Two days in Cairo transformed into an unforgettable experience - Beautiful and perfect experience even for those who have little time during a stopover in Cairo. The visit to the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx was exciting, well organized and very pleasant. Special thanks to Giustino, a trained guide, kind and really impeccable in managing the times. The duration of the visit was ideal: complete, but perfectly compatible with the return to the airport. The atmosphere of the site is unique and suggestive, made even more enjoyable by the organization of the guide. Even in the busiest moments, Giustino was able to manage the course well and make everything fluid. Punctual, helpful and professional staff. Highly recommended for those on a stopover, couples, families and those who want to discover the best of Giza both in a few days and in a full week.

Right the super guide - 8 fabulous days with Giustino, as he calls himself! From Cairo to Abou Simbel, Luxor, passing through an unforgettable cruise on the Nile. Only beautiful memories!! Giustino is competent and prepared but also a very kind person with whom it was very pleasant to chat. Our kids treat him like a family friend now. We will definitely come back and recommend it to everyone! Thanks again Giustino!!

Great experience with Sofy Egypt Tours! - We had booked our trip with Sofy Egypt Tours and I am glad we chose the right operator. On the first morning we visited the Pyramids, Sphinx and later in the afternoon we visited the GEM. Our driver was Mr Mahmoud - he was great ! He was on time, made sure he did everything to make us feel comfortable. He doesn't speak English but uses Google traslate effectively. Our Guide was Ms Marian - she was kind and helpful. We were travelling with our kids 2yrs and 4 yrs. Planning it with Sofy Egypt Tours made it easy. Highly recommended!

With Giustino everything is perfect! - Giustino proved to be a careful, friendly and competent guide. He speaks very good Italian. He accompanied us for two days to visit the pyramids of Giza, the GEM, Saqqara, Menfis. He's also very patient. Highly recommended!

Timely service! - Great service from assistance at the airport also to make visas (we were a group of 11 people with children and elderly and it was very helpful) to transport by spacious and comfortable coach from the airport to the hotel and then back
