    The driver was excellent, on time always! We had two guides, the first one Dina was not honest with us. She told us that the horse carriage ride around the Giza Pyramids was $35 USD per person cash. We were gullible and gave her the money, she put the money in her pocket. There was no receipt and the horse driver told us that was not the price. So we were very disappointed by this incident. Also it was Friday and we wanted to go pray Jummah and she was very reluctant. We ended up praying on the street outside some random mosque. Dina took us to places that wanted us to buy their carpets. She took us to vendors that she knew and would not let us buy from random vendors. The second guide was ok, she was knowledgeable about Islamic Cario. By now we were very cautious.

    The Tour was informative and fun. It gave me everything I wanted. The Communication with the tour manager was very good. This tour is really good if you are interested in the history as the tour guide seemed very knowledeable. Sadly, from the 25 possible people to join the tour, I was the only one who booked for this time, so keep that in mind And the prices for museum, old cairo and Pyramids are not included

    "Tour Package 4 Days Cairo, Giza & Alexandria In 4 Stars Hotels" was the tour that my husband and I went on. It was a short trip to surprise my husband for his birthday. Everything was great- there was someone to fetch us from the airport, we stayed at an amazing hotel and we visited marvellous places. I really wanted to visit the pyramids and I knew my husband, who loves history, would want to visit Alexandria as well, so I focused on those places. Thank you to Ancient Egypt Tours for taking care of us, and giving us a memorable experience. ❤️

    We had a great time on this tour. We appreciated the downtime but also being able to add on activities at the last minute, such as the Nile Dinner River Cruise. The hotel had quite a bit of construction and the wifi wasn't great but other than that, it was fine. Aya, our tour guide, was amazing. She was very informative and so much fun. We also appreciated that she provided just the right balance of giving us information and letting us have time to ourselves. We did the tour on Christmas Day and holiday hours affected our ability to get to everything but that was okay. We took more time shopping than I think was expected :) so that also did affect our ability to make it to the church by the adjusted holiday hours. Overall, great experience. Easy to book and communicate .

    I have booked this private tour for kids and me to see the most important historical sights in Cairo without being in a big group. I can highly recommended this company as well as their tour guide Dina. She was very professional and understanding for our needs. The 3 days were perfect to get around and see everything important.
