Hazem was great in everything, we would do business with him again.
Great experience with a very knowledgeable guide. In addition they were able to be very accommodating for other items we wanted to include on the itinerary.
This was a really great experience. Our guide Hazem, was extremely knowledgeable and passionate, and was very happy to answer all our questions. He spoke very good english and was very kind, helping my elderly mother navigate through the sites we visited. I highly recommend this tour!
The guide Martina contacted us the evening before the tour which is very helpful to arrange for meeting time and place. The driver and guide were punctual the morning of the tour. The day was seamless. The car was comfortable and we got to see and do everything we wanted. I highly recommend this tour and Martina as a guide.
Muhammad and Ihab were the BEST! His English was perfect, he had excellent knowledge of Egyptian history, knew where to linger and where to speed up. He is an amazing Egyptologist!
We spent almost one full day to visit the Giza site and we had also a quick visit to Memphis. We suggest to arrive at site opening to enjoy the visit we less visitors and, if you want to enter in the Cheope pyramid, ask to do as first, buying tickets at entrance, and then visit the exteriors ( there is a lunch stop between 12-13). Memphis is a small site, with two/three masterpieces: it's worthwhile if you have spare time. The Guide Hazem is a professional with licence and is willing to follow your needs and interests. He speaks good English and he explains clearly the essential, without telling fancy stories as lots of guides do. In brief, we suggest to book this tour
Khaled was exceptional, knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about Egypt’s history. He brought the Pyramids to life and made the entire experience seamless and unforgettable. Highly recommend this tour!
This trip was amazing as it is a once a lifetime experience for my family and I. We were guided by Hazem who was exceptionally good as a guide. He spoke English well and explained the history of Egypt clearly. He is also patience and kind. Would recommend him and this trip for others who would like to explore Cairo.
Hazem was our tour guide and he was extremely informative along our tour of the Pyramids and other adventures. He was also accommodating to our travel needs, since we landed the same day as the tour. It was a wonderful day
The tour was great! Our guide Tarik was amazing, very knowledgeable, passionate and friendly. He also takes great photos ;). It was very nice and comfortable to have a private driver. Our driver Abdul was great. We highly recommend this tour!
After checking through a few companies I settled with Deluxe Travel Egypt as they were the only company who provided the guide and drivers based on my itinerary. We organised our own hotels and internal flights. Our trip covered Cairo(Giza Plateau), Hurghada, Luxor(Valley of the Kings) and Aswan(Abu Simbel)(10 days). I was able to complete everything that was agreed to. Yassar was very professional and prompt with his email replies from the very start when I was obtaining pricing and providing up to date information as our trip progressed. Our guide (Zizou) was professional and provided enough information for our time on the Giza plateau, Saqqara etc. All the drivers arrived on time and took us exactly where we wanted to go with no unplanned stops as we didnt want to go to markets etc due to our limited time. These guys are great and their pricing is competitive.
Great tour with our guide Mohamed Gomaa - smooth ride, great insights and history. Would recommend for the Giza plateau
We had a very good time with the Italian speaker guide Sharif of Giza, Memphis and sakkara! We booked through deluxe company which demonstrated to be trustable and efficient!
The views were amazing. We took many photos, our guide was amazing, he took us to the best spots, and he took the best photos of us. He was very passionate when telling you the history of Egypt, ensuring we was telling us every detail of it, making the experience special and unforgettable! Highly recommend this tour! Driver: Omar AKA Schumacher Tour Guide: Hosni
It was amazing. So informative and interesting. I was impressed how organized and efficient. The food was also delicious.
Our tour guide Mohamed Gomaa was knowledgeable and personable, created a very welcoming and comfortable environment. We were a group of 3 people and everyone felt the tour was excellent value for money. Would have no problems recommending or even returning for a different tour in the future.
