Cairo culture experience tour - Yesterday, I had a wonderful day in Cairo. I visited the Coptic churches and the Mohammad Ali Mosque and had an extensive guided tour of the Egyptian Museum. Finally, we stopped at a restaurant. I would like to thank my tour guide Marian for her dedication!

A journey with great learning - It was an excellent experience. Sheriff's Guide made the tour welcoming and informative. They care about pickup and arrival at your hotel. We managed to get even deeper into the country which is full of history and beautiful monuments.

Excellent Service - I visited Cairo with friends and booked a tour guide Mohamed Galal with Trip Egypt tours. He was very helpful and caring. Always asking if we are ok. Also booked a very good restaurant for dinner for us . We spent almost all day with him. His services were excellent and went extra mile . He is an asset to this company.

Not great tour but good tour guide! - My tour guide Tarek was great. Personable and very informative at the museum and the citadel — he is an experienced Egyptologist. He also offered to take loads of photos for me. Great guy! However, the tour company itself/ the tour operator is not great. The tour operator was not organised and messed up my rescheduled appointment (I understand that accidents happen and affected my tour guide more than more). Also, the tour company allows early afternoon/late morning option but many of the sites close by 4:30pm which doesn’t make sense. Lastly, the tour is advertised as 9 hours but it is only around 4 hours — it felt rushed in the museum which is not the tour guide’s fault as he stuck to the itinerary. If you want an all-day (or even half a day) tour in Cairo, I wouldn’t recommend this one. But I do recommend the tour guide for Egyptology.
