Amazing Museum!
GEM as the name says it was a Gem. After walking through historic places in Hobson, this was a perfect ending, indoor and conclusive of what we saw. Our guide Maniar was in time. We arrived at the museum 15 minutes before it opened. She pointed out structural and architectural details of historic significance before going inside. Loved King Tut galleries. The best for us was the solar boat exhibit. Over all educational tour. I would recommend her.

Nile Dinner Cruise
I had a great experience on the Nile dinner cruise. The food was delicious, the staff onboard were very friendly and welcoming, and the entertainment was really enjoyable. It was a beautiful way to spend an evening in Cairo and experience the Nile at night. Sherif was my guide and also handled my transportation. He was very kind and attentive throughout the experience. As a solo traveler, I really appreciated that he offered to take pictures of me and made sure I felt comfortable and looked after throughout the evening. Overall, I had a lovely evening and would definitely recommend the dinner cruise. If you have Sherif as your guide or for transportation, I definitely recommend him.

Your guide
We had an amazing experience touring the Pyramids of Egypt with our tour guide, Kalifa! He was very friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience so much more enjoyable. He explained the history of the pyramids in a way that was interesting and easy to understand, and he made sure we felt comfortable and had a great time throughout the tour. He was also very helpful and patient with us. Visiting the pyramids was already such a special experience, but having Kalifa as our guide made it even more memorable. I would definitely recommend him to anyone visiting Egypt! 🇪🇬✨

More Than a Food Tour — An Authentic Taste of Cairo
We had such a wonderful experience on our food tour in Cairo with Magy! She was incredibly friendly, upbeat, and genuinely excited to share her culture and introduce us to the incredible variety of Egyptian food.
The tour was packed and involved quite a bit of walking, but Magy did an excellent job keeping everyone organized and making sure we got to each location smoothly. At every stop, she was also very attentive and asked if there was anything else we wanted to try. I really appreciated this flexibility. On many food tours, you’re given a set “menu” and that’s it, but Magy’s attitude was essentially, “If you want to try something else, just let me know,” and she would make it happen. That made the experience feel much more personal.
There were definitely a lot of breads and carbs throughout the tasting, but there was still a great deal of variety with the different side dishes, dips, flavors, and both sweet and savory options. We got to experience foods and flavors that gave us a much better sense of everyday Egyptian cuisine and culture.
I can absolutely see why this is such a popular tour. Magy brought so much energy and enthusiasm to the experience, and she clearly loves sharing another side of Cairo with visitors. We left feeling very full, happy, and like we had experienced something genuinely special. Highly recommend the tour — and especially Magy as a guide!

Great Tour … Excellent Guide Mahmoud Fero
My husband and I took this tour on our first day in Cairo so we could get a “feel” of the city. It was a great experience made more special by the fabulous guide Mahmoud Fero and his friendly driver. Professional, punctual, friendly and informative… highly recommend this tour and particularly this guide. Taken to genuine govt outlets and experienced the famous Khan Al-Khalili Bazaar.. Mahmoud was happy to tailor this tour to our interests.

Enthusiastic guide
Did the half day guided tour of the GEM. Our guide Ghada had spent 6 years studying archeological sites at university and was very knowledgeable. You could tell by her passion for the subject she is doing something that she loves and it was infectious.

Fantastic experience and...
Fantastic experience and our tour guide Ghada was amazing. Very knowledgeable and highly recommended.
We did the all inclusive option so got to see the pyramids as well as camel ride around them, go inside of one, visit a tomb and see the sphinx up close. After that, we went for lunch. A great way to tick off a bucket list tour!

Amazing tour with Mohamed!
Our guide Mohamed was extremely nice and knowledgeable. He brought my wife, daughter and I safely across the Souk and through El-Moez Street where the Mosques are located. Always smiling and ready to help. All and all a very nice experience. We would book Mohamed again!

Great tour & great tour guide
Sahar was a great tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and I learned a lot. She was very helpful and patient throughout the tour. Yasser Salah was a great driver. The pickup was right on time and the car was very clean. I highly recommend Emo Tours and will definitely book again if return to Egypt.

He was very friendly and attentive. He made sure we enjoyed our cruise and took lots of pictures. He was the best part of the tour.

Rania is the Best!
Rania was an absolutely amazing tour guide during our Giza tour with my group of nine friends. She was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and made the history of the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and Saqqara come alive with fascinating stories and insights. She was organized, patient, and made sure everyone in our group had a fantastic experience from start to finish.
Her enthusiasm for ancient Egypt was contagious, and she answered every question with expertise and a smile. Thanks to Rania, our visit wasn’t just a sightseeing tour—it was an unforgettable journey through one of the world’s greatest civilizations. I highly recommend her to anyone visiting Egypt. Thank you, Rania, for making our day so special!

Pyramid tour.
h, got it! Here’s a revised version: “ I went on a group guided tour, and our tour leader was Bassant. She was absolutely fantastic—so knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. She made our visit to the Giza Pyramids and Sphinx really unforgettable. Thank you, Bassant!”
