Our tour in Cairo was great. Ayman our tour guide was great, polite and very knowledgeable. He’s fluent in English. He went above and beyond to answer all of our historical and cultural questions. We enjoyed the tour with him so much that we booked more tours with him the following days. The agency Emo Tours were great in accommodating all of our requests. We highly recommend it and we would do it again. The tour combines very interesting parts of the history and culture of Egypt.

We were picked on time from our Cairo Hotel for a wonderful end exciting day of visits to the Cairo Egyptian Museum, The Citadel, Khan el-Khalili Bazaar (where he help us haggle the Egyptian way), ending with lunch at the Cairo Tower. Our driver was accomodating and specially skillful manouvering through the complicated Cairo traffic and our guide Sayed Mahmoud took very good care of us, was very attentive, knowleageable and courteous. He had a world of explanations and stories to tell us about Egypt and its history and made our tour thoroughly enjoyable and educational. We arrived back at our

Cannot fault our guide Abdul, he was superb. The only issue is the itinerary. Really the bazaar is about going to a tourist market, not a bazaar. Also, whilst the citadel is worth a visit. You really only see the mosque and get a view over the city, which is often covered but smog and sand dust. Also, the time you get anywhere is dictated by the traffic which can be horrendous to say the least! In hindsight I would have opted to instruct our guide to miss the bazaar and visit Coptic Cairo or something like that. That said we had an enjoyable day and again the tour operator, EMO, were great

Khalid was great! Very informative but was also able to explain things in an easy and digestible manner. He was our first tour guide in Egypt and he was one of our favourite tour guides. The bus was extremely comfortable and ready to go when we were.
