Exclusive Giza Pyramids & Saqqara: Ancient Egypt Private Journey

Our guide Rania was absolutely fantastic! She was knowledgeable, patient, funny and took lots of photos to help us remember the day. We wish we took a photo with her! We strongly recommend this if you’re wanting a special experience.

Another incredible tour offered by EMO tours, the driver and guide were both professional and knowledgeable, with plenty of insider knowledge. We were able to enter the great pyramid before many of the other tourists, with only a few people inside we were able to get some amazing photos. The buffet lunch was delicious and would be impossible to leave feeling hungry!

Awesome guide Pierre, very friendly and knowledgeable, took lots of pictures, just a fantastic tour. Thank you for a great tour, would recommend

Excellent service, our guide Haddy went out of the way to make our days extra special, 10 out 10 fully happy, we booked two extra activities because we enjoyed the service so much, they made sure everything went smoothly and we loved it! We will definitely be booking again and recommending to friends and family

Our trip has been nothing but an incredible and heart warming experience. Out guide, Amira has been extremely knowledgeable and helpful and has not failed to answer any of our millions of questions. She was very kind and made our overall experience extremely enjoyable. Mohammed, our driver, has been equally as kind, mannered and helpful, maintained a nice atmosphere for the entire duration of the trip. The whole story was otherworldly, well explained in words as if we’ve lived it ourselves. Timing was perfect as we had all the time we needed and nothing was rushed. Thank you for this unforgettable moment.

Overall great experience. The guide was very knowledgeable and was able to convey the history to us in an understandable manner. The driver was also very friendly and kept his car clean and in very good condition.

We travelled with two small children and both the guides and the driver were very patient and attentive with them and were flexible when we needed to change plans (having earlier lunch). The guide made lots of memorable photos for the children. Thank you so much for an amazing day!!!

I took a full-day tour to Sakkara, Memphis, and the Giza Pyramids with a driver Mahhmoud and guide Heba, and overall, it was a good experience. The driver was very safe and professional, and the guide was friendly, knowledgeable about the Egyptian history. The highlights were definitely the ancient sites, especially Sakkara, though I wish we had spent more time there exploring additional pyramids and tombs. The only downside was the time spent at the carpet, papyrus, and essence stores. The visit to the papyrus store was uncomfortable—the staff became overly pushy and aggressive when I chose not to make a purchase. Despite that, the tour was well-organized and offered a great introduction to some of Egypt’s most iconic landmarks.

What worked: Guide and Driver both arrived on time, picked us up from the hotel and took us the the places that were on the itinerary. What did not work: Guide (Osama) was totally inexperienced or not at all interested in showing and telling anything. Moreover, Guide worked against us. The vendor agreed to give us camel ride at the pyramids for 500EGP per person but the guide went and told the vendor not to do that and forced us to get a camel ride for 25 USD per person. Guide also got upset with us and did not tell us anything afterwards for the rest of the tour. It felt like we had two drivers for the rest of the itinerary. Not sure how we could have asked for a better guide or prevented this. We had booked six more excursions with Viator for our Egypt trip and we had amazing experiences with the rest of them.

We had a brilliant tour with Hazem as our guide. We went early and he knew all the tricks to get us through security and queues quickly, and he was really knowledgeable about the history of the sites. He took brilliant photos of us too. The tour was well organised with great stops, and they even dropped us off at the GEM at the end. A very comfortable car with air con and Kerim was a brilliant and safe driver.