We had an incredible experience on our private tour of the Pyramids of Giza, Sakkara, and Memphis! From start to finish, everything was seamless and enjoyable. Our driver was punctual and ensured a smooth ride in a clean and very comfortable van. It made traveling between the sites relaxing and stress-free. The highlight of the day was undoubtedly our guide, Amel. She was amazing—her sense of humor, deep knowledge, and clear expertise made the tour truly memorable. Amel conducted the tour in English flawlessly, and there wasn’t even a hint of a language barrier throughout the day. What stood out most was Amel’s approach. She didn’t try to oversell us on anything and was incredibly patient at every stop. She allowed us plenty of time to take photos, soak in the sites, and ask questions, making the experience feel personalized and unhurried. The tour company itself was great to deal with, we booked the afternoon before and through a quick phone call and WhatsApp correspondence the trip was booked and tailored to our requests. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and we highly recommend opting for this private tour. While it may cost a little more than some of the other options out there, the value and quality of service make it absolutely worth it!
Had a lovely trip with family to Pyramids of Giza, Memphis and Sakara as a private tour with tour guide Zanaty Mohamed. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip. He had excellent knowledge of egyptian history. He explained everything in great detail. We had a very enjoyable trip. We will highly recommend Zanaty Mohamed as a guide for any trip in Cairo
On Day 1, I visited Saqqara and Memphis in the morning, had lunch at a buffet restaurant and Giza and Sphinx in the afternoon. It was a good opportunity to learn the history of Egypt, and I enjoyed all activities, including getting inside the pyramids and camel back riding.
We had an excellent tour with Zizou! He was very clear and such an expert on the tombs and Egyptian history in general, especially hieroglyphics! We learnt so much and it was a great introduction on our first day. He was responsive to our interests and we entered into many tombs with incredible artwork and architecture. We are also happy we went and saw these sites in addition to the great temples - loved having a deeper perspective and appreciation of the development over time. Communication was easy, driver was kind and very skilled. Highly recommended!
Excellent trip organised by Zizou and Team… it was on time and quite informative trip by Delux Travel…. Thank you… we enjoyed a lot our trip to PYRAMIDS..
Even though this was our first visit to Egypt, the prompt attention and friendly and immediate responses from Deluxe Travel Egypt for all our queries put us at ease. Since we were able to talk to Ms. Mona and discuss in person, we were more reassured. We were picked up from the hotel lobby exactly at the appointed time by our friendly guide ZiZou (Mr. Zanaty Mohamed) and driver Omar. The transportation provided for me and my wife was a comfortable air conditioned van. Our guide ZiZou was extremely friendly, helpful and considerate, and took care of all requirements such as obtaining tickets, passing through security checks, drinking water, purchases, etc. He is very knowledgeable about Egyptian history, geography and culture, which immensely enhanced our experience. Another thing worth mentioning is the scores of very good photographs clicked by ZiZou using his phone, and shared later with us. His selection of the spots, lighting and the angles for the photos were very good, and these have become cherished mementos for us from the short trip. Our only regret is that our trip was too short (we had only one day in Cairo), and we do hope that we will be able to return with our extended family in the near future for a longer trip. We also hope that we can have support from the same wonderful team, of ZiZou, Omar and Deluxe Travels Egypt.
One of the best tours I have ever been on! Our guide was very welcoming and kind. Our guide was very passionate and knowledgeable about our locations and cared deeply about the Egyptian history. He also made it such a fun day with many activities and great lunch! Also very great at taking our pictures throughout the day. Great full day tour at a great price! Highly recommend!!
The tour was excellent . Mohamed Gomaa was a fantastic host considered our needs, very safety conscious, extremely knowledgeable, funny, great bloke would highly recommend
We had a great tour to Memphis, Saqqara, and the Giza Necropolis. I couldn’t recommend this company more. Our guide, Mahmoud, was highly knowledgeable about ancient Egypt, and I would join him for the same tour again. He was also great with our kids, and he handled all of the logistics behind the scenes. Thumbs-up, Mahmoud!
My husband and I did this private tour in February. The driver Omar was great and we felt very safe in his hands. The guide Hosni was very knowledgeable and took us through the stages of pyramid building in chronological order which I highly recommend. They were timely, flexible and attentive to our needs. The company were available on WhatsApp at all times. We highly recommend them.
