Great day in Old Cairo!
CarolinaChic9, 29-10-2021
Another great day exploring Cairo with Tonsi! Very knowledgeable and guided us through the Khan al Khalili bazaar ensuring we did not get haggled by the vendors! Tonsi ensured we timed out our day to beat traffic and the crowds! Don’t miss the essential oils shop! You can trust Tonsi will take you to all the best spots and you’ll have fun!
First day in Cairo and it was amazing. Never forget because it was so much fun.

This was my first official day seeing Cairo and everything from my tour with my guide Ola(who is an awesome guide and very nice& takes beautiful pictures of you) was amazing. I already knew from the minute I saw the pyramids of Giza, that I would be blown away but everything that I got to do was so fun. Ending the tour with the felucca was my favorite part. If you go and end up choosing emo Egypt tours, ask for Ola because she is an awesome guide who will help you enjoy your vacation even more
Great tour and excellent guide.

I had a great time during this trip. The tour guide was knowledgeable and funny. He really made me enjoy my time visiting Egypt and listened to my suggestions. I would recommend Mazen 100% to anyone who wants a dependable, charismatic guy.
Highly recommend this tour!

We had a wonderful experience with our tour guide and driver. They are amazing people who treated us with the upmost respect. Tonsi took us to the papyrus factory, the perfume factory and of course showed us around the pyramids in Giza and Saqqara as well as showing us the old capital of Egypt Memphis. He helped us take pictures of us and was so fun!! We highly suggest you book with Emo tours as our experience here in Egypt was the best!
Great tour

Walk thru history in this magical place. I had the opportunity to book this tour with Emo Tours, what a great choice this was. Tour guide full of knowledge about history facts. Emo Tour was the company I booked with and I was very lucky to get Ahmed Tonsi as my guide. He is such a fun and reliable tour guide to assure the experience is the best.
Old Cairo Bazar!!

We had an absolute blast on this tri with Ali! The museum was everything I wanted it to be (how can you take a trip to Egypt without seeing some mummies?). And then we went to the Community of Religions to see some amazing churches, synagogues and mosques. Incredible to see them all in the same place. The last stop was to the Old Cairo Bazar and that would have been worth the trip alone!

Again Ali was amazing and we had an awesome time. We were one of two couples out today and it was nice to share the experience with another American couple as well
