5.00Absolutely loved our trip to Cairo! We travelled by car (2 of us) from Hurghada to see the Pyramids, Sphinx, Cairo Museum and a papyrus factory. Rafta was very knowledgable and answered all of our questions. Would highly recommend! Already considering returning to do the Luxor visit :)
Amazing private trip to Cairo from Makadi Bay

5.00We had the best day visiting Cairo from Makadi Bay. We started at 2am with our driver Mamdouh and arrived at the museum by 8:30am meeting our tour guide Hamdy. He was very nice and knowledgeable. We then went on to the Felucca ride, which was nice and relaxing. We then went on for food, which was delicious, followed by a trip to the perfume shop. No one was every pushy or aggressive about trying to sell us anything. We then went to the Pyramids and Hamdy was great at taking lots of pictures and we went around viewing the Pyramids from different view points. We finished off our trip with rhe view from the Sphinx. It was a fantastic day and our tour guide Hamdy and Mamdouh were great! Thank you so much for a fab day!
Highly Recommend Private Car Cairo Trip.

5.00Excellent customer service provided by our two drivers and our tour guide, Rafat. Very knowledgeable about monuments and history of Egypt. Excellent service from the 20mins horse ride round the pyramids (can be 45mins). Great picture taken of pyramids and Sphinx. Lunch at a buffet restaurant is provided, which was nice. Got there relatively quickly given the circumstance of the length of journey. Air con in the van makes the journey easier. Regular stops, if required, for toilet breaks or snacks. Lots of activities in the program with sufficient time in each activity. Downside of the activity would be the price, given the program. It would be ideal for tourist to be able to choose what they wish do. Then adjust the price according to the sights you wish to see. Personally, I do not enjoy museums whereas other may. Not ideal if you don’t like long car trips. As the journey was +7 hours. Length of journey is very unpredictable to the traffic and police checkpoints. However air con is provided within the van which is a lifesaver. Also if you wish to make any stops, the drivers are more than happy to comply. Given that it is a car +7 hour journey, the price can be justified. Overall, my only issue was with the program and price of it. However, Rafat is an excellent tour guide and I would recommend this to anyone visiting Egypt, as he made the experience more enjoyable.
1 day Hurgada Cairo - great day

5.00Rafat organised for us a private one day trip Hurgada - Cairo. We have two kids 6 and 10 and were a bit worried about a long bus journey and a long tiring day yet really wanted to see pyramids. We left the hotel at 2am and drove to Cairo in a very comfortable mini van, kids could lie down and sleep comfortably all the way to Cairo. The van was air conditioned and with a TV which proved very handy on the long drive back :) The drive was around 7 hrs but this is due to the long wait at the police checkpoints and cannot be avoided. The day in Cairo was great, we arrived rested and started with the museum tour. Rafat is very knowledgeable guide and gave us just the right amount of knowledge and interesting facts. Because of the fact that it was a private tour we could decide where we wanted to go and in what order, we could skip the places that were not interesting for us. We were back in the hotel before 10pm just in time for late dinner ;) We felt very safe all the time and the whole experience was great. I fully recommend going with Rafat. We felt a bit worried about booking online with an unknown agent but decided for it reading other reviews and we are not disappointed. The trip was safe, and all the details and fees as agreed in advance of the trip, no hidden charges, all honest and transparent. We will definitely go with this agent when in Egypt again :)
Great trip

5.00Due to security controls, the trip to Cairo from Hurghada took 7.5 hours. This is not fault of travel guide. Just something to be aware of. The car and driver Khalid were great; very comfortable drive. The museum was fabulous. Also great to see the Pyramids and Sfinx. Opportunity to go to panorama view of pyramids by camel or horse carriage which I thought was worth it, but make sure to haggle a LOT!!! They start with ridiculous prices. The whole trip was organised very well by Raafat. Thank you!
Amazing tour and adventure I will take with me always

5.00The personal tour was amazing, the guide and staff were all so kind and helpful. Would deffo recommend this tour. The guide also showed me other sites and places not on this tour but was so worth the extra £. And we fitted it all in one day. I would take some food and a drink and a blanket or pillow for the journey to zzz and get collected at 2am so you can enjoy a fill day in Cairo gor Hurgarda. Also don't let ppl take pics or buy anything from the pyramids you have to tip. Take lots of £5 (100 EGP) for tips. I tipped the driver and guide more as they also helped me spk some egyptian so I wasn't haggled as much. Enjoy!!!
Good day experience in Cairo with local guide.

5.00Had an amazing day trip to Cairo and Giza all perfectly arranged by Raafat, who then made contact through WhatsApp, to keep me informed. I was picked up from my hotel in El Gouna at 2.30am by my driver Khalid, who was polite throughout and a careful driver especially on the mad roads of Cairo. Arrived into Cairo around 7.30am to meet my guide for the day, who I have to say was excellent in every way, fluent English and very informative throughout, firstly we went to the Egyptian museum which was amazing but they are currently moving to a new location in Giza so some artifacts were not on view, but fortunately the main ones were. We then moved on to the banks of the Nile for a short boat ride on the River which is very interesting, we then went onto Giza for lunch and the the highlight of the tour was the amazing pyramids which were splendid in every way, so all in all I would strongly recommend the tour in a pvt car the journey is long but very comfortable, so thank you Raafat, Khalid and of course Hanna for her amazing knowledge
Amazing experience with tour guide Rafat in Hurghada

5.00Absolutely amazing one day group experience travelling to Luxor and private tour to Cairo. Both days we were lucky to have Rafat as our tour guide. He has a wealth of knowledge and explains everything really well. He is fluent in English and has a great sense of humour. I would definitely recommend booking Rafat for excursions in Hurghada.

5.00Very nice trip, Cairo has a lot to see and it was a big advantage to travel by private car than by buss. The guide Raafat is very hellpull and cared about us all them time, giving explanations about life in Egypt and ancient history. Wish we could have more time to learn more about Cairo with him. 100% recomended experience
