GREAT Pyramid and Egyptian Museum tour - This was my first time taking a solo tour and Aziza was AMAZING. She made me feel at ease, all while being extremely knowledgeable of all the sites. She’s also a bit of a celebrity around town, so that was cool to see everyone love to see her. 😂 She even squeezed in a camel ride I had had to cancel the day prior. If you come to Cairo, ask for Aziza!

What can you say, it’s the pyramids - Mina is a knowledgeable and passionate tour guide. He gave us a quick tour of the museum, took us for a great lunch and then we spent a couple of hours at the pyramids. We felt that the camel ride was a waste of money, but that’s not on Mina. We have learned that on an Egyptian tour you will be taken places that are not on the itinerary in order to try and sell you things, like perfume, spices, rugs, etc. We have learned to say no if we don’t want to go there.

Jimmy and Ahmed are the BEST! - The greatest guide and driver ever! Knowledgeable, friendly, funny—Jimmy & Ahmed couldn’t have treated us better. As it was a private tour, we skipped the Egypt Museum, opting for a carriage ride into the desert for a better pyramids view and stops to learn about glass blowing, ancient essential oils and papyrus making. Jimmy and Ahmed prevented us from being hassled by all those trying to sell us something plus they were delightful luncheon companions (included in the tour price). We take a lot of pictures, from different vantage points. Jimmy never rushed us and knew many spots to get the best photo. Private tour is the way to go—especially with these guys! The flexibility alone is worth the added expense.

Great tour and an amazing experience - We had a great time taking this tour and our guide Jimmy was really nice and friendly. My won had such a great time and he loved hanging out with Jimmy as he was so nice to him and my son claims that he became his best friend 😂. They showed up on time, the van was really comfortable, the tour was well organized, and the guide was very detailed. We got to do many activities that made the day go by so quick and created life long lasting memories. I really recommend them if you are considering any tours in Cairo, they will not disappoint 💯💯

This was my first visit to Cairo and... - <p>This was my first visit to Cairo and with only on day I wanted to focus on the main historical sights. This tour was perfect for me. My guide Hosam Sam! was really good with extensive knowledge of Egyptian history. He was very flexible and adjusted to my preferences, ie what to see in the Egyptian Museum, skip lunch etc. Highly recommend Sam as the perfect choice for a guide if you are planning travel to Cairo.<br/> As to the tour itself it certainly met my expectations- the history is incredible. Only got a taste of the Egyptian Museum, need several days to do it justice!</p>
