Our final full day in Cairo with Egy Excursions took us to Saqqara, the Hanging Church in Coptic Cairo, lunch at the Hawaii restaurant, Al-Azhar Park, and the National Egyptian Museum — where we had the privilege of seeing the royal mummies. It was an extraordinary, full day and every moment of it was enriched by our guide Hasan. I say this honestly — without Hasan, we would have seen these places but not truly understood them. Whether he was walking us through the ancient step pyramids at Saqqara, explaining the profound history of the Hanging Church, or standing beside the mummies at the Egyptian Museum and bringing their stories to life — his knowledge, passion and ability to connect everything across thousands of years of history was remarkable. Mahmood once again looked after us brilliantly as our driver — reliable, kind and always one step ahead. The whole day was seamlessly organised from pickup to drop-off. And what a way to end the day — a two-hour Nile cruise in the evening with our guide Isra. She is a wonderfully warm and friendly person who truly went above and beyond, making us feel like we were with a friend rather than a guide. We ended up singing songs together in the car on the way — one of those spontaneous, joyful moments you don’t plan but never forget. The food on the cruise was simple and modest, but the live performances were entertaining and the atmosphere on the Nile at night was magical. Egy Excursions gave us the Cairo experience we had dreamed of. If you are visiting and want to truly understand this extraordinary city and its history, book with them and ask for Hasan. He will change the way you see Egypt — and if you’re lucky enough to have Isra too, you’ll leave Cairo with a new friend.

Exceptionally knowledge of Egyptian history. They were prompt, kind and got us to Saqqara, Memphis and Dashour attractions in a timely manner.
