A great day in Cairo - We were picked up on time from the port of Alexandria. Our guide contacted us before arrival so we found the meeting point without any problems. The trip to Cairo was entertaining and informative. We visited the pyramids and the sphinx, got a lot of interesting information without getting boring. The subsequent camel ride was fun and was also organized in advance. Afterwards we drove to Cairo Tower to enjoy the view. At the end, we had a late lunch, so we could make our way back to Alexandria stronger. Our guides were very eager all day to give us a wonderful time, were open to last minute changes of plans and also had spontaneous ideas themselves. They were always in a good mood. Many photos were taken, so you also have really nice memories of this day. Many thanks to Moataz abd Allah kalosha. Mohamed Mando . You made the day very special.

Best Tour Guide for Alexandria & Cairo! - My sister & I had an amazing day in Alexandria with Mohamed (Mimo)! We were picked up promptly on time and enjoyed a full day of sightseeing and lunch in Alexandria. Mohamed is not only knowledgeable, he is passionate, about the history of Alexandria & Egypt. He shared his culture and customs with us & his English is flawless. He made our tour exceed our expectations. We would highly recommend utilizing his services.

Worth doing this trip - Our trip to Alexandria was great. Our guide Eslam had great knowledge about the sites we were seeing and we learnt a lot from him. The Catacombs were my highlight and lunch by the water was also really good. Thanks for a fantastic day.

The best tour company in Egypt: Cairo Top Tours. They promise and they deliver. - They are the best in the game. From the moment we landed Ramez Maher made sure that we had fun while giving us the deep history of Egypt and ensuring our safety.The driver Mohamed Abdelsalam was a true professional. Not forgetting the lady who was our tour guide in Alexandria, Ms. Manal. Thumbs up to Cairo Top Tours,the real top tiers who give you value for your money. If visiting Egypt I highly recommend them. Thank you once more CTT. You are the best
