Excellent driver! Mousa was right on time, super friendly, professional, and helpful. He gave us great suggestions for our trip to Saqqara and even provided snacks and water. You couldn’t ask for more – highly recommended!

    Our driver was on-time, professional, and patient enough to drive us wherever we wanted and wait for us.

    a great day in the pyramids of Giza

    Walid_Z, Jun 2026
    We only had 12 hours in Cairo during a layover, so every minute counted — and Moussa, our driver, exceeded all expectations. We requested an early pickup after landing at 4:50 AM, and without any hesitation, he was already waiting at the airport at 5 AM, greeting us with a big smile. On the way, he kindly stopped for a few minutes to grab us drinks — a small but thoughtful gesture that showed just how much he cared about our comfort. Professional, punctual, and genuinely warm, Moussa is exactly the kind of person who makes you feel completely at ease in an unfamiliar city. He waited with our backpacks safely locked in the car while we explored the Pyramids, giving us complete peace of mind, then picked us up promptly and got us to the Grand Egyptian Museum without a moment wasted. At the end of the day he made sure we were back at the airport with plenty of time to spare. What could have been a stressful whistle-stop layover turned into one of the most memorable experiences of our travels — and that is entirely down to Moussa. Highly, highly recommended! 🙏

    No Show and Ruined My Birthday

    Courtney_B, Mar 2026
    Booked this the day of my birthday and I was in Egypt solo. I had a whole itinerary and activities booked and paid for for the whole day. A few minutes before the scheduled time I messaged the operator about what kind of vehicle they would arrive in so I could walk outside the lobby. I sat for thirty minutes waiting with no response and every driver that pulled up to the hotel turned out to be taxis or other people's Ubers. I tried to reach out to Viator but couldn't get to a phone number and was only prompted to fill out a form. The app wasn't working properly and I wasn't able to contact them until I left. The driver never showed up and if they did it was well after an hour later and I had already called an Uber to try to start making it to my activities that were already booked and paid for. I missed out on money and doing certain things because I was late waiting on this driver. It really ruined my birthday. Wouldn't recommend! Zero communication prior to the start and no communication after. I hope they will process my refund because trying to figure it out and save face after you've planned your birthday in Egypt to the T wasn't on my bingo card. Save your time, tears, and money and book somewhere else!

    Caroline_I, Mar 2026
    It was a great way to visit different parts of Cairo in comfort. We decided on our itinerary and the driver (Mohammed) dropped us off and then waited until we were ready to leave, so no time constraints on our visits. He was good at finding places to park and wait for us, and using WhatsApp to keep in touch was very useful. I would definitely recommend this!

    Excellent car, excellent...

    Luis_M, Feb 2026
    Excellent car, excellent punctuality, excellent driver. Although Slam was our driver for one day, we want to thank him for the attention he gave us. We want to thank Mussa very much. He was very friendly and a great driver, always available for what we asked of him. Thank you very much.

    Experience Cairo as a real local with Moises.

    Antonio_R, Feb 2026
    10/10 Outstanding performance. Moises is by far the most professional, and empathetic person you dont wanna miss out if you ever want to visit Cairo as a real local. Active listening and always eager to accommodate our requests. Superb recs for food spots. Always punctual , he knew where to wait for us, made the days so relaxed and easy for us. We will for sure be back and recommend to all our friends. Words falling short for sure.

    Worth every cent!

    Excellent Personal Driver + Optional Guide

    Tausif_S, Dec 2025
    Excellent private vehicle and driver for your day in Cairo regardless of what your plans are. We also requested an English guide to come along with us to the museum, pyramids and other locations and she was friendly and knowledgeable. Overall comfortable ride, safe driving, and they can take you anywhere you want to go and help you choose where to go.

    ​My experience with Ahmed...

    Katya_D, Dec 2025
    ​My experience with Ahmed Al-Askari was absolutely first-rate, setting a new standard for professional driving service. From start to finish, he was consistently very professional and incredibly considerate. ​Ahmed was highly accommodating, fulfilling all our requests efficiently and cheerfully. His knowledge of the city was truly impressive; he navigated entirely without reliance on maps and consistently chose the most efficient routes, saving us valuable time. ​What stood out the most was his impeccable demeanor. Ahmed is a genuinely polite and happy person, maintaining a positive attitude throughout the trips. Even when faced with challenging traffic situations and drivers who almost caused accidents, he remained completely calm and never once cursed or showed frustration, which speaks volumes about his character and focus. ​Furthermore, his punctuality was flawless. He was always waiting for us in the car and ready to go, meaning we never had to wait for him. We are extremely happy with the high level of service provided. Ahmed Al-Askari is a superb driver, and I highly recommend him to anyone needing reliable, efficient, and pleasant transportation.

    Amazing Driver

    Manika_H, Nov 2025
    AMAZING!! Our driver Islam (Loma) was professional, knowledgeable, and a safe driver. He pointed out landmarks along our drive even though he didn’t have too.he made sure that we were comfortable and felt safe throughout our time with him as our driver. I would 1000% recommend Islam (Loma) and the company! it really helped to kick off our first day in Cairo.

    Great service, did exactly what we wanted

    Eleanor_L, Nov 2025
    The driver took us exactly where we wanted all day and also provided complimentary water. The car was nice and clean, good a/c and the right number of seat belts.

    Great adventure

    Dylan_H, Oct 2025
    The driver was on time with a clean vehicle and pleasant personality. Between his broken english and my nonexistent Arabic we had a great adventure. I would use this comany again.

