Great Day Tour, Great Guide, Great Communication
I had a long layover in Cairo and wanted to go explore Cairo and Giza for the day. I booked with Deluxe Tours two days before I arrived when a different tour company that I was booked with was not communicating effectively. After sending an initial email, Latif got back to me right away. He was very prompt and communicative through the booking process. That really gave me the confidence to book with him, especially when traveling across the world to a place I haven’t been before. After I arrived in Egypt, pick up at the airport was easy and smooth.
The tour itself was even better than I expected. My guide, Nevin was a wealth of knowledge and had the connections to get me access to some really cool locations where no other tourists were. That made for some great photos and a more exclusive experience. She was very accommodating and the tour could be altered depending on your preferences.
Overall, I I had a great experience with Deluxe Tours Egypt and highly recommend them for your visit to Egypt.

Wonderful experience, excellent guide
Very good use of time. Nice to have full attention of guide. Essam was very knowledgeable and helpful. Not only did we learn about the museum and pyramids, but also strong advice on eating and other sites to consider while in Egypt.

A perfect tour.
We had a wonderful experience on our full day tour. Our brilliant guide was Marco who organised a personal, tailor made tour that was absolutely memorable. We were taken to places that the are not normally on the tourist trail - Marco has lots of connections in the City and there are several options on the day depending on your preferences and interests. Nevan and her team are to be highly commended. Strongly recommended.

Amazing tour!
We messaged Nevin very last minute and she picked us up herself from the hotel the next morning. We had a pyramid tour & sphinx tour, and she stopped at multiple other places that we might want to check out too!
She was so so lovely & extremely knowledgeable which was a plus as she wasn't just driving us around. As two girls it was really nice to have another woman showing us around and 'protecting' us from being bombarded by people!
She played Egyptian music in the car and also got us some falafel and hummus flatbreads for the journey back to the hotel.
Really recommend Nevin! Also don't usually love loads of photos but she is really great at taking some gorgeous ones for you to remember the trip by!! She offers half day or full day trips, which can include the museum too.

Awesome experience
Excellent co-ordination and arrangements by Nevin from Deluxe Tours. Will carry awesome memories of the trip forever. Egypt was a bucket-list item and this was the first trip we took on the day of arrival to Cairo. Nevin was a wonderful host and took care of all our family needs. Highly recommend this trip and Nevin for all your egypt travel needs.

Do it
The best time all day. Nevin was an absolute superstar, so much knowledge and guidance on more than just ancient history helping us with modern Cairo too. For a group would highly recommend the private tour

Do it! The best way to see the Pyramids of Giza.
Nevin, our guide for the day, was brilliant. She picked us up from our hotel at 8am and dropped us back off at 1pm. I thought it was really good value, because without a local guide, it would have been much more difficult to have a good experience there: Nevin took care of everything. I really liked how she tailored it to what we wanted and also allowed us time to explore on our own. She is also an EXPERT at taking the best photos! She is so friendly and I really enjoyed the experience. 5 stars!

Nevin was the real deal!
One of the best tour guides we had was Nevin! She was fluent in English, an expert in historical facta, a great driver, and a great photographer on top of it all! Amazing experience!

Amazing Personalized Experience Touring Giza Pyramids, and Grand Egyptian Museum
This was my first trip to Egypt, and a friend arranged for us to have a private tour with Nevin to the Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, and the newly opened Egyptian Museum. It was a day I will never forget! Nevin’s knowledge and her ability to access places due to her connections were incredible.
The narration and education began seamlessly on our trip to the pyramids. As we drove, she showed us the Nile for a quick photo and then took us through the back roads of Giza on our way to the Pyramids. Her knowledge and delivery were incredible, feeling more like a simple conversation. We learned so much about the rich history of Egypt and the kings and queens from over 4,000 years ago.
At the Pyramids, despite the crowds, Nevin knew the exact angles to get photos as if we were the only ones there. She then took us to a tomb that, thanks to her connections, we toured alone. It was absolutely amazing—she knew exactly who to call, and instantly, a tomb was opened just for us. What an experience!
We continued to see the Sphinx and took a camel ride, enjoying another incredible view of all three Pyramids that was simply breathtaking. I cannot express enough what an incredible photographer Nevin is; she knows the exact angles and directs you perfectly to capture those perfect pictures throughout the day.
After the Pyramids and Sphinx, we visited the newly opened Grand Egyptian Museum, where Nevin continued to narrate and educate us on the incredible history of the exhibits. This museum is a must-see, and do yourself a favor by trying some authentic Egyptian food—my favorite was the spicy (or non-spicy) Hawawshi!
We left the museum and, while still in Giza, visited a local jewelry and souvenir shop where we picked up a custom-made cartouche that Nevin had arranged for us. We roamed around looking for other keepsakes to bring back with us and even got a demonstration of how they make paper from the papyrus plant, which was incredibly cool!
In summary, it was a day I will never forget, and I can’t recommend Nevin strongly enough as your tour guide. I will be back, and I will be sending everyone I know her way to get the same incredible experience we were so privileged to receive. 5-STARS!
