You ask and they will get it done. So easy!

Our guide Sabry was excellent, he has great communication skills and is so thoughtful and friendly. We learnt such a lot from him about the ancient histories of Egypt and current events. It was our great pleasure in getting to know him. Our brilliant driver Mustafa was always on time and took very good care of us. We definitely recommend Tailor Made Tours.

A great introduction into Egypt’s rich history

Our private tour was organized by Egypt Tailor Made and we had the great opportunity to have Mrs Hend as our guide. The whole trip was very well organized. A few days before, you are invited to a WhatsApp group so that you can already communicate in advance. Mrs Hend was extremely knowledgeable and was able to explain a lot about the history in easy to understand ways. She is also very kind and friendly, and it was a pleasure to have spent a day with her exploring Giza, Saqqara and Memphis. Our driver was also great - a great driver and also very friendly. Overall can definitely recommend this trip.

Great experience with a small caveat

Amazing experience with Tawfik, a very knowledgeable guide. The tour was very well organised and nice with a comfy car. We opted for the premium package with lunch and camel ride included. For lunch we had local food, koshari, which was very tasty. However, the camel ride was unpleasant due to a very rude camel owner who was asking for too much money, 50$ per person, and refused to accept egyptian pounds, asking for dollars and euros only. Considering that the camel ride was included, this extra money should have been the tip and we ended up paying more than 30€ as he started shouting and being aggressive, ruining the experience. Besides this we would definitely recommend booking a guided tour with Egypt tailor made tours.

Top class tour to Giza, Memphis and Saqqara with Heba ⭐️

We had an absolutely wonderful visit to the Giza and Saqqara Pyramids yesterday as well as Memphis, the ancient Egyptian capital. Seeing these ancient wonders of the world was truly awe-inspiring, and just when we thought we had seen it all, there was another surprise of the ancient Egyptians’ skills and ingenuity waiting for us. Our tour guide was Heba and our driver was Me Shabbat, both of whom were friendly and approachable. They gave us time and space at every sight and we never felt rushed. Heba was a great tour guide: warm, funny and very knowledgeable. Heba gauged our particular interests quickly and adapted her explanations accordingly. This showed her professionalism, longstanding experience as a guide and also her passion for her work. I was slightly hesitant about a private tour and that it may be awkward at times, but not so with Heba: we had such fun with her and she made us feel super-comfortable. Mr Shabbat drove us safely through the chaos of Cairo traffic. I can only recommend Heba and Egypt Tailor-Made tours to anyone.

A must do excursion

An excellent day with Mr Tawfik. He was so knowledgeable and a wonderful guide. We were able to avoid many crowded places on his advice which made the day more enjoyable. Saqqara was very interesting and the recently reopened tomb was mesmerising with floor to ceiling hieroglyphs.

Trip of a lifetime

Our guide Sabry was phenomenal. His knowledge is boundless and he ensured that our every need was met. We actually spent 4 packed days seeing each of the Cairo main attractions. We were able to customize the tour according to our personal preferences. Sabry happily worked with us to create the custom trip of a lifetime. Our driver was always punctual and we felt very safe. Smart decisions were made to avoid crowds.
