Traveler reviews
EMO Tours are amazing - Clean Cars - Good Guides - no hidden charges - Everything as promised
This was our third tour with Emo and like others it was fantastic. The cars were clean, the drivers professional and our guide “Khadija” were also quite educated and amazing. We had amazing conversation and loved how she was candid in sharing interesting facts not just about the trip but about Egypt as well. Everything was given as per promise, the camel ride was good, the food was also very nice (which was ok in other places). No one hassled us to go to this shop or that shop for perfumes or papyrus. No one asked for tips - but we did give tips. So all in all I will definitely recommend EMO tours for any tours in Egypt.
Great days in Cairo!

Incredible experience with Emo Tours Egypt
I had an unforgettable experience with Emo Tours at the Pyramids of Giza, and I can’t recommend it enough, especially with Mohamed Hamed as the guide. From the start, Mohamed was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He brought ancient history to life in a way that was engaging and easy to connect with. I booked the full package: a camel ride, a professional photoshoot, entrance into the Pyramid of Giza, and a visit to the Sphinx. Every part of it was seamless and so worth it. Mohamed made sure I felt comfortable throughout, shared fascinating stories, and even helped capture amazing photos. It also happened to be my birthday, and to my complete surprise, Mohamed brought out a birthday cake at the end of the tour. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made the day even more special. As a solo traveler, I appreciated how personalized and memorable the whole experience was. If you’re visiting Cairo, do yourself a favor and book this tour with Mohamed. It was truly the highlight of my trip.
Amazing experience we couldn't miss
Omar Mustafa has been an amazing guide. No doubt the visit would not have been the same without him. Very friendly and friendly, always attentive. He has told us many interesting things about the pyramids and sphinx. Definitely a great experience.
