The best tour yet!

Our tour guide Fox was absolutely brilliant! He was very knowledgeable, allowed us to have lunch free of charge and took us on a boat on the Nile for a small fee. He taught us how to write our names in hieroglyphics and after we said our goodbyes, he sent us a huge amount of pictures and info about Egypt on WhatsApp. He was also an excellent photographer!

Best private tour you can get in Cairo!

I wanted to see Cairo and wasn’t sure how safe it is for a single female traveler so I figured I’ll go for a long layover and book a private tour. The short version - I felt like a VIP guest without breaking the bank. The long version - I had Very nice and easy tour with everything included in a set price, (food, tickets, camel rides, pictures etc. I didn’t have to worry about anything and got a total local experience. Not only did I get to experience the local food, drinks and water pipe, my guide Mohammed was also not shy to answer any questions I may have. Even after the tour the next day he still assisted me with pictures and information about Egypt. It was a pleasure spending the day with him and if I didn’t know he was a professional tour guide I might would have mistaken him for a professional photographer. I got such beautiful pictures and he thought me how I should move in front of the camera. He was extremely patient and did everything for me to be happy with my experience and photos. We had so much time that he included several other stops which weren’t in the description of the tour. He simply wanted to make sure I take in as much of Egypt as possible with the time I had regardless of how long of a day he would have. I landed at 6:30 am and didn’t fly out before 1:30am the next morning. He made sure I wouldn’t get too early to the airport and just hung out with me at the bazaar. I certainly have saved his number and hope to return to Egypt soon! I can recommend my tour guide to anyone who wants to have a true VIP and or local experience. My tour guide was Mohammed Ali Hussein.

Unique amazing experience for a long layover in Cairo

It's the perfect option for a long layover. You really get a luxury treatment: nice car, good amendments, thoughtful treats. The guide (Mimo) is super knowleagble, fun, kind and polite, always ready to answer any question about the sites, history or local culture. His English is also very good. The tour is not rush and you have enough time to visit all main attractions, take your pictures and take your time to enjoy the atmosphere of this amazing city. Although the Museum is huge, the guide will pinpoint the main pieces not to be missed and fill you with important info. He will also make sure you don't fall into any tourist trap at the market. As a private tour, you'll have the flexibility to adapt it to your needs.
