Two days in Egypt with TourMate 10/10
Amr was amazing!
I booked two full day tours with TourMate and both were wonderful.
- Giza and GEM
- Citadel, NMEC, and Khan el-Khalili Market
Everything was so easy from hotel pick up in the morning right through to drop off in the afternoon.
I didn’t really know anything about Egypt before coming here so it was great to have someone that knows so much show me around and answer any questions I had.
Booking everything direct with TourMate in the months leading up to my trip was really easy and communication was great.
Amr was super helpful and responded quickly, even with my questions unrelated to his tours, like helping me when my airport hotel transfer was a no show 🙈🙈 He also organised a Nile river cruise for me - including transport - on short notice when I had some spare time one evening.
I only had limited time in Egypt this trip - but whenever I come back with more time I’ll be reaching out to TourMate 🫶
I would definitely recommend TourMate and Amr.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a beautiful review Zoë! It honestly means a lot to me..
It was such a pleasure spending those two days with you and showing you around my country. I’m really happy that you enjoyed both Giza & the GEM and our day exploring the Citadel, NEC, and Khan El-Khalili.
What I appreciate most is that you trusted me not only with your tours, but also with all those little things that came up during your trip. I was more than happy to help, and I’m glad I could make your time in Egypt a little easier and more enjoyable. And of course, arranging that Nile cruise at the last minute was a pleasure!
You came to Egypt without knowing much about the country, and seeing you discover its history, culture, and everyday life was honestly one of my favorite parts of our time together. That’s exactly why I love what I do.
I know you only had a couple of days this time, but I really hope you come back one day with more time to explore. There is so much more waiting for you, and I’d absolutely love to show it to you. 🇪🇬
Thank you again for choosing TourMate, for trusting me, and for recommending me. Until we meet again in Egypt! ❤️

Amazing trip and exceptional guide.
This was my first time in Cairo, and I couldn't have asked for a better introduction to Egypt. I spent two incredible days with Amr, who showed me the Pyramids, the new Grand Egyptian Museum, and many other beautiful places around the city.
From the very moment I stepped into the car, I felt like I was traveling with a good friend rather than just a tour guide. Amr is incredibly honest, patient, and excellent at what he does. His knowledge of Cairo, Egypt, and its ancient history is absolutely vast and fascinating. On top of that, his English is so flawless that I honestly had the impression I was speaking with an American!
The logistics of the trip were perfectly organized. We traveled across Cairo in a very comfortable car with our wonderful driver, Muhammad. One of the most refreshing aspects of booking with Amr was his absolute transparency. The price we agreed upon was the final price—no hidden surprises, no unexpected fees, and absolutely no unpleasantness. In fact, within the agreed price of the tour, Amr even took care of the food and paid for it himself! They also provided my transfer to the airport at a price four times cheaper than what other online transport companies were offering.
Amr was extremely polite and accommodating throughout the entire trip. He proactively offered to take pictures of me at various sites, and he did so with true professionalism—the photos turned out amazing!
I will definitely return to Cairo in the future, and without a doubt, I will be using Amr's services again. I recommend him with all my heart to anyone looking for a stress-free, deeply informative, and memorable trip to Egypt.

A Trip of a Lifetime with TourMate
We traveled to Egypt in June 2026, and from the moment we landed until our final goodbye, TourMate took care of every detail. We spent 10 days traveling with Amr and our two drivers, visiting Cairo, Giza, Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Abydos, and Dendera.
Throughout the trip, Amr made sure everything ran smoothly. He is incredibly knowledgeable about both ancient and modern Egypt, and he was always patient, kind, flexible, and willing to go the extra mile to make our trip unforgettable. One of the sweetest surprises was a birthday cake he arranged for me one evening. It was such a thoughtful gesture and just one example of the personal touches that set him apart from the many guides you could choose.
Some of our favorite memories weren't just the incredible temples and monuments—they were the drives between destinations. Those hours gave us time to talk, laugh, share stories about our families and lives, and really get to know each other. We arrived in Egypt expecting a tour guide and drivers, but we left with lifelong friends who are now part of our family.
Amr is truly special. If you're considering a trip to Egypt, you won't be disappointed.

