          Amazing!!!
          We had the most amazing tour with Mo and Haitham. They took care of our every need. The food was incredible but we also got to do some shopping and see how papyrus is made. Our view at lunch was absolutely breathtaking and this has been our favorite day of our trip so far! We can’t recommend Mo enough as a guide!!

          A day of wonderment.
          We spent a very interesting and informative time on this tour. Our tour guide, Sugar Queen, was extremely passionate and knowledgeable concerning Egyptian history. The overview of Egyptian history Honey gave us prior to our visit to the National Museum of Egyptian Civilisation was so valuable to our visit. Honey’s knowledge spread across so many facets of historical Cairo and this was once again evident in the time we spent in the church precinct.

          Delicious food tour plus more
          Enjoyed being taken around the city to try different food and sweets. Enjoyed my felluca ride and tea by the end of the day. We also visited different shops for oils, tea and papyrus. Overall, a great day and full tummy. Thank you!

          Not all advertised sites open
          The library was the primary sight we wanted to see and it was on the advertised itinerary. When we got to the library it was closed. I brought it up to the tour operator and he asked me why it was closed like I am the one who is supposed to know that. I found out later through discussion with locals that it is always closed on Fridays. The operator not knowing the operating hours of the attractions is not good. If he would have told us we would have gone on a different day

          Fantastic experience!
          This tour was incredible, we saw so many ancient sites in just one day, the guide was very knowledgeable and answered many of my questions. The visits at each stop were not rushed and I have plenty of time to take in the impressive monuments. I would very highly recommend.

          Really glad we went…
          A really worthwhile trip to the site of the battle of El Alamein - booked with Egypt Royal Tours. We visited the Commonwealth Cemetery & the Museum. The cemetery was very moving - a reminder of how many people from around the world fought & died in North Africa. Our guide Sara & driver Heitham were friendly & helpful. We stopped for a pleasant lunch & a quick visit to a supermarket on the way back. All in all, a really good day.

          MEMORABLE DAY
          Foi um dia incrível. MEMORÁVEL!! O Osama levou-nos a ver as pirâmides de uma perspectiva diferente do que já tínhamos visto. Durante toda a viagem sentimos-nos como rainhas, sempre prestáveis, educados e muito respeitadores. Fomos a sítios lindíssimos. Para quem quiser ver mais do que as pirâmides de Giza eu aconselho pois foi incrível. Todos os mercados que também fomos as pessoas sempre foram atenciosas. O nosso guia foi o Osama e eu aconselho a toda a gente que queira ter uma experiência alegre e com boa energia. Shukran • It was an incredible day. MEMORABLE!! Osama took us to see the pyramids from a different perspective than we had ever seen before. Throughout the trip we felt like queens, always helpful, polite and very respectful. We went to beautiful places. For anyone who wants to see more than the pyramids of Giza, I recommend it because it was incredible. In all the markets we went to, the people were always attentive. Our guide was Osama and I recommend it to everyone who wants to have a happy experience with good energy. Shukran