What an amazing experience to see the pyramids of Giza. We had an excellent tour guide Zizou who looked after us very well and explained all the details of the museum and pyramids that we visited. This was a great experience!!
Amazing day, with our fantastic guide Mohammed Gomaa, that really blew our minds away. A busy day, but worth it. Do add the additional visits to the Unas pyramid (best preserved inside) and Serapum tomb (amazing complex underground) to make it a complete overview. We really can recommend Mohammed and DeluxeTours to anyone. We had in total 5 days of their services and it was all perfectly arranged.
a very nice tour with Hosni seeing Great views and magnificent architectures soooooo close to the history
We really enjoyed the Giza pyramids and Sakkara Dashur tour. Hosny was very kind, informative and our personal photographer! They got us cold water which was nice. Thank you for the memories! We also liked how they listened to our preferences (no shopping stops, only pyramids). It was also a plus that they were flexible with taking us to the airport as requested, thank you Anwar.
I was picked up from the airport by Mohamed Ali the organizer in a nice air conditioned car with a kind diver who drove safe and with cautious in a busy Cairo streets to the hotel. Went for tour with a very knowledgeable, experienced and professional tour guide to many wonderful places during my stay and went to shop from credible stores to buy authentic Egyptian souvenirs with reasonable prices .. Zanaty our tour guide was also a great photographer took many great pictures that was surprisingly creative. I highly recommend to hire this great team of professionals for your next trip
My friends and I spent the whole day seeing Saqarra, Memphis, and the Giza pyramids with Zanaty and Sayed the driver. We had a wonderful day. Zanaty and Sayed were early picking us up from our hotel, which we appreciated. Zanaty was so knowledgeable and clearly excited about what he does. He shared with us so much information and was able to answer all of our questions. He chose a wonderful lunch restaurant which was also able to accommodate my vegetarian friend, and we grooved to some Egyptian music and saw them make Egyptian bread. My other friend loves to shop, and he bargained for her and made sure she got the best deal for all of her purchases and took us to a store selling Egyptian cotton goods for her to buy sheets. We wish we had more time in Egypt, because we would certainly book another excursion with Deluxe Tours and Zanaty! Ask for him, you won't be disappointed.
Hosni was a great tour guide and very friendly. He takes great photos. He explained the history behind Giza and the step pyramid.
Mohammed is a treasure trove of information about everything we saw on the first day. We visited Saqqara, Memphis, and Giza and were very awestruck. Everything was brought to life by his stories of history and culture. Highly recommend.
Mohammed was outstanding. Very knowledgeable of the history and helpful with his suggestions for n where to spend time. We had a small group of four and optimized everything perfectly and took care of lots of details seamlessly. Of course, the pyramids were amazing. We got so many great pictures. Overall, a perfect day!
We had a fantastic time. Very educational, entertaining, fun, at a relaxing pace, Mohammad was an absolute gem and so looking forward to our day tomorrow. Also Omar our driver was a great. Highly recommend booking this tour.
I had an incredible time during my layover tour with Deluxe! My guide, Mohammed, was very personable and knowledgeable and put the effort into making sure I had a good time as a solo traveler! My driver, Omar, was kind and a very safe driver as well. As my layover was 17 hours, Mohammed and Omar provided some extra stops to make the most of my time in Cairo, including visiting local/historic rug-weaving, paper-making, and essential oils businesses. Omar even took me to ride a felucca on the Nile after my tour was over (for an extra $30) which was something I had really wanted to do but didn't think I would be able to. Lunch was at a decent buffet-style restaurant, although be aware that you'll have to pay for your drinks (they're cheap though). Of the three scheduled destinations, I loved Saqqara the most. We got there early in the morning when there weren't many tourists and I got to see tombs up close and personal (for an additional cost). Overall, this tour was more than I could've asked for and I highly recommend it!
Great friendly tour experience. Mohamed was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Ramadan the bus driver did a great job and even bought us a fresh drink each. A fantastic day out exploring Cairo and the Pyramids!!
