Excellent experience

sue_j, Mar 2026
Sharm el Sheikh Airport was a bit chaotic with miserable staff. Be prepared to go through security. The bags were thrown through the scanner and belongings fell onto the floor. Apart from that it was a really smooth transfer into Cairo where we were met by our driver who took us to the pyramids. The guide met us there and we had a fantastic day. Take plenty of refreshments as it's a busy full on tour. We had a break in the museum where there is a café

Great day at GEM and Pyramids

Paul_R, Mar 2026
Excellent tour very well organised.Communication before departure excellent All drivers and tour guide Ali made the day memorable. Would not look at any other operator if I were you

A great Tour withe a private guide

Holger_A, Feb 2026
We toured with Hannah, a very friendly and welcoming egyptologist with huge experience and knowledge about Egyptian and Arabian history. We paid extra for the entrance to the new Grand Egyptian Museum, which was worth it. We learned a lot during our tour. Our driver was Ahmed, who drove us safely and swift through the dense Cairo traffic. The Tour was well organized and we managed to have more than enough time for each stop. Since we came from Sharm el Sheik, we had to get up very early to catch the first flight to Cairo, but even that didn't tamper the experience. We can fully recommend taking this tour with a private guide, that has so much knowledge about all the sights and artefacts you can observe.

Excellent

Narcis_C, Feb 2026
Amazing day!the guide full of knowledge,we enjoyed the Piramyds and Sphinx tour,museum,many good shops and a perfect lunch!finishing with an amazing sunset with feluca on the Nile!!perfect day

Awesome 1 day tour that created great memories

David_T, Jan 2026
A long day, but what a fantastic experience. Ali our guide was so knowledgeable and relaxed and fun with it. Seeing ancient wonders of such size was mind boggling. Well organised from start to finish and a truly memorable day. Midday food was plentiful and very tasty meaning we were set up for the afternoon. Transport was good but a little squashed even for only 3 tourists, Ali our driver was very very good in a crowded and chaotic city!! Would highly recommend from start to finish but it is a very long day so be prepared.

Smooth, Safe, and Worth Every Penny

Joe_B, Dec 2025
Well-organised excursions from start to finish. The organisation was impeccable. From the moment I booked the trip, I was welcomed with a text message. This set the tone for the rest of the experience, with almost instant responses to any questions I had. My airport driver, Ali Ahmed, was extremely professional, punctual, and friendly. He smoothly passed me on to a representative who explained exactly how to obtain my boarding pass. Upon arrival in Cairo, Mahmoud Jamica welcomed me with a bottle of water and a warm smile. He navigated the busy Cairo streets quickly and safely. We then picked up my day tour guide, Basem Tarek, who explained everything from Egyptian history to cultural insights. His warm and relaxed attitude made the experience even more enjoyable. The combination of Basem’s guiding and Mahmoud’s driving made the trip completely stress-free—no waiting, no queues, and no pressure. Everything ran like a well-oiled machine. The day ended perfectly, with plenty of time to relax before the return flight, followed by another professional taxi ride back to the hotel. It was excellent value for money, and I highly recommend this trip. As a solo traveller, having a full day where everything was taken care of allowed me to simply enjoy the sights and exhibits, which was a wonderful bonus.

Amazing say

tracey_C, Dec 2025
What a great experience. Everything was well organised and the communication was excellent from start to finish. Would recommend for everyone to do this trip if you visiting Egypt. Tour guide was great and our driver navigated the roads like a professional rally driver!! Boy, some scary drivers!!!

Good Tour

CARLOIGNAZIO_C, Nov 2025
The trip to the pyramids with an Italian-speaking guide was a bit disappointing, but he more than made up for it with the GEM tour. The Nile at sunset was unforgettable. The driver, Mohamed Hegazy, was exceptional!!”

Great day out

Sophie_W, Nov 2025
Great day out to see the pyramids! Well organised and both our taxi driver and tour guide were friendly and knowledgeable. Only downside is the tour finished and we had 6 hours until our flight so had a long wait at the airport. Our taxi driver recognised we had a long wait and offered to take us anywhere we wanted, we stopped off at the Nile for a photo. But overall loved seeing the pyramids and being welcomed by tour guide and taxi driver

Had a lovely day trip to...

