Best Egypt trip. - This time we toured the Giza Pyramids, the Sphinx and the museum. There is also a bit of shopping. The guide, Sayed Mahmoud, was very good at explaining things and although I am not very good at English, the explanations were easy to understand. I would recommend this tour to Japanese people whose English is not good. It was very blender! We had a lot of photos taken at the most photogenic spots. Lunch is buffet style and you can eat Egyptian food. I was able to eat well. Even though we only had one day to visit Giza, it was good that you showed us so much in an efficient way. Dear Sayed Mahmoud, Thank you for a fun day!

Enjoyable & interesting day tour - We had a great time on our tour with Sayed Mahmoud, he is very knowledgeable & friendly, and took us to places we wanted to see & skipped some stops we had already seen on our request. We enjoyed our day on the tour.

Museum and Giza plateau - Layover tour. Family. Parents, me and my brother. Sayed Mahmoud, our guide was amazing. He is very kind and took care of us. We had a layover of about 16hrs, and we did the Cairo tour in about 7 hrs. Sayed took us to the museum first which was a great idea (rather than going to the pyramids first) because of the air conditioning. Haha. He showed us around and knew all the best spots for group pictures. We stopped on the Nile bridge for a quick photo op. The the pyramids were really good. Sayed took us to the panoramic spot and the photos are just muaah. The best part is that Sayed handled it when we were stopped by an angry security guard at the pyramids. Police wasn't allowing our big camera zoom lens inside. Sayed made quick work of it and we didn't even had to come into the conversation. Over all a great day. I recommend Sayed 200%...... And he never pushed us to buy anything, rather handled the pestering hawkers. Guard + guide all in one. - Ashish and family.

Whirlwind tour! - It was great to be able to experience some of Egypt in our 11 hour layover. It is a busy place and would probably need a couple of days as to not make it so tiring

Celebrating Eid - Sayed Mahmoud was a WONDERFUL guide. I would highly reccomend him to anyone visiting. He went above and beyond to show us the cutest food spots, picture ops, and places/pieces of cultural importance. The day was everything we wanted and more! Pyramids, camels, museum exhibits, bazaar, perfumes, ans pastries. Shoutout to Henny for driving us all over Cairo. Best Eid EVER!!!! ♡♡♡

A full layover tour in Cairo - I was treated to a great tour by Essam. I was picked up bright and early at the airport and we sped away to through the busy Cairo streets to the Pyramids. The rest of the day was filled with great sights and amazing experiences. Highly recommended!

Worst Experience I Ever Had. DONT Use EMO!!! - I do regret booking with EMO. They lack honesty, professionalism, punctuality, and good planning. They use their drivers as guides while I paid for a tour that includes an Egyptologist guide. The personnel that I was texting for details about the tour was writing very bad English that could be hardly understood and communication was very poor. I do not believe it is a company in the true sense of word that is why I could advise you with rest that you should never book wit EMO as it is just a waste of time and money.
