Exceptional tour - Take other tours in Cairo, but this tour with Alì has been exceptional. He is a guide with a lot of culture, he tried every moment to make us feel welcome in his country, he speaks Spanish perfectly and gives you many references from Mexico, Latin America and around the world. We appreciate receiving such a professional service.
Thank you very much and congratulations. There remember my home is your home

Really glad we went… - A really worthwhile trip to the site of the battle of El Alamein - booked with Egypt Royal Tours. We visited the Commonwealth Cemetery & the Museum. The cemetery was very moving - a reminder of how many people from around the world fought & died in North Africa.
Our guide Sara & driver Heitham were friendly & helpful. We stopped for a pleasant lunch & a quick visit to a supermarket on the way back.
All in all, a really good day.

In the footsteps of the 2. World War II - A must for anyone interested in history. The memorials to the Battle of El Alamein are impressive. The military history museum very interesting.

Day Trip to El Alamein - The vehicle was clean and spacious. Guide Heshim was courteous, friendly and knowledgable. We were not rushed. The lunch was a bit delayed but the food was nice. Its well worth the visit to this historical place to visit the Museum and the War Cemetery. As Australians the four of us were proud of the contribution made by the 9th Division to the decisive battle.
We can highly recommend Royal Egypt Tours

Excellent tour - Beautiful cemetery, so happy to finally visit my great grandfathers final resting place. Makes me feel good knowing it is such a well kept cemetery.
Our guide and driver were excellent - very knowledgeable constantly sharing bits of interesting information along the drive. And nothing was an issue for them. We even asked to stop off at the beach for a quick look and some photos.
Would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to visit El Alamein.

Good tour to a historical site. - Took this tour as part of a 3 day trip booked with Egypt Royal Tours. The tour guide Ahmed was great and provided a lot of information throughout the day.
The cemetery is well maintained and very humbling. The museum was interesting and had lots of tanks and such.
The only issue with the tour is that it was probably too long for a day trip from Cairo. My fault for not researching traffic times.
All in all it was a good tour but probably better if you plan an overnight trip.

Do not recommend. Very poor. - The driver was good and did all the work.
Your guide slept most of the day or was on his phone. They didn’t provide water and when we stopped for lunch I had to buy water.
We didn’t stop for lunch until 4pm. To long after leaving at 8am. It was not a good restaurant but a fast food chain.
The guide was not onboard when we were picked up. We had to pick up and drop off the guide all the way down in Giza adding at least an hour and half to our already big day.
There was no sign telling us which vehicle we were to go as it did not have your company logo on it but another company.
Lucky for us I knew exactly what we wanted to look at at El Alamein because your guide didn’t seem interested.
Based on this we were very disappointed and would not recommend or use your company again. Even when I sent the company my comments, no response was received.
