We had a wonderful...

We had a wonderful experience on the Cairo night tour. The combination of Khan El Khalili, the mosque, dinner, and the felucca ride made for a memorable evening and was a great way to experience Cairo. A special thanks to Ahmed Pasa, who was an excellent guide. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and welcoming throughout the tour. We particularly appreciated his flexibility in accommodating our last-minute request to change the tour time, which made things much easier for us. He explained everything clearly, kept the tour relaxed and enjoyable, and made sure we had a great experience. Highly recommended, and special thanks again to Ahmed for making the evening so enjoyable!

Amazing

I had such an amazing experience on my tour with Mona! She was absolutely incredible. She really knows her stuff and is so knowledgeable about everything we saw. She made the entire experience fun, interesting, and unforgettable. Mona is also genuinely such a sweetheart. She was so kind, welcoming, and made me feel comfortable the entire time. I actually enjoyed my first tour with her so much that I booked a second tour with her! That says everything. 😂❤️ If you’re booking a tour, I 100% recommend Mona. You won’t regret it!

Alexandria Day Trip From Cairo

Day trip to Alexandria from Giza (Car & driver & audio guide) booked an english speaking guide laterguide later on

I had booked a day trip for Aug 31, 2026 from Giza to Alexandria (only car and driver with audio guide). I was apprehensive and was not sure what we were up for. As soon as I had finished my booking the tour operator recommended that having a tour guide is beneficial and I decided to book an english speaking guide. I was relieved when we were contacted the day before with details of the driver etc. The car ( large 12 seater vehicle) with driver came to pick us from our hotel. Our guide met our group in Alexandria and took us around. Unfortunately I can't remember his name however he was excellent. We had a wonderful trip. The guide took us to some places which were not on the list. We visited the Royal Palace green house and it was beautiful. There was an entrance ticket however it was worth it. At the end of the tour, we ended up booking our lunch through our guide. The restaurant by the sea was very good and so was the food. We also met a wonderful young couple from Turkey and we had a great time together. I never used to write reviews however I now realize it is important to provide a review so that future tourists are well informed and not apprehensive. We had a wonderful time. I would book them again without hesitation. I highly recommend tour guides. Mahmoud my contact was excellent in clarifying the details and making our visit a memorable one. Thanks Mahmoud.

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.

Great solo experience!

Whole experience went so smoothly! Driver was prompt and safe, the car was new, clean, and comfortable. Meena, my guide, was knowledgeable and helpful, helped me get great pics, and was super flexible. Whole tour was whatever I wanted it to be. We spent as much time at each pyramid as I wanted, and I appreciated her insights into Egyptian history. I am happy I booked this tour, as a solo traveler it was everything I hoped it would be.

Osama and Moody changed my life!

Osama is a professional,knowledgeable,respectful,responsible,kind, genuine,gentleman. He made my tour even more magnificent. I felt like I belonged. I felt like family. Please ask for Osama. Moody my driver was professional and kind. A very reliable and respectful man. I wish they were truly my blood. Osama explained the ancient Egyptian history and everybody knows him and always has positive things to say about him. I felt safe as a solo female traveler and they both were a true genuine gentleman. I am still in awe. Osama took over 50 pictures and taught me how to pose. He also connected me with wonderful local spots. They were quality spaces. I fell in love with Egypt!

First Class Experience

Our guide Essam was the best tour guide I have had in my life. Patient, with expert knowledge, he packed information into small bites so that we could understand and remember what he taught. His enthusiasm for the subject was infectious. Our driver, too, Ayman, was great ( and fun!), pointing out the best spots to take photos. Very careful driver. We felt very safe.

SanduniRuvindi_L, Jun 2026

Excellent tour!

I'm so glad I booked this tour, the whole process from booking and coordination until dropoff was hassle-free! First of all, I was in a bit of a time crunch so I mentioned that I cannot handle any delays, and as discussed pickup was on time. Pickup and dropoff is available from your hotel, which is really convenient! I'm especially thankful for Ahmed, my driver, who was friendly and flexible enough to fit my needs and interests. He also knew about the history and shared interesting facts along the journey. It was good to have someone to drive you around, I'm not new to solo traveling but I see now that it would have been difficult to find my way back to Cairo if I had just relied on Ubers. Towards the end of the tour we really bonded and he was even telling me about his family :)) <3 p.s: i see in some reviews that they were FORCED to visit shops and restaurants, but this was not the case for me. I simply said that I'm not interested.

Private Tour to Whales Valley & Wadi El Rayan Waterfalls in El Fayoum from Cairo

JamesI_M, Jun 2026

Desert, Dunes, Whales, and Waterfalls!

One of the best tours I’ve experienced in years! But please be cautioned if you are prone to motion sickness or cannot tolerate vehicular risk. Yes, you see whale skeletons in the desert, Lake Qarun, and a pretty albeit polluted waterfall. Yes, you get served a delightful meal in a desert camp (glamp) sight while feral cats wait to pick through your leftovers. But by far the most exciting part of this tour for me was the vehicle safari. Windy, bumpy, not for the faint of heart, but riding in the back while an experienced driver surfs a Land Cruiser down dunes is not an experience to be missed. I also got a chance to skate surf down a dune at the end. Accept it: you will probably wipe out. 😊 My guide was Fares and my drivers were Yusuf and Mohammed.Thanks guys!

Terri_V, Apr 2026

So well worth it!

Having a skilled private driver (Mohamed) and knowledgeable guide (Wagih) made a huge difference in what we saw and learned. We covered the main churches, synagogue, citadels, and mosques plus other sites. Appreciated their flexibility, they accommodated our pacing/request to go explore and we never felt rushed. Dreaded the hassle to see all the sights on our own so we’re so glad we booked this tour.
