A great guides makes all the difference

I had planed to go by myself to see the pyramids but was advised to go with a guide. Thankfully I did because the guidance gives the experience much deeper meaning. The history of the pyramids is so interesting and puts things into perspective. We had extreamly knowledgable guides, Abdul and Jo. A big thanks to both of them. They seriously are the best. They have my highest recommedations❤️

A must see tour in Cairo

The pyramids are amazing! We went on a camel ride to see the panoramic view and got an amazing photos from it. On the way back we had a delicious shawarma to eat. Abdul and Jo are the best guides we have had and treat us like a queens. We have already booked more trips with them. I can’t recommend them enough ❤️

Mahmoud & Badri are the perfect pair!

Mahmoud was wonderful, knowledgeable, patient and kind. Badri, arranged my tours. I appreciate that both Mahmoud nor Badri pressured me to do anything; that was important to me. I felt safe, comfortable and cared for. I learned a lot with Mahmoud! My tour was private and very relaxed. I was afraid of riding the camel and I didn’t know this until I tried and Mahmoud was very patient with me. 1,000% recommend.

Best experience!!!

What an amazing experience it was. We booked private half day tour to pyramids and sphinx with Sofy Egypt tours and it was the best decision ever. The private pick up arranged was spacious and comfortable. The driver as well as our guide were very friendly and made us feel very comfortable. They were very kind and our guide was so knowledgeable. He ensured we get the best view of pyramids and the sphinx and clicked amazing pictures with perfect angles. I would highly recommend Sofy Egypt tours for their wonderful service. Keep doing the good work u guys.