I had the pleasure of been with Mohamed Gomaa for a guided tour during the hole day here in Egypt. It was an amazing experience !! He was very pontual, told me everything about history and took excellent pictures of me ! LOL I really recommend him !
We booked a private tour to visit Memphis, Saqqara and Giza pyramids with Deluxe Travel Egypt on a very short notice. Impressed with their professionalism and quick communication. Tito, Egyptologist and excellent storyteller, and the driver picked us up at the hotel the next day and off we went. We had an amazing time and learned so much. It is a plus to go in a smallish group because you are more agile to move around. It’s also handier to listen to Tito’s explanations. (Ask him about the Greek weddingcake) Clearly he knows the history and sites inside out and showed us bits and pieces that you would miss as a tourist going solo. He also knows the best spots to take a photo :) We started off in Memphis, then Saqqara and finished with the pyramids and sfinx in Giza. If you have to chose between Giza or Saqqara, opt for the latter. There is much more to see and to learn about. Make sure to buy an extra ticket to go in the tomb. Quite mesmerizing! We were grateful that our driver foresaw cooled water for purchase. Also, bring a scarf to protect you from sun, sand and wind. And some euros or dollars if you want to buy a souvenir.
We got an amazing tour lead by Titto who taught us so much! I especially loved the temple complex at Saqqara, and the majestic Sphinx!
Our personalized tour arranged by Deluxe Egypt Tours was amazing. We were greeted by Hosni at the beginning of our tour and were accompanied to visit Saqqara, Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx. Hosni was knowledgeable and also helped us get pictures- which was a plus. Would definitely recommend booking your next day trip with them.
This is my first time in Kemet! I am actually in Africa, a dream realized!!! The Pyramids were breathtaking, and the tour was amazing! Mohammed, my tour guide, was well informed about ancient Kemet and Egypt 🇪🇬
We had a great first day with Mahmoud as our private tour guide for our family of 3 {2 adults and 6 yo). This was the first of 3 days and I'll return to update and add at the end of the 3. We toured Giza (including the great pyramids and Sphinx), Saqqara (going inside a tomb and into one of the pyramids), and Memphis with special stops to pick up unique souvenirs. Mahmoud had great knowledge and is a great story teller! Special shout out to Ihab, who navigated the drive safely and confidently.
Had a wonderful day exploring Memphis, Saqqara, and Giza! Guide and driver were early, professional, and fun. Driver Essam Hamdon piloted the van expertly and carefully, making me feel perfectly safe. Guide Mohamed Gomaa spoke excellent English, was passionate about the history of the places we visited, but knew to give me some space to take in each site rather than talk my ear off. He volunteered interesting information, could answer all my questions, and even snapped some great pics of me since I was traveling solo. What more could you want? The included lunch was a buffet of mostly traditional foods and was delicious! Remember to ask for Essam and Mohamed!
Not only our private tour to the Pyramids has been fantastic but also all our trip to Egypt. If you are planning a trip to this lovely country, didn't think twice and contact Yasser Mahran from Deluxe Egypt Travel agence. Yasser has quickly answered all our questions and solved our doubts from the very first moment we contacted him. He has arrangés everything for our 12-days trip through thé country if pharaons ( transfer hotels-airports, guides tours of Cairo, Nile Cruise, visit to Abu Simbel, doméstic flights to Asean and Hurghada....with an unbeatable quality/price ratio. Throughout thé trip he has kept in touch with us to confirm that everything was going well and that made us feell safe and confident. Without any doubts I will contact him again if I ever return to Egypt !!!!!!
Rasha Yehia Mobark was an excellent companion during my friend and my day in Cairo. She was very polite, friendly, and went out of her way to make our tour educational and fun. We felt very safe with her and ended our tour with some delicious Kosharie food that she recommended to us.
Our dearest Egyptologist Rasha yehia Mubarak was really knowledgeable and friendly! We had a great time learning about Egyptian history.
Exellent tour with Rasha yehia Mubarak, who speake a great english. She was very knowledgeable and when above and behond on the tour!
