- V6500RMfedericor0 contributionsYou won't be disappointed!We organized through Farouk 2 days in Cairo. Everything was professionally organised, nothing was missing during our trip! They give you lots of options during these 2 days where you can choose at the time what to see, depending on your interests and feels. All tour guides where friendly and professional, with clear explanations of everything around you. I highly recommend them!Written September 13, 2024
- daviniau20140 contributions2 days in Cairo with kidsIt was a great experience, they were very professional. The van was spacious and comfy. They had a lot of info and curious stories about ancient Egypt and the whole history and culture. They adapted to our needs and taste. Our kid is celiac and they did their best to find a safe place for her. Thanks for everything!! We would definitely recommend to do your trip with themWritten August 4, 2024
- 450marekp0 contributionsThe best King ever!We travel a lot but the tour King Farouk organised for us is the best one we have ever had. Everything was perfectly arranged but when there was a need to adjust the tour to our needs ( e.g. going to a pharmacy) King Farouk reacted immedietally goinig to many places to finnally get the medicine we needed. Not only is he a knowledgeable person but he can tell the stories in such an interesting way that even our son listened to him with astonishment. As a person he is a well- mannered, friendly man, who gets on well with everyone we met during our trip. Evey person we met seemed to like him. Although he is the King, we were treated as a royal family. We were invited to ice-cream and to a traditional Egyptian restaurant. Koshary dish and rice pudding are our favourites now! During our trip he was taking photos of all members of our family and sent us dozens of professional photos and a video which will be a real memento of this tour. We were promised that next time when we get to Cairo he will show us the secret places of Cairo, which we can't wait. Thank you King Farouk, we wish you all the best. See you next time!Written August 2, 2024

