This was our 1st time visiting Egypt from the USA. Our wedding anniversary and what a truly wonderful time we had. Following a recommendation of a trusted fried, we hired… read more an extremely experienced Egyptologist / Guide, Mr. Sameh “Sam” Makram, who is employed by “Egypt Eye Tour” who was also occasionally assisted by his right hand Guide Bisho Sabit. Sam was very easy to communicate with via Whats APP because he is extremely reliable, punctual, considerate of time zones and his English language is better than mine. What a true pleasure to be escorted VIP style by Sam, who has ample knowledge of customs and true love for his land and his people. He did everything for us. He created our tour program, bought the tickets and escorted us around Giza Great Pyramids, Saqqara Pyramid of Djoser, Egypt Museum & every other place we wanted. He was courteous, funny and extremely knowledgeable of history, archeology and paleontology. He answered all of our questions and sometimes drove around a couple of times through areas I really wanted to see. He took photos of us and recommended best restaurants and shops. “Egypt Eye Tour” company is absolutely lucky to have such high quality employees. Between Sam & Bisho, five star treatment, an unforgettable experience, a most beautiful gift to ourselves!!!! Spend the money! So very worth it!!!

My friends and I did a customized tour of Egypt with Egypt Eye Tour and it was amazing. We spent the first two days in Cairo visiting museums and… read more of course the pyramids before flying to Luxor. I must note something very important, we were met by their airport representatives in Cairo, Luxor and Aswan, which made traveling through the airport(s) seamless!! We were handled like VIPs in the airport, no problems at all! In Cairo, our guide "Mo" (Mostafa) showered us with his knowledge as we took various tours with him. We met another guide, "Safi" in Luxor who traveled with us down the Nile. We experienced some minor issues on the ship that Safi went above and beyond to correct. Between Luxor and Aswan we visited several temples in which Abu Simbel was the most magnificent to us. The transportation provided were in clean air condition vans with excellent drivers. It was also enjoyable riding in a felucca on the Nile. There’s too many good points about this trip to mention.
I will say if you are looking to come to Egypt for the first time, Egypt Eye Tour will take care of all your travel needs. Many thanks to everyone at Egypt Eye Tour that made our trip memorable!

Above & Beyond, Simply the BEST! – Truly could not recommend Sameh and Egypt Eye Tours more! We were a large group of 21 women and Sameh took the time to get to know every single one… read more of us and connect so well over just 10 days. With a jam-packed itinerary, everything felt so stress-free and arranged with perfection. He is an incredible tour guide and Egyptologist – very passionate, knowledgeable, and fun!
Some highlights from our itinerary and things I would 110% recommend:
– Riding camels at the Pyramids of Giza
– Exploring a local Nubian village in Aswan
– Temples of Abu Simbel
– Felucca sailing boat
– Karnak Temple
– Hot air balloon ride over Luxor
– Overnight camping in the White Desert
Thank you, Sameh! <3

My 16yo and I just came back from our 7day trip from Cairo to Aswan with Egypt Eye Tour yesterday. I couldn’t wait to write a review for this company.
… read more />
Although we usually don’t go on organized trips (we prefer solo) I wanted to get the best out of our short time in Egypt and booked with Egypt Eye Tour. Sameh was amazing from start to finish. Easy to contact via Mail and WhatsApp before the trip, very swift, flexible and kind in his replies.
He picked us up from the airport late at night and being an (extremely skilled) Egyptologist he gave us the best tour we could ask for of the piramids of Zoser and the ones in Giza. On our last day he brought us to the Egyptian Museum in Caïro, the Khan El Khalili souq and the Coptic Hanging Church. He also took us to local restaurants to try out local cuisine. Our days with him were well organized, informative and fun.
From Luxor to Aswan we went on a Nile Cruise with George as our guide. We saw lots of amazing temples in Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Aswan and Abu Simbel. George is a very skilled guide and always ready to help. He also loves a good joke.
All in all: choosing Egypt Eye Tour for an organized trip through Egypt is a decision you’ll never regret. My son and I highly recommend them! If you want to make the most of your time in Egypt make sure to visit their website and book a tour with them.
Egypt is amazing, not only the sights, but also its people. It’s a great country to explore as a family. And when you’re ready to explore this beautiful country, do it with Egypt Eye Tour.

I wish to thank Sameh, our guide from Egypt Eye Tour, as well as Miriam, for the amazing custom tour they had put together for us 9 girls. The whole… read more day was filled with fun and was extremely informative. The mosque of Ibn Tulun was really beautiful, as was Saint Simon cave church, garbage city, city of the dead and then of course some shopping time at khan el-khalili.
The transport was also really great a/c transport, which was very welcome in the Cairo heat. Would recommend this 5 star experience to every one looking for something different than the usual tourist spots.
