A very good experience overall, visit to al Mostafa mosque, cathedral and the al sahaba mosque, not forgetting the visit to old Market shopping. Great products reasonable prices. Nada the young beautiful tour guide was amazing, and the driver (sorry forgot your name)
Highly recommended for those who haven't yet experienced this.

It's was good, the guide showed and explained all the places. one bad side that she was on the phone at all the time. Also she just took us for two shops (that probably she get commission).

Guide was vey friendly and took us to the first Mosque that was locked up as we arrived !! Next 2 buildings were fine, she was informative and the buildings are suprisingly very yong 2010 ish !!. But then on each visit to the Store next to the Al Shaba Mosque, on to another store and then to a cafe. It is so obvious that on each visit a premium is added to the prices for the benefit of, you know who. We were mug enough to pay... Don't get ripped off ! We did !

The tour guide was nice. The tour was ok. We saw a church, a mosque, went to an indoor market, went to an outdoor market. That's it...... All beautiful. Felt safe, the car that picked us up and dropped us off was brand new, very clean. In general it was nice but nothing exciting. I would do it alone, better to have a guide.

Amazing day in Cairo, we saw the pyramids, the GEM and much more.
The guide was great and he took good care of us.

Worst tour experiencd I have ever had.
Pickup was from hote, received a message to say driver was in parking area. He was waiting in a school car par down the road and sent a photo of a red car, just the door
and roof, no license plate. I had my hotel call his number as I was a solo traveller and worried why he had not come to the hotel after the receptionist spoke with Wael ,he came to hotel.
He told me the tour was just for me, VIP treatment! The car was old, holes in the dashboard and scratched paintwork.
First stop at the mosque, unable to access as it was locked, on to 2nd stop the Church, dropped outside told he was not allowed in as it was not his religion and maybe i could join another tour party inside and get information that way! 3rd stop Catholic church same thing, he waited in the car.
Final stop, old Egypt, taken to get appropriate clothes to wear to be able to go inside the mosque but no one inside. Told the mosque was probably closed for prayer.
I wandered around for 10 minutes took a few photos and met up with Wael, passed the Mosque on the way back to the car and people were going in. Managed to get tge approoriate clothing and went inside accompanied with Wael this time.
Only inside 2 mimutes, informed men pray in the main room, women in the room behind.
I was then dropped back outside my hotel.
I would never recommend Sharm Gate excursions, I would have been better off getting a taxi to each venue, it would have cost less and had a better car.
Scored a 1, Wael was a nice man, polite, but definetely not a tour guide.

Fantastic experience. The driver was kind and helpful in explaining the various sites visited. The experience itself made me feel like a local.

Visit to the Mosques and Church was beautiful. Guide was informative. Time to shop and look around old Market was great.

Great experience! We had a lovely guy called Eissa who assisted us with our experience. He was very informative and attentive during the whole experience. I would recommend!
Good communication
On time
Nice small group

I requested Russian speaking guide for the tour and when the bus arrived it turned out the guide is English speaking. They tried to fix the problem promising to send Russian speaking guide immediately to the site but he only guided them in the Christian church. The English speaking guide was very professional and did her best to ensure we understand what she says through Google translate. But this is absolutely not what we paid for and the overall impression was spoiled. Apparently they do not have a Russian speaking guide but kept it hiding to just earn their money with such a poor service. Unfortunately I bought another tour to a Museum from the same operator which was a complete fail as well.

An amazing insight to some of the history behind Sharm el sheikh. Our guide Eissa was amazing, with his knowledge. He made us feel comfortable straight away. Friendly, knowledgeable and with a good sense of humour. I would highly recommend this tour.

Great excursion. Communication with the company and later our guide was brilliant they let us know exactly what was happening with pick up etc.
Farouk was our guide and he was great, his English was very good and he was very knowledgeable. We saw the Al mustafa mosqur and were able to go inside (head/shoulder coverings were provided where needed). We also went inside the heavenly cathedral, both were stunning.
We had an hour and a half to browse around the old market before being dropped back at the hotel.
Would absolutely recommend this tour.

Hawary was our guide and spoke perfect english. He was very knowledgeable about Egyptian history and we visited two mosques and one church where interesting explanations were given. We were taken to the old market but as midday not open, advised that night time is better to visit. We were also shown border where Asia meets Africa. Thoroughly enjoyable.
Natalia_M, Jun 2025
I recently took a city tour, and it was a fantastic way to explore the main sights and get a feel for the local culture. The tour was well-organized and started on time, with comfortable transportation. Rania our tour guide was knowledgeable and made the experience both informative and enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour.

Informative and fun trip. It was relaxed and didn't feel under any pressure. Our guide Saif was brilliant- helped to barter in the shops in the old market and explained everything as we went along.

This sightseeing tour wasn’t exactly what we were expecting. The description says it’s a guided tour, but it really was just a driver driving us around from place to place dropping us off, giving us time to explore and then getting back and driving to the next spot. The driver was telling us things along the way as we were driving he would point things out, but he stayed in the car while we got out at each stop. While we were at the Catholic church, we saw another tour guide, giving a similar tour to other groups, and the guide was with them telling them about the church so we wondered why our guide just stayed in the car. Two of the stops were just shopping areas mall type places but the time we were allotted for those stops wasn’t really even enough time for us to browse the shops if we had wanted to, so we basically just quickly walked through and it was already time to go back to the car. The other two stops were a Catholic Church and a mosque. We thought we would be allowed to go in the mosque as that’s what the description says, but our driver told us we would not be allowed to go in because we had to be covered from head to toe even though we let the driver know that we had brought things to cover up, he still said we could not go in so we were confused by that. This is a tour I would skip.

Absolutely amazing! We all loved it. The tour included a range of sightseeing activities that were fantastic. Our tour guide, Malika, went above and beyond to take care of us. I would definitely recommend this tour and this company for other excursions. They respond very quickly and are always happy to assist with any questions or concerns.
