Great layover tour in Cairo - We went on a private layover tour. It was about eight hours long and included pick-up and drop-off from the airport. Our tour guide, Mohamed, was incredible, knowledgeable, and had top-notch photography skills. Our driver was also absolutely fantastic. The tour covered all the main attractions we wanted to see. I highly recommend booking with Jakada Tours and asking for Mohamed if you want an English tour.

Amazing! - Jakada Tours Egypt, This was my first time visiting Egypt and was really nervous not knowing what to expect but my Tour guides, Mohamed (AKA Handsome Mo) was my first guide for the Pyramids. Mohamed always asked if I was comfortable and needed anything the 2 days we spent together for this tour. The second Mohamed ( Aka MoToo) was just as attentive to my needs. Now for the details. Giza/Cairo Pyramids I've dubbed these guys their nicknames so that anyone reading thiss will know who to ask for when booking a tour guide with Jakada. They were both super knowledgeable guides, very personable and great sense of humors. They both made me feel very safe (not that I was in any danger) the entire time. I was met outside of the airport by Handsome Mo first then taken to the hotel near the pyramids. This was an increadible experience since it was right in the center of it all. The beautiful chaos of all the traffic, people walking talking, merchants everwhere it was almost as you would see in a movie. Absolutely amazing! I could see the pyramids from my room balcony and from the rooftop restaurant at the hotel. The hotel staff was great as well, the rooms super clean. I have a huge phobia of bugs and was expecting to come accross something but the only thing I saw was a fly. Very, very clean and bug free Hotel. The food was good. Nothing real special, burgers, salads etc. but Mo had some local food delivered to me so that i could get a taste of Egyption cuisine and it was fantastic. Luxor Temples and Tombs Handsome Mo and the driver picked me up from the hotel in Cairo/Giza to drive me back to Cairo airport for my next trip which was Luxor. The flight was quick, about 45 minutes and not too chaotic getting through the airport. I was greeted by 2 gentlemnt from Jakada tours, one was the driver and the other was the meet and greet person. Yes, his name was Mohamed as well. We dropped Mohamed off on way to hotel then picke up MoToo. Very friendly well spoken young man just like Handsom mo. He asked if I was comfortable and if I needed anything. He explained the Itinerary as well and talked a little about the area we were at. The hotel in Luxor was very Luxurious. We were served Hibiscus juice in a wine glass as we waited to get checked in. MoToo also made arrangements for a late checkout because my flight back to Cairo was not until 8pm and he did not want me to sit around for 3 hours waiting for my tour to begin. The hotel staff were really friendly and always asked if I was enjoying my stay. The buffet breakfast was also very good, huge variety, omelet station, all sorts of breads, potatos, cereal, juice, coffee and you can sit outside to enjoy the Nile River view. I don't know of any other tour companies to compare to but I will say I do not regret hring Jakada Tours for this trip. The price was great, the tour guides are very personable and really attend to any of your needs. They will go out of their way to make sure you have a pleasant and comfortable time in Egypt. I booke the 5 day package with 3 day Nile cruise but the airline cancelled my flight there so everything needed to be changed. Jakada tours staff took care of rearranging things for me instantly and even made sure I was able to at lest have a dinner cruise on the Nile. That really meant a lot to me. As for namine the 2 Mohameds I've mentioned, I hope no one thinks I was being disrespectful, I asked them if it was ok to call them by those nicknames and they were all for it! Very pleasant guides, will miss them all. If I ever plan to return to Egypt, I will be certain to only ask for these 2 young men. They have both made quite the impression on me and I have a special place in my hear for both of them. Believe it or not, I left a ton of stuff out because there was just too much to mention and all of it was a great experience. I recomment Jakada Tours Egypt 100 percent but again, it's the only tour company I had the pleasure of hiring. Thank you for reading and safe travels.

Trip of a lifetime! - This was a dream trip that finally came true for me and my daughter. And our hopes and expectations were exceeded. Not only by the incredible sights, but also by the professionalism and kindness of our guide, Mohammed, and our driver, Said! Mohammed has an Egyptology degree, and he was a foundation of historical facts and answered joyfully any questions we asked! Said maneuvered the crazy bustling streets, and we always felt safe. The pyramids are awe-inspiring, the Sphinx majestic, and NEMC museum was a highlight as well. We highly recommend this tour, and hopefully you will be lucky enough to have Said and Mohammed as your guide.

Great private tour of the Pyramids! - Fabulous tour of the whole Giza pyramids precinct with Haithom Mohammed as my excellent guide. This is my second time to Egypt and I wanted to explore this area in a lot more depth. Haithom was wonderful! As a solo woman traveller, I felt very well looked after.

Amazing tour guides in Egypt - I had the pleasure and privilege of spending the day with Mahammed and Sayed (our driver). We had a great tour seeing the pyramids, sphinx, perfume oil shop and cotton store. Sayed was a safe driver. The traffic around the area is very bad and he did a good job of navigating through traffic and keeping us cool and safe. Mahammed has a degree in Egyptian history, so we were learned a lot of information. After the tours, we had a traditional Egyptian lunch at Oasis pyramid view. The food was delicious. 10/10 would recommend using this company and asking for Mahammed and Sayed
