This is a fun experience but riding a camel is not the same as riding a horse. Riding a camel jostles you a great deal more than with a horse. You have to hang on tightly with both hands to the wooden saddle horn. At times you could feel like you are slipping off. We had a 4:30 pm pick up time which would have allowed us to start our ride as the sun was setting, however, they didn’t pick us up until 5:10 which meant we were riding in the dark with only minimal lighting from the surrounding space. Definitely would have been better with more light.

I had such an amazing time! Ahmed Mataro was excellent, made me feel comfortable and relaxed the whole time. Highly recommend.
The operator was nice and so was the young guide (15 y.o) that helped us mounting / dismounting the camels and took us up the dunes to see the beautiful Panasonic views of the pyramids from afar. We did not go around the pyramids as described. The whole trip lasted less than an hour under the hot sun at 110 degrees heat.
Camel ride was less than one hour, we paid for two hours for $88 not worth your money. Also it was far from the pyramids.
Simply THE Best time! Tonsi is such a professional guide. Had a great experience. Can’t wait for the rest to come. So excited for the next activities. Make sure to ask for Tonsi or contact him +20 106 547 8497
The entire experience was wonderful! My tour guide Osama is the best there is! His knowledge of ancient Egypt and his kindness truly makes this a lifetime memory beyond any other travel tour I have taken. Osama goes beyond just a tour. I was continually amazed with all of his stories, his factual history lessons, and all the fun he brings to any tour I had the pleasure of being on. Osama is the number one tour guide in Cairo hands down. Truly amazing. I am completely blessed having Osama as my guide on many tours. It just doesn't get any better than this! It is impossible not to fall in love with Egypt after learning so many things about this beautiful country and the kind people who live here! I can hardly wait to return for more adventures!
Me and my wife had an amazing time with the one and only Tonsi. He was very professional and also very knowledgeable to answer any questions we had. The entire experience was smooth and we felt very safe. Highly recommended Tonsi as your guide.!!!
It always was my mom's dream trip to go to Egypt to see the Pyramids. Unfortunately, she had an injury right before we made the trip, so we were worried we weren't going to be able to experience the Pyramids as planned. With the help of our guide Sayed Mahmoud and our driver Hosam, we were able to experience everything and more! They came to our hotel with a very spacious air-conditioned van, allowing my mom to lay down during the drive. They assisted us with so much care with everything. Sayed was an amazing guide who has a lot of knowledge about the history of Egypt and the pyramids, so we've learned so much from him. We went inside the great pyramids, which really was an unforgettable experience. We also went on a quad-biking tour through the desert with a stunning view over the pyramids (all while Sayed was keeping my mom company in a beautiful traditional Egyptian lounge area). We couldn't have wished for more. Since we were so happy the first day, we booked an additional tour to the Pyramids of Dashur, Memphis and Sakara for another day, which was again, a perfect day, seeing the oldest Pyramids of Egypt, learning so much from Sayed. He also knows the perfect spots to take the most awesome pictures. So we're very happy and would recommend everyone to book Sayed Mahmoud and driver Hosam with Emo Tours!
Pyramids, Sphinx and the desert became more memorable because of Ahmed Tonsi, our English speaking guide in Cairo through Emo Tours. He knew the best spots to take photos from.
We booked a trip to the pyramids and Sphinx with Emo tours Egypt. Sayed Mahmoud, our guide, was very punctual and waiting for us in the lobby. We had a great day out to the magnificent pyramids with Sayed and our driver Hosam. Sayed was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and patient with us (we have a toddler). We thoroughly enjoyed our day and would not hesitate recommending Sayed and Emo Tours Egypt to anyone!
My guide Ayman Gabry is knowledgeable and very nice to interact with, driver Mostafa is very professional and polite, everything is as advertised, nice clean car to ensure comfort. A great choice to avoid chaotic Cairo and hassling sellers.
