About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 14waleedq0 contributionsExcellent experienceExcellent experience. The guide , Atia, was really knowledgeable and gave a different dimension to the trip to Giza. Well recommendWritten October 10, 2024
- Wendy C0 contributionsFascinating must-see tour of Coptic CairoYet another fascinating day with Zizou from Deluxe Travel. This tour was my third day with Zizou, building on what I had seen and leaned on days 1 and 2. Coptic Cairo is a completely different experience from Islamic Cairo (my day 1) and ancient Egypt (my day 2), though if you look closely, there are element of both woven into the sites and museum pieces in the Coptic zone. Zizou’s broad knowledge of Egyptian history, religion, arts, masonry, etc. brought it to life. The sites are clustered together so you see a lot in a short time. I highly recommend this tour.Written October 9, 2024
- ontopofspaghetti0 contributionsGreat tourMAHMOUD and IHAHB took us to see the pyramids and sphinx. They came on time, were communicative, and were responsive immediately after we made the booking online. The tour itself was great, Mahmoud was very knowledgeable and had good energy.Written October 9, 2024
- Y2889BIchristopherl0 contributionsIf you want an egiptologist tour guide, go with themMahmoud Badr was extremely knowledgeable on the egyptian history. He took his time explaining the backstory of the site we were going to visit on the drive there. It was as if I was getting a lecture from a professor. He simplified things for us and helped us connect the dots so that we can better understand what we were looking at. I would definitely recommend this tour with him.Written October 8, 2024
- emilybH7959WK0 contributionsExcellent tourWe had an excellent tour! Our guide was very friendly and informative. We had ample amount of time at each stop. We would use this company againWritten October 7, 2024
- shanerT6746VG0 contributionsConvenient, and fun.I was not sure what to expect, but I wanted things to be smooth and easy while visiting the pyramids of Giza. This tour was perfect. I got plenty of time to take the sites. Getting to go into the pyramid, while costing extra was still an easy process. The ride from hotel to the pyramids was very convenient and my tour guide Zizou was great. You can tell he's had a lot of experience touring people to the sites and he was very knowledgeable.Written October 6, 2024
- Wendy C0 contributionsSo much more than a pyramids/museum tour with Zizou at Deluxe TravelThis is my second day with Zizou at Deluxe Travel and I continue to be impressed. My pyramids/museum tour was a completely different experience from yesterday’s Islamic Cairo tour, yet just as eye-opening, information-laden, and experience-filled. Zizou’s broad knowledge of Egypt’s many dimensions - today was geometry, religion, ancient languages, stone masonry, street food, and camel racing in the desert - made this an experience rather than a tour. Excellent value for money, safe and clean transport, easy booking and payment, and fantastic customer service. I look forward to my next tour with Zizou and Deluxe Travel.Written October 6, 2024
- Wendy C0 contributionsHigh quality, personalized tour by ZizouExcellent experience as a US woman travelling alone. Zizou was my guide for the Islamic Walking tour. He is a fountain of knowledge on Egyptian history from ancient to modern, literature, music, religion, society and just about any question I could come up with. Zizou adjusted the tour en route according to my interests, providing experiences that would not have been possible on my own or with a group tour. In just 4 hours, we covered historical sites, shopping, traditional music, craftmaking and tea in a tiny cafe. On the basics of Deluxe Travel - quick and easy booking process, great price, excellent transportation services. I have booked Zizou for another 2 tours while in Cairo!Written October 6, 2024
- Mishi0070 contributionsGreat tour of the pyramidsExcellent tour guide - very prompt and knowledgeable thank you MahMoud. We had a great time visiting the pyramids. And the camel rideWritten October 5, 2024
- andyamoy0 contributionsInformative and funAladin is a fun guy with extensive knowledge of ancient Egyptian history. We had a small group with him and it was fantastic.Written October 4, 2024
- Stay3947760 contributionsHighly recommend!I feel we were lucky to get Mohamed Gomaa. Polite, knowledgeable about history and culture. He asked us questions and then customized our experience.Written October 3, 2024
- NEDavis10 contributionsEgyptian Museum Guided TourOur guide, Mohammed Gomma, was knowledgeable and informative. His passion for Egyptian history showed as he guided us from exhibit to exhibit. He took the time to learn about our expectations for this experience and tailored our time at the museum based on that information. We had our 10 year old daughter with us and he did a great job keeping her engaged as well. I would definitely recommend Mohammed if you’re looking to get the most out of your visit to the Egyptian Museum.Written September 30, 2024
- andyamoy0 contributionsMohamed is a great guide.We had a fantastic tour with Mohamed gomaa in early October. He is handsome guy and great care, and he very knowledgeable and funny at the same time.Written September 30, 2024
- F7020WHchristinaf0 contributionsNice tourZizou is a very nice tour guide and very knowledgeable. There were much less tourist in the pyramids we went to and offers great experienceWritten September 29, 2024
- ayusp20240 contributionsAwesome tour, even better guide - highly recommendedThe views were amazing, plus the tours of the temples were great. Our guide, Emad, is a wonderful, wonderful man - who invested tremendous amounts of time, effort and energy to walk us through all the relevant history of each of the temples. I would highly recommend him and this tour to all my family and friends!Written September 23, 2024

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the different pyramids and Sphinx located in Giza.
Our tour guide Galal was extremely knowledgeable of the history and the construction process of each pyramid as it evolved from the early pyramids in Dahshur to the later pyramids in Giza.
On some previous tours we felt that we were on a limited time frame to be spent at each site.
Not the case here for we were never rushed.
Having been an Egyptian Museum professional earlier in his career, Galal added an extra touch of Egyptian history through the different reign of the pharaohs.
We strongly recommend this tour as a must see if you visit Cairo.
We enjoyed our tour guide Galal so much that we signed up the next day for an additional tour with him of several of the most important key Cairo museums .

Great experience. On-time, punctual, friendly, and professional. The driver was safe and the van was in perfect condition with a/c.
A great depth of knowledge and way of explaining the history. They gave the time to explore and see. No rush, no forced visits.
Highly recommended, ask for Galal.

They were early to pick us up, experts on Egyptian history, courteous, bought us water, and gave us a lot of time to do everything we wanted. I could not have asked for more and they definitely exceeded my expectations! If you have never been to these sites, you need to book with them! The only thing I would advise is to make sure you have small bills for gratuity for the locals that assist you at various pyramids and sites -very worth it IMO!

This was our fourth day tour and the only one where the guide was on time and actually early. Emad greeted us in our hotel lobby with great enthusiasm and walked us outside to meet our driver Walid which was the best driver through some rough streets in Memphis. The van was air conditioned and provided cold water. The tour itself was just as good as Emad had tremendous knowledge of not only Memphis but several sites we visited days before. Thanks again Emad and Walid

We were picked up on time by one of the most polite and professional drivers I have met in a well maintained coaster (mini bus). We had amazing day with family and friends starting with the pyramids area & Sphinx where our lovely guide directs us to some nice spots for taking good photos. Then we headed to discover Memphis area and (Meet Rahina) open museum. The kids really enjoyed the interesting stories by the guide on the bus. I fully recommend those guys.

Mohamed and Omar our driver were extremely helpful and friendly. Mohamed organised everything and I cannot fault their attention and understanding of what we required of them as a tour operator.
We had first class service for the whole of our 5 day trip to Egypt. I most definitely highly recommend the team at Deluxe travel and would encourage anyone visiting to use this company and the private tours.
Thank you - Sarah and Annabel