- KABigBlue0 contributionsBest tour guide EVER! This is who to partner with.We researched tour guides for our quick visit to Cairo. Every review for King Farouk convinced us to select him and boy were we glad we did. His communication to get our visit scheduled was excellent. Farouk told us thru WhatsApp exactly where to go and do to get thru the airport. He met us outside with his driver Mahmood. Farouk knows the area very well. What we learned is that he started out as a tour guide at the local museum. He also speaks very good English. We were dropped at the Marriott by the pyramids and we were to be leaving early the next morning. It was like we had known this man for years....so kind. He took us to the pyramids and sat us down to give a history lesson. Every other guide we passed by knew him and many times they would say "you've got the best guide out here". Our day was planned out. We went in the great pyramid and climbed to the top to where the sarcophagus used to reside. He was waiting for us when we came back out sweating and had water for us. He also is friends with the local feral dogs and feeds them. He then took us to the Sphinx, to an essential oils shop (won't do that if we ever go back), local jeweler, a wonderful tour of the museum where he used to guide and ended with a quick sail boat ride on the Nile. We bought him lunch and that is where we really bonded. Please, this is the man you need to hire, you will not be disappointed.Written March 24, 2024
- josephinh2290 contributionsGreat Tour GuideMohamed is an excellent tour guide! We enjoyed our tour of the pyramids and sphinx including transfers to and from the hotel and airport. Mohamed shared very interesting information about ancient Egypt as well as contemporary Cairo. Definitely recommend!Written March 18, 2024
- AZ8675309-10 contributionsA trustworthy guide for EgyptWe were a group of 3 Americans and we spend two days with Farouk. He arranged quality transportation, guided us to each of the sites we wanted to see (and gave us opinions on what ones to skip and others to include based on our interests), plus he was the best photographer and local food finder! So glad Farouk was recommended to us by our Air BnB host, he was knowledgeable, fun, and made us feel safe and welcome.Written February 21, 2024
- shivar7240 contributionsAmazing Exprience, thanks to Farooq.What an amazing trip, thanks to Farooq. He made sure our group had the best possible experience, and took care of all our requests. Though the itinerary was agreed upon a few months before, he was willing to make small changes, and add/alter a few items depending on our request after ground on the boots. Highly recommend him. My family had a few requests before embarking on the tour and he helped us gladly.Written January 23, 2024
- Thomas Charles L0 contributionsGreat Guide and a Great ManTo make the long story short Farouk is a breath of fresh air! We had a guided tour in the city of Cairo, Giza Pyramids and Luxor to celebrate my fiancée’s birthday. Farouk welcomed us wholeheartedly, his communication regarding pick-up/drop-off, tour explanation and casual conversation was exceptional. He answered all our questions with passion, paid attention to every minor detail, went above and beyond to make sure my fiancée & I had a time of our life. We visited local restaurants and unique facilities regarding Egyptian culture. Farouk made us feel like he was a long time friend who happened to be a tour guide. Speaking from my heart, he is truly the best!Written January 16, 2024
- rajshankar50 contributionsVisit Egypt and Jordan with the King/FaroukWe went on a December vacation as a group of 40 close friends, to Cairo, Luxor, Amman and Wadi Rum, organized by King Farouk. It was an amazing trip, planned and organized brilliantly by Farouk and his team, that went flawlessly without a hitch. Farouk ensured that we saw not only the tourist attractions, but also went above and beyond in including local highlights such as lunch at Abou Tarek, lunch on a Nile river yacht etc., which made the trip even more wonderful. He provides a complete all-inclusive service (food, hotels, flights, attractions), with a cheerful and uplifting demeanor, which is wonderful! We had an issue with one of our bags incorrectly flown to another country due to fault of the airline, which Farouk personally intervened and ensured that the bag was returned to us quickly. That is an example of impeccable service and the attitude of going above and beyond...Our time in Egypt and Jordan was made memorable by King Farouk, highly recommend his services!Written January 7, 2024
- Eltonyio0 contributionsFamily tour of CairoFarouk and his guide and drivers (Nasser, Mustafa and Tamer) were great. Very professional and reliable with clear communication. Strongly recommend getting a guide for Cairo as it's a chaotic city. Really enjoyed visit to pyramids, Saqqara, Coptic Cairo, Egyptian museum, Nile tour, market and the citadel.Written January 5, 2024
- karthiks20240 contributionsEgypt and Jordan is must see, thanks to King FaroukWe had the best vacation to Egypt and Jordan, thanks to the wonderful family and friends, a large group of almost 40. King Farouk made sure he paid attention to all the details of food, personal preference and took care of all aspects. He is one of the best tour guides and I highly recommend him for this trip to Egypt and Jordan.Written January 4, 2024
- Connector5169080 contributionsBest in the business!!!Went with a group of 40 to Amman and Cairo in Dec 2023. We worked with Farouk for over 5 months planning the trip. I have never seen a guide who is so passionate and extremely responsive. We were hesitant to go due to the war in the middle east, but Farouk kept us updated with what was going on in Amman and Egypt. We initially had gone to Amman and then came to Cairo. Farouk, who is settled in Cairo did not have to make the trip to Amman, but he came anyway to ensure that we were taken care of (even though he had a team in Amman to guide us). We did not have one single hitch during the 10 day trip (quite a feat since we were 40 of us). He made sure that every single meal was good (and we had quite a few vegetarians) and that the entire group was happy. He went above and beyond and had a few surprises up his sleeve as well (like lunch on a dahabiya and taking us to authentic Koshari restaurant). He made sure to check with us every day if everything went right and what he can do to make the experience better. The only issue is he has set the bar so high that I am skeptical if our future guides will be able to meet it. Thank you Farouk. You are the BEST!!!Written January 4, 2024
- Meander265488291600 contributionsCOULDNT HAVE BEEN BETTER :)The trip was an unforgettable and memorable experience all because of our wonderful tour guides - Fatima and King Farouk. The passion they have for the country and its rich culture and history is evident in the way their eyes light up when explaining and educating the tourists on a wide variety of topics. They were very flexible and were willing to shift things around for our convenience. Towards the end of the trip, they became family and it’s only because of their hospitality, genuineness, kindness, and enthusiasm! Another plus is that king Farouk is an amazing photographer so you will leave the trip with not only your hearts full but also your camera rolls full!!Written January 2, 2024

We arranged an airport transfer in Cairo with Farouk.
He was very communicative upfront via whatsapp so we were well informed where he would wait for us once we passed the customs.
He even took a small detour to show us the Cairo downtown while informing us about Cairo, Egypt etc. Not only did he suggest great things to do (excursions, restaurants…) but he also provided necessary information (ex: number of the tourism police, things to watch out for as tourist etc.).
We enjoyed the ride very much and even asked to bring us back to airport in a few days (again great service).
Next time we’ll visit Cairo we know who to contact first.

I booked the airport transfer from Cairo International Airport to the Marriott Mena House via Marriott.com local activities site - it was KING FAROUK as the local service provider. It was a good deal (almost 75% cheaper) comparing to what hotel quoted for airport transfer. Very nice guy (FAROUK himself), good English speaking, car is ok (A-Class with air-conditioning), clear and comfortable (never brothered by the scratches on the side - it's Cairo).
He sent me a WhatsApp message prior to my departure to Cairo and another message with his big head shoot immediately after my plane touched down. He even prepared a bottle of water, a boxed juice, and a small pack of cookie for me in the car. We talked a lot on my way to the hotel, and he gave me a lot of advice where to go, how to go and what I should avoid - all very useful. I ended up booking another 2 days of his time when I am in Cairo.
It was a completely hassle-free experience with Farouk - never trust anyone even with very nice suits lobbying you for taxi insider the airport terminal, even they look like airport officials.
