Terrific - Could not have asked for better. Sumayyah is a terrific and lovely guide. Mohammad our driver made our experience all the better. They are both professional, friendly, considerate to our needs, and on top of things all the time. They made our experience even better than we hoped for. It truly was a pleasure. Thank you so much Sumayyah and Mohammad, and thank you Emo Tours Egypt. You are our go-to when in Egypt.

A full day to the pyramids of giza with memfis and saqqara and dahshur with omair - From morning to evening, young Omair and Mr Ahmed maintained a very spirited and positive attitude despite the heat and speaking a language that is not their own. At all times they were very nice, cheerful and most importantly respectful and professional. They simply Love Your Work.... Especially young Omair never left us and always looked after us. I wish that all people in the tourism sector as well as in all labour sectors would love their work as much as they do. We are simply very happy to visit Egypt thanks to Omair and Ahmed.

Great experience with the Private Day Tour Giza, Memphis and Sakkaraaqqara, - Excellent choice of trip. The local guide spoke very good English, he offered valuable information in a calm and professional manner. He made the whole day trip smooth as he kept away all the locals who constantly asked for a tip or tried to sell things. Easy access to all sites, no wait in line for tickets. Prompt pick up from the hotel and also very good driver who accompanied us all day long - different person. The stop next to the Sphinx was kind of in a rush, but that was no problem for us since we had an extra day in Cairo and visited the place once more. Good choice of restaurant for lunch. We highly recommend the tour, the travel agency and local guide.

In awe… You need to see it to believe it. - I had one of the best days of my life on this tour. We started off early with a hotel pick up in an air conditioned SUV at 9am by the our tour guide Mohammed and the ever so polite driver also called Mohammed. Mohammed our tour guide who has a degree in history was incredibly friendly from the start and we even started our day off with a stop at the coffee shop near the Pyramids. He was incredibly knowledgeable and funny explaining the history about the old, middle and new kingdoms in Egypt. I was in awe of what we were seeing and Mohammed took the most unbelievable pictures documenting our entire trip. We did a horse carriage ride instead of a camel ride and the locals took stunning pictures of us. We visited the papyrus museum and priced down some artwork. We also visited some oil (was in my element here) and souvenir shops in between going to Memphis (Sphinx) and Sakkara (First step pyramid) which were both stunning little villages. All I can say is get your haggling hat on. I couldn’t pick which part of the tour was my favourite as all the monuments had different cultural significances. I was told I’d be surprised at how big the stones on the Great Pyramid were and I was indeed. Egypt is a land of great people, scholars and mathematicians because it is mind-blowing seeing these magnificent statues and structures in person. I would definitely do this tour again with the same tour guide as he made it all the more enjoyable for my partner and I for all 8 and a half hours (should normally be 7-8 hrs). I thoroughly enjoyed the buffet at the restaurant which had a pyramid view. Well seasoned and tasty food (meat and veggie options) to fuel us throughout the day. Drinks were not included however, we opted for bottles of water as it was a hot day. The tour also provides unlimited bottle's of water/soft drinks throughout the day and if you need anything, they are willing to stop at the shops or toilets all along the way. All entry fairs were also purchased on our behalf. The only additional cost was the horse carriage ride and they will inform you of the pricing on the trip. I can say I was truly emotional going through my camera roll at the end of the day. Such a beautiful experience and it really is to me, the number 1 wonder of the world. Thank you for such an extraordinary experience!

Amazing tour & guide - We did a private tour and Osama Seyam was our guide. He was polite, very funny, great personality and made sure my mom was doing good throughout the tour. He took us to an amazing local restaurant for lunch which was delicious and quite tasty. We would highly recommend Osama. FYI… he has a knack for some cool and memorable pictures! 😊

A special experience! - The tour was simply perfect, Sam is a serious and reliable person, he speaks perfect Italian and is very knowledgeable about everything. He arrived at the hotel to pick us up with his driver, there are no words to describe his kindness and availability. We started the tour from Saqquara, he advised us to also visit a tomb located in the site of Saqquara where there were monumental sarcophagi of some bulls, I attach the photos to show you the wonder, and then visit the site of Memphis. We had lunch in a restaurant that was, to say the least, wonderful but above all very good, then we visited the archaeological site of Giza, at the end of the tour, and then took us back to the hotel in complete safety. I recommend this tour but above all ask for Sam because without him it wouldn't have been the same wonderful experience! Thank you so much for giving me such a special first day!
