We had an excellent day with George and Moh. George was such a brilliant driver and his explanation and English was very good Between him and MoH they combined well as a team and accommodate all our needs He suggested a buffet lunch, however we do not eat a lot and he took us to a very local street food and we ate koshary a traditional Egyptian dish. It was so cheap it cost us 15 AUD for three plates and four drinks. It was an excellent experience Moh knowledge was excellent at the pyramids and the museum, his father was also a tour guide, so his information has been passed down through a generation. The only downside is that I booked through the Hilton hotel as I could not discover a local guide. So it was very pricey at the Hilton but a magnificent day. However, I hit the jackpot with Moh and George If you can book with Moh and George directly, you won’t be disappointed Enjoy, Egypt my friends

I have traveled the world, but I can honestly say that our trip to Egypt has been one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we were picked up to the moment we were dropped off, everything was perfect. We felt safe the entire time, had so much fun, and created memories that we will never forget. Truly an unforgettable experience!
I had an amazing experience with my tour guide! Madonna she was very friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and made the whole tour enjoyable and interesting. She was always helpful, patient, and happy to answer all my questions. I learned so much and had a wonderful time. Highly recommend Madona
nice information with fantastic guide.
Everything was great from the driver to the specialized guide! Safe, punctual, and well organized. The van was new and all the experience unforgettable.
We had a wonderful time touring Giza and Saqqarra with Ishaam. He was extremely knowledgeable, flexible and gave great food recommendations stopping with us for lunch. He and his driver were very accommodating providing water and changing our route when we asked. He gave thorough explanations for everything we saw and answered every question we had. Definitely recommend adding the camel ride on!
Mo’men was a great guide, was super knowledgeable and a great cell phone photographer! Very cool guy who made the trip to the pyramids hassle free and really fun. Would absolutely recommend this group for your tour if you’re looking for one!
I’ve been to the Giza Pyramids before, but this time was a completely different experience, all thanks to Mou. It was my first time booking a guide here, and I can’t believe I waited so long. Mou brought the entire site to life with stories, insights, and details I would’ve never discovered on my own. He was incredibly warm, knowledgeable, and made everything feel effortless, from the logistics to finding the best photo spots. I saw the pyramids in a whole new light, and even though I’d been before, it felt like a brand-new experience. If you’re on the fence about getting a guide, trust me, go for it. And if you can, book with Mou. You’ll leave with more than just photos, you’ll leave with memories and real appreciation for what you’re seeing.
Amazing tour really recommended, the tour guide was really nice and guided us through the full experience of the pyramids.
The tour was amazing. DOA was a great guide and very insightful on all of the history of Egypt. The tour was easy and I would 100% do it again through this service. It made my last day in Egypt memorable, and the travel around town was very easy.
Mo’amen was an amazing tour guide. He really personalized our experience and made sure we got everything we wanted out of the tour. So fun and insightful!
Our tour guide Momen Nour and the driver Ahmed were the best guides you can imagine. Very polite and friendly. They have a huge knowledge about ancient Egypt. If you get the chance to book them, grab it......
Trip was amazing. Driver on time and guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. When plans changed the company helped modify the day no issues. A must use.
Momin our tour guide was excellent, explained everything in English. Was an excellent tour guide made sure he showed us everything and explained everything we wanted to know. Also he took amazing pictures of us!
Very good experience visiting the Pyramids and the Sphinx for the first time. Mo is a great tour guide, he gives very interesting insights on the monuments!
Amazing service. A private tour with our own itinerary. 5 people. Nothing was any trouble. Our guide Ahmed was a pleasure& very knowledgeable. Our driver was fearless. Our 5th trip to Egypt. This company & staff are the best!!
We had an amazing time. Our tour guide was Kamal, and he is phenomenal! He is very knowledgeable about everything, he has an answer for every question, he shares a lot of information without being overwhelming and most importantly he is super fun. He is so great ,that he requested him for 3 days straight. We went to more than 6+ plus mosques which he had great knowledge, we went to the Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Memphis, Sakkara Pyramids and near by temples and a lot more. It was a great experience. Highly recommended.
We were 2 days visiting Giza complex and Sakkara plus Memphis with Momen Nour as guide and Ahmed as driver. Exquisite experience, they both make a grea team and offer you a great tour to know more about the country. Thank you!
I had the pleasure of being guided by Hesham on an incredible tour of the wonders of Cairo. Hesham's warmth, knowledge, availability, and courtesy, coupled with his remarkable archaeological and historical expertise, made the entire experience truly amazing and extraordinary. If you're planning a visit to Cairo, I highly recommend entrusting your exploration to him.
