- brightcon10 contributionsGreatest Guide in CairoA wonderful experience with airport greeting and transports but especially our guide, Dalia Amine. An archeologist with a great spirit and sense of humor, we learned a lot and laughed a lot. And she took great photos of my wife and I at the pyramids and Coptic quarters. Thoroughly recommend the agency and ask for Dalia.Written 7 November 2024

- Ana M0 contributionsDahshur & White Desert, the history behind historyAbout 50 de km from Cairo, there is this village called Dahshur, with a history at least as interesting as the one of the pyramids of Giza. One day spent here makes you wanna come back as soon as possible. Kind people, special conditions for the tourists to cool down and relax and such a tasty food. Thank you, Ibrahim, from United Guides Travel, for your professionalism in organizing our two trips, Dahshur & White Desert! Thank you, Hassan and Ahmed, for guiding our steps through these unique experiences! Thank you, Nadir, for making our night in the White Desert memorable and for cooking such a tasty food! 🖤🤍♥️Written 12 August 2024
- Haitham G0 contributionsGreat day in Egypt's countryside.Was an amazing day in Egypt's countryside. Kids loved feeding the animals, riding the donkey and eating the food. Highly recommended.Written 8 August 2024
- Trail272663027210 contributionsThank you United GuidesOur trip to Cairo began with a mix-up with our reservation when we landed, but Ibrahim at United Guides travel promptly corrected it. Not only did he resolve the issue quickly, but he also went above and beyond by providing us with a driver to take us back to the airport. Ibrahim didn't have to do this, but he proved to be a man of his word. The cars provided were in excellent condition, clean, and comfortable, which made our journeys even more enjoyable. I was highly impressed and grateful for his excellent service. I will definitely recommend United Guides Tour car service to others. Thank you, Ibrahim!Written 13 July 2024
- annapH6997ML0 contributionsGreat Day in CairoBig thanks to my tour guide Sayed Mahmoud for showing me the Pyramids and the Egyptian Museum. The views were stunning, and Sayed shared many interesting stories about ancient and contemporary life in Egypt. When I suggested we skip the Bazar to spend more time in the museum, he changed the plan accordingly, always polite and nice. I highly recommend this tour!Written 3 April 2024
- patriciaaF3151LM0 contributionsExcellent tour re content, guide and driver!Fabulous experience of fascinating aspects of Cairo. Hassan was a super guide who was very knowledgeable and taught us so much about this period of Cairo's history as he explained the significance of each place on our tour. He made sure we saw all the key sights and also that we had plenty of time in each, and it was a real pleasure being escorted by him. Taha (our driver) was excellent and we felt completely safe as he navigated the crazy traffic of Cairo; and we were impressed by the new electric car used on our tour. Also we much appreciate the tour operator keeping us informed beforehand regarding guide details and pick-up arrangements. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see more than the standard museums and pyramids while in Cairo.Written 28 March 2024

- dianamG1821SU0 contributionsEslam is the best guide ever!!!We have just completed a 3 day Nile River cruise from Aswan to Luxor with 6 friends and the most AMAZING guide, Eslam! Every trip that we did with him was fun, interactive and his knowledge of Egyptian history was phenomenal! He bought each place to life for us and took us back in time to experience moments of history that will be life long memories for us. We highly recommend Eslam as a guide and know that he will bring your next trip to life for you! Gareth and Diana Moyle - New ZealandWritten 11 September 2023
- 866aislinns0 contributionsGreat tour of the PyramidsThis was an amazing experience. The driver, Mustafa and guide, Hassan, were so friendly and helpful. Great information about the history of Egypt and the Pyramids, tons of wonderful photos, and they helped navigate busy Cairo. We really enjoyed this tour and wish we were staying longer to experience even more!Written 17 August 2023
- jrosebud100 contributionsA truly epic time!Highly recommend this tour, especially if you want to visit the not-as-highly-trafficked Dahshur. I was glad to see all three major pyramid sites, including Giza and Saqqara. My guide was Deen Mosleh and he was so fantastic — very knowledgeable and engaging, pointing out some really neat things I would have missed, especially at Saqqara. He was even my personal photographer at Giza, a bonus I did not expect. I can’t recommend this particular tour enough and you will be very lucky to get Deen as a guide. Everything was efficient, great communication and snacks too. Do be advised that this is a really long day, especially if it’s hot (like it was when I went). It can be tiring but worth it. Deen and our driver were pros and kept me comfortable even as it was really blazing hot outside.Written 4 May 2023
- herroncas0 contributions10 Days in Egypt with assistanceI enjoyed being in a small family group instead of the large impersonal tour bus. The guides and support staff provided for us were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and courteous at all times. UG has a variety of power chairs to help those of us who need it including one to go up and down ancient Egyptian steps.Written 30 January 2023

My husband and I traveled to Egypt in November 2021 with Ahmed Helal. We had an incredible trip thanks to Ahmed! We had a list of the sites we wanted to visit and the things we wanted to do. Ahmed took out feedback and created a custom 10 day trip that covered everything we wanted to see and more!! From the minute we arrived in Cairo to our trip back to the airport, Ahmed was there to make sure we were welcome and comfortable. He arranged for a private driver everywhere we went (a big plus when visiting the popular sites), took care of all our entries into every site and provided in depth and interesting knowledge everywhere we visited. His enthusiasm for Egypt and the culture, ancient and modern, along with a dash of humor made every tour fun and interesting. We saw all the major sites, Pyramids, Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Abu Simbel, Alexandria, Cairo plus so many others we didn’t even know we wanted to see. We were in awe of the scale and the detail of ancient sites! Ahmed arranged all our flights in country, our stay at amazing hotels (definitely splurge for the Old Cataract in Aswan) and a relaxing cruise on the Nile (Mayfare was a great line). He even took us to a local farm (beautiful Jessie Farm) to meet his beautiful family and cook at his house. It was a truly unforgettable experience. We left Egypt with a lifetime of memories and a friend in Ahmed!

I can’t fault the memorable day my wife and I spent with Innis going to the Cairo museums and churches. She imparted so much interesting and well informed knowledge to us and is clearly well educated historically.
Many highlights, e.g. In the civilisations museum she gave us a whistle stop tour through the history of human civilisation progressing through its stages using the exhibits. This was an education in itself and was so well delivered that I was blown away she had been able to do it. A fabulous tour and will always be remembered. Thank you

Very good experience. He worried the day before remembering the outing. He was very punctual. The vehicle is very clean. He took us to all the sites included in the tour. He was very kind, he took photos of us when we asked. It met the duration of the tour. He asked us if we wanted to visit some type of store or restaurant. His Spanish was very good and we were happy with the explanations. Thank you very much Sheriff. It has been a nice experience.
