You’ll also glimpse the mysterious Bent Pyramid, a unique architectural marvel that shows the evolution of pyramid design. It's the perfect way to round out your day of exploration through Egypt’s ancient wonders. After this incredible experience, your guide will comfortably return you to your hotel, filled with unforgettable memories from your journey through time.

You'll start with a visit to the stunning Hanging Church, one of the oldest and most beautiful churches in Egypt, dramatically built atop the Roman Tower of the Fortress of Babylon. Next, descend into the sacred crypt beneath the Church of Abu Serga, believed to be the very spot where the Holy Family found refuge during their journey through Egypt—a deeply spiritual and moving experience.

This part of your tour offers a magical glimpse into Egypt’s incredible religious and cultural heritage!
Next, your adventure continues to the majestic Citadel of Salah El-Din, perched high above Cairo, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the entire city—an unforgettable sight! Within the Citadel, you'll explore the magnificent Mohamed Ali Alabaster Mosque, one of Cairo’s most iconic landmarks. Built in the early 19th century by Mohamed Ali, the powerful ruler of Egypt for over 45 years, this grand mosque is a masterpiece of Ottoman-Turkish architecture.

Your day begins with a comfortable ride in a modern air-conditioned vehicle as you head to the stunning coastal city of Alexandria. Upon arrival, you'll dive into history with a visit to the mysterious Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa—an ancient underground wonder carved across three fascinating levels beneath the earth.

This extraordinary site is truly one of Alexandria’s greatest treasures!
Next, you’ll explore the iconic site of Pompey’s Pillar, the tallest ancient monument in Alexandria standing proudly alone—soaring nearly 30 meters high with no support! This towering column is a true marvel of engineering and a powerful symbol of Alexandria’s Roman legacy.

The guide Alaa was great, he provided a very informative tour, was attentive and open to schedule changes per my request. Drivers were pleasant too and had impressive skills on the road. Overall I had a wonderful company
Yemani and Youssef made our first visit to Egypt an incredible experience! From the moment that we met Yemani, we were impressed by his depth of knowledge. We learned a great deal about Egyptian history and culture from him, and he has a gift for telling the story behind each site so that it comes alive rather than feeling like a list of facts. What really set this tour apart was how bespoke and personal it was. Yemani took time to understand our interests, and tailored the itinerary and pace to what we wanted to see. Yemani and Youssef also have a great sense of humor, and the laughs made the 3 full days of touring feel effortless and fun. Youssef was outstanding as a driver: punctual, careful, and friendly. He handled the chaotic traffic of Cairo and Alexandria with skill. The car was comfortable and clean, and we never had to worry about logistics or safety. Both went above and beyond my expectations. If you’re visiting Cairo, book them without hesitation. Shukran!
Our tour guide, Ahmed Elsayed, was fantastic - he was knowledgeable, accommodating, personable and well spoken. We enjoyed our time and learned an incredible amount. We expected to be awed on this trip by the amazing sites and antiquities, but this tour exceeded our expectations and we are very glad we booked it and got Ahmed as our guide!
This tour takes you to incredible sites but what truly made it was the tour guide, Asmaa. Her knowledge about each site will blow you away. She made this tour so special for us and without her it would not have been the same. She even went above and beyond to help me sort out an issue with another tour! Honestly, you must book this tour and make sure to request Asmaa to have one of the best experiences of your life.
Having the best personal tour guide in the world, Asmaa, made this tour incredible. The locations were well chosen and tailored perfectly to give you an overview of Egyptian history from the Okd Kingdom until now, but it was Asmaa who made it special as her knowledge was unparalleled. Do yourself a favour and book this tour but make sure to ask for Asmaa so be your guide.
I spent my 28th birthday in Egyptian and decided to treat my self… money well spent! The tour was absolutely amazing, and Mona and Amwar were a delight to be with. They were both informative and kind and ensured I was enjoying myself. I am so glad a came to Egypt because I have the intention of returning next year!
Our tour guide Ahmed Elsayed was very friendly and knowledgeable about the Ancient culture and history the prayer was a engaging and interesting and we were very satisfied We had a good driver —Saleh . He always get us to the destination safely
I just finished a private, all inclusive, 3-day tour of Cairo, Giza and Alexandria with Amal. She was very knowledgeable and made us feel so at ease and welcome. The itinerary was great. Felt like we got to see a little bit of everything and was never rushed. The transportation was very comfortable, clean and safe. Overall, I would highly recommend this agency and our lovely guide Amal!