We did a tour of the pyramids, the sphynx, Memphis, the payrus museum and jewelry shop with Hesham. It was great and very passionate about his job and his country. He was extremely knowledgeable and was constantly adding other information about places we went through. Nothing was too much,We had a fantastic day experience. Thank you. I highly recommend Hesham 100%
I had a tour with Mr Yasser Hamdy. What an amazing experience!!! I strongly recommend going with him, because he explained hours the Egyptian history, we walked a lot. And I like his personality: very educated and nice person
It was amazing group tour for 10 days. Hesham organized everything perfectly, could not be better. We went from Cairo all the way to Aswan. Also his dother Farha was so much help and fun to be with. We will repate it again next time. Thank you for amazing trip😊
At the eleventh hour at short notice this tour operator was able to arrange a full day tour with Egyptologist, Zain - they were very considerate in determining how best to delivering the tour content catering to our interests and backgrounds and it made for a more engaging experience than other tours I've been on. the staff took the stress out of what would have been a complicated itinerary if we tried this on our own. No pressure sales just a take it or leave it approach with friendly service and cheeky humour.
Went on a tour to see the pyramids and sphinx. We were met at our hotel by our guide Zein who was fantastic, and then went in a private bus with a driver. Zein was great, he spoke fluent English and was really knowledgeable. He asked us what kind of tour experience we were after so he could tailor the information. He took us to the main pyramids and explained the history really well and took pictures for us too. Then Zein asked us if we wanted a camel ride which took us to all the main pyramids, and he negotiated the rides with the vendors there. We then were taken to some shops on the way back and were taken to lunch at an extra cost. Overall it was a great day and a really lovely experience
Our tour guide Zein was very welcoming and knowledgeable. My family and I visited the Pyramids and Sphinx and Zein ensured we saw the best sights and really got the best photos possible. I look forward to visiting again and will definitely book another tour when I do.
This is the best tour company around, safe honest, real and see it all.. They are the best in Egypt you will love everything about the place people food
Well organized, the time management is great, the tour guide is very professional and the driver is very polite and professional. I visited the pyramids for the first time with my wife and we were delighted with the level of service and amazed with great information we knew about the pharos. Highly recommend to any tourist looking for a tour guide and transportation facilities.
Busy day, Hesham was very knowledgeable and patient. We would recommend him to our friends visiting Egypt. Made good use of the day and stopped only because we're tired.
My wife and I were privileged to visit the Pyramids today with Mr. Kamal and Mr. Rida of 5-Starts tourism company. We were so happy with the information shared by Mr. Kamal about the history of Egypt as well as the Pyramids. Both Kamal and Rida were welcoming and flexible to make this trip a memorable one. Thanks for Ramses Hilton hotel for booking us through 5-Starts tourist guides. I do recommend this team for anyone who intents to visit the Pyramids in the future. Thank you all and good luck for Egypt.
They were great. I highly recommend. My guide was Kamal and he was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The driver was Mahmoud and he was really good too.
my favourite part was learning all about egypts past it’s very interesting and definitely worth it .
We must visit the pyramids once in our life. Especially with the best tour guide Hesham khedr. We went to Saquarrat and Memphis ! We went also to schoolds where they fabriq beautiful market! Siinteresing Thank you so much Esham! For this perfect day
Coming to Egypt was a good idea. We were able to visit many sites, more than I expected. The learning experience was incredible. It really was above my point expectations. Time was a serious constraints, definitely I wish I had a couple more days to visit the modern Cairo and experience the culture more. But that fall in my court. Hesham, our guide has s really proud and passionate about his work, he did a wonderful job.
He is a professional have very good experience is patient all a guide needs.He has. Plus he make jokes
This were best tour i ever had. Was my third time in Saqqara but hesham showed me completely new things. He is a archeologist and his knowledge is beyond words. When he talk you can feel the passion about ancient Egypt, was just amazing. He is really open for new adventures and if you have any wish just ask him and he will make it possible. I spent at the end with him on 3 tours and he gave me experience i will never forget. The ride super comfy and pleasant. Thank you again and see you next time again.🌟
Our guide Hesham was fantastic. An experienced archeologist with knowledge and insights that you won’t learn when visiting the site on your own. He speaks excellent English, is very friendly, accommodating, has good humour. He is well connected and knows where you can get the best falafel. Highly recommend him.
Hesham is a knowledgeable Archeologist that was the perfect guide to enjoy the historic pyramids, shielded from all the negotiating with really pleasant setup of your own driver. Highly recommendable!
Hesham is an excellent guide totally dependable and knows just about everything about Egyptology the country and culture. We first went with him on a trip to Cairo, and Giza in 2010 and my wife has kept in touch ever since, he is a "fount of all knowledge" when it comes to Egypt and is always happy to answer any questions. We have no hesitation in recommending Exquisite Egypt and in particular Hesham for an unforgettable Egypt experience.
The attention was splendid, hesham was a knowledgeable guide perfectly knows his work. We recommend taking this tour with Exquisite Egypt was a beautiful experience for my wife and all our friends the attention and the trip was all “Exquisite”. Thank you Hesham we hope to be back soon!!!
