          Great transportation support
          Islam, the driver who picked us from and back to the hotel was amazing. He acted like a family member and supported us throughout the cruise on the Nile.

          Cairo Pyramids luxor east n west bank with hot air balloon
          We booked our complete Egypt tours with Mr. Taimor which consists of: 1. Cairo VIP Great pyramids tour with Nile dinner cruise. 2. Private Hurghada to Luxor east and west bank overnight tour with sun rise hot air balloon. The overall experience of the tour was very great, the tour guides (Cairo- Mrs Gada, Luxor- Mr Carlos) were very humble who explained us everything in detail. Ample time for visiting the monuments. Very flexible with our needs and requirements. The hospitality was very great!!! Highly recommended and satisfied with the services. Cleanliness- 5*, Punctuality- 5*, overall experience- 5*

          Dinner boat in Cairo
          We were not sure initially what will come next as a part of this dinner boat tour. To our surprise there were many activities (Dancing, singing, great food including veg and non-veg etc.) We couldn't realize how fast the time was passed, and we wished to have more time on this dinner boat. Amazing feeling and extra ordinary experience. Thank you tour company to provide us such a great tour. This is a must tour for everyone if you are going to Cairo.

          Cairo City Tour
          We had a great time and were able to cover most of the City attractions. Our guide was speaking very good English and gave us lots of details which made our experience really awesome. We can only thank the Tour company to give us such a great experience for a city like Cairo.

          Short visit to Egypt
          Well it's a life time experience on a Nile river in a cruise ship. The food was amazing, the dance, music and other programs were also good.

          Great night at the Nile
          The location of our table thanks to our guide was really good. Our driver for the night (Kamel Ali) was really considerate as previously we needed to find a ATM to pay for the drinks but he pointed out that we could pay with card on the cruise. We really enjoyed the dinner and the dancers, specially the Cerviches. We had a great time.

          Ask for Omar as your guide!
          The dinner cruise on the Nile River was great, but what my husband and I were impressed with the most was our driver/tour guide Omar! He was fantastic! He was prompt in picking us up from the hotel and we enjoyed his personality so much. Omar is a super nice and pleasant guy! He made us feel safe and he assured us we’d have a good seat on the cruise. As folks jockeyed for position to get on the cruise, Omar told us not to worry and he for sure got us a great location on the cruise. I highly recommend him to anyone and we hope to see him again one day. Thanks for everything Omar!!

          Unexpectedly so much fun
          It was really great. Much better than what I expected. My driver Eslam was so kind and attentive and good. The cruise was fabulous. So many dancers so many types of food and live music. So much fun. I thank Timour and Eslam again for this tour.

          Great entertainment for night time
          We had an entertaining evening on the Nile boat cruise. The food was delicious and the entertainment was enjoyable to watch. The service for drinks was good as well. Would recommend for entertainment at night.

          A very enjoyable and informative day in Cairo
          The whole day was very good indeed. Ghana, the guide, arrived very early. She was very friendly and cooperative. She made it clear that she was there to make the day as good as possible for us and was flexible and helpful. I would recommend Ghada as a tour guide for a day in Cairo.

        We booked the tour for "Alexandria Private Day Tour from Cairo", and our Tour guide Mr. Eslam has given us all necessary information we need to know. He was very very supportive and helpful. He had not only helped to know more about this tour but was taking care of us in a much more professional way than we expected. Aldo, he helped to take our lots of pictures :) We were personally very happy to have this tour, and will highly recommend to use this. Also, We found a very different and positive multi culture perspective of Alexandria in Egypt than Cairo, great city to explore.

        Our first day exploring Egypt couldn’t have started better, all thanks to our exceptional tour guide, Eslam. He brought history to life with fascinating stories about every place we visited, blending knowledge with humor to make the experience both educational and entertaining. His warm personality and thoughtful gestures truly stood out—he even treated us to delicious local fruits and went above and beyond by arranging a picturesque seaside lunch.

        Eslam’s flexibility was remarkable; he accommodated all our requests and adjusted the itinerary to suit our preferences. The highlight of his exceptional service was his generosity and understanding. When we faced challenges exchanging money, he covered our expenses for food, shopping, and tips without hesitation, allowing us to enjoy the day stress-free. We reimbursed him at the end of the day, but his kindness left a lasting impression.

        Eslam’s dedication and hospitality made this tour unforgettable for all seven of us. Thank you, Eslam, for an incredible start to our Egyptian adventure!

Not only he did a great job explaining all the cultural sites we visited during the tour but also he shared a lot fun stories and brought me to a great restaurant by the Alexandria seashore. The whole trip was fun and relaxing ! Highly recommend!

        One day trip from Cairo with family was fantastic. The Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa, Ancient Roman Amphitheater, the Library, Mosque of Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi, Fort Qaitbey and more, thanks to our guide Aalaa Gaber, not a guide shall say a good friend who took special care of us whole day. Additionally, she made us travel in a local tram in downtown, suggested a good restaurant and food as well. And thanks to Timour Imam for organizing such a wonderful trip. Happy to recommend my friends and family to both of you.

        The guide Islam and the driver Ahmed were great! Islam was very knowledge and overall very calm presence which was nice from the hustle and bustle of Cairo. Alexandria was a very nice city to see coming from Cairo as the seaside feels like an escape from city life. Islam is flexible and willing to coordinate the schedule such that you do everything you want. We were able to go to the Catacombs, Jewelry museum, Library, castle, and lastly a late lunch on the seaside of Egyptian-Greek food. Overall, this was a very nice trip where we really got a feel for the city of Alexandria thanks to Islam.

        This private tour to Alexandria could not have been better. My guide, Timour, took me to all of the best places in the city and was very knowledgeable about the history. Timour made the journey to this amazing city an awesome experience and really fun too. Couldn’t recommend more!

        I had a tour to Alexandria today and would like to recommend it to everyone. The guide Kamel is a very nice and accommodating person, and a top-notch driver. Thanks to Kamel we managed to accomplish the full program even despite the multi-hour traffic jam. The experience before and during the tour was excellent.

        We had an amazing time with Timou and his assistant Muhammad. Timou was our main guide and he made our journey very pleasant. He is very accommodating, fun and relaxed but also very knowledgeable. We liked Timou so much so we booked another trip with him the next day. Highly recommended! :)

        We had a very very wonderful experience with eslam. He is such a good man. He even helped us with money, we did not have Egyptian pound for local purchases. He gave all his money to us for that and also gifted fruits for us to eat. He is a very kind hearted man. We really loved our tour with him. he had good knowledge about the history and explained everything so clearly and nicely. No hurry he did and made and adjusted the plan according to our needs. Speaks politely. Good tour

        Eslam met me at the catacombs to start out the day - he was extremely knowledgeable in the history but also the neighborhood and Alexandria as a whole. We made our way to Pompey’s Pillar after. Eslam balanced a mix of hands on guiding and free wandering time, which I like. Stopped for lunch then hit the citadel on the water (highlight of the day). Last stop was the library of Alexandria. The tour was as stated and did not make any unannounced stops for random sales pitches like some of the other tours in Cairo.
