Our family had a wonderful tour with Khalefa. He checked in with us the day prior and the van shuttle was on time. Khalefa is very knowledgeable and we could have spent more time with him had our kids not been tired from the Egypt sun. A lovely day and good value to see the great pyramids, museum, and the camel ride (a must). Thanks Khalefa!

A highly recommended tour. Everything was perfect from start to finish. We were able to make specific requests and the tour was tailored to our needs. The explanations were very interesting and there was plenty of time for photos and breaks along the way. Thank you
Great job, Kyrllos! Everything was well planned and organized. A nice car and a careful driver. Kyrllos gave us lots of information about Cairo and Egypt. Highly recommended!
Great experience and my group had a nice time
This is a wonderful tour to the Giza pyramids and Sphinx. Our guide, and Egyptologist, Hany Mubarak, did a great job, he showed us each pyramid and the Sphinx. Told us the history of each. Hany helped us with camel rides and horse carriage rides. My wife and I are in our 80’s, with some health issues. Hany was very attentive and helped us through some rough patches. Later Hany helped us with some shopping, and finished the day with a great buffet lunch. Kudos also to our punctual and safe driver,Habibi. We strongly recommend this tour and guide/driver. It is a great way to enjoy Cairo’s iconic attractions.
We had a amazing time with our guide Kyrllos. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about his job. He taught us so much about Egypt. We highly recommend Kyrllos to anyone visiting.
We had an unforgettable experience exploring Cairo thanks to our exceptional tour guide! From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized, and our guide was simply outstanding. Extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and passionate about Egyptian history, our guide brought the incredible wonders of ancient Egypt to life with fascinating stories and explanations. What made the experience truly special was the personal attention, kindness, patience, and genuine enthusiasm throughout the entire tour. We always felt comfortable, well taken care of, and never rushed. Our visit to Cairo exceeded all our expectations, and a huge part of that was thanks to our wonderful guide. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We wholeheartedly recommend this guide to anyone visiting Cairo. Truly exceptional service, unforgettable memories, and a well-deserved 10 out of 10! Thank you so much for making our time in Cairo so special!
Our tour guide, Kyrllos, was outstanding! His knowledge of Egyptian history is impressive, and his passion for it is contagious. Over two days, we explored the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum, rode camels, and raced across the desert on ATVs, and every moment was memorable thanks to him. He was always on time, warm and easygoing, and gave us excellent recommendations throughout our stay. If you want a guide who brings Egypt's history to life, ask for Kyrllos. We'd book him again in a heartbeat!
Our experience was really fantastic! Kyrllos was our guide for the day and he truly was amazing. He was extremely knowledgeable, had the best kind of attitude for a guide (very helpful, but not pushing sales), patient, helpful and was a phenomenal story teller for the kids. We really felt like our time in Egypt and our visit to the pyramids was made excellent by him. Thank you!

Absolutely stunning experience, our guide was amazing and incredibly professional, the kids loved him and we look forward to have Ayoub take us on our next tour for sure. Kindness, respect and very good at reading the group. Love love loved it!!!!!
Ayoub was an amazing guide. Friendly, knowledgeable and always willing to help. We as a family of four toured the Giza pyramids, Sphinx, Camel ride, ATV quad bikes and had a really nice lunch buffet. He was the perfect tour guide, highly recommended!
Ayoub truly made this experience 15/10!!! He was flexible, knowledgeable, and was very fun to be around the entire week! He made every experience unique for me and my friends and the cost was definitely worth the ease of having Ayoub around, not sure how we would’ve done without him, especially as first time travelers! Will definitely be booking him again for a longer Egypt trip next time around :)
Ayoub showed us the best time in Cairo! He was very knowledgeable about all the history the city and Egypt in general had to offer which made the trip very interesting. However his passion for his work and amazing personality are really what made the trip special! Could not recommend him more, he really was the best part of our trip!
Ayoub was the best tour guide ever! My fiancé and I are planning back to go to Egypt for our honeymoon and we’ll definitely be requesting Ayoub again. He was very knowledgeable and very sweet and friendly! Best tour guide I’ve ever had.