The visit to Giza Memphis and Sakkara was exceptionally good Our guide Syed Mahmoud is an excellent guide who knew so much about the history and wanted to deliver that to us in a short span of time Emo tours picked us up on time and the guide Syed made sure that we were on time without compromising any part of the visit Will definitely recommend Emo tours
We booked a private day tour to the pyramids, saqqara and Memphis with Emo tours. Our guide Adel Hakem was great! He was very knowledgeable about ancient Egypt and was also a great photographer! We would highly recommend this tour. Thank you Adel!
This tour was great! First, Emo tours does a good job communicating after booking and after we confirmed our arrival to Cairo. Then we got a direct message from our Guide Tonsi. Tonsi was on time picking us up from our hotel, he introduced himself and the driver, he had water and snacks for us in the car and he started to explain few things on the road, starting with the Egyptian driving style, lol. You’ll know what I’m saying when you go ;) Tonsi was very nice, pleasant and knowledgeable. We had a great time during the tour and recommended Emo tours and Tonsi as a guide.
Our tour guide was great & very informative. Very friendly and cracked jokes with us. Gave us heads up on scams too.
We made 2-day tour in Cairo wirh marwan. Marwan was the perfect guide. If you can ask for him to be your guide ! We saw the pyramids, the museum, sakara, memphs,....
Thank you for this wonderful tour!! The guide Samara was like an Egyptian treasure herself as she was warm, helpful, friendly and had such deep knowledge of Egyptian history and culture. I recommend her with the highest regard. The tour was just splendid and I was offered free traditional Egyptian food which was delicious by the guide. I appreciated everything about the tour and would recommend it highly and without reserve!
Had a good time with Samra, she was patient,calm and did not rush us at all. She was a lovely tour guide who loves her job and her customers. Picked up in a timely manner, took us to the locations and suggested funny poses for our pictures with the pyramids and the Sphinx. Overall had a good time and enjoyed the pyramids!
I had Ahmed Tonsi with me one whole afternoon during my trip to Cairo. I could not be any happier, Ahmed brought me around the pyramids and his detailed explanations and her eagerness to share his knowledge made the whole trip a lot more informative and interesting. And Ahmed is very well conversed in English. Strongly recommend this tour to anyone who are as curious as I am, and are too worry to consider coming to Egypt. Make sure you go for Emo tour, and choose Ahmed as your guide, you won’t be disappointed.
We recently did a tour of Giza and our guide was Adel Hakem. The area is rich in history and throughout the tour Adel did a fantastic job in explaining all the details to us. This made it a memorable day and the service was top class and I would recommend him to future travellers
The trip was great. Our tour guide, Ahmed knew a lot on the history of Egypt and gave us very interesting facts and pieces of information about the Gizah pyramids and the tombs and scripts in Sakkhara. Ahmed did a great job as a tour guide.
Really wonderful experiance had with Emo tours... Ola and Ali are very good Tour escorts and both of them are very friendly and provided quality service... Will definitly recomond Ola and Ali from Emo tours to everyone. Thanks a lot for wonderful service
We take transfer services from the airport to our Cairo hotel, visit the Pyramids of Giza, camel ride, visit the Cairo museum and a 5-day Nile cruise, starting from luxe to Aswuan. We had an amazing time and the best of everything went perfect, our Shawky guide in Cairo spectacular. It complied with established and very professional schedules in all the information delivered on our excursion. In relation to the cruise I must say that it was wonderful, very good cruise, good food and stay according to the Deluxe cabin on the cruise MS Tulipe and our Magnificent Guide, he had a lot of knowledge and accompanied us throughout the cruise to our scheduled visits to the temples without doubt I recommend 100% excellent Enterprise tours, very reliable , on time and quality tours.
The day started with some fog that didn’t make the pyramids look good, but our guide MIDO was able to adapt the order of visits to make the most of the day. Despite the chaotic traffic in Cairo, we felt very safe in the vehicle that was taking us and very well taken care of by our guides, who in addition to the tour gave us tips and recommendations to take advantage of Egypt as a whole.
