Good organization and client orientation

Very good communication and quick responses. We took one day tour to Cairo by plane. It was really good logistically organized. After arriving 2,5 hours in Pyramids and after the lunch visiting the GEM which is brilliant.

Everything wonderful

Everything was great. We were a small group of only 4 people, so we were very flexible and could see everything for as long as we wanted. All in all a very nice trip with mega many impressions.

Good experience

This trip was truly beautiful and well organized. From the flight to Cairo to visiting the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum, everything felt smooth and comfortable. The guide explained the history in a simple and interesting way, which made the experience even more special. Seeing the Pyramids in real life was a dream come true. It was a peaceful, memorable, and perfectly planned day.

Misleading text, lack of communication, nice guide! Fun day.

Misleading text on tripadviser. It says including entrance fees and taxes, this is not the case later, We had to choose the old 75euro or the new museum 85 euro. (much more than actual entrance ) This had to be paid in cash to the taxi driver. selecting resort Hurghada as pick up was very cumbersome. Day trip booked for Thursday, this had to be moved to Friday due to flight. Once dropped off with another couple at the airport on Hurghade without text and explanation, we had to wait for the tour guide. After a lot of contact with Famco tours it turned out that we were only going to meet them in Cairo.... once there a super nice good speaking English Guide!! Had a very nice day. To the pyramids, an optional boat trip (no obligation) lunch at restaurant and been to the new Egyptian museum. (And some tourist lures) a very nice tiring day!! Return trip went smoothly.

Fascinating trip, super guide, points for improvement for organization.

Fantastic to see the pyramids life and visit the new Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Long day, very special with some areas for improvement for the organization. Super guide, friendly, knowledgeable and very flexible. Day before we learned that we had a German-speaking group (booked in English, fortunately we also speak some German) and that our hotel is outside the city limit so would cost more. The tranfer taxi was really "low budget", hwt private van in Cairo was top. Nevertheless, based on price performance more than satisfied with the total.

Worthwhile but a bit exhausting

The first booking was cancelled by the organizer, we got a new offer for a small group of up to 8 people the following day. Everything went smoothly, the round trip was of course long and exhausting, but the drivers were understanding, even when it came to small breaks. Hannah, our deutsspr. Guide told us everything we needed to know about the destinations and still allowed us the freedom to explore. Although we had not booked it, the papyrus factory and visit to the perfume and oil shop were still at return after 24 hours after pickup from our hotel gege 0:15. It was a worthwhile ride, despite the long distance and the long time.

Lovely experience seeing the beautiful pyramids of Giza

We had a lovely experience today with our tour guide Ahmed, he was calm, kind and had good knowledge of the pyramids of Giza, we enjoyed seeing the pyramids and sphinx followed by lovely Egyptian lunch of kushary followed by dessert of rice and bread pudding. A nice experience.
