Absolutely Amazing! Far exceeded our Expectations. Safe, efficient, relaxed and well organized. - Absolutely Amazing! My Fiance and I got the 8-Hour Private Tour of the Pyramids, Egyptian Museum and Bazaar from Cairo, and we were absolutely thrilled with the experience! Things we appreciate: - Fast, efficient, and safe transportation around Cairo. (Personal Driver) - Very detailed day plan with flexibility - Tickets for all events were pre purchased so almost no lines. - We were also brought to multiple high quality, authentic, stores around Ciaro as well as the Bazaar. - Lunch was amazing and very well done! (Included in our price minus drinks) - Our tour guide organized our Camel ride for us. - Our tour guide (Amr Mousa), also an Egyptologist, was exceptionally knowledgeable. Throughout the whole tour he was friendly and clearly very excited to do his job. This was especially helpful with the tour of the museum where all the information he was teaching us throughout the day really came together with his explanation of almost every exhibit. - Having our own driver for the day made it very convenient to leave belongings in a secure vehicle with the driver, in-between activities. (Especially helpful for shopping) I can't possibly cover the entire day, however, this experience far exceeded our expectations. I will definitely be recommending this experience to anyone I know, coming to Cairo.

Our great day with Fatima - Our tour was already a success because Fatima was in communication the day before telling us exactly when she will be picking us up. We visited a lot of sights and she was so informative and patient with us. We loved her jokes and interaction throughout the day. She is a great tour guide and I would recommend her to all my friends. Thank you.

Great Tour of Pyramids - Thank you to our tour guide Fatima for this unforgettable tour! The drive from Hurgada was long (a bit less than 6 hours) but the moment Fatima came in the car she was very lively and enthusiastic. Very knowledgeable of Egyptian history and was able to answer all our questions. We had a nice breakfast before the tour and a delicious lunch of Egyptian food with the best views of the Pyramids from the city. We also got some great pictures throughout the tour; our tour guide was great with photography and creative with these shots. We would highly recommend this tour with Fatima! The driver of the tour was also great. There were many check points along the way and security measures. Tourism safety is a big thing here and they do well to keep us feeling safe!

8-Hour Private Tour by MANAR ATWA of the Pyramids, Sphinx, Egyptian Museum & Bazaar with Camel Ride & Lunch from Cairo - Manar Atwa was my tour guide and I cannot recommend her enough. She is so friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. She doesn’t just tell you the history (of which her knowledge is vast) but points out all kinds of things you’d miss and makes these ancient places come alive. She was there waiting for me in my hotel to pick me up, let me go at my own pace through all the stops and is the BEST photographer I’ve ever had. I learnt more about Egypt in those 8 hours with her than I did the entire 4 days I was there. Also, as I a female traveling alone she made me feel so comfortable and at ease. It’s because of Manar that my next trip overseas will undoubtedly be back to Egypt, not only because she made me fall in love with the country and it’s beautiful culture, but also because I cannot wait to book another tour with her and see her again!

Full-Day Guided Private Tour to Pyramids of Giza Dahshur Sakkara - It was an amazing experience to start the Egypt 🇪🇬 trip. Guide Mr. Radwan proactively connected one day before and made sure that the trip is On and well organized. Mr. Radwan picked us from Hotel in time and took us to Giza of Pyramid with completely providing ancient historical information about Giza Pyramid, Valley of king, Sphinx and Egypt. Guided us very well and advised us regarding the panoramic view as well. We also had an excellent camel ride during our Giza Pyramid visit. Mr. Radwan next took us to hieroglyphs where we had our name carved in silver ornaments. We also visited the first paper papyrus museum and got a chance to get good art work on papyrus. We also visited glass museum and perfume shop before heading towards lunch. Mr. Radwan proactively organized our lunch very well and ambience of the hotel was also excellent with nice service. After Lunch we had a relaxed travel to Dahshur to visit both Red Pyramid and Bend Pyramid. Mr. Radwan again Gave historical information about Dhahsur and later on we moved towards Sakkara to visit the Step Pyramid. Mr. Radwan took care us nicely in this entire journey with providing quality guided professional services. Finally ended our excellent day with Sound and Light Show.

Full day adventure with Tree of Life! - It has been an amazing adventure in El Cairo, with Yasser. It was a private tour from beginning to end for me and my boyfriend. We first visited the beautiful and impressive Giza pyramids, then we went for a private camel ride for 20 minutes where a young boy took great and lots of pictures of the adventure. Later on, we went had Papyrus tour to get to know how it was produced, some of its art, how to identify originals from fakes, and understand a bit more about their culture. Afterwards, we went to have lunch to a restaurant with Giza Pyramids view and had the opportunity to taste some egyptian typical food. And finally we went to the Egyptian Museum, where we could see the mummies, the original dressing, jewelry, etc. At every point Yasser and Ibrahim (driver) made sure we were having a good time, always concerned for our safety (being hidrated, not received sunlight directly, understanding full history, etc.) and satisfaction. Tour 100% recommended!!
