Wonderful. A stone's throw from. Apitale, immersed in the desert between pyramids , Sphinx, tombs and artifacts in continuous discovery. Affectionate welcome (even too affectionate) by the attendants who between camels, rides on horse carts explain and make you visit the protected area of the Pyramids. Even if between tips and exhausting attempted sales, I highly recommend relying on one of them who in addition to making you do all the visits now are all btavissimi to make you very nice photos.
Excelent trsveling. Maria is a good and simpattiv guide and José excelent driver. Favorite day in Cairo. We return Thanks a
The trip was a wonderful experience across all the pyramids of Giza, Sphinx, Sakkara and Memphis. But the practical things gave the trip a good start and a wonderful experience. The day before I was contacted on WhatsApp by the tour operator EMO Tour Egypt about the trip and who is coming and picking me up from the hotel. Everything went as agreed with a wonderfully skilled, patient, respectful and service minded guide and driver who has made the trip wonderful. Tusind tak
This was my first time in Egypt and I had a fantastic time with the tour guide Mukhtar, he was friendly, very knowledgeable about the pyramids, and great to talk to. We went to some lovely places and it was absolutely fantastic. The company is great as well, I had to change the date and it was no problem at all. Everyone is very helpful and friendly. I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone looking for a tour.
It was amazing. The guide Mukhtar is very intelligent . We been everywhere on time. Excursion catch all necessary points we would like to see. He suggested to us also not usual place to visit. Highly recommend!
Cheep but very decent guy. Good English, friendly, reliable ,maybe not with very. deep knowledge of history but was enough to highlight the main points
Amazing tour done by Hanna and Mohamed. We visit all the expected and most relevant site in giza plateau. Wonderful visit to papyrus and parfunes shop, for free. Thanks from Marco and Federica from Italy
Maria was very knowledgeable guide and she provided lots of fun facts and infos. Tour to all important pyramids were amazing and would definitely book this tour again in Egypt
I recently took this tour with Mahmoud El Wakeel as my guide and Husain as my driver, and it was the exact experience I was looking for. From pick up to drop off it was almost 8 hours (though it could have been longer because Mahmoud took his time and always encouraged me to take as mush time as I wanted at each stop without ever feeling rushed.) He was extremely knowledgeable and informative both about ancient and present day Egypt. He gave me all the info as we drove and upon arrival, but would then let me have whatever time I needed to enjoy things for myself which I especially appreciated. I had no idea just how much we would see and how different each stop would be from the last. No shortcuts! It was an extremely packed day that somehow felt relaxed and enjoyable the whole time. As a bonus, Husain was an incredibly relaxed and safe driver in the midst of the chaotic Cairo traffic as well as being a great guy. The whole experience was just what I hoped it would be. One word of advice. We started at 7 am and it was amazing because we beat most of the other tourists and all of the big buses. Even at the famous pyramids in Giza there was hardly anyone around. It felt very peaceful. Plus, you get a head start on the heat which definitely caught up to us as the day went on. A perfect experience with Mahmoud as my guide.
Great private tour for an affordable price. The company provided airport pick-up for a small extra fee. The guide, Mahmoud, was really good - Mahmoud provided great information on Egypt and its history as well as providing advice on avoiding common scams. Highly recommend this tour.
