A fabulous trip! Educational, inspiring and at times unbelievable! Our guide Gamal was incredibly knowledgeable!

We could not have wished for a better guide! Gamal taught us so much about the history of the pyramids and tombs. Gamal’s knowledge enriched the trip - we had a brilliant day! Dsoky our driver was there to pick us up without any delay and drove carefully through the streets of Cairo. They were the perfect pair! Wonderful to see such awe inspiring Egyptian history!

A great trip to the pyramids, Memphis and Sakkara, not to be missed.

My wife and I had a dedicated and private (nobody else involved) tour today with Gamal our guide, and Dhosy our driver and I would highly recommend this tour to others. Gamal is great company and highly knowledgeable on all matters Egyptian, Dhosy probably the best driver in Cairo! Gamal made us feel completely at home and escorted us around expertly, we visited a number of archeological sites/places probably that we shouldn’t have, which made the tour even more enjoyable. We were able to tailor the tour to meet our needs, we didn’t visit any papyrus factories or other retail outlets that didn’t interest us. Gamal was able to make the detailed and complex history of Egypt both fascinating and enjoyable. The camel ride was a blast, don’t miss that one……

Operator response

Thank you so much for your amazing review! 😊 We are truly happy to hear that you and your wife had such an enjoyable private tour with Gamal and Dhosy. It’s wonderful to know that Gamal’s knowledge, hospitality, and sense of humor helped make the history of Egypt both fascinating and easy to enjoy. We’re also very glad that Dhosy made you feel safe and comfortable while navigating the busy streets of Cairo — he will be proud to hear your kind words! One of the best parts of a private tour is the flexibility to customize the experience, so we’re delighted that you were able to enjoy the sites that interested you most without unnecessary stops. And yes… the camel ride is always unforgettable! 🐪✨ Thank you again for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back to Egypt for another adventure in the future! 🇪🇬

He clarified many details for us. He helped us truly enjoy ourselves at each stop on the tour. He took many great pictures of us.

Beautiful day at the Pyramids

Experience to remember. We booked late evening x the next day the guide came to pick us up on time. We were lucky enough to be accompanied by Ahmed who, in addition to being nice and very kind, studied archaeology and therefore was an added value to our experience.

Unforgettable experience, superb tour guide.

Mostafa was a great host and tour guide. He and George (the driver) made sure my son and I had the best time in Egypt. Mostafa is very knowledgeable in history and has been able to explain every detail about the pyramids to my 11 year old son and I. He ensured we were safe around all times, stoped wherever we wanted to take pictures and ensured we were comfortable in heat by turning the AC to the maximum. Mostafa knows everyone and people know him. We were able to skip the lines and get the VIP treatment thanks to him. He even took us to a nice lunch and tried Koshary. Great experience and highly recommended. If you want great experience and knowledgeable tour guide, ask for Mostafa.

Great experience!

My son and I had one day in Cairo. We had an amazing trip! Mostafa was our tour guide. He did the little things to make you feel at home. He had a driver (Mina) who also took great care of us. Mostafa picked an amazing restaurant. We also were provided with great places to learn about Egyptian culture with the opportunity to purchase some souvenirs. We would definitely want Mostafa again, should we be back in Cairo. Many Thanks.

The Perfect Tour!

Hands down the best experience I've ever had. Mr. Sayed was the perfect tour guide, my family felt safe and comfortable the entire time. He was very knowledgeable and open to making sure we enjoyed our experience. I cannot begin to express how fantastic this experience was, a thumps up all around. His coordination with the driver (Andrew) was amazing, our ride was always readily available at all times. I would definitely recommend his service.
