        Day trip to Dashur, Memorise and Saqqarah
        Great tour guide Sayed and driver Mohammed. Both friendly and efficient getting us to three locations. Spent good amount of time at each of three sites and got good overview of history of all three areas.

        Exciting and safe
        Sayde Mahmoud & radhim were great guides. A wealth of knowledge and very easy going. We never waited in lines, and always had convenient pickup/drop-offs. Traffic in Egypt is nuts but we felt safe with our driver. Thank you so much for a fabulous experience.

        Cairo sightseeing
        I was in Cairo for 24 hours and Sayed Mahmoud and Islam arranged a quick city tour for me. Picked me up at the airport and gave me a detailed tour. Sayed knows the history very well and also good spots to take pictures. Islam kept us on track by his good driving and guarded my luggage. I never had to worry about anything

        Sayed is our great tour guide. He made our tour day at Cairo, Ginza very enjoyable. Many thanks.
        We are a family of 5 with 3 young children. We had a lovely tour day to see Museum, Giza pyramids. Sayed Mahoud is our guide. He is knowledgeble and very honest man. He was trying to make the best of our day considered that we lost 3 hours due to flight delayed (we booked flight seperately with Egyptair). Sayed consulted us which activitivies we should do and how in our limited time to make the most of the day. Also he helped us to avoid local sale people at the sites and even get some love local food to eat while waiting at the airport. Definitely recommend! I'll book with Emo tour next time we come.

        Sayad Mahmoud great guide
        We had a lovely trip today with our guide Sayed Mahmoud. We visited the pyramids and the Cairo museum. Our flight was delayed 2hrs but Sayed was still waiting to collect us a the airport. Sayed is very knowledgeable and friendly. We all had a lovely day. Thank you for giving us good memories.

        Terrible experience
        I have no words to express the bad experience I had with this agency. I will limit myself to telling what happened and to strongly advise against taking a tour with them, there are more valid agencies in Egypt, which I then contacted later. I took the day tour from Cairo to Luxor. On the way there, the driver and the agency representative left me at the wrong terminal at the airport, luckily I had the Egyptian sim so I called them back and made them go back, even though the representative insisted that I was the one in error, in the end I made a terrible rush not to miss the plane, but a person older than me would have missed the plane. Before boarding for the return flight I wrote a message to the agency to make sure they would come and pick me up at the right terminal upon arrival in Cairo. Surprise, there was NO ONE waiting for me upon arrival. I called the agency representative (the same one as in the morning) who told me that he would be there in 5 minutes. Finally he arrived after 40 minutes without a driver, first saying that the driver was in the parking lot, then that he was sick. Finally at 1 am he put me in a car with a driver who only spoke Arabic and I returned to the hotel alone at 2 am. Terrible experience

        The wonders of Tutankhamen
        Sayed Mahmoud was a brilliant guide, he showed us around the museum, the highlight of which was the Tutankhamun exhibition, Rita has wanted to see this for many years, it was wonderous. Rita has learning difficulties and Sayed was a model of patience with her, answering her questions and listening to her when she shared the knowledge she had of Tutankhamen. The tour delivered everything we wanted, and more. Sayed was a wonderful guide and when I requested not visiting the market, due to the stress felt at these places he agreed to remove that option, for which I was very grateful. Thank you Sayed.

      Such an amazing day!! Tonsi (our tour guide) was exceptionally informed and loads of fun! Not to mention he knew all the best photo ops. The best part was that he helped us negotiate fairly when we needed it and warded off all the street vendors. This makes a huge difference in how much a tourist can enjoy the sites. Tonsi became a one stop shop for everything we needed during our stay. This includes everything from finding the best restaurants (even when we were on our own) to helojg us get a PCR COVID test to depart. We stayed in constant communication with him throughout our time in Egypt. He's a friend for life!

      I decided to use Emo tours for most of our guided tours in Egypt since the price quote given by them was lowest. But i was really happy with the level of service they provided.
      Their guide arrived on time and the vehicle (van) was new and clean. We had a great time with our guide Ahmed at the pyramid complex and later at the museum.
      Lunch offered was good for non vegetarians but the two vegetarians in our group got just spaghetti with ketchup! Although they offered grilled veggies and dips for everyone.
      Next day we used this tour for 1 hr Felucca ride. Again the pick up and guide were great.
      In Luxor, i used Emo tours for most of our activities including airport pickup, hot air balloon ride, visiting Valley of kings and temples on east bank, Luxor museum and finally for transfer to Hurghada. All these activities were organised very well and our guide, Salwa , was willing to be flexible when we wanted to change the schedule.
      Throughout our trip, i was in touch with their representative (Tayso) on WhatsApp, who provided prompt responses.