          Visiting Tobago for one week
          When we were planning our trip, it was hard to find out what we were looking for before the trip. There were four adults from the US. We flew United from Houston to Trinidad. Landed around 1am and our ferry did not depart until 6am from the port (about a 30-minute taxi ride). We arrived and decided we would just stay at the airport until it was closer to leave. Since we didn't have a hotel there, we would need to find and pay for our transportation to the port. On arrival to airport, we made our way to the outside/inside. We had a few hours, so took out some cash from the ATM Ended up getting 3000TT for the week. Grabbed a subway sub and bottle of water 48TT. Also had to try a corn fritter for 10TT. Before leaving had a Latte 34TT. Around 4am we went to find a taxi from the station, luckily there was one that was early. Apparently, there is a night shift and a day shift. It was 320TT from airport to Port. Went on the GALLEONSP1. was scheduled 6am arriving in Tobago at 10am. We left at 6am but arrived almost at 11am. The staff was absolutely wonderful on the ferry, and they distributed very good quality barf bags. Yes, after 2hrs almost everyone was throwing up in their bags. It was terrible. It was like a roller coaster that you couldn't get off. If you get seasick or motion sick, fly do not take the ferry. Our hotel was Le Grand Courlan Spa Resort (Adults only) set up a taxi to pick us up from the airport for $175TT for four adults. The hotel was in Black Rock on Caribbean side. Our Taxi driver was Orville Mc Pherson 868-683-8502. Orville was very nice. We used him for an Island tour ($1000TT for four 9am-6pm) and the return drive ($125TT) to the airport when we were leaving. We asked the front desk about car rental, and they called Sheppy's Auto Rental 639-1543. We were renting for one night, which I called each morning and extended the rental for the whole week. Rental car costed $241.64 US$ for all week and gas for the week cost $32.83 US$. What did we do all week? Went to Sunday School in Buccoo (They are wonderful), Went to beach at Pigeon Point, Went Diving, Snorkeling, Glass bottom boat, Feeding the Hummingbirds, Waterfall and food. It was a fabulous week. Hotel- Le Grand Courlan Spa Resort (Adults only) good for the price, but they are working on a few repairs. Driver- Orville Mc Pherson 868-683-8502 Rental Car- Sheppy's Auto Rental 639-1543 Hummingbird Feeding- Shurland's Adventure 394-3740 $100TT each Glass Bottom boat from Pigeon Point- Contact Cassim- 768-2204 Boat: Three Try and Captain: Michael. Went to Buccoo Reef, Nylon Pool and No Man's Land $200TT Each Argyle Waterfall- 60TT each Restaurants: Four Adults two Vegetarians Waves- Eat Lunch and Dinner- great meals all the time Blue Water- Lunch Fabulous Jemma's Seaview Kitchen- Lunch delicious and Filling. They feed you family style Il Portic- Dinner (pizza and dessert) Amazing La Tartaruga- Dinner good Blush & Bloom Bistro- Dinner. It was OK. A lot of items on the menu that take a long time to get and get at different times. It was a scratch kitchen. Flew Caribbean Airlines bar to Trinidad then United to Houston. Would I go back? Absolutely. Did I feel threatened at all, no. Everyone was super nice.

          This Food Tour Turns into an Amazing Cultural Immersion
          Excellent experience! After having done several walking tours in Athens and Rome, we were not sure what to expect in terms of Egyptian food, especially with an early pick up at 9:30am. We were greeted by Hala, whose energetic personality could simultaneously charge our cell phones, and driven in an air conditioned van to Giza Protectorate for a taste of Egyptian breakfast. The breakfast spread included shakshuka, eggs scrambled with a tomato sauce, crispy and delicious Egyptian falafel prepared with fava beans, as well as Fava brown beans, babaganoush, warm pita style bread, cucumber and yogurt sauce. Hala explained the cultural traditions around food as well as the basic cooking styles. This brunch was delicious but filling and needed time for digestion, so we were driven to an essential oils and spices vendor with government accreditation and production to ease our minds about quality. We experienced a surprising and welcome essential oils tour that included ancient Egyptian formulas and processes, such as blue lotus oil, white amber, etc. Additionally, some of the oils were blends and perfumes used culturally and therapeutically in Egypt. Following this interesting tour, we visited two additional vendors also accredited by the government: a papyrus and a cotton clothing vendor with their own mills. Both had very good quality items. We did find purchases in all three, which were unexpected but well worth the visit. Finally, we arrived the lunch location at 1:30 pm at a rooftop restaurant with a spectacular view of the Pyramids and Sphinx of Giza. We could not believe our luck in having this central vantage point for our first experience of the one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and Hala loved sharing her pride and joy in her native Giza with us. The lunch included grilled chicken with grilled lamb and meat sausages, okra in tomato sauce, mixed zucchini and squash, warm pita bread, spicy grilled eggplant and a delicious assortment of sweet pastries for dessert. Had we not had to return to the hotel by 3 pm, we could have spent a full day in this tour! Hala could not possibly be more effusive and extroverted if she tried ---making our experience fun and ebullient!

          カイロ郊外のピラミッドツアー(サッカラ、メンフィス、ダハシュール)Pyramids tour outside Cairo (Saqqara, Memphis, Dahshur)
          ドライバー、ガイドの方の対応は非常に丁寧でよいツアーでした。6時間を十分使い細かく案内してくれました。帰る途中で申し込んだツアー会社のマネージャーの方が飛び込みで乗車し、とても楽しい会話で思い出に残るツアーとなりました。 The driver and guide were very polite and it was a good tour. They used the six hours to give us a detailed tour. On the way back, the manager of the tour company we booked with jumped in and we had a very fun conversation, making it a memorable tour.

