. He is also an amazing photographer and captured beautiful moments for us throughout the day. I highly recommend Ayoub to anyone visiting the pyramids!

Easy, Well-Planned Day to Abu Simbel
Communication was smooth from start to finish, and everything was well organized. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable, making the visit to Abu Simbel even more enjoyable. The van transfer was comfortable, and the hotel pickup made everything very convenient.

Tour to Alexandria from Cairo, full day
Great tour! I recommend, it started bad with the driver showing up at 6:45 a.m. instead of 6:00 a.m. But, after that everything went great. Adam, the driver was very courteous and attentive, his English dough, was poor. Ahmed, the tour guide was excellent, very knowledgeable, courteous, attentive at all of our needs.

The best Duo for an amazing day!
We had a fantastic day visiting all the pyramids! Ibrahim Allam was the best, if you have him as your guide count it as your lucky day, he is extremely enthusiastic about the pyramids and the history of Egypt, it truly rubs off on you, any questions we had he answered very well and explained everything we were seeing in great detail, I cannot fault him at all, genuinely a lovely guy too! Our driver Haytham was also fantastic and extremely attentive, this duo is unstoppable, as I said if you are lucky enough to have them then get ready for a day to remember!

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.

A Whale of a Time!
We are so glad for this tour with Emo Tours. We had a whale of a time amid awesome ancient seabeds and marine fossils, learning about the geological history of the sea-desert, and finding saltwater waterfalls and lakes amid endless sand dunes. The desert campsite and lunch was a brief yet pleasant experience of desert life, and a welcome respite from Cairo’s urban sprawl. Thanks Fahd(guide) and Adil(driver) for this holiday-within-a-holiday experience!

We had an incredible and very packed day exploring Luxor’s West Bank. The itinerary included the Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Queens and several other fascinating stops.
Both the driver and the guide were great. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, sharing rich historical context and answering all our questions with patience and enthusiasm. The pace was full but well-organised, allowing us to see so much in just one day without feeling too rushed.

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!

I would highly recommend
Our guide, Isaac, and driver, Hamza, were both friendly and welcoming throughout the tour. Isaac was especially knowledgeable and incredibly accommodating, making sure we felt comfortable and informed at every stop.
We explored the rich history of Coptic and Islamic Cairo, visiting remarkable sites like the the Hanging Church and Mosque of Muhammad Ali. Isaac also kindly helped us capture memorable moments by taking photos along the way.

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.
