This was a dream come true experience for us and Amr made sure it felt like it. His knowledge of Egyptian history really made a difference in our time in Alexandria and the passion he had to ensure we could see everything and understand it better. I don’t think we could’ve had a better guide! Besides that, our driver, Ahmet was extremely kind and welcoming and I felt like we got a 5-star treatment. Thanks for making this a special end to our time in Egypt and I hope that many people get to live this experience as well!

We had a luxury translado in a very new van type van, the driver was very accommodating. My family does not speak English and Azmy has been very accessible to us and I got Mohammed a guide in Spanish who was excellent and fun to tell us the story of Alexandria.
I would definitely hire the tour again with Azmy, thank you!

Exploring Cairo with Azmy was a delightful experience. His extensive knowledge
of Pharaonic Egypt and his abundant contacts with local officials and workers made for a seamless travel experience. Not only was he informative, but his fluency in English was impeccable, ensuring clear and engaging communication throughout. Azmy's passion for ancient Egypt is contagious, and his professionalism is unmatched. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a comprehensive and enjoyable tour of Cairo.

I am not sure how to put into a small paragraph how wonderful our experience with Azmy was. We booked our trip very last minute and he was incredibly accommodating. From pick up to drop off. He is experienced Egyptologist. Great information. The tour went at a great pace in terms of timing. It didn’t feel rushed. My friend and I enjoyed his positive, fun energy as well. I definitely recommend.
