Poor communication

We were never picked up exiting the airport. There is only one place everyone exits and we waited 40 minutes. No one was there with a sign with our name on it. We tried to call the number on our reservation but it only went to voicemail. They said they were there but how could they have been there. They should have given us a good contact ahead and verified exactly where to pick up - inside, outside, across the first lane of traffic etc. We have never been to Egypt before so our phone didn’t work at first but tried calling with another person’s phone. Poor communication.

Very disappointing airport transfer experience

We were extremely disappointed with this private transfer from Cairo airport. Despite notifying them 7 days in advance about a flight change and following up multiple times on WhatsApp, we only got a response right before our flight. The last-minute driver arrived very late, we waited 20 minutes, and the car was dirty and in terrible condition. The trunk was already full of the driver’s personal belongings, so our luggage barely fit. Overall, the service was unprofessional and stressful and definitely not what we expected.

A guide became rude once I am not interested in tours he is trying to sell

A guide was friendly initially, however, he started sales of tours and once I said I was not interested in, his attitude became extremely rude. I will not recommend this.

Cairo Airport PIck Up

The guide and driver were great. The only reason this is a 4 vs 5 star us that when we arrived we had difficulty finding who h took help from others and took about 20 minutes. I suggest always having a sign as that is what we had expected.

Emo Tours pick up was Amazing!

Emo Tours was great! We had a slight delay due to customs, and they waited patiently. Would book again!
