The company was very good, particularly with logistics and guides. Their drivers arrived on time and the tour guides were good to very good. The assistance of the expeditors at Cairo airport was helpful. Wonders of Egypt provided recommendations on hotels and anything we asked, but one must ask. Any issues were resolved expeditiously by the company and did not recur. Our itinerary was set by us. We used one from a friend who had used the company a year earlier and then made modifications. A better approach would be to research what one would like to do and ask the touring company to build an itinerary around that. Another approach could be to ask Wonders of Egypt for their default itinerary and then modify that as required. We did not do the multi-day Nile cruise choosing to go to Hurghada instead. We did do the dinner cruise in Cairo but would not recommend it. The Nile cruise or the trip to Hurghada is a time to relax from the hectic sight-seeing. We also did not go to Abu Simbel since it involved a long early morning drive. We were not aware that there are flights from Cairo and Luxor to Abu Simbel that we could have used. Wonders of Egypt did not inform us of this. If short of time, you may want to skip going to the market in Cairo, the alabaster factory, textile factory, rug making demonstration or perfume demonstrations. We would recommend focusing on the historical ancient monuments and the museums.

I had an amazing day on this tour! Everything was perfectly organized, allowing me to explore at my own pace. Special thanks to my guide Hassan and driver Hawash for making the experience unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Thank you very much Ali for the exciting day-trip in Cairo! You are wonderful guide! It was really very interesting to listen to your passionate stories about egyptian history and culture!

We booked our day trip to Cairo from Sharm El Sheikh directly with Wonders of Egypt Tours. Communication was excellent pre-departure from the UK and all our queries were answered promptly, which we were very grateful for. Preparation is key for us when travelling with our teenage sons who are both autistic. We were given the WhatsApp contact numbers of the drivers and guides prior to our day trip. Pick up from our hotel to the airport was prompt and courteous. We were met by our lovely Cairo driver for the day on leaving the terminal building there. We drove to Giza where we stopped at a service station with an incredible view of the pyramids! We were grateful for good coffee and a snack. There met our wonderful guide Anan, after introductions and a chat about the day we were soon on our way to the pyramids! Arriving not long after the site opened, it was peaceful and almost felt like we had the area to ourselves for a while. Anan gave us lots of history; she’s clearly a knowledgeable Egyptologist, however she tailored it perfectly to allow our sons to process all of the information. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring this incredible site, learning fascinating stories of the pyramids, sphinx and mummification temple whilst having plenty of opportunity for questions, photos; stopping at some wonderful vantage points. Next stop(at our request)was a jewellery shop as we were keen to purchase a cartouches. Anan knew where to take us and ensured we were well looked after. We even got to watch the production process thanks to her. We were ready for lunch and headed to the famous Abou Tarek for a traditional Koshary lunch, which was delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed conversations with Anan about life in Cairo and sharing with her about our life in Wales. We headed to the museum, once again Anan shared her vast knowledge but tailoring it perfectly to our needs as a family. Finally we took to the Nile in a traditional Felucca, which was so peaceful and interesting allowing us see Cairo from a different perspective. Before we knew it, it was time to head back to the airport. Throughout the day we were so well taken care of by Anan, she collected all the entrance tickets for us, ordered lunch and ensured that we were comfortable and happy at all times. It was a pleasure to spend the day with her, we were so grateful to have her as our guide. Our driver was excellent, we felt extremely safe in his hands as he navigated the roads all over Cairo. He dropped and collected us from convenient locations. My top tip would be to organise your visa for Cairo before arriving in Egypt. I tried a number of times but the website was incredibly glitchy when I attempted. Feeling I was getting too close to arrival in Egypt I opted to bring US dollars to pay for ours. You actually need the visa in order to leave Sharm El Sheikh, you don’t obtain it on arrival in Cairo which is what I was led to believe. We were scammed in Sharm El Sheikh airport by two firm and abrupt ground staff who told us that extra money was required in order to get the visa “stamp” in addition to the visa fee. With a flight departing imminently and a fear of not making our day trip; we felt we had no choice to pay, it was quite an unpleasant experience. I have since researched and found this is allegedly a common scam at the airport here. This is obviously separate to the Wonders of Egypt Tours but I wanted to raise awareness so other tourists can be wary of this. All in all I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Wonders of Egypt Tours, an excellent company providing high quality tours across Egypt with customer happiness and satisfaction a priority. If we’re back in Egypt we would book with them in a heart beat and we would also request our fantastic guide Anan once again. Thank you all so much for giving us many special holiday memories.

An unforgettable experience for us. It was a long day but everything went smoothly and we avoided the big crowds. Ahmed was very professional throughout, spoke fluent English and went the extra mile to accommodate when we wanted to make an unscheduled stop for a drink and photo’s at the French restaurant by the pyramids! He was friendly and relaxed, nothing was too much trouble. Our driver weaved through the busy traffic in Cairo with great skill, we felt safe at all times. Hassle free day with a lovely cruise down the Nile to end a perfect day!!

