Wonderful Visit

We personally asked for a female tour guide since we are both females and it worked out very well. Radwa, our tour guide did a wonderful job explaining and showing us the sights (she also took good pictures). The Pyramids are just amazing and going inside one of them is worth the experience, even if the only thing inside is a granite sarcophagus. The Sphinx and the Egyptian Museum are wonderful too.
Great day and experience !

It was my first visit to Cairo with my mum. We decided to take a guided tour with Sergio. It was such a great experience and day. He first took us to the pyramids and sphinx, where we enjoyed a nice Kamel ride. We then discovered a fragrance boutique followed by the visit of the official papyrus institute of Cairo. We then had a great local lunch and finished our day at the Egyptian museum where once again Sergio taught us a lot about his culture and history. We finally ended our tour at the oldest cafe of Cairo and had a lovely chat about Egypt. He is really knowledgable and therefore gave us the best highlights of the Egyptian history. He took us great pictures too.I highly recommend his services. Sergio is really kind, trustworthy and helpful. He also speaks arabic, English and Italian fluently which is great! See you soon :)

It is extremely difficult to find words suitable to describe the level of commitment and service we received from Egypt Sightseeing tours during our stay in Egypt.we went to the Pyramids with my family and we enjoyed too much. And our guide named Angela was very enthusiastic,informative and helpful. She explained everything for us. She is very knowledgeable about the Egyptian history. Egypt Sightseeing tours is the best of the best Company in Egypt. When we come back to Egypt we will book with this Company. High Recommended!!!
Pyramids and Museum

My guide was a young man named Pasqualino. He was polite, friendly and was knowledgeable in the history of the pyramids and Egyptian historical artifacts in the museum.

At the pyramids Pasqualino also encouraged me to explore the pyramids by going down the narrow shaft leading to the Queen’s burial chamber. He also asked me to try the camel ride which I was glad that I did it because it was a unique experience and there was many nice pictures that was taken on the camel with the pyramids.

The tour included a fabulous buffet lunch in a restaurant overlooking the pyramids. It was comfortable in the air conditioned car driven carefully and courteously by the driver with music from the Beatles and Egyptian music.

I was also taken to the souvenir shops selling Papyrus artwork and other souvenirs where I bought some souvenirs but I was not pressured to buy.

The good thing about Pasqualino, apart from his knowledge is he will advice how much to tip if you wanted to tip someone.

Overall it was a fantastic tour and I would highly recommend Pasqualino to show you around as the guide. Most guides are freelancers, so you can request the tour company for the guide you want.