From start to finish hands down the best experience I’ve ever been on. From the start we were welcomed by Kyrllos and Mohammed the driver outside our hotel. Kyrllos was our tour guide and what a guy he is, super friendly and knowledgeable. He told us all about the pyramids and Egyptian artifacts. Helped us with purchasing from legit stores rather than scammers. We had great food at the restaurant and a really fun Quad bike experience to end the day. I would recommend Kyrllos to anyone, he’s relaxed, calm and you feel very safe with him, he knowledgeable and passion for Egypt really showed today. Overall this package is fantastic, great value for money and the experience overall is one I’d never forget.
Ayoub is an amazing tour guide who is super passionate about Cairo and Egypt! He knows Cairo inside and out. He made our 3-day adventure with him very memorable and a great learning experience. He has in-depth knowledge about the history of Cairo and Egyptian Civilization. Not only is he great with history he is great with finding the best food spots in town. We had the tastiest food when we were with him. Highly recommend anyone to book with him for their tour of Cairo or anywhere else in Egypt. I will surely be back to him soon during my next trip to Egypt! Hopefully that happens soon.
The experience was great from start to finish. We were picked from our hotel and taken to pyramids. The guide was very good, very knowledgeable and highly informative. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience,it was not just seeing pyramids but was like we delving into egyptian history which made it even more enjoyable! I would highly recommend kyrllos.
Ayoub is hands down the best tour guide you will come across. He is super friendly and very knowledgeable. Ayoub it’s very passionate about what he does and you will not be disappointed. He takes his time accommodates your time and needs. I highly recommend Ayoub.
We had 2 private tours - first the G.E.M. , then another to Saqqara, Memphis, and the New Museum of Egyptian Civilization. We were so fortunate to have had KYRLLOS ESKANDAR ( a certfied Egyptologist and author) for both excursions. Kyrllos was extremely professional, scholarly, and so passionate about Egyptian culture and history. He was kind and went out of his way to accomodate all our needs and answer all our many questions. The G.E.M. collection is huge, and he made sure that we experienced the history and highlights chronologically without feeling overwhelmed. Egyptology The driver was on time and an expert at navigating Cairo traffic. I cannot write enough , and we highly recommend Kyrllos as a guide for these tours ! He was outstanding. Egypt is also about the people, and because of him we want to return. Thank you Kyrllos.
Guide Kryllos Eskandar and the driver gave my family and I an amazing experience at the pyramids. Super smooth, no hiccups, and no hassle. Everything included in the description of the tour was as it was, zero surprises! Kryllos was an incredibly knowledgeable Egyptologist guide and was very passionate about what he does. He was very helpful in answering all of my questions and has social media pages/ books published on Ancient Egypt. If you are having trouble choosing between multiple tours, let this be your sign to choose this one :) It will be an incredible experience I assure you!
Ayoub was incredible. He made everything a breeze!! Very thankful our paths crossed. I had an increasingly blessed time in Egypt because of this gentleman! Highly recommend using him alone for all of your Cairo and surroundings needs!!
We started our second day Tour with Ayoub showing us around Old Cario this was a high light experiencing Churches,Mosques ,museums and the home where the Holy family lived for 3 months we would never of seen all of this if it wasn't for Ayoub A Great Tour Guide.
We had an incredible tour with Egypt Tours Destination, perfectly organized by Adam, with Kyrllos Eskandar as our guide and Mostafa as our driver. The itinerary covered the Giza Pyramids, museums, the Sahara desert camel experience, and a wonderful lunch and more, every moment was well planned and seamless from start to finish. Kyrllos is a true Egyptologist whose knowledge and storytelling brought ancient Egypt to life in such a fun and engaging way for the whole family. His personality is warm, enthusiastic, and incredibly engaging, and he has a real gift for making history feel exciting, clear, and memorable!! We learned so much in a way that felt effortless and deeply interesting. This was an amazing, unforgettable experience. Truly once in a lifetime!! Do not hesitate to book this tour and ask for Kyrllos.
