SIMPLY THE BEST TOUR GUIDE - Our Lady Guide was absolutely the best! Knowledgable, patiently answering all of my excited questions, passionate and on top of that a very sweet and kind person(along with her husband who we met breefly!) Willing to teach everything beyond tour as well😊 She was open to discuss everything related to the tour and history while also explaining the culture to someone who spend childhood dreaming about Ancient Egypt. She also didnt mind explaining culture, language and customs of the people nowadays (we went during Ramadan). She was kind enough that she didnt mind answering a few personal questions as well. I am impressed with her knowledge and the trip was absolutely amazing! She seemed to be happy of how curious and excited I was😊 (while not forgetting to explain what we are talking about to my husband😂). We shared a sweet moment of fangirling over pharaoh Hatshepsut as well❤️ Its clear to see she is deeply connected to the history of her country and takes pride to pass this love to others. The tour was well structured and well thought of, we were taken care of every step of the way! We absolutely loved it in every bit. If you want the in-depth tour where you can go beyond just simpy viewing attractions and learn a bit more this is it! Highly recommended!❤️ Nana&Tomek

Look no more and book with King Farouk!! Amazing Service!! - King Farouk’s service was amazing. Look no more and book with King Farouk!! It will be the best thing you do, and you will be extremely pleased with the service provided!! From the moment I messaged, I received prompt and helpful information and service. My wife and I felt very comfortable from the instant we started discussions for the tour options. We booked a 1-day private tour of the Giza plateau. Everything was planned and scheduled perfectly to meet our needs. The booking was easy and seamless. The cost was very reasonable, and the service was the best we had during our entire trip! AMAZING!!! You can see and feel how kind and professional the entire team was and they made sure we had everything we could possibly want. They were always looking after us and taking care for everything we needed. We were able to do and see everything we wanted and had the most amazing guide and tour experience. The information was perfect and bespoke to what we were interested in seeing and hearing. I would use King Farouk services for all future Egypt visits, everything was so amazing! 1000% recommend these services and can assure you this will be the best tour service provider you ever experience!!

They treated us like queens 👸 - Talk about EXCEPTIONAL!!! Farouk has been so fantastic at helping us with many things whilst we’ve been in Cairo. He and his team have looked after us like Queens! Today we took two 4x4 out to Valley of the Whales and we had THE BEST TIME!! Farouk and his drivers were so much FUN and really made it such a special experience for us. He made everything easy and we felt very taken care of. I’m so glad we found him and that we’ve had the pleasure to have him and his team look after us. Would highly recommend 🙏🏼

Reliable service, good communication, knowledgable guides - Farouk provides an excellent guiding service. He guided our study tour group himself, and also provided a guide for a tour for two of us to the al Qarafa/City of the Dead, followed by an airport transfer. Guides were knowledgeable, driver was safe and helpful, and everything ran to time so we got to the airport without any problems. Communication was excellent, and being able to pay by bank transfer was much appreciated.

Highly recommended private tour guide - We had an amazing experience visiting the pyramids in Egypt! The tour was perfectly organized and tailored to our preferences, making it a truly customized experience. The vehicle was comfortable and well-maintained, and the driver was excellent—safe and punctual, ensuring a smooth journey throughout. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights into the history and culture of the pyramids and ancient Egypt. He was also friendly and attentive, answering all our questions and adapting the tour to our interests. If you're looking for a personalized and hassle-free way to explore Egypt, I highly recommend using King Farouk private tour guide.

A true expert guide - We spent a day in Cairo under the expert guidance of King Farouk, starting from the archaeological site of Giza and then moving on to the Al-Qarafa neighborhood and ending with the Coptic neighborhood. Farouk is an exceptional, experienced, friendly and pleasant guide. He knows how to make you appreciate Cairo, Egypt and its history. He speaks English in a correct and very understandable way. A certainty for a visit to Cairo!

The best way to see Egypt with King himself - We wanted a worry-free, planning free vacation in Egypt. King Farouk delivered on it with excellent performance. We just gave him a list of what we wanted to see and level of comfort expected. He took those requirements and came up with an excellent plan and everything was addressed. His team receives you at immigration. After collecting your luggage you are handed over to Farouk himself waiting outside the airport. He will be in round the clock contact for your entire stay, until he sees you off at the airport for return journey. Ours was an extensive trip involving Planes, Cars, Camels,cruise ship & boats. He arranged a trip covering Alexandria, Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, and the visit to Nubian village during our cruise part of the segment. We had a dedicated guide and driver throughout the trip. All our dietary needs were addressed. To top it off Farouk took us to local specialty eateries in Cairo which we would never have discovered and missed out on rich Egyptian cuisine. He was able to show the rich history of Egypt from the famous sites to not so famous sites. He covered from the Pharaonic era to the last royals era. We were there from Nov 17-27; 2023. Initially we were worried about the geopolitical situation, but he kept us abreast of the situation and made sure our concerns were addressed by responding immediately to any queries while we were in US. Egypt was safe, and we never felt at risk. The hotel on the river Nile was excellent. Thank you Farouk, Fatma and entire team for making the Egypt trip very memorable. We whole heartedly recommend Farouk & his team for planning and executing a great Egypt itinerary. Looking forward to planning a Jordan trip with him next.

Best day ever! - Seeing Egypt has been a dream, and being here with Mohamed as my guide brought that dream to an ultimate reality. Fun, adventurous and unexpected experiences made our day one of the most memorable of our visit! He took the time to answer every question and present exciting sites at every turn. He also was highly welcomed by everyone we met! Highly recommend Mohamed!
