High Level of Experience To Mr. Brown Sugar - At first, i was kinda scared to travel to EGYPT as i heard many bad things in social media. Of course, i need to consider my safety before travelling. Anyway, all the doubts was vanished as I had an amazing experience with the help of Mr. Brown Sugar. All places that i visited was spectacular especially the Pyramids. It made our dream came true as we see it up close. The program (itenerary) was planned accordingly and i am 100 % satisfied. I highly recommend to everyone MR. BROWN SUGAR as for sure He will give the best experience that you deserve. And also He has an amazing team that can help you on your entire journey. They are absolutely good interms of photography plus they are so kind and generous. I myself consider them all as Family. They gave me a good treatment when i was there and really i enjoyed a lot because of Mr. Brown Sugar and to his Team ..Thank you for everything you’ve done when i was there and i hope to visit your country again..

Best Trip ever!!!!! - First off I have to say Mr. Brown Sugar is the best and he is the man all over Cairo. A real celebrity. Me and my wife booked Brown Sugar for 4 days which also included personalized pick up and drop off to the airport. He communicated with us the entire time before we arrived in Cairo. He took us all around Cairo the 4 days we were there, took us to eat at local Egyptian places, we saw the pyramids, outside market, you name it we saw it and did it. He catered to everything we wanted to do. He was very entertaining but also knows his Egyptian history and explained everything at the pyramids and sites to us. He also did not let anyone take advantage of us when it came to prices. He was a pure gentleman!!!!! We are planning to go back in 3 years but with our kids and will book him again. Also did I mention he is a super celebrity in Cairo everyone knows Mr. Brown Sugar and in a good way. We also had a personal driver the entire time his name was Nasir and he was a sweetheart and took us everywhere. Mr. Brown Sugar and Nasir made our trip to Cairo unforgettable!!!!!!! We consider them family!!!!

Brother From Another Mother Land - The tour orchestrated by Walid AKA Mr. Brown Sugar was truly exceptional. His team seamlessly facilitated our entry into Egypt, navigating customs procedures and ensuring the secure handling of our luggage. The guides displayed punctuality and courtesy at every stage, coupled with extensive knowledge. I highly endorse Mr. Walid and his team for any requirements during your stay in Cairo.

Best tour ever! - This was one of the best experiences I could have never planned myself! From pick up from my hotel - the sweetest driver - to the checkins, followup and detail oriented learning of ancient history - I loved this tour! As a solo traveler, I felt safe and totally comfortable. Osama was a great tour guide. He took lots of wonderful photos and knew how to capture every historic site with the traveler in mind. 10/10 highly recommend.

The Go-To man for the pyramids! - had taken a day trip of Giza, Saqqara and Memphis with Mr. Brown Sugar Egypt Tours. Mr. Walid Ali (aka Mr. Brown Sugar) is from Giza and a perfect local to show you around the pyramids. He is knowledgeable and goes about his work with passion. He is very friendly and knows a lot of people. His loud and oft-repeated 'habeebiiii' is something that one doesn't forget anytime soon! Really a nice man to be with. In the afternoon, he took me to a local eatery where we had Egypt's national dish, koshari. After I ate it (two bowls in fact!), he said that I have now become an Egyptian. True that because the day after, people started to ask me for directions on the street :-) The next day, his brother Beso showed me around the Egyptian Museum and Salah al Din citadel. Both brothers are really nice!!

Solo Female Traveler to Egypt - Any words I can use would be an understatement to the experience and care Mr. Brown Sugar and his team provided for me! I was well taken care of the ENTIRE trip as a solo woman traveler! I had my inhibitions that I would need to be super cautious traveling to Egypt! Instead once I arrived and started my tour with Mr. Brown Sugar I knew I was going to be okay and in great hands!!! He was very transparent and I didn’t feel like I was being “got”. Perfect English was spoken so there weren’t any barriers of translation being lost! We used What’s App to communicate which was perfect! Their punctuality was amazing!! I learned so much from the team! A well oiled wheel! I’ll be using their services again when I return next year with my son!! Inshallah 🙏🏼

10 Year anniversary trip - My wife & I visited Egypt for 10 days for our 10 year anniversary & Mr Brown sugar & his team were fantastic to work with. He was very accommodating & flexible. He did not pressure us in anyway & helped us navigate all the adventures we had asked about prior to our arrival. Be sure to book with him if you are heading to any part of Egypt.

It was like hanging with good friends. - Mr Brown Sugar and his brother Beso were so great. We were picked up promptly from our hotel in a nice air conditioned car and taken to the pyramids. He showed us beautiful views, took photos of us, and made sure we were having fun and comfortable the whole time. Not only did they show us the ancient history, but they also exposed us to local culture, music and food. He took us to try the National dish koshary(which was amazing), an amazing perfume and essential oil shop, and authentic papyrus factory. They both have amazing energy and work so hard to make sure you’re well taken care of. Also, Mr. Brown Sugar’s colleague George treated us so well when we went to Luxor. He picked us up from the airport and made sure our hotel check in went seamlessly. He took us to the souk, to try local Egyptian tea and coffee, and helped us locate whatever we needed. He’s so kind and personable, it seems like you’re hanging out with an old friend, but he is so professional in every way.It was so fun experiencing the Luxor nightlife with him. We’d definitely book with Brown Sugar tours again. It felt like coming home.