We really enjoyed our tour!! Ayoub is very accomodating, on time, taught us many lessons. Pyramid tour, camel ride, buffet, bazaar shopping tour!! I will a 100% recommend him for future tours in Egypt!
Our guide Mina was very helpful and knowledgeable. Was fantastic visiting the pyramids and was very streamline process. The driver also (Mohammed) was very good. Highly recommended
A really good half day tour through the pyramids, sphinx and Giza Plateau. The guide was very very helpful in explaining the history of the place. The lunch at the end was wonderful. Highly recommend this package
Ayoub was an absolutely outstanding tour guide—knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about what he does. His explanations brought every site to life, but his insights on the pyramids were especially memorable. He has a remarkable ability to make history feel vivid and meaningful, answering questions with depth and clarity while keeping the experience enjoyable throughout. Beyond his expertise, Ayoub’s warmth and professionalism made the entire tour seamless and comfortable. It’s clear he truly cares about giving his guests an exceptional experience. I would highly recommend Ayoub to anyone looking for an informative, memorable, and well-guided tour.
This experience was worth every penny! It surpassed my expectations. Ayoub our guide was incredible, he got us to the right vendors to make our trip complete. He loves what he does and you can tell by his enthusiasm. We visited a scarf vendor that gave us the best deal! Lunch was great and the view was phenomenal.
To avoid penning ‘War & Peace’ I’ll just tell you that this was the most special and spectacular three days we have ever spent with a tour guide. Kyrllos was a wealth of knowledge and kindness 🫶 From Giza, Saqqara, the in’s and outs of the pyramids, the explanations given of numerous hieroglyphs, Islamic and Coptic Cairo and all it’s amazing wonders and so many more to mention. Mike and I felt like we were in a magical kid’s movie following our inspired guide. We laughed, we cried and we ate well and way too much. What this man does not know about his City you could write on the back of a dime. He’s passion and love for Cairo and the pyramids, especially Saqqara and all it entails was truly awe inspiring. Needless to say he is now a friend and our Egyptian brother for life. We will return, and we do, no other guide will suffice. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Kyrllos 🙌🏻
It was our first time joining a tour through TripAdvisor, and it was a great experience. This tour suited us perfectly because we love taking photos and had plenty of time to do so. The tour itself was simple, and we also got to experience riding a camel. It was well-paced with no wasted time, and we had a very satisfying experience. Everything was smooth and efficient. Our guide, Manar, was very kind, helpful, and also great at taking photos for us. We really enjoyed the tour and truly appreciated the experience.
This was an exceptional tour, Yasmeen, the tour guide, was well informed, interesting and she made the entire trip so enjoyable. I did not want it to end. She was superb, The sights were breathtaking and the comprehensive yet relaxed tour was one I will never forget. The lunch was very good too. I could not fault this trip in any way. It was perfect.
Overall great experience, great English knew much about the topic
I had a fabulous day/experience with my tour guide yasmeen, some people say you can see it by using Ubers I would disagree and say you absolutely need a tour guide as the city is vast and local knowledge is a must so sou are able to see as much as possible in your day trip. I would highly recommend this tour company and guide
We had a fantastic private guided tour around the Giza Pyramids today. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and very accommodating, making the whole experience relaxed and enjoyable. The camel ride and lunch were great additions and really rounded out the day. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a well-organised and memorable way to explore the pyramids!
One of the best tours I’ve ever done. Kryllos was an incredible guide. He was very knowledgeable, helpful, and kind throughout the whole trip. We got to do so many activities and the ATVs at the end were a great adrenaline pump. It was more than worth it - highly recommend the all inclusive trip.
Yasmeen was spectacular!! She did a wonderful job pacing the day and getting me to see all the top sites on this tour! She is super knowledgeable about the area, its history, and just a fun person to spend the day with. All around an amazing day. Her driver was also awesome giving some information and history along the drive to and from the hotel. Outstanding service and tour, highly recommend!!
