Incredible service and experience - Great service!, including an exceptional English guide and driver, excellent timing and punctuality that allowed us to be ahead of crowds everywhere. The car was new and very clean, snacks and water were provided the full day and we felt completely safe during the whole trip. We even got a great price for the next day taxi to the airport. Incredible price for the amazing experience we got.

Super Mo Is the Best Guide We've Ever Had! - This review is long overdue. My fiance and I traveled to Cairo in December 2018, and were lucky enough to find Super Mo--who made our trip tuly memorable! We booked a tour of the Giza pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis and Saqqara for our first day in Cairo, and Mo and his driver picked us up promptly in the morning. They were on time, accommodating, fun, and completely genuine. There was no sales pitch or detours to purchase things we didn't want. Instead, we drove right to each destination, where Mo gave us an engaging overview of the associated history. He has an amazing depth and mastery of Egyptology, speaks perfect English, and is an excellent photographer--the complete package! We had so much fun touring the ancient wonders of the world that we booked Mo and his driver for a completely bespoke tour of Cairo the next day. They took us around the city to see all the remaining sites we had on our list, including the market, a walk through Al-Azhar park and a stop for lunch. Mo gave us an in-depth overview of the city, the sites, the centuries of history, and day-to-day life. It was like we were spending the day with a longtime friend. What would have surely taken us days to accomplish was packed into a day we will never forget. In our opinion, you cannot go wrong booking a tour with Super Mo. He knows what he's doing, has an exceptional grasp on Egyptian history, is kind and accommodating, and helped us see more of Cairo that we ever thought possible in the short time we were there. He made our vacation very special. We highly recommend him and his company!

Walid cannot be beat - We enjoyed our tour immensely. Walid was on time ( i am a super stickler for promptness) and from the get go he was pleasant and interested in us and what we expected from our day tour. We felt safe, we got more information than we could ever have expected. My now fiance and I still talk about this tour fondly. I would reach out to Walid and Egypt Wonder again without hesitation if I were to visit again.