    Professional Driver

    Sherine_H, Sep 2025
    This was a friendly and polite driver who took me where I wanted to go and showed up on time. I felt safe and happy with his service and his driving.

    Mariah_D, Aug 2025
    Mousa was incredible accommodating and kind. Best driving service I’ve had in another country. Highly recommend.

    Not really what we signed up for

    Eileen_M, Mar 2025
    The driver was friendly and an excellent driver even in Cairo traffic. He did everything we asked of him The reason for my low score is that we booked an English speaking driver and he only spoke a few words of English. We managed with Google translate but it was not the same as being able to ask questions and discuss the best options for the day

    Upper Sky Tours no way

    steven_s, Feb 2025
    I booked my 1 day tour with private car to Dashur, Saqqara & Memphis on 30 Jan. I waited outside my hotel from 0950 as the confirmed pickup time was 1000. At 10.15 I returned inside my hotel & messaged Viator. Received advice from Upper Sky Tours (local operator) that driver was on their way. Driver showed up at 1130. He advised me that he had been allocated my tour 20mins prior to arrival which contradicts the operator's advice. At 1200 we suffered a flat tyre. The vehicle was not owned by the driver. It was a company vehicle & had no spare wheel. A replacement car & driver arrived at 1240. All this wasted time forced me to rush my visits to Dashur & Saqqara to hopefully fit in Memphis but to no avail. I would strongly urge Viator to pursue some monetary compensation for the poor service that I suffered at the hands of the local operator. My day was filled with frustration and anger.

    EdmondLo, Dec 2024
    We are a party of 4 and the operator gave us a small sedan with a poorly functional aircon. I am expecting much better given the description of the service.

    Professional driver and wonderful arrangement by the company

    Suga_K, Nov 2024
    The company kindly arranged that we were accompanied by the same driver for two days. This arrangement was very helpful and smooth in carrying out our sightseeing schedule. Mr Mohammad, professional diver, was personable and we felt like friends, so it was a great experience to visit the sights on the second day with him with whom we had a rapport. Thanks!

    Excellent professional driver

    Suga_K, Nov 2024
    I planned to visit many different places from New Cairo to Dahshur, Sakkara, Memphis, GEM and a restaurant to see sunset in Pyramids area. My plan was so busy but our driver Mr Mohammad, managed it and suggested better plan. We was able to visit all places where we wanted to go. He is an excellent professional driver. Thank you Mr Mohammad. We were able to enjoy fully in Cairo and Gisa!

    Memorable

    Nefeli_S, Oct 2024
    Mahmoud was very kind, very helpful and always with a smile! We thank him for everything!! He helped us visit everything we wanted and suggested us what else we could do

    Must do for Cairo!

    Jessica_L, Aug 2024
    Kareem was an incredible driver for us during a busy day in Cairo. He was patient and listened to all our needs. Kareem helped us decide what we should spend our time on, what would be good food options and was a lovely resource for us during the day. We highly, highly recommend him! Thanks for making our experience so wonderful.

    Great driver, but not the “Best and New” car as advertised

    Kristen_C, Aug 2024
    Our driver Osama was very sweet, kind, and accommodating to our itinerary, taking us all the way from downtown Cairo to First Sixth of October back through Giza and downtown out to New Cairo and lastly back to our hotel. He also pointed out landmarks along the way, offered tips at certain destinations, and helped coordinate with locals when all we had wanted was a quick photo. All compliments to him! Disappointingly, we’re knocking off a couple stars because we did find the marketing for this service ultimately misleading, as the photos advertised are not representative of the sedan that Osama was given to drive us around in. The listing here on Viator says you’ll pay for “Best and New Cars” and it shows photos that give the impression that the car will be a spacious crossover or a midsize sedan-type vehicle in that new condition promised. Instead, our car for the day was indistinguishable from small Ubers we’ve used elsewhere in the city: It was a small BYD sedan with scratches and dents all across the body and stickers and scratched tint across the windows. It didn’t at all match the standard we had expected for our money’s worth — nor did it match the comfort we anticipated, with both my husband and I being 6ft tall and requiring a more modern-sized sedan. Nevertheless, the little BYD did get the job done -- and as we said, Osama was wonderful to have with us for the day. Just be mindful of what you’re paying for when you book… If the type of sedan truly matters to you, you’d best look elsewhere or just Uber to ensure the best use of your money.

    Exploring the New Administrative Capital

    Sabine_P, Feb 2024
    We went on an exploration tour with our fantastic driver Ahmed. No need to tell, he was on time at our hotel to fetch my husband, our friends and me. We had decided we wanted to visit the new administrative capital - my husband is a professional photographer and wanted to see this special sight. We couldn't find a fix tour so we got our "private car" and that was a wonderful decision. Ahmed was patient every time we wanted to stop somewhere to take pictures, he tried to find good places and was very supportive with several guards so we could take even better pictures. He found us a table at the food quarter and introduced us to a delicious dish called Kuscheri. We climbed the huge islamic headquarters together and visited the large new coptic church. Still it is not allowed to take pictures in a lot of places, but what we have seen we will carry in our hearts.

    Good trip

    Sara_s, Feb 2024

    Unforgettable day

    Constantino_S, Feb 2026
    Our driver Loma made the experience unforgettable. He took us to where we asked and worried at all times that we were okay. Very friendly and close. Yes, we understood each other in English (bungled by us)