We've just come back from a one-week trip to Egypt, an absolute delight. Several days in Cairo, a day trip to Alexandria and a quick flight to Luxor (Karnak Temple, Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut palace and Luxor Temple in one day, very dense). The tour was organized by Egypt Tours Destinations agency: Adam created a perfect itinerary for us and was always available and responsive prior to and during our trip. We are very happy that Kyrllos was our guide throughout the trip. He is incredibly knowledgeable and truly passionate about Egypt’s history. The historic monuments (Giza Pyramids and Sphinx, Saqqara Bent Pyramid, Memphis Temple, Alexandria Catacombs) are magnificent examples of ancient culture by themselves. However, Kyrllos's explanations made our experience much more memorable because of his storytelling and deep understanding of the culture and history. Thanks to Kyrllos, we had an amazing time. We highly recommend him and Egypt Tours Destinations to anyone planning a trip to Egypt. And special thanks and appreciation go to Mohamed, our driver, who masterfully operated the car on the hectic streets of Cairo and Alexandria (an experience in itself!)
I had a once in a lifetime amazing experience hiking to the summit of Mount Sinai with my guide, Ayoub! I did not know what to expect initially with this particular experience and was somewhat uncertain about my ability as a person 70 years old to handle the hike. But my guide, Ayoub, had prepared me well for what to expect along the way. He was very patient, helpful and encouraging as we made our way to the summit. There are many opportunities to stop and rest and enjoy some refreshment on the way to the summit along the trail. The opportunity to experience sunrise on Mount Sinai was a meaningful and deeply inspirational experience to say the least for me. The visit to Saint Catherine’s monastery at the conclusion of the Mount Sinai. Ike was also a highlight. I highly recommend taking the opportunity to be a part of this experience that has a deep spiritual and emotional history!!!
The tour guid Yaseen and the driver Mohammed was fantastic. They went above and beyond with the tour comfort and everything. They are friendly and didn’t make us feel like strangers. We were in safe hands.
Good timing communication and programme. No nonesense. Yasmine was very patient and kind to suggest what’s needed and waited for us to finish the sightseeing and photos
An absolutely wonderful experience. Yasmeen has a wealth of knowledge and is just a pleasant person to be with. We arrived early and visited The Pyramids for about five hours. It was so stress free. A camel ride, two tombs, and great pics. The buffet lunch that followed was delicious and satisfying. Our driver, Muhammad, made pick up/drop off easy right from our hotel. So much fun w great memories.
This is our second time with Kyrllos Eskandar as our guide and it did not disappoint. His knowledge on the history Egypt encompasses everything from the old kingdoms, to the new. He was able to answer all of our questions and knew everything off the top of his head. The pyramids were fascinating, the level of details is incredible, and climbing down the shafts of the step pyramid was a unique experience. Again, I recommend Kyrllos as your guide as he points out things one would normally miss. 10/10
Absolutely amazing! Our guide was patient and knowledgeable and took great care of us. He stayed late with us answering additional questions and had the best insider info about the pyramids, grand museum, and other excursions through the day.
Tour was amazing! Kyrllos Eskandar was an insightful historian who gave us incredible insight into history. His knowledge was inspiring. He was personable and paid diligent attention to us as his guests the entire day. We were thoroughly impressed. Highly Recommend!
We could not have picked a better trip to visit the Egyptian Grand museum. Ahmed was out tour guide, he was very welcoming and informative. The trip was seamless from start to finish and I would highly recommend anyone planning to visit the Museum to ask for Ahmed as your guide.
Fatima was very knowledgeable and a great guide! We were there early and beat the crowds and she made the tour a lot of fun. I highly recommend!
Khalefeh was a great guide. Informative, and will let you go at your own pace as well. You can see everything you’ll want to see on this tour.
We spent 2 wonderfully informative and fun days on a private tour with our guide Mena. He did everything he could to ensure that we covered all that we had wanted to see. This was not my first trip to Giza and it was great that through Menas knowledge I learnt things that I didn't already know while having some laughs as well. He even made sure that my dietary requirements were met during the buffet lunches. I highly recommend a private tour if you want a personalised experience.
Hello all lover's welcome to the join of Akwa Okuko Tiwaraki I'm happy with you all my brother's and sisters. It's your first time for happiness.