          We had a first rate tour guide. His name was Emr. The site was beautiful. We enjoyed the hike as well as visiting the oasis and the waterfalls. Even got a chance to try a little sand surfing.

          Informative tour with historical focus
          We had a very nice tour of the National museum of Egyptian Civilization and Coptic Cairo. Our guide, Sugarqueen, was very kind and informative. She was happy to answer questions and adapt the tour to our interests. The museum was well curated to get a good overview of the history of the area, as well as see the preserved mummies. The Coptic area also shows an interesting perspective. The tour guide and driver were both excellent. A good overview for a single day.

          The guide was great and very knowledgeable about Ancient Egypt. I got to ride a camel past the Pryamids and I took a lot of photos. I would recommend this tour to everyone.

          Great way to learn while eating your way through Giza
          Outstanding tour with Mo (guide) and Hisam (driver). Mo is an Egyptologist and brought a depth of knowledge to the tour. Hisam was a master in navigating Giza traffic. The food stops were excellent, culminating in a lunch with a direct view of the Sphinx and pyramids. Highly recommended.

        We spent 2 amazing days with Sugar Queen Hala! She really enriched our stay. Her vibrant energy and bubbly personality all helped make the experience fun while being informational.
        She started out our first day before going to Giza with a history lesson where she made sure that we understood the basics so that we could really appreciate what we were about to experience that day. This really helped to make us appreciate what we were about to see. She was with us every step of the way to make sure that there were no language/cultural barriers. She helped to make us feel comfortable as we knew she was there if we needed anything.
        The day in Memphis, Saqqara, and Giza was amazing! Loved it!!
        Our second day in Coptic Cairo/Citadel was a nice way to see the other parts of Cairo and appreciate their history. We also went to the Civilization museum in the morning. This museum housed all of the mummies that we talked about the day before. The restaurants that we went to were excellent. There was a lot of food with great quality.
        If you are looking for a tour guide that is fun, energetic, informed, and will take great care of you... the Sugar Queen is the way to go!

        We had such an amazing couple of days with our guide Hala. She is very nice and dynamic, offers many options, speak really good English and listen to customers needs. We got to learn so many things thanks to her explanation about all the sites we were able to visit and we discovered lots of Egyptian culture. I will definitely travel with Hala again and I recommend her to anybody who want to visit Cairo safely and funny

        Amazing Tour guide!!! Thank you Sugar queen, showing us around so many locations also giving us great time. Full of enthusiasm and very engaging, we learned so much from her. We had two amazing days with her and she packing in so many locations and took us to even better places than we had planned to go to which really helped us avoid huge tour groups and over crowding.

        I got the same page as I had at the pyramids. he was good at telling about the mosques to
        Saladin the Moskenes and the location was incredibly nice and the guide could tell a lot about. afterwards he showed me two churches which, in my opinion, were nowhere near as impressive as Moskenes. we visited the large museum the national museum of egyptian civilization). lots of great things to see here.

        Hala (aka Suga Mama) is AMAZING! She will put together a package for anything you want, so she’s great for solo travelers or families. She’s super knowledgeable about Egypt and you get an authentic experience. The first time I toured with her was in a few years ago and now that I live in Egypt, I now use her when I have visitors! She makes you feel right at home and if you are looking to experience things more like a local (trying different street foods, etc), then take one of her tours!

        Muhammad Raki is the best guide I have ever known, extremely passionate and immense knowledge of history. Along with him I learned so much about ancient Egyptian culture and contemporary Arab culture. He is a cheerful, extremely sociable man, and the time spent with him is of the best quality. In the end, besides unforgettable moments, you will establish a friendship for life ... like me

        This package is for anyone looking to explore and experience the best of Cairo and Luxor. The entire team was professional and accommodating. When the tour was booked, Egypt Royal Tours contacted us immediately to arrange everything for our arrival. They provided transportation to and from the airport and to all the sites. All the tickets were readily available, which made accessing all the historical areas quick and easy. Our tour guides had extensive knowledge of key historical events for each location. In addition, we had a chance to engage with local vendors and bazaars, learned how to make papyrus, and sampled exotic Egyptian oils. If you have a place to visit Egypt and the Pyramids are your goal, this is the package for you.
