EXCELLENT Based on 197 reviews Posted on Tripadvisor Curious03626799137Verified Amazing guide Tarek and experience Wonderful experience, skilled and friendly driver Mazen took us from hotel and swiftly got us to alexandria where we were met by our guide. Tarek had a wealth of knowledge, was a historian and archaeologist and took us to the Citadel, Mosque, catacombs, library and showed us everything. Really flexible around what we wanted, helping get us straight to sites in whatever way we wanted and amazing specialist knowledge. Everything was managed to make our time special and effortless. Really lucky and highly recommend.Posted on Tripadvisor Fabiola BVerified Excelent travel Sakkara Paseo por el Sakkara , estuvo excelente el trato. Muy amables el conductor y el guía. Muy simpáticos y atentos. La verdad me gustó mucho, fui con Hosny & Mohammed. Gracias por sus atenciones, excelencia y calidadPosted on Tripadvisor Timm_a_bVerified Expert Egypt Exploration My wife and I had an awesome time with Mohammed Sobhy as our guide at the Pyramids and Egyptian museum. He knew everything we needed to know, and never left our side to make sure we were not getting lost in the shuffle. He seemed very well known at each location much brought us so much comfort and ease. Egypt is safe and Mohamed was the best.Posted on Tripadvisor Elca BenaVerified Exceptional GEM visit with Amany Absolutely outstanding experience with Amany at the Grand Egyptian Museum! She is, without exaggeration, one of the most exceptional guides I’ve ever had anywhere in the world. Incredibly knowledgeable, brilliantly organized, fluent in English, attentive, passionate, and genuinely dedicated to making the experience perfect for you. The GEM is absolutely massive, and after trying to visit it alone two days earlier, I can honestly say having a guide like Amany completely transforms the experience. On my first visit, I felt overwhelmed and missed so many important masterpieces. With Amany, every moment was optimized perfectly. I explained to her that I wanted to arrive right at opening time to photograph the museum’s most spectacular treasures before the crowds arrived, and then later take the time to walk through the galleries and really learn the stories behind the pieces. She executed this plan flawlessly. Everything was seamless, efficient, and perfectly timed. What impressed me most was how respectful and intuitive she was throughout the tour. She never rushed, never pushed, and completely adapted the experience to exactly what I wanted. She made the entire visit feel personal, relaxed, and unforgettable. And as an amazing bonus, she also gave me fantastic local food recommendations — a huge plus for a serious foodie like me! I cannot recommend Amany highly enough. If you book with the company, make sure you specifically ask for her. She is truly a world-class guide and an absolute gem herself. 🙏Posted on Tripadvisor Jeffet sVerified Cairo Une visite rendue vraiment unique par notre guide Mohamed Sobhy qui, avec bienveillance et maîtrise totale du sujet, nous a permis d'apprendre tant de chose sur ces monuments et ce fantastique musée. Merci à toi MohamedPosted on Tripadvisor Ruben GVerified Amazing day out in Cairo Mohamed is an amazing guide very interesting and efficient ! Highly recommend !Posted on Tripadvisor Barnoosh BVerified Luxury tour guided by expert I got details of the company from a friend who had used them last year. I contacted the owner Tariq via WhatsApp. We exchanged messages and had a phone conversation to set out an inteniary. Price was agreed, although we had some back and forth on payment schedule. In terms of service provided, it was excellent. We were met at the airport, fast-tracked through passport control, driven in air conditioned van to hotel. Tour guide (Mahmoud Khalifa) looked after us for 3 days in Cairo. Mahmoud is a graduate in the field and highly knowledgeable. He was excellent throughout as was our driver Mustafa. Overall, an unparalleled experience for the whole family in a unique city.Posted on Tripadvisor Daydream784306Verified An experience of a life time Tarek was absolutely fantastic we had him for 2 day tours.