Starr, Thank you so much for these beautiful words. ❤️🇪🇬
Reading this honestly brought a huge smile to my face. Spending those 10 days with you was so much more than guiding a tour. it was a journey we shared together, and I’m incredibly grateful for every moment.
From Cairo and Giza to Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Abydos, and Dendera, it was a pleasure showing you my country and sharing its history with you. But what made the trip truly special were the conversations, the laughs, the long drives, and all the stories we shared along the way.
And that’s exactly what I hope for with every guest: not just to show you Egypt, but to make you feel at home here. The fact that you arrived as travelers and left feeling like family means more to me than I can put into words. ❤️
I’m so happy the birthday surprise was a special memory too! 🎂 It was a small gesture, but seeing your reaction made it completely worthwhile.
Thank you for trusting TourMate with such an important journey and for allowing me to be part of your memories. I truly hope this isn’t goodbye, but simply “see you again” in Egypt. 🇪🇬❤️

Organized, informative and fun. Perfect.
Very well organized tours, with a service of very high quality. I had Amr as my guide. Attentive, spoke impeccable English, and explained everything about the sights, while giving freedom to also enjoy the ride on account. I recommend 100%.

Great experience tailored to your needs beyond expectation!
I spent two incredible days in Egypt, and the experience exceeded all expectations. On Day 1, I toured the iconic Pyramids of Giza, marveled at the majestic Great Sphinx of Giza, explored the impressive Grand Egyptian Museum, and rode a camel through the desert. We ended the day with a delicious and authentic Egyptian meal. And that was only the first day!
On Day 2, we visited the beautiful Mosque of Muhammad Ali, explored the fascinating National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (home to the royal mummies), and enjoyed a peaceful felucca ride along the Nile River. Every moment was meaningful and unforgettable.
This journey has truly been a treasured experience. I gained rich historical knowledge and deeper insights that go far beyond what you can read in a textbook. I made memories that will last a lifetime — and I also made a great friend.
Amr is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely fun to spend time with. His care goes far beyond professional obligation. As a native, he understands the inner workings of the local tourism scene and always made sure I was comfortable and protected from being overcharged or taken advantage of.
For example, at one point a vendor asked me for a tip after I had already tipped another vendor for the same service. Not realizing this, I generously tipped the second vendor as well because I didn’t have smaller bills. Without me even saying a word, Amr noticed what had happened, stepped in, and recovered the extra money so the vendors fairly split the original tip. That level of attentiveness and integrity meant so much to me.
I cannot recommend Amr highly enough. If you want a knowledgeable guide, a smooth and stress-free experience, and someone who truly cares about your trip, he is the person to book.

Your kind words about my work and friendship mean more than you can imagine. Guests like you are the reason I love being a tour guide. I hope Egypt will always remain a special memory for you, and you are always welcome back anytime.
Wishing you all the best, my friend!

The best guide in Egypt
We had an outstanding experience with Umr from Tour Mate Egypt. From the very first interaction, Umr was professional, warm, and incredibly knowledgeable—nothing ever felt rushed or scripted. He went above and beyond to tailor everything to us, handled logistics seamlessly, and made what could have been a hectic trip feel effortless.
What really set Umr apart was his genuine care and passion for Egypt. His explanations brought every site to life, his recommendations were spot-on, and we always felt safe, looked after, and welcomed. If you’re considering a tour in Egypt, do yourself a favour and book with Umr—you’ll be in the very best hands.

Honest, smart and well prepared: two perfect days at Giza and GEM.
We spent two days with Amr between the Pyramids of Giza and the Great Egyptian Museum (GEM) and it was the best choice we could make. In addition to being an extremely friendly and honest person, he is a "smart" professional in the true sense of the word.
It knows every angle and every timing: thanks to its "shortcuts" and perfect time management, we avoided endless queues by optimizing every minute. The explanations were rich and well illustrated, but never heavy. He created a tailor-made itinerary for us, proving flexible to our requests. If you are looking for someone who will make you experience Egypt stress-free and with great competence, he is the right person.

Excellent Tour with Amr!
We toured with Amr who was excellent. Very knowledgeable, personable, and enthusiastic. Amr could speak well to the exhibits and sites, answered all of our questions. It didn’t feel at all scripted or just “another tour”. We felt he enjoyed his job, tailored the experience to us and we had a great time. If we ever go back we will definitely be giving Amr a call even to just say hi.
