Completely private tour with an excellent guide

My guide Muhammad was the best. Although we intended to be English guides, Muhammad was fluent in Japanese and well versed in the contents of this tour, which showed considerable study and extensive experience. Moreover, in accordance with our wishes, he guided us smoothly and without waste through the pyramids, the Sphinx and the Grand Egyptian Museum. He even taught me about Egypt and how to buy souvenirs wisely. It's completely private. Thank you very much.

AN EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME

READ THIS! This tour far superseded my expectations. I was picked up by a private Egyptologist by private driver in an air conditioned car first thing after breakfast directly from my hotel. I was then taken on a private boat tour on the River Nile, followed by a decision of my own to which museums we were to visit. The vast history I became familiar with through this tour thanks to my very knowledgeable guide was enlightening and exciting not only throughout the museums, but throughout the entire day. His English was perfect and so the vast history was easily understood. On top of his knowledge, was his photography - SO MANY great photos came from this day, more than any other experience I’ve had in Egypt. We got photos others weren’t even permitted to get at the pyramids bc he was smooth with the security. He also knew where to get quality souvenirs for my family, my friends, and myself. Then he even gifted me something I didn’t buy for myself bc that’s just the close friend he became. Camel rides, ATVs adventures, and the beautiful sunset all with the great pyramids of Giza in your background. Really, I couldn’t have been gifted a better guide! Mahmoud Khalefa is THE BEST! Ask for him, you won’t be disappointed.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE IN EGYPT

Absolutely wonderful time on this tour! My husband and I spent the day with Jimmy Araoh who showed us the best of Giza and even changed our trip itinerary to better fit our interests and sightseeing priorities while in Egypt! Jimmy took us to other sights in addition to what was listed here for the tour since we had time which was totally worth it! We got to see a rug school and papyrus store in addition to a perfume shop! Jimmy is an extremely knowledgeable tour guide expert. Both him and our driver were super friendly and willing to take as many photos as we wanted! Lunch spot for authentic Egyptian food was delicious and they even helped us find a spot to purchase extra luggage on our last day! Highly recommend and ask for Jimmy!

Cairo at it’s best!

Our tour guide, Ahmed Elsayed, was terrific with his knowledge and general command of all of the sites and places during our tours. Both he and the drivers provided us with excellent service throughout our time in Cairo. I would highly recommend Tours Egypt Club for providing great service throughout the region. All tours were timely and some were created just for our desires. Thank you for making our trip memorable.

Excellent taste of Cairo with Mohamed Gamal

We were traveling to Cairo for business and had a single day to do some sight seeing. We decided to see the museum and the pyramids and we went with Mohamed Gamal as our guide. We had an excellent morning with Mohamed who is passionate and knowledgeable about the history of Egypt and the artifacts connected to the Ancients. This was a great trip and we came away informed and entertained.