We had the most incredible and enlightening experience exploring Egypt, and it would not have been the same without our outstanding guide, Asmaa, and our driver, Hegazy. Asmaa is an exceptional Egyptologist; patient, deeply knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what she does. She has a rare ability to bring history to life, making even the most complex aspects of ancient Egypt clear, engaging, and memorable. Her sense of humour added a wonderful dimension to the experience, making every day both informative and thoroughly enjoyable. She took great care to ensure we were comfortable at all times and tailored the pace perfectly so we could truly take everything in. Without hesitation, I would describe her as a go-to guide for anyone seeking a thoughtful, insightful, and well-delivered tour; particularly reassuring for female travellers. Hegazy complemented the experience perfectly. He was consistently friendly, professional, and highly attentive to our needs. His calm and considerate manner made us feel completely at ease throughout, and his reliability meant we could simply relax and enjoy the journey. As two female travellers, feeling safe and comfortable is essential, and both Asmaa and Hegazy exceeded expectations in every respect. Together, they made our trip seamless, enjoyable, and truly memorable. A well-deserved 5 stars. Highly recommended.
I would recommend this guided tour over and over again!do not hesitate to book it. We had the honor and privilege of being guided of our beloved Asma who is a deeply knowledgeable Egyptologist with passion for her work and always helpful for whatever we needed. Our great driver made sure that we would reach our destination with safety and on time. He was really helpful.
We had a very good experience with this travel company in Egypt. Thank you for making our trip memorable.
Had a great day with the tour guide Amal. The tour company misk tours is very professional and was extremely helpful too!
Amal was a great tour guide and she did a really good job explaining the history of Ancient Egypt!
The best tour we've done by far, and we have done a lot of then over the last 4 years! We have dreamed of coming to Egypt for so many years. Our Egyptologist guide was Ahmed Elsayed, he took us on day to Alexandria, all of the pyramids area and told in the right order starting in Saqqara, plus avoiding the tourist traps throughout, the GEM (we were the first people in there that day!!), the Citadel and white Mosque, Coptic churches, and then real old Cairo with walking around the markets and driving through some streets was amazing experience, loved every single moment. Ahmed was perfect, his knowledge of everything was amazing, really took us through the entire history of Egypt, and told through eyes of a true local with a genuine passion for what he does, so well educated too. Plus he knew everybody!! We went always felt safe in his hands, *open your hearts and close your eyes". Got to mention our driver Ahmed Kamouna too - seriously I considered hiding a car and driving here myself, but after seeing him navigate around I was kidding myself, he navigated around situations and through crazy traffic, people, and dogs with such patience, don't know how he did it while remaining so calm. Got us everywhere on time, including a few stops I requested that were no issues.
We just finished our Cairo trip with our guide Ahmed Elsayed and driver Samy, and we had the best experience ever. They were professional, caring, and made every moment enjoyable. In such a short time, they became like family to us. This trip will stay with us for a lifetime. I highly recommend them to anyone visiting Egypt . Best wishes to my friends Ahmed and Samy!

We had a wonderful time with Mona and Ahmed! They took us to see all the main historical sites of Cairo, Giza and Alexandria. We learned a lot of history. Thank you so much!
I spent three amazing days in Egypt and it was an unforgettable experience. Our tour guide Mariam was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and always happy to answer questions. The driver Ammar was professional, safe, and punctual, which made the whole trip very comfortable. What an experience!
My husband and I just finished the 3-day Cairo tour. This included well arranged multiple day activities to Cairo and nearby with ancient history, which needs a lot of history knowledge, experience, effort and energy from tour guider and tour driver. Our tour guider Ahmed Elsayed and tour driver Mo Farag did excellent job and cooperated very well to make our visit smoothly. Ahmed told us the detail histories at the key and central points in each visit, so that we could grab the most important information for each site. As this is our first visit to Egypt, the knowledge was overwhelming and we really appreciate Ahmed’s energetic expression of the details to lead us. Ahmed helped us taking amazing photos at each location, like a professional photographer. We also want to thank for MO’s exceptional driving to go through some part of the impossible roads.
Mona and Manal were excellent guides! They were very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. It was nice to have the tour guides plan the events and was a great way to see the highlights of Cairo and Alexandria. Also our driver Amr was great; he was very timely and got us through all of the crazy Cairo traffic with no issues.
