          A unique experience in Cairo!
          A unique experience that I highly recommend! Thanks to our excellent tour guide, Mohamed, we learned a lot about history, took fantastic photos, had fun, and enjoyed new experiences. We had a full day, and it was so well organized that we were not tired at all! Definitely, worth the experience for every visitor!

          Great Cairo trip with Mohamed and Hussain
          We were in Cairo for 2 days and wanted to see the Pyramids and the Museum. Our guide Mohamed made sure we maximize the trip. He speaks fluent English and keeps a deep.knowledge of Egyptian history. He is super friendly and my 10 years old son never left his sight. He helped us to understand how to go around locally,specially in the Bazar. He also took us to a great Shawarma place and we all loved it. He takes great photos as well. So highly recommend for a great experience in Cairo.

          Superb experience :)
          We all went to the pyramids of Giza and Memphis on first day. On the second day we were in Cairo to see mosque, synagogue and Coptic church. The third day was great in Alexandria. Our guide Mohamed Gaber was great! And our driver Ahmed Nasser is very skilled and safe driver - he drive us across Egypt like pro!

          Exceptional Tour Guide Experience with Mohamed Gaber in Cairo
          Our experience with Mohamed Gaber as our tour guide in Cairo was nothing short of exceptional. His profound knowledge of the historical and geographical significance of the sites we visited left us in awe. Initially booked for a single day excursion to explore the pyramids of Sakkara and Giza, along with Memphis, the Papyrus institute, and other attractions, Mohamed surpassed our expectations. He exhibited remarkable patience, especially with the children, willingly answering our questions multiple times and reiterating information without hesitation. Moreover, he seamlessly coordinated additional activities such as camel rides and boat excursions at a very short notice. Impressed by his professionalism and expertise, we extended our engagement for another day to discover the Citadel, museums, and other highlights of Cairo. Mohamed's guidance made navigating the city effortless, and his insights enriched our understanding in ways we couldn't have achieved on our own. Not to mention, he introduced us to some really good local food. Without reservation, I highly recommend Mohamed Gaber for anyone planning a trip to Egypt. His expertise and demeanor truly enhanced our experience, and I have no doubt he will do the same for others.

          Gamal Komaty has given my family a great tour of the old city of Cairo. We saw everything we wanted to see and had a lovely lunch too. Gamal was extremely informative with so many facts about the Citadel and the old city. Thank you for letting our family enjoy your city. Thanks, Danny

          Everything was thanks to our tour guide
          Truly, the best thing that happened to us in Egypt was meeting our tour guide, Muhammed Gaber. He brought everything to life as if we were traveling through history, explaining everything to us. I don't think there was anything we didn't learn. Besides informing us on every topic, he also kept us safe and ensured we had a peaceful holiday by warning us about many things. We highly recommend everyone to visit Egypt with Muhammed Gaber. His fluent English and extensive knowledge, along with his kindness, gave us peace of mind. If we go to Egypt again, we would go just to hear from Muhammed again.

          The best tour in Cairo
          We had a wonderful experience with our guide Mohamed and driver Hussein. Mohamed is so knowledgeable and kind that this long tour passed by like a dream, a step back into the past. Hussein was always on time and helpful. I would also like to recommend Asma, our tour coordinator who communicated with me all the time making sure that everything goes smoothly.

          Great day trip!
          We had a really good day trip visiting the Giza pyramids, Sakkara and Memphis. Our tour guide Gamal was really knowledgeable and took good care of us . Only downside was the visit to Giza pyramids which felt a bit rushed but nonetheless quite an enjoyable experience

          Very good guideing!
          My trip to Egypt was amazing, and it would for sure not have been as good as it was if i did not have my private guide Mohamed Gaber with me. He has so much knowledge about all the history of Egypt, and although it is a lot of history, i did not feel like it was too much information. He told me all the things that i feel was important to know about all the places we went to. For me it was a great experience. Mohamed was a really relaxed and kind person that offered a great service with his guideing.

          Amazing experience, would definitely recommend!
          We only had 2 days in Cairo and booking a tour was the only way we could see most sights. It was a wonderful experience! Our tour guide, Mohamed Gaber, was extremely knowledgeable, and offered us many little-known historical facts that otherwise we wouldn't be able to find on our own, as well as some interesting information about life in modern day Cairo. He was also very helpful, kind and had a great sense of humor. Our driver was also excellent. They made this an one in a lifetime experience! Thank you so much!

          My friend and I decided to book a tour because we only had 2 days in Cairo. Best decision ever! Our tour guide, Mohamed Gaber, was absolutely fantastic! He was extremely knowledgeable, answered all our questions and provided details and little-known historical facts that we would have never been able to find ourselves. That, combined with his kindness and sense of humor, turned a 2-day trip into an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime experience. Thank you Mohamed!

He shows a profound knowledge of the Egyptian culture and is always ready to patiently answer all your questions! We highly recommend booking the visit to the pyramids, saqqara, museums and any other places with Mohamed!

        Today we visited the Museum guided by Khaled Elmasry. Khaled fully explained the history of Egypt while showing us the artifacts within the museum. He was patient with us looking at things and was able to provide detailed information to all questions we had regarding anything. Definitely recommend having Khaled as a guide as he was a great one for our family today!

        The tour of today was great. We visit the National Museum and Aladdin explain us everything about the mommies and the importance of them for the Egyptian heritage. Also we visit the most beautiful mosque in Egypt and told us about the whole story. We have even time to buy nice gift for friends and family all made in Egypt. Definitely one of the nicest days in my trip.

        Our three days with Bassam were incredible!
        Today we went into Kairo to visit the Egyptian and the civilization museum. He was very flexible about the schedule and gave us plenty of time to explore the museums on our own after he explained the most important pieces to us.
        I highly recommend you take your next trip with him for an amazing experience!

        We got lucky to have Gamal our fantastic tour guide, he was very patient and informative. His knowledge of Egypt and ancient kingdoms is vast and thoroughly explained many unique facts especially in the museum.

        The restaurant for lunch was very nice. He even made the extra effort to help me when I didn't have internet reception and to ensure we were handed over to our next tour guide for the evening.

        Great work also from our driver Alaa for delivering us to our sites safely.

        Thank you Comfort Egypt Tours and Gamal for the awesome experience!

        Highly recommended ☺️.

        Mohamed Mustafa Ahmed the one and only! Famous for his expertise in the Egyptian culture and history, famous for his television appearances and passion for creating memories that will last more than one life time.

        This man brought me and my family of 5 closer to the Egyptian history than we ever could have wished for. We saw the pyramids, we traveled trough the dessert on a couple of camels, explored the famous cat, lion and man statue also called The Sphinx and much much more.

        Incredible experience for the whole family with many new memories, laughs and also an 101 course in the Egyptian culture and history. He did the work this man, if he weren’t such a good guide I would’ve thought he was a model photographer because this man knows how you should pose in a picture.

        Again, Mohamed Mustafa Ahmed you will always be remembered for your passion, joyful way of living life and kindness towards everyone. Shukran Lak.

        Our guide Maher and driver Karim were good! Very friendly and fun two days. Cars were air conditioned and comfortable. Maher had lots of interesting things to say about both ancient Egyptian history and more modern history and Islam. Water was provided for free, and we were taken to a nice spot for lunch. Would recommend Maher for a fun and friendly tour!
