Cairo day tour with sunrise felluca ride along Nile river - Exploring Cairo is a bit challenging for a lady traveller like us. So it’s better to have a tour guide to have a comfortable and convenient tour. We are happy to have Sayyed Mahmoud as our guide. We are axle to maximize our day tour because our trip has been customized as per our preference. He was very efficient and can communicate well so he understand what we want to do. To our guide and driver, they are really accommodating and friendly. We having a big brother during our tour. Highly recommended.

A Magnificent Trip to Cairo Pyramids. - My wife & I just got back to our cruise ship tonight. We were tired but the excursion was great. Karim our guide was very responsible & professional. He was always with us throughout the day. We enjoyed the visits to the pyramids, museum & bazaar in Cairo. We are very happy with his guiding & the driver too. They drove down from Cairo to fetch us & sent us back safely... making 4 runs in total! It is a 3 hours drive from Cairo to Port Said & vice versa. Poor chappy having to drive for so many hours. We highly recommend Emo Tours Egypt. 👍👍

amazing civilization - Excellent tour and attention, I recommend the private tour to the pyramids of Giza, market and museum in the day, at night Dinner on the Nile River with music and a show is magnificent, thanks to Tayso, Josep and Rewan, they are extraordinary people who speak Spanish very well and show the warmth of the Egyptian people. Meeting people with a big heart will always be the most wonderful experience in life.

Long drive big reward - We enjoyed our day very much! Our cruise ship was a bit late and our guide did a great job of communication and was waiting for us when we were able to disembark. He was full of information and very pleasant-always checking on our needs. The journey from Port Said to Cairo is long! Our guide filled the time with lots of historical facts and gave us a quick stop on the way. Very accommodating in every way. The pyramids are impressive! Due to our late start, our time in the museum was a bit rushed and we could only see the most important exhibits. At first I felt that our time was slighted, but we ran into a major traffic jam on the way back to the ship and only had a few minuets to spare. So in the end, I appreciated that he knew better than I did to plan for the unexpected.

Great tour from an incredible team!!! - Absolutely fantastic tour of Cairo and the Pyramids with our outstanding guide, Mahmoud Anwar, and our incredible driver, Mr. Hany! Mahmoud speaks excellent English, provides insightful commentary, and gets you to all the best spots for views and photographs. As a bonus, he has a great sense of humor. Mr. Hany navigated the insane Cairo and Port Said traffic with ease -- his driving was simultaneously exhilarating and mesmerizing, yet we never felt at risk. Perfect team for an incredible tour. 100% recommend!!

Cairo with limited time - We had a good day overall. Ahmed Essam was our guide and gave us a huge amount of history and information on all of our stops. The pyramids were of course the highlight. It’s a long journey from the cruise port to Cairo and they were very accommodating when we asked for a bathroom stop. I only gave them a 4 because we were very rushed at the end, at the museum- which honestly would have been where I would have preferred to spend more time. There was alot of “set up” for those instagram type photos and had I known how the timeline on the day was going to go… I would have opted for a whole lot less of that. When we saw the camels, the guide said we could ride them, which we did not because I felt it would take alot of time out of our day, and looking back on that- I can’t imagine even being able to go in the museum if we had. We stopped at a great lunch location and the food was delicious. If you are considering this tour I would be aware of your time limits and make sure you make it clear what is a priority to you. I’m sure they would accommodate but not knowing the logistics and timeline for the day and how much time was allocated in each spot, I couldn’t make those decisions. Another concern- our guide left us with the driver Sajed Taha to return us to the port. The driver spoke zero English and we ran into a minor issue on our bathroom break. We couldn’t communicate to purchase drinks. He tried to help and was very nice but we just had a language barrier. No big deal. We also ran into a massive traffic jam- which our driver was very skillful at maneuvering thru, but we had a deadline on returning to the ship and we had no way to communicate with the driver about. It all worked out and we enjoyed our day. It was a private tour and I would book again but with an understanding of where my time would be spent.

Giza Tour - We did a day tip from Port Said to Giza. This was a private tour with a guide and driver. The Great Pyramid and the Great Sphinx of Giza were truly amazing as was the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. We were provided a nice car and the chauffeur did an excellent job driving to all destinations. We liked our guide, however, he English was poor. Although his knowledge appeared to be good on the history of ancient Egyptian civilization, it was extremely difficult to comprehend what he was saying. Honestly we did not experience the benefits of having a guide because of his poor English skills.
