Excellent excursions with MANAL. Timeliness and attention
We did 2 tours with MANAL and our excellent driver Hamdi, to the Giza Pyramids, including Saqqara and Memphis, and to other places of interest. We also toured Alexandria. On both tours he was always 15min before the time advising that he arrived, lots of information about the places we visited, time to take pictures and excellent photos taken from his side, also helped us with dealing with the locals. I also helped us get other tour options to help us with the itinerary and information to consider to get around Egypt! More than satisfied with our guide and driver.

Terrible daytrip from Alexandria from Cairo
We were cheated and did not have the tour as decriben on Emo homepage.
Lenght of the tour:
• We wered picked up at 07:00 as planned but we where back at the hotel at 17:00 (with traffic) so that makes our tour at least 2 hours shorter than it was supposed to be, according to the website.
• Ahmed (the guide) stopped at each place for a very short period of time and did not give us any time to walk around the area to have a closer look at things or to take photos.
No lunch at local restaurant as stands on the webside:
• Ahmed kept pushing us to finish visiting all of the sites before eating lunch and did not mention a local restaurant as an option. We ended up with one shawarma each and had to eat it in the car on the go, that was not very nice, nor comfortable.
Some places skipped:
• We only stopped in front of the Citadel for about 5 minutes and took like 2 pictures from a far distance, he did not offer us to go inside (and the citadel where the lighthouses last stones were used to build the Citadel of Qaitbay) or go closer, when we asked he told us it was empty inside anyways and nothing to see. That left us with only 5 minues at the Citadel.
• We stopped at the roman theatre but only for 8 minutes and we where rushed out of there.
• Then after the library we had to push him to let us see the library and the bay form the out side as we wanted to take photos of the cornish. He was rude and told us it was not included (a walk on the Quatbay was in the description) but we pushed him and he gave us a 5 min stop on the side of the street, all while eating our shawarma and take a quick photo shoot.
• He did not take us to see El Mursi Abu Elabas so we did not even go to that area or get to take our free walk on the corniche.
Emo tours - have apologised and refunded 1/3 of the price. However, that will not bring to me the things I wanted to se in Alexandria and did not see, aparently this Guied who took os on the trip, can not be trusted.

Emo Tours is a fantastic company, with great people!
My friend and I decided to book multiple tours with EMO tours after having a great experience with our first tour in the Pyramids with Nesma. She was super friendly and the driver Ihab was polite and welcomed us with snacks and a friendly demeanour upon arrival at our hotel. Nesma was a breath of fresh air and a seasoned tour guide.
We enjoyed this experience so much, we booked a boat cruise on the Nile for the same night with Ahmed. Both Ahmed and the driver were great. Because of a second good experience, we booked a THIRD tour for the following day to Alexandria.
The EMO Tours company was overall FANTASTIC. They were friendly, fast, patient and made us feel very comfortable.
For our Alexandria tour, our driver, Fares, welcomed us at our hotel with a friendly smile and made us feel like close friends; Our tour guide for Alexandria, Mohamed Salama, was amazing in his knowledge of Alexandria history and also made us feel like close friends. We enjoyed a day of laughs, questions, and beautiful photography. Mohamed knew all the great spots and where to take the best photos. I would definitely recommend any of my friends or family to use their services. They are a great value for the price, superior service, and welcoming hospitality from all employees. If you are thinking of doing any tours in Egypt, you will not be disappointed by this company and the great employees I mentioned.
If we booked THREE times; I think it speaks for itself!

Day Tour From Cairo To Alexandria
This is a tour you will love. We had a Tour Guy Essam,
He was very knowledgeable about the History of Egypt.
The Tour was Amazing, his English was awesome also which helped guide the tour perfect. Essam’s will have your best interest at heart. Allow him to select the restaurant of choice. My husband and I had the most beautiful lunch together while viewing the Mediterranean Sea.

I booked my ticket the day before and I must say I was very pleased with this tour! My tour guide Saeyd Shokry, showed up on time in my hotel lobby to pick me up with a private driver and car. He was very pleasant and speaks good English. He took me to all the places in the itinerary, an added bonus Pompei's Pilar, and explained all the history that goes along with it. He was very nice to even help me navigate steps, take my pictures, and didn't rush me at all. We went to have lunch and he stayed with me the whole time during the trip even on his breaks. Visiting Egyot was a very memorable experience for me! So much history and simply magnificent! A must see!!

Absolutely wonderful!
Alexandria is was a delight to visit with my tour guide Abdul. Looked after me very well on this trip and knew a lot about the history behind Alexandria.The catacomb was amazing due to the fact of the integration seen on tbe drawings from the Romans with the Egyptians. The citadel was also fantastic to see, especially how well preserved it is, plus the amazing view of the city and sea is a bonus.

Ola Tour Guide Review
Ola was a great tour guide and I would really recommend her for this trip! She stops midway to get you snacks, and has great energy. She gives great information throughout the trip and is very organized. It was a great trip and I had lots of fun! She even took us to this amazing place for lunch with an incredible view. I would really recommend her for this trip.