Ahmed, our tour guide, and Mohammed our driver were lovely and friendly. It was a pleasure to take our private tour with them. Our days were busy but not over strenuous. Bottled water is provided in the car. The first day we did the Pyramids and Sphinx which were amazing. We were supposed to have lunch but didn't get food until around 5pm which by that time we were flagging. This could have been due to having to fine somewhere that offered gluten free. We declined the camel ride because I have ridden one before. There was a bit of moving the dinner cruise around from the last day after Alexandria to day 2 instead which I could totally understand as Alexandria is a long day but by doing this we were told that we wouldn't be able to see the bazaar or if we wanted to it would be an extra 20 dollars which we couldn't understand as on day 2 we spent an hour waiting to board the dinner cruise boat. Day two was so interesting to see downtown Cairo, the museum and Mosque. Ahmed was full of interesting stories and facts. The dinner cruise was very good including entertaining dancers. Day 3 we couldn't leave until later than we would have liked due to fog closing the roads. It is worth the drive to Alexandria and the car was comfortable with a pit stop on the way. Where we thought the traffic in Cairo was chaotic we soon realised that Alexandria was even worse. Mohammed was such a good driver to get us around to the different sites. It was another really interesting day. To sum it up this tour is really worth the money. We saw all of the main attractions. Ahmed is a fountain of knowledge about ancient Egypt and Mohammed's expert driving got us everywhere safely. Five stars
We had a wonderful experience with the Cairo tour. Misk Tours is one of the best tour operators in Egypt. When things did not go according to plan on the first day, they immediately stepped in to resolve the issue and provide us with free replacement options to compensate for the lost time. Also, Mr. Mohamed at Misk Tours followed up every day to ensure that we had a good experience. The guides Muhammed and Sally were knowledgeable and courteous. Would heartily recommend them for any future tour.
I cannot say enough good things about this 3-day tour. It was so perfect. Our driver picked us up on time every day and the communication was outstanding. We fit so much into the three days and learned a lot about Egyptian culture and history. Our guides (Asma in Cairo / Giza and Mohammed in Alexandria) were very knowledgeable and showed us the best parts of each site visited. We have multiple guides of other tours tell us how lucky we were to have her. And it is an incredible value. Pretty sure you wouldn’t be able to do everything we did for less than the cost of the tour. Would give it six stars if I could. Highly recommend it!!
Mona our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable. She really made us feel welcomed and comfortable. It was a great experience with her for our 2/3 day tour. Thank you Mona
Best 3 day private tour of Cairo, Giza and Alexandria. Our driver Mohammed farag was very good and hospitable. He was also very patient and a great company to hang out with. I would definitely recommend him as the driver to host and accompany you with all trust in Egypt. Thank you Mohammed farag, loved meeting you and hope to hire you again when we come back to revisit.
We didn't had much of time this year and wanted something which could cover main parts of Egypt in 3 days. This tour was perfect. It was well planned and made memorable with our tour guide Raniaa and driver Abdul Rehman. Raniaa was very professional, knowledgeable and gave us the correct information of Egyptian history and monuments. Abdul Rehman was sweet and caring. Both of them and the tour company Misk were punctual and communicated about everything well in advance. I would recommend this tour company to my fellow travellers without any hesitation.
It was an amazing trip. Our tour guide ( Asma) was very helpful knowledgeable and patient to show us around and explain everything
We have spend the best 3 days ever thanks to Ahmed and Asma they were friendly and helpful Thanks to make our trip memorable
Ahmed ragab is very good and very funny and very nice person he helped me a lot and he speaks very well and he gave us some great ideas about Egypt in Alexandria and very clean car highly recommend 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
Best decision to book this tour. A great 3 days of Cairo. Asma was wonderful and patient with us. Her knowledge and kindness was exceptional. Ahmed is king of these crazy Cairo streets. They made this a great memorable once in a lifetime visit for mom.
Very good tour, driver Ahmed and guide mona where both excellent. A great experience and very friendly way to see the wonders of the Pyramids.
Amazing duo of tour guide Mona and driver Ahmed they have made our first trip to Cairo Egypt just perfect. The communication with them was very easy, they arrived on time , happy and chatty with great English. We learnt loads of history about the pyramids, the sphinx, Egyptian history . We went to an oil and perfume store and also a shop which made and sold papyrus paintings. Then we went for traditional Egyptian lunch which was super yummy . Honestly these two were amazing a real dream team .
Mr. Abdo Ragab was awesome! Very safe driving and thoughtful as well. Always had cold waters waiting for us after each stop which was nice and unexpected. Highly recommend!
In Cairo, Egypt I met very nice and faithful cab driver, Mohamed Farag. He always took care of our condition. In taxi he gives us two bottles of waters, traditional Egyption sandwich, sugar cane drinks, if we want. This is my first visit Egypt. But, my sister did here, last year, with my niece. Mahamed Farag took us special spot to take photos for sunset, pyramids, historic site. Early in the morning, late at night. He came and waited us. His English is good. He is also good at history and places. I had wonderful time in Egypt for thirteen days. Thank you.
I travelled in Cairo and travelled in Alexandrea with my sister and the taxi driverMohamed Farag heled us so well. In last year when I met him as our driver our family had so nice and comfy travel with his safe and kind help and riding. So this time we contacted him again. Thank you so much, Mohamed Farag. With him our family felt so much nice and pleasant trip.
Our driver/tour guide is amazing! Ahmed Ragab has showed great hospitality while staying in Egypt. We will be using his service again tomorrow.
