          Our tour guide will pick you up from your hotel at 10.00 am, to start your tour to the Egyptian Museum, where you can see a rare collection of 5000 years of art which is considered the largest most precious collection of Egyptian art in the world, the Egyptian Museum in Cairo attracts millions of visitors each year. The highlight for most are the rooms containing the priceless treasures of King Tutankhamun. His 6 gold gilded coffins, each one smaller and more intricately decorated than the last, dominate the main hall, while his magnificent death mask is the must-see item of the day. The Royal Mummies Room (additional cost) is another highlight of the Egyptian Museum. Here you can see the mummies of many great Egyptian rulers, including Ramses II, the builder of the temples at Abu Simbel and at the end of your tour you will be escorted back to your hotel.

          Holy Adventure
          This was a great experience. Our tour guide Emad was a great host. He took us to multiple Coptic Christian Churches located in old Cairo. The significance of these Churches is they hid the Holy Family. Meaning the churches served as a place of refuge for Jesus, Mary & Joseph. We also had the opportunity to visit the Fort built by Muhammad Ali and the Mosque 🕌 inside the fort.

          A fabulous introduction to Giza & Pyramids
          This was a very good, professional and tour, highly recommended if you want to take in some of the great sites of Giza, Pyramids, Memphis, Dahshur and the Sphinx. My driver and guide were really terrific and I gained a lot more understanding of these amazing places.

          Precise organisation, deep knowledge, helpful attitude. They love what they do.
          The driver drove safely, which was very important for me after a previous day of walking between cars, which was very chaotic for me... The guide adapted my poor English skills to the knowledge he had to impart about the Pyramids, the royal dynasties and also talked about the history of the area and the country as a whole. I thank him very much for a great day!

          The Saqqara archeological site was a very good experience

          A well planned trip covering all the highlights of Giza
          It was a well planned and paced trip covering Giza pyramids, sphinx, Saqqara, Dashur and Memphis. The guide, Mr Emad Mamdou was a friendly and jovial personality, who alongwith the guided tour to the attractions, also gave in few "local tips and tricks" and glimpse into the local culture and lifestyle. Overall a value for money trip.

          giza sphinx saqqara and memphis tour
          Our guide was very good, he explained to us the things we needed to see and know, and he also took our photos in the places where we needed to take photos. Everything was as it should be. We were picked up from our hotel on time and dropped off back to our hotel. We would like to thank Muhammad Hosein and our taxi driver.

          A tour with Passion and Love for Egypt
          This is more than 5 stars!!! Mohamed, my tour guide is very knowledgeable, not only of the place and the culture but of course with history. He has explained to me the history of Egypt briefly and had answered my questions very well. Her also have tips on how we, as tourists, be safe around Egypt. I have also asked him about what food to eat and where to eat it and he recommended some restaurants. As a bonus, he takes great pictures too! It is also a private tour so I can go whenever I want. Definitely someone who is passionate in his work and shows love for the country's rich history. Would definitely recommend.

          Mohamed is the best!
          As a woman solo traveler is very difficult to be a tourist in muslim countries. Mohamed Husein was not only teaching me egyptian history bur he was also my personal bodyguard and photographer! He took good care of me and showed me around the most astonishing monuments in the world. He was resilient and made sure I took advantage of the tour. We went to Saqara and the admin there was terrible, but Mohamed got into line and made sure we got the tickets to get in before the big bus tourist get in. This made an unforgettable experience. Thank you!

          I had a fantastic experience tour Alexandria with Mohammed and Hassan. I really enjoyed chatting with them. A great day
          The tour to Alexandria from Cairo was a great day. Mohammed was a very good guide picked me up as organised on time. He is very knowledgeable on the sites I went to and made the entry process easy. Mohammed is very helpful and will answer all your questions. The driver Hassan was very good and safe getting through the traffic with so many vehicles on the road. I was very happy with the service Mohammed and Hassan provided. I would recommend going with them on a tour in Cairo and Alexandria. They both did the Pyramid tour with me and provided the same excellent service. Keep up the great work showing the highlights of Egypt.

        The Egyptian museum is a must see attraction. I was super excited to see the two real mummies which are still kept at the museum.
        A special thanks to Abla my guide, she was extremely knowledgeable and had a lot of information on everything at the museum and also when we travelled to different locations. A smiling face and as I was a solo traveller she did accommodate and clicked my pictures without even asking. Mostafa drove me around safely, he was on time at all the locations and very welcoming.

        Thank you for this lovely opportunity and making it an experience worth to remember.

        Our tour was phenomenal! The car ride was equipped with air conditioning, good music, and the best tour guide, Emad! He is so knowledgeable about all of the exhibits and even suggested a delicious lunch option!

        The Egyptian Museum is a must visit so why not go with the best!!!
