wonderful place where time has wormed into the past - I have to be honest, I enjoyed the Coptic Cairo and Islamic Cairo excursion much more. It was very interesting. It offers a wonderful view of all of Cairo, where you can take beautiful photos. I highly recommend it.

Knowledgeable guide, great tour.. - This tour was a great experience. Omar from EMO Tours was very helpful in answering all our queries. Our guide, Ms. Salwa, was very knowledgeable and even knew perfect place to enjoy local vegetarian lunch. I forgot my specs in the car. Omar took all efforts to make sure I get my specs back before my flight back home. Recommend EMO tours for Cairo trips.

Exceptional Driver and Tour Experience with Mohammed Bin Shama! - We had a fantastic experience with Mohammed Bin Shama, our driver for the Cairo private guided tour, booked through Viator with Emo Tours. Mohammed was always on time and incredibly efficient, ensuring our day went smoothly from start to finish. His ability to communicate in English was excellent, making it easy for us to engage and ask questions throughout the tour.
He was not only professional but also very caring, offering thoughtful tips and insights about the sites we visited in Islamic and Coptic Cairo. His politeness and professionalism made us feel very comfortable and well taken care of throughout the day.
The tour itself was outstanding, with in-depth knowledge of the history and culture of Cairo. We highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a well-organized, informative, and enjoyable experience in Cairo!

Coptic Cairo and Mosques - Our tour guide Joseph was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Without him we would never have found all the churches and mosques we visited. Thanks to our driver that somehow kept us safe in this crazy traffic. Enjoyed the day

Not only Pyramids and Pharaohs - Thanks to Haysam Said we visited a different Cairo. The synagogue, the suspended church, the Mohamed Ali mosque, the citadel... must-see monuments well presented and explained by our guide, in good Italian. Comfortable and efficient private transport.
Absolutely satisfied. Highly recommended

A good overview of religious Cairo - Our guide Mahmoud was great, very friendly and welcoming and very knowledgeable. He was flexible with the sights happy to show us somethings not on the set program, and adapt as we went. He knew so much about the history of these places and is an egyptologist. He timed things well and we avoided crowds for the most part. We all felt very comfortable. Our driver was also professional and kept us safe on the roads. There were seatbelts in the vehicle which is important to us. We were also not taken to any shops (which we requested) which was great.
The only issue we had was with the communication with Emo tours via WhatsApp. The person who communicated with us was an office staff person not our guide. He/she was really quite rude and unprofessional. We asked several times via WhatsApp where we should meet our guide at the airport and they just would not tell us this (just kept saying check your confirmation- which just said the terminal not where at the terminal), so we had trouble finding him on the day. Happy to recommend the tour, but just caution that if you are having airport pick up or need to deal with Emo tours directly you may have difficulty.
