I fell in love with Egypt.

AOI_O, Mar 2026

I really recommend it!!! I had very good memories. The driver and Fuad, the Japanese guide, were just nicer. If you are a Japanese watching this review, I would love to have a Japanese guide. First of all, I was unable to get to the meeting point because I had taken the wrong taxi, but as soon as I got in touch, he came to pick me up. Even things that are not included in the tour can be granted if you ask. It's nice to see if it's worth the price when you want to shop. It was my first trip to Egypt, so I was prepared to go with the pickpockets, but there was no sign of that at all, so I was safe to go. We spent more cash than we had expected because we had trouble getting museum tickets online and had to get them instead, and the option of a Japanese guide was paid later, so I think it would be a good idea to bring more cash.

It was a very satisfying tour. I was looking for a tour that would give me a thorough explanation of the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum with a Japanese guide, and I found this tour and joined it. The tour will be run by a driver and a Japanese speaking guide. The English-speaking driver first picked us up at the hotel, and we were joined on the way by our Japanese-speaking guide, Tameru. Tameru is a truly amazing guide and I would highly recommend anyone who books this tour to be named. In December 2025, he was also appointed as a guide for famous YouTubers, and he was knowledgeable and experienced. Thanks to Tamer, it was one of the most memorable days of my trip. First, we headed to the pyramids of Giza, where they showed us around efficiently while keeping the highlights in mind, so we were able to enjoy a fulfilling sightseeing experience even in a limited time. They took pictures very well and I was able to enjoy the camel experience that I had hoped for for for a short time. I also bought an extra ticket to visit the inside of the pyramid, but the inside is quite a steep and physical journey, so I recommend it for those who are confident in their physical strength. After that, as soon as we left the exit, the driver came to meet us and took us to the Grand Egyptian Museum. Since it was the first day of Ramadan and the museum was closing early, they rescheduled lunch for later visits, which was a great consideration as we also wanted to take a closer look at the museum. In the limited time we had in the museum, it was really fun and time passed so quickly, thanks to Tamer's wealth of knowledge and clear, humorous commentary. Later, my interest expanded to the point where I watched and researched Egypt-related YouTube videos with my family, and it was a learning experience. After the tour, we had lunch at an Egyptian buffet restaurant, and then stopped by a shop where we could make hieroglyphic accessories and a spice shop as they asked us if there were any souvenir shops we wanted to visit. They don't have to stop by if there is no particular hope. I bought a pendant top with my name written in hieroglyphics and a T-shirt. At the spice shop, I bought mixed spices and dates to go with meat and fries. When shopping, Tameru was able to get between us and the people at the store to help us make the purchase at a price we were happy with. At the end, Tameru and I parted ways, but he was such a knowledgeable and helpful guide that I would definitely ask him to do it the next time I visit Egypt. I didn't have much opportunity to talk to the driver while sightseeing, but he came to pick me up smoothly at the right time and I was able to travel comfortably in a seven-seater car. For those who want a thorough tour of the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum with a Japanese-language guide, this tour is a genuine recommendation.

As it turns out, I'm very satisfied! They kept in touch with us via the whats app until the tour started, so we were able to welcome them on the day with peace of mind. The local guides who spoke Japanese were very knowledgeable and explained things everywhere. It has given me an insight into the history of Egypt, the details of Tutankhamun and the greatness of Ramses the Great. The local restaurant I went into for lunch was also very good in the buffet format. Is there anywhere else you'd like to drop in with a little extra time at the end? I asked him if he wanted to go to a shop selling alcohol because he wanted to drink alcohol, and he agreed. I'm so glad I made the reservation!
