I really enjoyed my visit in Cairo from exploring the Khan El Khalili Bazaar, visiting museums to seeing the great Pyramids of Giza, it was all a mesmerizing experience. No photo can truly capture the beauty of Egypt. I wish i had more time to go and visit the other places in Egypt. I definitely recommend Egypt tours to organize your tour. The people were incredibly hospitable — friendly, curious, and always ready to help. Food-wise, Cairo was a delight. From koshari (a comforting mix of rice, pasta, and lentils) to fresh falafel and grilled meats, every meal was flavorful and affordable. Don’t miss trying fresh mango juice. If you’re planning to visit, I recommend staying near the pyramids, it was surreal seeing the pyramids from the window. Overall, Cairo is completely unforgettable. It’s a destination that stays with you long after you leave. Thank you Egypt Tours for organizing this for us.
Great tour with camel ride, view of the three great pyramids and the sphinx plus entry to the great pyramid. The host Islem was great and very informative and helpful.
The guide was competent and really nice. He took good care of our group all the way. The company did a good job providing customizing the trip.
You can come to Cairo and not visit the famous world wonder. It was definitely a breathtaking view, and our amazing guide gave us so much information of things that we didn't even know about the pyramids. We also had a chance to do horse riding and also take some marvelous photos with the pyramids in the background. Thank you again to the guide for the lovely photos. Also, transferred there was perfectly arranged from the pickup in the beautiful VIP cars. 5* for the tour operator Marawan.
We had a wonderful time exploring the Pyramids and the surrounding areas. Everything from the tour to the car we drove around in was amazing. Really it was a great day! It’s a long day, but you hit so many of the major highlights of Giza and Cairo! Asmaa was our guide and mena was our driver. They make a great team! They let us go our own pace. Asmaa is very informative and really shines as an Egyptologist talking about the highlights at the Egyptian museum. Mina is a nice, friendly and safe driver. A great day! Out favorite was the camel ride and the lunch with the pyramid view. 100 % recommend with this agency and this team