Absolutely amazing tour! We were able to know a lot about the Pharaonic dynasties in just 2 days along with the greco-roman remains in Alexandria. Our guide was Doma and he made an exceptional experience for us being first timers in Egypt. From responding to all of our questions and sharing his knowledge, to taking us for lunch to taste different Egyptian dishes every day so we could have the full experience. We loved the time spent with him. It was hard to say goodbye! In addition, our driver Mohammed was also very careful despite the traffic madness in Cairo. He was very attentive providing water and snacks so we could feel very confortable. Thank you so much for this incredible experience!
It was the best 3 days. The greatest and most powerful history lesson ever. Asmaa is amazing. She is very knowledgeable and so smart. She talked through all of ancient Egyptian history. The itinerary was packed and exciting and it covered everything I wanted to see and do. From Giza to Cairo and Alexandria to the dinner cruise it was incredible. I cannot forget the driver who was always so patient, courteous and kind. I highly recommend this tour. It is a must do in Egypt.
I don’t think we would have been able to do half the things we did on this tour if we did it on our own. Having a guide and a driver was crucial to us making the most of our time in Cairo. We chose a later pick up time (9am)…I would suggest choosing one of the earlier times because we did run out of time to do some activities. We went to Giza on day one and visited the pyramids. The camel ride was a fun experience. Day 2 we went to sites in Cairo city. We did a dinner boat that evening and it was good but could have been a little longer. On day 3 we went to Alexandria. We left for Alexandria at 7am, but traffic messed up our timing a bit so we didn’t get to go to the citadel but we still had a great day. Asmaa, our guide, was excellent. Really loved having her with us. She was knowledgeable and fun and I don’t know how we would have made out without her. It was more than worth it to us
We did a three day tour with the best guide from Egypt Asmaa Mostafa. And we had the best driver, Hazem. We where truly lucky to have them. She knew so much, and explained everything in very good and clear english. Every question was explainend. And the interaction between us was amazing. Hazem Made us feel safe in the crazy traffic. And was always in control. If you are in Egypt and you have these two wonderfull persons around you. Probaly you will extend your vacation. Thank you Asmaa and Hazem.
Had an amazing day! Comfortable pickup from the hotel, smooth ride, and great service throughout. Our driver Ahmed was the best — friendly, professional, and made the whole experience unforgettable!
3 day tour of Cairo and Alexandria was an absolute fantastic experience conducted by Tour guide Ahmed and driver Yemani. There planning and execution of the tour was second to none. They both went above and beyond to ensure I was well looked after, there enthusiastim and knowledge of Egypt was second to none. Thank you both for an an unforgettable experience.
It is our first time in Cairo, Egypt. Choosing the package tour was the best decision ever. However, our tour guide Mariam made it 100% better. She was knowledgeable, accommodating with our needs but above all super kind. I would highly recommend you ask for her and Ahmed our driver on your next trip.
This tour lives up to its name. It is indeed the best 3-day tour you can find in Egypt. I travelled with a group of family and friends (16 in total). What a wonderful time we are having! We had completed two days so far which consisted of Giza and Cairo. These places should be on everyone’s bucket list. Our tour guide Habeba is the best! She is knowledgeable with a great sense of humor. She is charismatic and enthusiastic which made the experience for our group enjoyable. She is good in organizing the itinerary for the day to make it more efficient. She has excellent communication skills as well. In addition, we appreciate her flexibility and patience in accommodating our shopping requests. She is truly awesome!
Habeba is the best tour guide! She cares about our group, she always make sure we are together and enjoying our stay in Gyza , Egypt.
Superb experience. Our tour guide Hebeba is very knowledgeable about the pyramids, flexible, and patient to all of us. She also made the tour fun and enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour.
We enjoyed our Cairo tour with Habeba today at the pyramids and at Memphis. We ate traditional Egyptian lunch which was included with the full day tour. Habeba is very pleasant and knowledgeable and gave us great tips from start to finish! We can’t wait for the second and third day of this tour! We habibi ❤️ you Habeba! J 🇺🇸
Habiba is very knowledgeable about Egyptian history, friendly and hard worker. I am very satisfied and will take the tour again.
Great tour so far! Habiba is friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and professional. We are having a great time! Looking forward to the next 2 days!
It has been great! Got to see everything I wanted to see! Learned a lot, Asma knows so much about everything! It has been a great trip and experience for us. Our driver was great as well! Day 1 : we did all the pyramids/ camel ride / dinner cruise Day 2 : Explored Cairo , we did old Cairo museum , churches and Mohammad Ali Mosque which was stunning Day 3: Alexandria
Abdo has been wonderful during my personal guided trip, staying on top of everything. He made my tour very enjoyable and efficient even with the traffics in Cairo. I strongly recommend him for any guided tour with professionalism and commitment. Thanks, Abdo!!!
