BEST GUIDE

We had an absolutely incredible experience today , with our guide Sayed Mahmood ,visiting the Giza Pyramids, Saqqara, and Memphis, and it was all thanks to our amazing guide. From the very beginning, they were professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. They brought the history of ancient Egypt to life with fascinating stories and detailed explanations that made every site even more impressive. What truly stood out was their passion and enthusiasm—they made sure everyone felt engaged and comfortable throughout the entire tour. They were also very organized, ensuring we made the most of our time without ever feeling rushed. Their tips and insights added so much value to the experience, from the best photo spots to understanding the deeper meaning behind what we were seeing. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. This was truly a memorable day, and we highly recommend them to anyone visiting Egypt!

Day Tour for the Khan khalili market , museum and the pyramids

We got the best tour guide and archaeology person Mena. She made us love the rich history of Egypt with her charisma. Then for the driver Mohammed Ali he was always on time and drove us around as if we were royalty. So thank you Emo tours , you are simply the best .

Incredible day today!

We had such a great day with Sayed Mahmoud today! Hosssam was our driver and they were both incredibly friendly and made us feel safe and comfortable. No request was too much for them which was great! Sayed was very respectful in listening to what we did and didn’t want to see as well as what we wanted to see up close. He took us to the perfect spot for unique and very quiet places to get our photos of the pyramids. Being with Sayed made us feel like we were with an uncle that we’d just met who was showing us around town!

Wonderful tour. Highly recommended

Exceptional tour. Very enjoyable. The tour we did took as took the pyramids, great sphinx and then to step pyramid and then to Memphis and concluded with an amazing Egyptian lunch. Our tour guide Sayed Mahmoud was super informative and very helpful with taking our photos and answer all our questions. Our driver ahmed was also good and got us some extra water. We did the extra 1hour camel ride and could not recommended more especially for the photos you can take

Giza Pyramids and Sphinx, Egyptian Museum

Sayed Mamahmoud and Mr. Hamdy took my friends and I on an unforgettable experience, highlighted by the Pyramids and Sphinx of Giza and the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. We also visited the local bazaar and souk in Cairo. Sayed was very accommodating and informative in explaining all of the sights, and Mr. Hamdy was an excellent driver. I highly recommend utilizing Emo Tours as a guide for an amazing experience in Giza and Cairo.
