We took the Grand Museum & Pyramids tour from Cairo with our tour guide, Mr. Mostafa Gamal, and driver, Mr. Emad. It was a superb visit — well organized. The tour guide was knowledgeable, highly experienced, attentive to our needs, mindful of our safety, and respectful of time
Good driver very carefully and cairo perfect city
The driver was very friendly and the best driver ever.
Our trip to Egypt was one to remember! My expectations were met 100% and I would highly suggest to anyone having doubts about whether or not to go, to take the leap and you will not regret it. I have to underline at this point that enjoying the tour and learning about the culture and history of the place was made possible thanks to our guide, Mostafa Gamal, who always made sure that we got the best experience and was taking care of everything for us from the tiniest detail to the most important thing! From Alexandria to Cairo and then Aswan and Luxor I would 100% do it again!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that your trip through Alexandria, Cairo, Aswan, and Luxor met your expectations and created such memorable experiences. Your kind words about Mostafa Gamal mean a lot, and we’ll be sure to pass along your appreciation.
Moustafa, Hasan and Toula our guide, driver and the hacker during the visit to the museum and the pyramids. The service was excellent. The commentaries about the items, the history and skipping the queue was invaluable. Overall, I had a great experience. I highly recommend this tour and the team.
had a wonderful experience with Shaimaa Emaad! We got to see the Pyramids, the new Grand Egyptian Museum (before the official opening), and a traditional Egyptian restaurant. Highly recommend booking this experience.
Our guide Mustafa and driver Emad were amazing! The knowledge and the caring for us was more than we could ask for. They get a 10 star from us!
Thank you for your extremely kind words.
From the moment we were met off our cruisehip by Mostafa, we knew this going to be the start of a magnificent experience. Our driver Emet was a patient individual which you had to be negotiating the traffic around Cairo and Alexandria. Our first stop was at the Giza Plateau and it was cool with a gentle breeze. Mostafa guided us around explaining in detail the history and we learnt so much. He kindly offered to take photos of us using his phone as he had a better camera. We will cherish these photos forever. He was able to transfer the photos via the free wifi onboard the minivan. Our second stop was at the museum and Mostafa was able to point out the must see artifacts and let us move at our own pace. Our third stop was to do shopping. Our final stop was for lunch which was a buffet together with a barbecue which was delicious. Mostafa is the best tour guide we have met and with his assistance, this truly was a trip of a lifetime.
Well run tour and our tour guide Deen was excellent in his knowledge and experience was first rate . Also a special mention for our driver Milad who was proficient and courteous Will definitely use again
Very good experience with Ms Toka Shaheen, who booked for this trip, Mr. Mostafa Gamal, a very professional guide and Mr. Milad Awaad, the very prestative driver. A recommended experience in Egypt
