Best tour guide!!!!
We had such an amazing time with Ayoub! He showed us all of the Pyramids, the sphinx, tombs, had excellent knowledge about the history behind every aspect, and gave us ample time to take photos. He also took photos and videos of us. He's very easygoing and such a great guide. Would highly recommend!

Had a nice time this...
Had a nice time this evening. Walking around the bazaar and thr old city were nice. Be warned the everyone wants to sell you something. Just politely say no thank you. Our guide Khalid was super friendly. I really enjoyed the felucca ride on the Nile.

An unforgettable and unmissable day trip.
We had a truly wonderful time on this trip. Everything ran smoothly and super efficiently, even though it was a very long day! All the sites we visted were amazing - especially Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings. Our guide, Dina, was exceptional - knowledgeable, informative, helpful and very pleasant. Unforgetteable!

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.

Amazing family day trip on the All Inclusive Package to Pyramids & GEM
We booked the all-inclusive package for us & our 10 year old daughter, during a day trip to Cairo from Sharm El Sheik. Communication from our guide, MARCO was brilliant from the start & he messaged me on WhatsApp the night before to confirm arrangements. Having done so, I cannot image doing a trip like this without a guide & driver. It made everything so much smoother, without worrying about where to go, how to navigate ticket sites & beat the crowds. MARCO was extremely knowledgeable & very personable, making our tour interactive as well involving our daughter as much as possible. She especially enjoyed learning how to read the hieroglyphics! We started the morning at the Great Pyramids & Sphinx, then had a great spot for lunch picked out by MARCO where we tried some traditional Egyptian food & had a personalised experience in a local essence shop, which was an extra treat. We then had the rest of our time visiting the GEM & the Tutankhamun exhibition, before stopping off to get a glimpse of the River Nile. MARCO managed to fit so much into our day trip & really maximised the time without making it feel rushed. It really was a fantastic day trip, well worth it. Pick up & drop off from the airport was prompt & smooth, our driver AYMAN had it all in hand, so we didn't have to worry about missing our flight back. AYMAN was very polite & courteous, always there promptly when we were ready to move on, keeping us well stocked in water & chocolate too! Both MARCO & AYMAN provided an excellent, friendly & personable experience. We will definitely recommend the all-inclusive package to friends, as it just takes the hassle out of everything, meaning we only have great memories & not the stress that navigating these things can sometimes take. We would not have been able to do it without either of them. Great tour! Thank you.

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.

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.

Abu Simbel private car transfer
It suited us that the excursion started at 7:00, not very early like most tours. The drive took about 3 hours and 30 minutes. The car was clean and the driver drove carefully. We spent two hours at the location and the driver dropped us off in front of the desired restaurant in Aswan. I recommend this tour, the price and service were very good; other tours were much more expensive, even when I tried to arrange it through the accommodation owner. I was a little worried whether the driver would pick us up at the accommodation, because it was written somehow vaguely on the website, i.e. some meeting points are mentioned.

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

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.