      When I first started thinking about taking a trip to Egypt I read all the horror stories and experiences of those not having a guide.  It seemed the number 1 tip was to hire a guide because you wouldn't enjoy your trip otherwise due to all the hagglers, hasselers, catcalls, fear of safety,  and so on.  But I had only booked a travel guide once before- and that was on my first trip to New York and they came highly recommended from multiple friends.  But I didn't know anyone who had personally gone to Egypt.  And to trust the internet to find a guide?  I had lots of worries.  I checked out several companies but Emo Tours Egypt was VERY affordable.  Especially for a family of 3.  I was connected with a guide and organizer named Mahmoud Hakiem and we went through multiple packages deal and made them customized to fit me.  I wanted a sunrise camel ride, too see as much as possible in Cairo during a layover, a sunrise hot air ballon in Luxor, a sunset felucca ride, a sunset quad ride, and to see all the sites like Karnak and the pyramids as soon as they opened.   And I got all my wishes.  It was amazing to be the first ones at the Karnack temple at 6 in the morning,  to walk among the pillars alone, then laugh at all the tourists flocking in as the summer sun got hotter.  Or to be at the pyramids even before the hagglers showed up.  And the tour guides were so flexible, making sure we were completely satisfied.  My tour guide Sameh in Cairo noticed I was more interested in learning about the Islamic history and architecture instead of the Christian coptic so he made sure to visit more of those sites while we also toured Khan el-Khalili Market.  And I was able to connect his guidance with my later guides info in Luxor. (Kirles).   It was also all the little things that made this guided trip special.   Meeting a smiling Mahmoud Hakiem at the Cairo airport at 430 in the morning was so nice.  And him holding my figurative hand and reassuring me over and over again the camel was safe was super nice.   And for even the drivers Ahmed and Ramses to make suggestions, and to always be there ready to help,  was amazing too.  Mena, another guide in Luxor, was awesome as well.
      So to sum up,  would I recommend having a tour guide in Egypt?  A thousand times yes.  Would I recommend Emo Egypt Tours?  Yes!  Is Egypt safe? Yes- with a guide.
      Would I book with Emo Egypt Tours again? Yes!  I would love to next time visit Abu Simbel Temples, or to visit Hurghada and snorkle and see a dolphin.
      Till next time!

      Under the experienced watch of Sayed Mahmoud, I had a very immersive trip to the pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. Everything was very well taken care off and it was very easy going. Sayed really took care of everything and he felt really good what I needed or wanted to do. He always asked if I wanted to go somewhere and in the cases that I didn't that was perfectly fine. I felt really at ease and he was very knowledgeable. It was a great first experience to see this wonder of the world.

      I am happily writing this review on behalf of two of my friends Rodrigo and Julie from New York. They had the opportunity to travel to Egypt and when they told Me about their plans I said to them, let me connect you with the most amazing tour guide you will ever find. Since i have done so many tours with him in my last 5 visits to Misr(Egypt🇪🇬).So I arrange for them to get in contact with Ahmed Tonsi from Emo Tours. I was so happy to hear that their trip, with the help and guidance of Tonsi was a dream come true. Every detail of their tours was done with such a professional way to guarantee an amazing journey. Tonsi is the tour guide extraordinaire indeed. He will work with you and make sure all runs smoothly. I am delighted he was able to make my friends trip a memorable adventure. Book without hesitation. This company , Emo Tours, is incredible and Tonsi is the best. 💜💜

      There was some delay with the pickup.Our tour was supposed to start at 10:00 AM but due to gap from Operations Team,the pickup was done at 10:30 AM.Our driver was Mustafa and our Guide was Syed Mahmood.Unfortunately the weather was not the best.It was very windy and a lot of dust.We covered the Giza Pyramids first and saw Khufu and Khefren from outside along with the 3 queen pyramids.Then we went to Sphinx,Memphis and Saqara.
      We really liked the Giza Pyramids and Saqara.It was a good tour overall and our guide did the best due to weather conditions.Overall the tour started at 10:30 AM and ended at abt 05:30 AM.The guide mentioned we should have started early (08:00 or 09:00 am) however we decided to opt for a late start due to small baby with us.

      Emo tours was a perfect way to spend our tour in Egypt. From the pickup at the hotel, history of the pyramids, and recommendations for our tour, it was a great experience. Shout out to our guide Tonci for helping with the language barrier and providing great information about the city. He even played some fun music in the car to make the trip that much better! We had a great time and would highly recommend Emo Tours!

      Awesome! All the sights to see and all the history can be very daunting, but the tour company and Sayed Mahmoud specifically was knowledgeable, entertaining and very friendly. Answered all our questions and was patient, gracious as well as understanding when more or less time was needed at the different locations. He knows his stuff. Definitely worth recommending and engaging when you can!
