If you are unsure about taking this tour, there should be no second thoughts. Stop right here, and look no further. Please book this tour as you will be tutored by the articulate, knowledgeable and scholarly Egyptologist Aly. He is someone who is very organized, patient, and teaches a vast amount of history which would make you yearn to learn more. Aly and his driver came for my husband and I at our hotel, and took us to the pyramids. He spoke to us about the time period, the people, and the culture that was happening during that era. With his assistance, we then proceeded to take many photographs which were a joy to see, as Aly is a genius at giving the best reccomendations for poses, and standing in the perfect spot for picture taking. After about 2 hrs at the pyramids, we went to the Grand Egyptian Museum. Here you will gain a vast amount of knowledge pertaining to the history of the Kings and Pharoahs from a man who no doubt loves his job and has the history of this era over flowing in his brain and ready to share with you. A big thank you to the number one tour guide Aly for imparting his educational wisdom upon us.

It is unbelievably AMAZING! We only had 3 full days in Cairo and this tour covered a lot for us. We booked the all inclusive package with Egypt in Tours, so the admission fees to every place was included. Aly was our guide. We were very nervous, not knowing if we would get a good guide or a bad guide, but thankfully he turned out to better than what we hoped for. He was very knowledgeable, patient, fun, funny and thorough. He allowed us to take our time exploring and learning. The tour was perfect. We started at 7am to view the sphinx & Pyramids before the crowds arrived and before it got too hot outside. I am still in awe of the pyramids and all the history we learned during the tour. We definitely left with a deeper understanding and personally left questioning many things I've been taught as a kid up into an adult. We got to go inside one of the pyramids as well. The restaurant for lunch was very nice and the food was super delicious. This tour did not disappoint. Our guide took so many beautiful photos of us!!! I 1000% RECOMMEND you book this Tour and request Aly if possible!

We had a great tour of the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx! Our driver, Wessam, was perfectly on time to pick us up from our accommodation and we were joined by our awesome guide, Aly Elsheemy, who gave us a great briefing for the day. Getting inside was incredibly smooth since our entry tickets were already included. We took a convenient shuttle to the panoramic area, and the 30-minute camel ride was really fun! Aly, our incredibly knowladgable guide, shared fascinating history about the area and even took some great photos for us. We cannot recommend this tour highly enough!
We can not thank you enough for such review. We have done what was your right to receive the services you paid for and we had promised you. It is very nice of you to take a few minutes writing this excellent review, though!
Firstly, thank you, Aly, for the amazing itinerary you prepared for us today! We could feel, see, and hear the passion he has for sharing the beautiful culture and amazing wonders of not only Giza, but all of Egypt! From the Giza Pyramids and all its ancient history, to The Grand Egyptian Museum and finally seeing the mask of Tutankhamun and then ending in a very delicious Egyptian lunch. Aly would take the special care and time to make sure we were prepared and informed of all the things we were about to participate in. None of the many things we did today would have been possible without our driver, Wessam, Driving in Egypt takes bravery and skill than most are used to, but luckily for us, he has both and got us to every destination in a very efficient manner! We would highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves history and shopping! If we ever return to Egypt, We hope to use your touring expertise again! BIG Thank you!
We always get backed by your positive reviews which are always to serve more than words, but as guidelines show us that success is a great mission to be achieved. Thank you so much !
We spent two days in Cairo with Aly as our private guide, travelling as a group of four adults and three children, and had an excellent experience from start to finish. Aly was consistently punctual, organized, and professional. Pick-ups and drop-offs were seamless, and the vehicle was immaculate and very comfortable—something we really appreciated with a larger group and kids. He paced the days thoughtfully, balancing guided experiences with time to move at our own pace. His knowledge added depth to what we were seeing, and he shared information in a way that was engaging and accessible. What really stood out was how great Aly was with our kids. He was patient, kind, and made sure they felt included and comfortable throughout. Travelling with children can be challenging, but he made the experience easy and enjoyable for everyone. A highlight was our coffee in the Bazaar in the 300 year old coffee shop! We would highly recommend Aly to anyone visiting Cairo, especially families. He played a big role in making our time there smooth, memorable, and stress-free.
We are thrilled that you have enjoyed our services and being part of your great experience in Cairo. We hope to see you again and that you recommend family members and friends to use our services. We shall always let you be proud of us.
He was a funny guide, very gentlemanly man and we liked him very much

What an absolutely incredible experience! Aly is not just a tour guide—he’s a passionate egyptologist who brings ancient Egypt to life with every story he tells. Standing in front of the Giza Pyramids was a moment I’ll never forget; the sheer magnitude and history of these wonders left the group speechless. Aly’s knowledge is extraordinary, sharing fascinating secrets about this ancient civilization that you won’t find in any guidebook. The Grand Egyptian Museum was equally impressive, and Aly knew exactly how to navigate it while keeping us engaged. Plus, his photography skills are amazing—he captured creative shots that perfectly captured the magic of the day. This tour exceeded every expectation!

Aly is absolutely the guide you want in Cairo! Super friendly, knows his stuff (he’s an actual egyptologist!), and made the whole experience so fun and memorable. I mean, being there at the Giza Pyramids in person is just mind-blowing—photos don’t do it justice. Aly shared so many cool stories and little-known facts about ancient Egypt that made everything come alive. The Grand Egyptian Museum was fascinating too, and he knew all the best spots and exhibits. Oh, and he’s got serious photography skills—took some really creative shots for us that turned out amazing. Can’t recommend him enough.
