I had a great time with Mo'men. He was very knowledgeable about the Pyramids and the grand Egyptian museum, and his explanations were clear and engaging. He made the experience enjoyable and easy to understand. Highly recommend him!!
What I will say that I 100% gurantee moe to anyone looking for a great tour guide Loved the tour, he was kind and helpful✨✨✨
A very pleasant tour with Mo'omen, who showed me all the secrets of the pyramids and the Sphinx. I recommand the tour which is a mont do in EGypt.
My wife and I were sent to Egypt for a business trip. We had never been there before. The problem for us was that the trip was very short and we had only a small amount of time to enjoy the wonders of such an ancient and beautiful land. We turned to the concierge of the Cairo Marriott to point us in the right direction. He recommend of tour company) we organized two day trips with them. On the first day we met Mo, our tour guide for our adventures. This young man spoke impeccably clear and artulate English, which was necessary as our Egyptian Arabic was nonexistent. He took us to the old museum and not only showed us these ancient artifacts but was also an educated authority on the history behind all of it. I am an historian myself, but I specialize in modern history circa 1600's to the present. I had no clear understanding of ancient history until we met Mo. He spoke of kings and royalty and gods and burials in a way that was suddenly real, humanitarian, and above all, comprehensible. By the time we left the museum, I felt much more knowledgeable on Egyptian history than I ever may have fathomed studying it in archives and libraries by myself. We saw sarcaphaguses, mumified remains, and elaborate statues from thousands of years ago. The Tutenkamen exhibit brought me back to the 1970s when I was in grade school, and Egypt was generous enough to loan the exhibit to New York City where I was lucky enough to participate in that showing. However, as a child, one does comprehend the magnitude of true historical value of connecting the dots these artifacts convey and the timeline therein. But now, I say WOW! It is not lost on me of the impact of standing before ancient greatness. We spent sufficient time there, but that is because our guide Mo, had his finger on the pulse of his guests and appropriately allowed us to decide how long we wished to remain. I am sure there are those who maybe were not as 'wrapped up' (bad mummy pun) in history as we are, and for those tourists, he would move on. But we wanted to stay and he afforded us that option. We left there and my spouse wanted to purchase some memorabilia and gifts. So Mo took us to the Khan el-Khalili Market. We slowly moved through the narrow streets and all the While Mo pointed out significant elements of the architecture, culture, and history. After purchasing several items of interest, Mo treated us to some refreshingly unique tea, which helped cure my ailments of dry throat from toom much flying and not enough sleep. He opted for a high octane coffee to keep himself motivated. He then returned us safely to the hotel where we reflected on our day, and prepared for another work day. But we vowed we would meet again on Sunday for our next adventure: The Great Pyramids! The next time we met Mo was 2 days later when he arrived promptly to pick us up from the Cairo Marriott. He could have raced us over to see the Great Pyramids immediately, but he did the unexpected. Knowing our love of history, he whet our appetite with the less ostentatious, yet more archeological, intense, earliest pyramid in Saqqara, the step pyramid of Dejoser. This ancient co struct was revolutionary in its engineering and design; it was like nothing that had ever preceded it. At this site we were able to descend into the ancient tombs. Although as a large man it was somewhat claustrophobic for me, I quickly overcame that fear in pursuit of a piece of history, the likes of which I had never witnessed before and likely never would again. From there we moved on toward the smaller sphinx and the behemoth statue of Ramses II. There Mo explained the family dynamics and nuances of that particular bloodline and all of the cultural respects that accompany that historical chapter. Next.... the Great Pyramids. However, every step along the way, Mo would further enlighten us on history as well as patiently answering our sometimes naive or uninformed questions, but never once made us feel foolish for asking. We arrived at the grand exhibit of the Great Pyramids, but we did not storm through the area. Instead, Mo gradually brought us through some of the outer exhibits as we worked our way into the compound. Every step of the way, he had another educational tidbit to share, and he seemed to be a bottomless tomb of information. If we wanted more, he would deliver. As we moved from pyramid to pyramid, he pointed out unique features and lesser known antiquities, and theories surrounding this massive undertaking in construction. At times, the facts furthered the mysteries. At other times, the theories shed light on this incredible engineering feat. We circumnavigated our way through the Great Pyramids, and at one point, Mo assisted my wife's ambition to one day sit upon a camel. He made this happen without us trying to haggle with the owners for whom it is their livelihood. She got her wish, and I did not feel dejected or taken advantage of in any way whatsoever. No tourist wants to be a victim, and we were not. All thanks to Mo! The next stop was The Great Sphinx. This was an incredible closeout to our journey. Mo pointed out a great vantage point as we drive to capture key views of the Pyramids from a generous distance which gave us great scale and scope to feel the immense size of the monuments. When we arrived on site, we sauntered throughout the compound and Mo delivered more in-depth history throughout the walk. Afterward we went to a shop where my wife purchased a cartouche and had her name customized on it. it was a perfect piece to memorialize our trip. Mo did a fantastic job, we were lucky to have been graced with him. He is a true ambassador of Egypt!.