Regan_S, Nov 2025
Had a lovely day trip to Cairo! Every step of the process was smooth - Ahmed was super helpful in providing us with the info before going and Shima and Mohamed made sure we had a great day in Cairo. Really appreciate all the info they provided and all they did to make the day special. Definitely recommend this tour! It is a very long day but so worth it. We had to pay a bit extra for the flights due to limited availability which was fine and worth it to us. However our flight back was late as nothing earlier was available and we had time to kill at the Cairo airport - not a big deal for us but just remember to bring something to do! Thank you!

To flights available from Sharm El Sheikh to Luxor or Cairo

Leonie_S, Oct 2025
Both experience were cancelled, when you advertise excursions you then have another company that provides the outings and on both Luxor and Cairo there were no flights available. You should say that excursions are subject to availability and not confirm a booking and take money until flights are secured. You made my family and I feel really disappointed as we wanted to see some history whilst in Egypt. We will not be booking anything with you again.

Great tour and company

Lorina_H, Oct 2025
Highly recommend this tour, the driver Mohamed and tour guide Shahd were very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Shahd knew an immense knowledge of Egyptology and was amazing. Mohamed was so curious and friendly and could not do enough for us. It is a long day but worth every minute. Great communication with the other Mahammad . When organising the trip. Never failed to answer questions and messages. If going to see the Giza pyramids from Sharm this is the company.

Had a great time and...

John_R, Aug 2025
Had a great time and enjoyable trip made by mr Ali who was our tour guide for the day with his knowledge and experience, made the day fun with also our driver for the day

Great experience, knowledgeable guide

Graham_D, Apr 2024
Fully guided, picked up on time and easily by all transport. Great guide with loads of knowledge and a sense of humour. Easy to understand and showed all the best bits!

Excellent day, excellent guide, excellent value, excellent organisation.

Matthew_T, Dec 2023
Excellent experience. This looks expensive but it is worth every penny and excellent value when you think about what you get. We did this trip in December with Aly as our guide and drivers Mahmoud and Ahmed all were superb. We were collected from our hotel in sharm just after 3am which is a very early start but that meant we were at the pyramids at about 7.30, just as they opened and before all the crowds. We had two kids with us (6 and 8) did didn't want to do the tour that got us back to sharm at midnight. They were excellent at organising so we could get the earlier flight. We had loads of time at the pyramids and then went onto the sphinx. Then our lunch spot (all included) was overlooking the Nile. Then we had a couple of hours in the Egyptian museum which was enough to see the highlights and then a felucca trip before heading back to the airport. Our guide Aly was exceptional. Really knew his stuff, very friendly and was great with two tired kids. The private experience was perfect for us as it meant loads of room in the bus and meant the kids could sleep in-between places. Would absolutely recommend this if you are in sharm and haven't been to the pyramids before.

Last minute trip turned out to be the best of my holiday

Haoye_D, Nov 2023
I booked this trip just one day before going, however the travel agency communicated very promptly and booked flight tickets for me immediately. I traveled on my own as a female traveler but I never felt unsafe among these professional people I met in Cairo. The tour guide Ali was very knowledgeable and professional, he gave me a lot of history and stories about Cairo, the pyramid, etc. Lunch was nice as well. The drivers both from Sharm and Cairo were also nice and respectful. I can recommend this trip to others without doubt!

Great hike and thank you Hannah⭐

Moris_I, Feb 2026
I highly recommend this excursion, all well organized. Driver always in tow and tour guide, in my case Hannah, an extremely cute girl, kind and very, very prepared.

Good leadership but attention to unnecessary driveaway action

Marc_M, Jan 2026
Good guidance, unnecessary is the visit to the papyrus shop and fragrance shop. A pure cheap sales promotion. In addition, a date was initially confirmed and subsequently informed that no flights were available. Unsustainable
