Amazing Abu Simbel
Our tour to Abu Simbel was unforgettable, all thanks to Mustafa. He is an exceptionally warm, educated, and passionate guide with a profound knowledge of the temple's history.
What made it extra special was the wonderful teaching material he shared with us via WhatsApp during the tour, giving us great resources to keep learning. If you want a guide who truly brings ancient history to life, Mustafa is the absolute best!

Cairo Night Tour with Hana
I originally booked this tour because most of my activities in Cairo were during the day, and I really wanted to experience what the city was like at night. Due to circumstances in the city, the tour had to be moved to the following evening, but Hana communicated well about the change and it was not an issue.
I definitely recommend booking this tour with Hana. She picked me up from my hotel and made navigating Cairo at night very easy. We visited a beautiful mosque and explored Khan el-Khalili, and seeing Cairo at night was absolutely beautiful. As a solo traveler, I really appreciated that Hana took photos for me and would also point out good photo spots along the way.
One of my favorite parts was shopping in the market. Hana took us to a quality handmade store as well as a fixed-price store with very reasonable prices. I was able to buy souvenirs for my entire family for under $20, which I really appreciated because it took away the stress of negotiating. The food included on the tour was also really good.
I had also been looking for a personalized cartouche bracelet, and Hana recommended someone who was able to make one for me at a very reasonable price. I ended up getting exactly what I wanted, so I’m especially grateful to her for that recommendation.
Hana dropped me back off at my hotel at the end of the night and communicated well throughout the experience. She is a wonderful person who really goes above and beyond, and I had a great time on the tour. I would absolutely recommend booking with her, especially if you’re traveling solo or want to experience Cairo at night.

Amazing day in Alexandria
We booked the all inclusive experience
We had an amazing day with Reem in Alexandria. She was kind and very knowledgeable and you could tell she was very happy proud and really loved Egyptian culture especially Alexandria.
She was accommodating with our requests and patient. Always offering to help us with pictures and where it would look better.
She even bought us a few Egyptian snacks for us to try and leave with a nice memory.
Our driver walid was very helpful and treats with some much kindness and patience. From putting a scarf in the window for the sun so we could be comfortable, buying us mangos in a market to his absolute experience driving the busy streets he made us feel safe .
Thank you both!!
The lunch offer by the your company was alright .the fish was tasty but the portion was quite small, one small salad for 3 adults and it did not included any drinks.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Egyptian Experience
We had an absolutely fantastic experience visiting the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx and the Grand Egyptian Museum. The tour was very well organised, informative and enjoyable from beginning to end.
A special thank-you to our wonderful tour guide, Halawani, who truly made the experience memorable. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, patient and professional. His passion for Egyptian history was clear, and he brought the stories and history of the ancient Egyptians to life in such an interesting and engaging way.
Halawani was also very attentive and made sure we were comfortable throughout the day. He gave us plenty of time to explore, take photographs and enjoy the incredible sights without ever feeling rushed. He was always happy to answer our questions and went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful experience.
The Pyramids and Sphinx were breathtaking, and the Grand Egyptian Museum was equally impressive. Having such an excellent guide like Halawani made these incredible places even more special.
Thank you so much, Halawani, for your kindness, knowledge and for making our day so enjoyable and unforgettable. You were an excellent guide, and we would highly recommend you to anyone visiting Cairo.
This was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Egypt. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Highly Recommend
Our guide Wagih was a very good guide. I enjoyed everthing about the tour. The information provided was the perfect amount of information. We went on a Saturday and it turns out that was the best time to go. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who has an interest in the Coptic Churches.

Best way to experience the old city
Great experience with Ahmed exploring the old city and heart and culture of Cairo. They even picked me up from GEM which saved me a lot of time. From the feluca ride at sunset to the shawarma at the end was wonderful. Ahmed was very knowledgeable about his city. Also other members of the group were very nice.

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!

Excellent tour as described
We had an excellent guide who was very knowledgeable and went into detail about the sights we visited. A stop was made at an alabaster factory, which seems like a tourist trap, but it was low pressure; overall the tour was hassle free, as described, and very enjoyable.

If you want to get the...
If you want to get the best from Cairo in one day, this is the tour to go for! Our guide Amira was excellent! She’s an Egyptologist and was very knowledgable. She was one of the best guides we had during our time in Egypt and would recommend the tour with her to everyone. Our driver Mohammed was very good and polite as well. He came about 15 minutes before the scheduled time and drove us safely through the crazy traffic in Cairo and back to our hotel in Giza. We booked just Car and Guide and there were no problems with buying the tickets on-site. Even in high season there were no queues and you can pay by card everywhere, except the 50E£ car fee to the Citadel.

An unforgetabble day in Fayoum
This experience is relaxed, personal, and driven by Ahmed’s bright, engaging personality. From the start, his energy sets the tone for the entire day. He is warm, upbeat, and genuine, which makes the experience feel less like a tour and more like an adventure shared with a friend.
The day is not rushed or overly structured. Ahmed encourages curiosity, conversation, and laughter, creating an easy, joyful atmosphere while still sharing meaningful context about Fayoum, the desert, and the whale fossils. The drive from Cairo becomes part of the experience, filled with good energy and connection.
Visiting the whale fossils was fascinating. Lunch at a Bedouin rest area in the desert is a true highlight, offering a peaceful break in a beautiful setting.
Travelers should know that much of what makes this experience special is Ahmed himself. His positivity, sense of humor, and genuine hospitality leave you feeling energized and cared for throughout the day. If you value a guide with a vibrant spirit who creates a memorable, personable experience, this tour is an excellent choice.

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.