Visiting the Pyramids with a guide was unforgettable! Our guide Mo was knowledgeable, friendly, and shared fascinating stories about the pyramids and Sphinx. The tour was well paced, with plenty of time for photos and exploring. Mo even helped us pick out a traditional egyptian fast food afterwards and drove us there. Highly recommend a guide such as Mo as it makes the experience truly unforgettable!
Mo was the best tour guide I have had. Not only in Egypt but in all my travels. He has an extremely vast knowledge of Egypt and its history to answer all my questions. He took me to all the best spots and angles for photos, as well as took them for me. He even dealt with all the people trying to harass tourists. He didn't rush me and let me explore at my own pace. His English is incredible. Super easy to talk to and just have normal conversations. He even took me to a place I did not pay for. As an American visiting Egypt exploring can be a little nervous or scary, but not with Mo. If you are trying to see the pyramids, sphinx, have someone explain all the artifacts in museums. He is the best to do it.
Five stars are not enough: a one-in-a-thousand experience! My trip to Egypt was one of the most special experiences of my life, and I want to thank Ahmed Nour and his team for making it unforgettable. The service, quality, and attention were extraordinary, but what I take away most is the care and dedication with which they accompanied us. You can tell when someone loves what they do. Ahmed conveys his passion for Egypt and its history, and turns every visit into an experience that is enjoyed and remembered. The attention to language and communication allowed us to understand, ask questions, and connect with what we were experiencing. The private tours were some of the most special moments of the trip. His knowledge of the country, his contacts, and his organizational skills made a big difference. Behind every experience, you could feel the work and attention to detail so that everything would turn out perfectly. For me, being able to enjoy myself with peace of mind, feeling taken care of, and knowing that there were people looking out for us was of enormous value. There was professionalism, but also human warmth, patience, and heart. Egypt gave me history, magic, and deeply personal moments. Thank you, Ahmed, for helping make this trip stay in my heart forever. A thousand out of ten for service, a thousand for attention, and a thousand for dedication! I recommend it with all my heart and would travel with you again.
It was and is the most wonderful, beautiful experience I have had; the service was excellent, I felt super well taken care of, looked after, all the information given on the trip is top-notch, very prepared, with a lot of wisdom. I loved it and of course I would do it again, with the same guide. Thank you very much

It was a fantastic trip where I learned a lot from Egypt, all the beauty and charm of the pyramids, the story told first-hand by the guide with his wisdom and friendliness, marked a trip between friends from two continents, Brazil and Portugal. A gratifying experience not to be missed from every story and with details that no one else knows how to charge. Thank you for this opportunity. 🙏
Excellent experience lived in Egypt with a guide as learned as Ahmed Nour Eldin, grateful to receive some of his knowledge, always lacks time, however, he is in charge of showing you the best and enigmatic of every temple, every pyramid and every place concerned with my comfort, my safety, health and answering my concerns... totally recommended.
