An Unforgettable Experience in Egypt 🇪🇬 with Emo tours

Jamila & John from The Netherlands– ✨ We recently visited Egypt and had the incredible opportunity to explore the Pyramids with a private guide from Emo Tours — and what an experience it was! From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized. We were picked up from our hotel on time, and the entire process felt smooth, professional, and well taken care of. Once we arrived, we met our guide, Mohamed Hamed. From the very first moment, he made us feel comfortable and at ease. His knowledge of the Pyramids and Egyptian history is truly outstanding, and he explained everything in a clear, engaging, and passionate way. Mohamed Hamed went above and beyond — he helped us take amazing photos, thought along with us, and made sure nothing was too much to ask. It honestly felt like we had known him for years. If we had to describe him in a few words: knowledgeable, dedicated, and trustworthy. He also made sure we felt safe at all times and really listened to our wishes. We highly recommend Emo Tours and especially Mohamed Hamed to anyone visiting Egypt. This was not just a tour — it was a memorable and personal experience we will never forget.

High Dam and Aswan Temple visit

Mohammed is an excellent guide and explained The Aswan Dam and The Philae Temple History very well. He is a go to person when you are at Aswan

My worst experience in Egypt ever 😡😡

This is one of the worst companies I've ever dealt with in Egypt. Appointments change frequently, the cars are unclean, the driver speeds, everything is terrible. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone based on this experience.

I do not recommend anyone to try this company at all.

The worst company in Egypt. The driver is reckless in driving and the tour guide is not good at explaining at all. All he wants is to go to the shops for us to buy anything. I learned later that they get half of the money paid by tourists.

Our guide Rania was...

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.
