Good your - Mohammed was great. Driver was great. Very nice funny and informative. Was told “getting an extra experience” and was brought to an overpriced perfume shop. But other than that, the pyramid and sphinx tours were amazing.

5 stars to the tour guide, Aladdin! - 1. Aladdin is an incredibly professional local tour guide with a clear and fluent English accent. You’ll never feel confused or distracted by any language barriers—he speaks like a native English speaker, even though he was born in Egypt. 2. He is extremely flexible with the tour itinerary. For example, I wasn’t in the mood for camel riding, and he immediately adjusted the schedule to accommodate me. 3. His knowledge of the pharaohs is remarkable. He shares detailed, engaging stories that bring their history to life.

Tour guide by Hazem. - Me and my family of 3 booked private tour for The Great Pyramid Private Tour To Giza Pyramids, Sphinx With Entry Inside and camel ride , and lunch on the 1 st day and second day we booked the Cairo Day Tour to Memphis Sakkara & Dahshur Pyramids with Emo Tours Egypt. Hazem tour guide picked us up on time at our hotel Hyatt regency hotel with private car with good driver. Then he greet us very politely and well explained about the plan for the day. First day to Giza , we felt really informative and he is very knowledgeable about the history. He has well spoken English , with great communication. He was very calm and very friendly. We felt really reassurance. the camel ride with very good experience where the camel 🐪 owner help took pictures of us at the paranormal of pyramid. Then we went to learn more about papyrus, perfume , and carpet. The lunch with meat bbq on the grill was so delicious. The Resteruant was very traditional with dance and traditional bread 🥯 making near Saqgara sight. One last thing that really made me happy , Hazem is one of the best photographer I ever seen. He made all out photos come alive and look better than reality. He knows all angel and lighting. This tour and Hazem tour guide definitely are very good tour in our experience exceed our expectations. If you ever want to have a private tour. Check out Emo tour and have Hazem as your tour guide. My son definitely likes Hazem so much. We want to than you for this perfect trip. The unforgettable trip.

For a very poignant, spiritual, and enlightened tour, book EMO tours, with Aladin - From the moment we were picked up all on time, to getting to the pyramids, it was a joy! Aladin was the best. You must book this guy. And the driver he had, Abdul is the best driver in Cairo by far. I can't say anymore other than we will remember this trip with deep memories and affection.

Felt very rushed throughout the tour. With very poor quality restaurant named Caviar tour leader took us. - The highlight of the tour with Mr. Aladdin was his great abilities to take pictures. There are some points I like to mention about him and the tour. He really rushed us through pyramid viewing. As soon as he took pictures of us he wanted to move, even if my parents wanted to take pictures themselves you could feel that he is being annoyed. He didn’t let us to go and buy anything from the local bazaar by the site. They scared us that they are all bad people and wants to trick us. At the end he took us to a restaurant that he asked for 15$ per person. The restaurant named Caviar. It was a buffet but pop and drinks were not included. Which for 3 Pepsi we paid 3 times more than regular places. The food was really really poor quality. Yet he said that’s the best for trying Egyptian food. At the end when I told him the food was not even average, he got annoyed with me. Even he was asking for more tips when my father gave him the norm amount. He recorded a video of us that we said everything was great. But that video was before all bitterness.

Oh, my God. - It says the tour lasts 3 to 4 hours, but in fact the pyramid tour lasts about 2 hours. No guide was allowed inside the pyramid of Khufu. I'm sorry because I wanted you to explain inside. The pyramids and sphinxes of the Khafra and Menkawrah kings were only seen from a distance. I go to the papyrus store without permission after the end, but there is no problem if you don't buy it.   It's good for those who want to take a quick look at the Giza pyramids and ride a camel, but I'm not convinced by the guide's price.

Waste of money. Use another operator or go alone - Very disappointing as what we received is not what we paid for. The guide and driver were pleasant and provided some facts during the drive down. But there was no entry inside the Great Pyramid, despite showing the guide the Viator itinerary of this tour, he said no, you can have your photo taken by the entrance but can't go inside. I had to ask to go down through the temple to see the Sphinx like the other tourists. Why told "there's nothing to see in the temple". I said I want to get closer to the Sphinx, isn't that the way? Then he said Let's go. All very strange. Wanted to tell us the facts but didn't want us to see the Great Pyramid, the Sphinx and not allowed much time at the other spots. Whole trip including pick up and drop off was 2 hours!

Very bad experience! EMO tours is enabling child labor! - The tour guide was sleepy the whole time and seemed in a rush for me to see the sites. I felt I was being rushed. The worst part is the tour guide had me go to the panorama area by a 10-year old boy, who clearly struggled to manage to huge camels that are 10x his size! That was so irresponsible, and they were enabling child labor! It would have been different if the child was supervised by his parent, but he was practically left alone to tend to the camels, which was dangerous. The camels were not following his instructions and started making angry sounds in protest. In the end, he started punching and hitting them with a stick, which was an awful sight to see! This was a very bad experience with EMO tours! Do not patronize them!
