We had an absolute blast on this tri with Ali! The museum was everything I wanted it to be (how can you take a trip to Egypt without seeing some mummies?). And then we went to the Community of Religions to see some amazing churches, synagogues and mosques. Incredible to see them all in the same place. The last stop was to the Old Cairo Bazar and that would have been worth the trip alone!
Again Ali was amazing and we had an awesome time. We were one of two couples out today and it was nice to share the experience with another American couple as well 😁.

Another great day exploring Cairo with Tonsi! Very knowledgeable and guided us through the Khan al Khalili bazaar ensuring we did not get haggled by the vendors! Tonsi ensured we timed out our day to beat traffic and the crowds! Don’t miss the essential oils shop! You can trust Tonsi will take you to all the best spots and you’ll have fun!

This was my first official day seeing Cairo and everything from my tour with my guide Ola(who is an awesome guide and very nice& takes beautiful pictures of you) was amazing. I already knew from the minute I saw the pyramids of Giza, that I would be blown away but everything that I got to do was so fun. Ending the tour with the felucca was my favorite part. If you go and end up choosing emo Egypt tours, ask for Ola because she is an awesome guide who will help you enjoy your vacation even more

We had a wonderful experience with our tour guide and driver. They are amazing people who treated us with the upmost respect. Tonsi took us to the papyrus factory, the perfume factory and of course showed us around the pyramids in Giza and Saqqara as well as showing us the old capital of Egypt Memphis. He helped us take pictures of us and was so fun!! We highly suggest you book with Emo tours as our experience here in Egypt was the best!

Walk thru history in this magical place. I had the opportunity to book this tour with Emo Tours, what a great choice this was. Tour guide full of knowledge about history facts. Emo Tour was the company I booked with and I was very lucky to get Ahmed Tonsi as my guide. He is such a fun and reliable tour guide to assure the experience is the best.

We traveled with our 2 young boys and Tonsi was so kind and fun with our kids! He not only made the tours fun for us, but for our entire family. He always made sure we were comfortable and cared for at every point in our tour. He even switched cars in the middle of the day just so we could have better AC. We expected him to be knowledgeable (which he truly was), but was greatly surprised at how compassionate and kind he was to all of us! We learned so much at every site and never felt rushed or pushed to do anything we didnt want to. I absolutely recommend for anyone visiting Egypt to request him as their tour guide!
