A day we will never forget! - Our family of four enjoyed an amazing private tour from Alexandria Port to see the Giza Pyramids, sphinx and a felucca ride on the Nile. We also had a fantastic lunch at a restaurant overlooking the pyramids. Our guide Rasha was terrific, her knowledge was exceptional providing us with insight into every aspect of our tour but still giving us time for private rest and to enjoy the sites privately should we want. She ensured we went to the best areas for exceptional viewing and managed our time brilliantly. Our driver was superb he was extremely professional and friendly as maneuvered our very comfortable air conditioned van through traffic and on the highways and we felt safe the whole time. We also has a security officer who travelled with us the entire trip ensuring our safety and security. He was also very friendly and he also arranged for our van to enter the Giza complex rather than having to use the public shuttles.
All in all I cannot fault this day tour. If you are in a cruise and want to see the sites of Egypt I wouldn’t hesitate to contact this company. Their correspondence is exceptional with quick and extensive responses. Their payment system is great with a small deposit and final payment on the day plus I even had management phone during the tour to ensure everything was going smooth. A brilliant and Memorial Day. Thank you Rasha and the team at Egypt Day Tours.

Perfect day. If on a... - Perfect day. If on a cruise use these guys to make you trip to Cairo as relaxing as possible.
No stress and really great day.
My wife is a double leg amputee and everything was easy for her.
The journey was not too bad either. Under 3 hours.
Our guide Mohammad was great and made our day so easy.
Would fully recommend this company and our guide and driver.
Thanks for great day

A day in the Pyramids. - We had a private tour for 3. Rasha, our guide, was amazing. She grew up in Alexandria and was very proud of her Country. Her knowledge of what we saw was exceptional.

It was just the 3 of us... - It was just the 3 of us and our guide was outstanding. I was a little disappointed that we didn't eat on our short boat trip on the nile, but at a stationery restaurant located on the Nile. They were 2 different things. Not what I had envisioned.
Of course the Pyramids and the Spinx were unimangineable.

Choose this tour! - Excellent! We arrived in Alexandria by cruise ship. We booked this excursion several weeks prior in lieu of more expensive excursions offered by our cruise line. It was a great decision. We had a private tour with educated guide and skilled driver. Do not try to drive Egypts streets and highways yourself!! A local driver who can maneuver Egypt’s freestyle driving is a must. We applaud Achmed, our driver. We were picked up perfectly on time at 7:00 am and started the 3-hour drive to Cairo. There we had full day touring the amazing museum filled with pyramid relics: tombs, sarcophagus collection, mummies, and ancient statues of kings and gods - some 3000 to 4000 years old and in original condition. And then, there was the boy king, King tut!!!! Our guide, Mohamed, was the best. He studied ancient Egyption history for 5 years before becoming a tour guide plus he has been guiding for 17 years. He made sure we saw the most important points in the vast museum. The Pyramids and Sphinx were mind-boggling! Simply astounding! This is a must-see destination in anyone’s lifetime.
A delicious lunch and choice of camel ride or boat trip on the Nile was included.
I highly recommend choosing this tour for the best Pyramid experience.

Best tour guide ever - This tour was awesome with my guide Jene who has the most knowledge of Egyptian history I was in ore of him and to boot a great person The pyramids in giza what can you say except Wow and because I was with him didn't get harassed then we went on a Nile cruise for lunch which was fantastic and I'm a fussy eater and to finish the day went on a felluka ride down the Nile it was a long day but worth every penny also my driver Ahmed was a terrific guy do your self a favor and go to Egypt 🇪🇬 and book with Egypt Day Tours I promise you that you won't be disappointed I will definitely come again

Best of the best with Hagi at the pyramids - What an incredible day! We were so fortunate to have Haggag ( nickname Hagi) as our tour guide. He shared so much interesting information with us and even volunteered to be our photographer for the day…snapping photos of my husband and me at the most scenic spots. It was also reassuring to have him by our side to deal with local vendors. An amazing day! Highly recommend! Thank you Hagi. 💙
