Highly recommended!! - Egypt has been on my bucket list for the longest time, having a tour guide like Mahmoud Hoka made this experience unforgettable. The whole tour was wonderful starting with the pick up at the hotel on a clean car and nice driver, followed for a super informative tour to the Pyramids (Mahmoud was incredible making sure we had the best pictures, stopping on the vest views and points of history and super knowledgeable) , we even ride a camel to immerse ourselves fully in the experience. After that we had lunch in a clean and good authentic Egyptian food. After that we went to khan al khalili to experience and see closely the Egyptian market, this is the part I loved because there was not pushy selling of any service or souvenirs, it was truly to see fist hand the market and the highlights of it. And to finish our day we finish with the Egyptian museum where we had a detailed explanation of everything. We can’t recommend this tour enough! They made our visit to Egypt memorable!

High recommended tour - It was a day which we’ll never forget. We were very lucky to have had Raina as our guide throughout the day. She has very patiently and competently answered all of our questions, and has also told us about Cairo, the cohesion between all faiths and so much more. Highly recommended tour, it certainly made us think that we’d like to come back and do this tour again.

Our Pyramid Honeymoon - Zainab has tremendous knowledge, easy going attitude, everything dialed in and mostly a very calming attitude. She took us through the pyramids, museum, buffet lunch and made this so much easier than we. Would’ve thought. Definitely recommend.

Wondrous glimpse into Cairo, Giza and its treasures - The tour starts at 8am sharp, be prepared for a long day. Mahmoud our guide was excellent with a wide range of knowledge about ancient Egypt and the city of Cairo and Giza. His driver whose name escapes me negotiated our trip with skilful accuracy through the streets and roads. The trip kicks off at the Pyramids which is a wonderful experience with Mahmoud providing expert explanations. The trip includes visits to a scent shop, papayas shop, and a local Egyptian buffet for lunch, all authentic and wonderful experiences. We asked to visit a jewellery store which was arranged and again lived up to expectations. Our visit ended at the Egyptian museum and was expertly guided by Mahmoud. The mark of the boy kind is a wonder. This concluded our trip for us. If you want to see Cairo in a day give Mahmoud and his team a call!

Great tour, but avoid shops - Tour was great and guide did speak english pretty well. The only thing is that shops are quite expensive and I would never buy in them again

Great guide - Fatima was a very great tour guide, tho we had to skip the market due to traffic she still made the effort of showing around and take some nice photos. She’s very knowledgeable about the Egyptian history, she also knows the city and country very well. Overall really enjoyed her guide and recommend you booking her if possible.

Karam is the best! - Karam was extremely knowledgeable about everywhere we went, from the Egyptian museum, pyramids and even the cafes in the bazaar! I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to see the highlights of Cairo. He spent 5 years researching artifacts from the museum!