Communication between myself and company was second to none. They are very helpful and patient with all my questions. Every step of the way mapped out and details of pick up told in advance keeping you safe. Driver to the airport was amazing and he picked us up again on the way back. On arrival at Cairo coming out of the airport is abit hectic people asking if you need a taxi but you will be greeted with an already booked which you will be told before hand driver. Ours was 5 mins late so we did walk around trying to find him but if you stay at the exit(when you come to leave airport carry straight on to first exit) that’s were he will meet you and then you walk couple of minutes to car. First stop pyramids so you miss the crowds which is a must really for photos then dinner in a place called first class. Food was nice choice of burger(no bun) chips or fish or chicken. Then to see a fashion show(not on program but well worth it so funny 15mins) Onto museum lots to see amazing. Maybe ask for sometime to look around yourself for some of your time there as the guide is very knowledgeable. Then the Nile which was nice though nothing like I imagined it to look like and then back to airport. So glad I did it and cannot fault company.

What an amazing day in Cairo, thanks to Wonders of Egypt Tours! We booked a last-minute trip to Cairo (less than 24 hours before the excursion), and we couldn’t be more impressed with the entire process. The communication was superb, and every stage of our journey went smoothly. Ali, our tour guide, was incredibly helpful from start to finish and made the trip totally stress-free—especially important after a 4 AM flight! The tour organized all the taxi transfers, from the hotel to the airport and then from the airport to Giza. Our driver, Mohamed, remained calm and made the journey feel safe despite the chaotic traffic in Cairo. He truly deserves a medal for his driving! He took care of us throughout the entire day, and we couldn’t thank him enough. Ali greeted us on our way to Giza and was friendly from the very beginning. He explained everything clearly from start to finish. His extensive knowledge allowed us to learn so much. Ali presented the history in a way that was easy for my mum and me to understand, even though we had little prior knowledge. My dad, who had more background in the area, asked many questions, and Ali answered them all with expertise and passion. I believe he will make an incredible Egyptologist! I wish him the best in his career and hope he discovers hidden treasures along the way. Don’t be put off by any concerns! We almost hesitated to go because we had been told there were no flights available from our hotel, which turned out to be untrue. Additionally, we had heard about possible delays with flights and poor communication from other tour providers. However, with Wonders of Egypt, there were zero delays! They offered several flight options and simply informed us that our preferred flight was slightly more expensive, which we were happy to pay. We even returned earlier than expected and had time for dinner at the hotel. We purchased a visa at the airport, which our taxi driver helped us navigate, making that process easy and stress-free as well. We highly recommend this tour, and if you can opt for a private experience, it is definitely worth it!

The communication with Ali from start to finish regarding details of the trip was excellent, response times were very quick and all questions not matter how small were answered. At every stage we were met by a driver whose details we were provided beforehand. Our driver in Cairo, Tamer, was excellent despite having to navigate unusually bad traffic due to a presidential visit! Our guide for the day, Mustafa, was exceptional. We benefitted greatly from his experience as a tour guide and local knowledge as well as his incredible insight and passion for history. He made the entire day come alive and really looked after us throughout all the site visits. Seeing the Pyramids and the Sphinx was a dream come true for us and the rest of the tour which we originally considered ‘incidentals’ of the trip were also amazing and we enjoyed them all immensely. We would thoroughly recommend this tour, it is absolutely worthwhile!

This trip is amazing. Pyramids, Cairo, Egyptian museum, Nile cruise, shopping - what more could you want? Private tour with our guide - Ali who was amazing- so knowledgable - far more than we ever expected. Communication right from booking the trip was excellent - within minutes of booking, contact was made to book and confirm flights and discuss trip. It’s a long and tiring day but so worth it for the experience. Our family group was 2 adults and 1 child (10 years old). We were incredibly well looked after throughout the whole trip. Collected from our hotel, taken to Sharm el sheik airport. Collected again at Cairo airport and met Ali our guide for the day. Both drivers were fabulous - hameed and Mr X 😁 Domestic flights easy to find and negotiate our way through. The trip included lunch which was buffet style in a restaurant - nice 👍. My advice for this trip is to be prepared for a long and tiring day (collected from hotel at 3.45am, arrived back at 9pm, walked 16,000 steps) and make sure you have money (cash or card) if you want to shop (paper, oils, spices, Egyptian cotton). Fantastic day- we have sooooo many photographs and memories - thank you so much ❤️

Awesome tour to Alexandria! Confortable and safe drive from Cairo, visit of Alexandria with Maha excellent guide with huge knowledge and great social skills 😊

We had an amazing experience with Ali as our tour guide! His deep knowledge, engaging storytelling, and warm personality made the tour truly unforgettable. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time, answering all our questions and sharing fascinating insights. Ali’s passion for his work really shows, and we felt so lucky to have him guide us. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun and informative experience. Thank you, Ali, for making our trip so special!

Ali was absolutely fantastic! He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and helpful throughout the entire experience. He took the time to answer all of our questions and made sure we fully understood everything. His professionalism and kindness truly stood out, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. It wasn’t my first time taking this tour, but it was by far the best one I’ve had. Everything was well-organized, engaging, and enjoyable from start to finish, and Ali’s passion and expertise made all the difference. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience, and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of expert assistance. Thank you, Ali, for your outstanding service

Ali has great knowledge of Egyptian history and had explained to us in clear and interesting manner! We enjoyed it very much - highly recommended!
