Unforgettable Egyptian Highlights!

Highly recommended. Visiting Dahshur, Saqqara and Memphis has been the highlight of our trip to Egypt. Climbing down into the Bent Pyramid was an amazing experience. Our guide and driver were wonderful.

Great experience with an excellent guide

Walid was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and helpful, gave us information at the right times without overwhelming. Sakkara, Dashur and Memphis were all incredible and the tour was just the right length

Top tour, great guide

We had two separate tours with Ahamed as our guide and he gave us the best start to loving Egypt that we could have asked for. Our tours became not only a wonderful introduction to Cairo and its sights, but a fun, friendly and imformative journey through a great city. There is so much to see and Ahamed covered all the sights with extensive knowledge and great people skills, to the extent we felt part of a family rather than just on a tour. That set us up for loving the rest of our Egyptian trip, thanks to his enthusiasm for what he does. Emo tours were excellent and they have a gem in Ahamed. I couldn't recommend this tour any more highly.

Tour Guide had poor language skills.

She had a cold when she took us on the tour, and her English was not so good. She claimed to also speak Chinese, but it was not good enough. She had asked for extra fee for doing a bilingual tour, but she was no good in either language. We went to the sights and enjoyed it anyway. The minivan was convenient as it took us everywhere and we did not have to worry about transportation at all.

An insight to the the other pyramids that are equally as amazing!

Very relaxed fun and informative day. The guide Sayed Mahmoud and driver Farak were both very professional and good company. The food at the restaurant was absolutely delicious. It’s worth every penny and we are so pleased that we had the best guide and a driver.

Nice experience to learn about the pyramids with good company.

We had a great time at this tour! We learned the stories behind the pyramids we visited and enjoyed this history dive so much! Our guide tour and the driver were friendly and lighthearted. We laughed a lot with them. Lunch was also very good. Traditional Egyptian cuisine with tasty flavors. We recommend this tour!

Very interesting trip

Excellent tour to less visited sites in Egypt. We had an excellent guide and driver. Not only did we see fascinating sites, pyramids etc.. our guide was able to give us a full history of the pyramids and the site of Memphis. We also got to see how life is lived outside Cairo which was really interesting. Lunch was included and it was delicious. Must mention our excellent driver, the Cairo traffic was crazy but he got us safely back to our hotel.
