Highly Recommend for Short Trip

Ankit_S, Dec 2024
Guide was knowledgeable, flexible, and friendly. Very pleasant experience overall. We were able to see all the pyramids, take a camel ride, eat at Khufu’s (pre book that separately), and see the pyramid. All in 4-5 hours. Great half day trip

Lucky dip. You're experience depends on which guide you get(and ask to skip the oil making stop!)

Our driver was great, our guide was either naturally quiet/ shy, didnt give us much information compared to the other tours we did around Luxor. Felt like if we had another guide i would have learnt alot more. We were not explained how long we had at each place or the layout of the day, and also were not given free time to explore on our own like the other tours. None the less we still seen the pyramids, sphinx, and went to some great spots for photos, and had a delicious buffet lunch. After lunch we seen how they made paper out of papyrus which was good, the people were not pushy and we felt if we didnt want to purchase anything we could leave no hassles. This was not the case at the stop after this where they show you about how they make oils and perfumes. They didnt explain or show us anything about how they were done, rather just gave us a sample smell of about 5 of them, told us how to use it and then asked which ones we wanted to buy. I told him 3 times we were not interested in buying and he kept insisting and pushing, to make it easier i just purchased an oil i had no interest in to leave($15usd) when to my surprise they then took us to another section about tea's and herbs! Same deal, no information on how it was made, clearly not interested in showing you anything rather than just making a sale at any means neccessary. Wish we skipped this stop, completely pointless.

This tour was amazing, primarily because of our awesome tour guide Ms Eman Mostafa! She has SO much knowledge about Egyptian history. We didn't even feel the need to visit the Egyptian museum during our trip because she provided us with so much useful information with pictures to go along with it. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in a cool way to see/learn about the Pyramids and Egyptian history generally.

Wael was a tour guid and Mohamed was a driver for us. They are so kind and excellent. Wael's english is easily understandable for non native people like Japanese. This tour is reasonable in terms of price. When you visit Pyramidas, Sphinx and place you can see them from a distance, it is possible to visit them around on your own but I can highly recommend you to join this kind of tour because they are a bit apart and you need to seek a transportation and have troublesome negotiations. Especially for visitors in summer season or with small kids like me.

What a great experience. It was wonderful. EMO tours did a wonderful job. The guide that we had Tito was absolutely fabulous. He had so much information to share, but he was friendly, polite and caring. Can recommend him. Sakkie
