We had a great Citadel and NMEC tour with Fatimah through Viator
Fatimah did an amazing job!! She was incredibly knowledgeable and did such a great job teaching us and explaining all of the history. She was also really engaging, charismatic, and fun to be around. She also picked out a great place for lunch. I highly recommend Fatimah and would absolutely do a tour with her again.

A great day out with Shina and Mohamed El Gabry
The excursion started a bit later as there was some confusion regarding the pick up point which already had been confirmed earlier when the booking was made. The problem was rectified after I got a response from Mr. Omer via whatsapp. First stop with our guide Shima was the NMEC. This is a must for first time visitors to Egypt as it gives the history in chronological order and the largest number of mummies are housed here. Shima our guide was very knowlegable and took us through the museum at a leisurely pace answering our questions. She then took us to the Citadel and then through old Cairo and lastly the bazaar. Shima was an absolute delight , always smiling and eager to accomodate our requests along the way. I highly recommend this tour and duo of Shima and driver Mohamed El Gabry.

SCAMMED by Emo Tours & guide
FOUR HOURS SHORT! Done by 2pm, back to hotel 2:30pm. Included Coptic Cairo but omitted the bazaar because my Emo guide Aya combined my private tour of NEMC with another woman (and cutting the bazaar). I wanted a refund of some sort and the company was completely unhelpful. They neither contacted the guide nor followed up with me.

Action packed 1 day tour of Cairo!
We had only 1 day to see everything we missed at the beginning of our Egypt trip. Without our guide Yasmen showing us around the Museum of civilization, the Citadel, the Coptic area and the Egyptian museum we would not have been able to see everything. She was very organized and knew how to navigate places like the Citadel and Coptic Cairo in a way that we could never do on our own. Even the Egyptian museum was much better with her showing all the important highlights. Lunch was great too!

The tour is fine if...
The tour is fine if you have little time to devote to Cairo.
The guide, on the other hand, provided scant explanations. In addition, he took us to a shop for papyrus tourists in which he pressured us to buy telling us that it was 20 euros for us, insisting to buy and alluding to the good prices there was (a scam).

NMEC and felucca ride
Friendly and knowledgeable guide (Sayed Mahmoud) and driver. Felucca ride was relaxing. NMEC museum is beautiful-especially the royal mummies section.

Very nice day...
Very nice day of visit between the citadel, the museum of civilization and the bazaar. The driver perfectly adhered to the schedule and schedule, the car was comfortable and we were comfortable throughout the journey. Even if we had chosen only a driver and not a guide, he gave us some useful info, good tips and tricks to make the most of it. Serious and pleasant organization, we highly recommend!

Today we had a tour with...
Today we had a tour with our guide Mohamed, who was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Egypt. He made the experience engaging and informative, and we really appreciated his expertise. The only disappointment was that we weren’t able to visit Khan El Khalili due to the Islamic holiday, but overall it was a great experience and we learned so much thanks to Mohamed.
