5.00Write Review This tour was amazing! From the very beginning I was made to feel welcome by my guide Omar and the driver who picked me up on time. They offered me cold bottled water and were very friendly. Once in the car Omar asked me questions about where I was from and my life and we had great conversations about UK football, music and he gave me some very interesting information about where we were heading that day. First we went to the Valley of Whales or Wadi El-Rayan and there I watched a short video and viewed some indoor exhibitions before heading outside to see some really unique fossils. I learnt so much! Next we went to see The Magic Lake then sandboarding which was so much fun but tiring climbing back up the dunes. Next we visited Fayoum waterfall and even enjoyed a boat ride before stopping for lunch. The food was extremely tasty and I really enjoyed my meal! Overall I highly recommend this tour and Omar as a guide! I had the best time!
Amazing tour with amazing guides

5.00We were picked up by our guide Mena and captain Ahmed early in the morning for a very exciting and fun tour for the day. Both Mena and Ahmed were exceptionally hospitable and professional and Mena gave us insights of the Egyptian history en route to Fayoum. We took stops for photos and were shown how in the ancient times there once was an ocean which was great. We also had some amazing lunch at a local restaurant and tried sand boarding. I asked Mena about a souvenir I wanted to buy and he added the shop to our stop on the way back to Cairo which was reasonable and I did not have to look around for it. All in all a must try if you are in Cairo. I also was unwell the night before and requested Mena and captain to take us to a shop before starting the tour which they happily obliged. Very friendly and bubbly duo and I would recommend to all my friends who will travel to Egypt.

5.00“King” Amr was amazing. He was very informative, telling us all about the history of the pyramids and all the landmarks we passed on the drive. He prompted us to take photos at the best spots and even recommended poses for us. The experience was unforgettable and definitely worth it. I got a bit car sick and he let me take as many rests as I needed to. My shoes weren’t the greatest for the hot weather so he got a local to transport me! He is a great tour guide!! Visited a spice shop also and he was helping us navigate the local/tourist prices
