Things to do in Cairo Governorate

I had the best experience! There were many types of cruise ships, but I'm glad I chose the Pharaohs Night Cruise, which was full of Egyptian charm. The buffet offered dishes I can't find in Japan, and the dance and musical performances got everyone in the venue excited. Muhammad, who helped with the transfer, was calm and very kind, which put me at ease. If you go to Cairo, you should definitely try it.

We really enjoyed the beautiful views and the fantastic performers on our Nile dinner cruise, and while the food might not be for everyone, it was still enjoyable. A huge thank you to our reliable driver for the smooth and safe hotel pickup and drop-off!

To all Koreans! We had a very safe and fun trip! The guides were very kind! I was nervous about the unfamiliar environment in Egypt, but the entire schedule was comfortable! Lunch, dinner, and breakfast are provided, and even though I didn't shower before bed, it wasn't too uncomfortable, probably because it was dry! The desert was great, sandboarding was great, and seeing the stars made for a peaceful 2-day, 1-night trip! It was my first time in the desert, and it was so much fun and wonderful! I didn't bring a swimsuit because I thought the water might be dirty, but it would have been better to just bring extra clothes and go in once. Preparations: lots of water, snacks like crackers or jelly, motion sickness medicine for those who get motion sickness, and a swimsuit.

This trip was truly excellent value and offered a fantastic experience. First, a van picked up all the tour members from various hotels. We were a small group of seven, all around the same age, which was great, and coincidentally, all of us were Asian. I recommend packing two bags the night before: one for desert clothes and one suitcase. Upon arrival at the lunch spot, you can check your suitcase (to be picked up at the end of the tour). The lunch spot felt a bit like a local's home, serving very authentic Egyptian cuisine, and the lunch was delicious. After lunch, we switched to 4WD vehicles, with four people per car. The first stop was the Black Desert, where we experienced the grandeur of nature. I suggest wearing closed-toe shoes and gloves for climbing rocks, as you'll need to use your hands. The two drivers were excellent; they gave us a thrilling safari experience, speeding across the desert. Since it was only for a few dozen meters, it was exciting yet safe (of course, if you showed excitement, they would continue to accelerate). Our grilled chicken dinner that evening was delicious. I'm not sure how they managed to conjure up fruit, chicken, and rice from limited ingredients, but everything tasted wonderful. During dinner, we even had a special visitor: a cute little fox that came for leftover chicken bones and water, though it was very shy around people. Our guide had a great understanding of the landscape, moonlight, and photography, and took many beautiful photos for us. The sandboarding on the second day was also a lot of fun. There was no limit to how many times you could go, until you felt too tired to carry the board back up the slope to the starting point. Overall, this tour is a must-do when visiting Egypt, and I highly recommend this particular company (although I'm not sure if you can request a specific guide, my guide was named Mohammed – even though I met many Mohammeds during my two-day visit). Travel tips: Bring wet wipes (as a substitute for showering), closed-toe shoes, sandals, and gloves (for climbing). (One bottle of water will be provided at lunch and dinner.)

I had an amazing experience with Ramadan, he was our spanish speaker guide, I cannot imagine my trip without his guidance, we felt safe, had amazing views, food and photos. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The trip was really enjoyable and the tour guide was very enthusiastic. The sight of the Sphinx standing majestically guarding the gate, with the three large pyramids prominently displayed against the golden sand and clear blue sky, created a magnificent picture, both solitary and awe-inspiring.

We had an amazing experience on our Giza Pyramids tour with Klook! ✨ A huge thank you to our tour guide EZ, who was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire history come alive in such an engaging way. You can really feel the passion and care in every explanation—he made the visit extra special for us. Also, special appreciation to our driver Shiref for the smooth, safe, and comfortable ride throughout the trip. Navigating through Cairo can be challenging, but he made everything feel easy and stress-free. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the pyramids—definitely a memorable and worthwhile experience! 🇪🇬🐪

The driver and tour guide we encountered on our day trip to Alexandria were both excellent. The driver was very patient and waited for us at the hotel in the morning. He also proactively pointed out rest stops and convenience stores along the way where we could rest and buy water. He was always smiling and had a great attitude. The tour guide, Mig, spoke very fluent English, had a wealth of professional knowledge, and provided very professional explanations. He was able to answer questions well. Overall, it was a great experience, and I highly recommend it!

⭐ Highly Satisfied with the Cairo One-Day Sightseeing Tour! This tour was incredibly satisfying, allowing us to efficiently visit Cairo's main attractions in one day, including the Pyramids, the Grand Egyptian Museum, and Khan el-Khalili Market. 👩‍🏫 Our Guide, Mariam, Was Wonderful! Our female guide, Mariam, spoke excellent Japanese. She was very knowledgeable, provided thorough explanations, and flexibly accommodated our requests without any hesitation. Beyond just explaining the sights, I was delighted that we could chat casually about topics not directly related to tourism, such as Egyptian culture and daily life. Her attention to detail made us feel secure and allowed us to enjoy the sightseeing experience. 🏛️ Day's Itinerary The tour began with a hotel pickup at 8:00 AM, following this sequence: Pyramids → Sphinx → Two souvenir shops → Grand Egyptian Museum (lunch and visit) → Khan el-Khalili Market → Hotel drop-off. I personally requested and paid extra to enter the interior of the Pyramid. 🛍️ Regarding the Souvenir Shops Honestly, if the two souvenir shop visits had been omitted and that time added to the Grand Egyptian Museum, it might have been even better. However, at both shops, we were able to hear product explanations in Japanese, and there was no pressure to buy anything. There was no aggressive sales pitch, and we learned things we wouldn't normally hear, so I think it was a good experience overall. 🛒 Shopping at Khan el-Khalili Market Since I found bargaining tedious, I asked Mariam if there were any shops with price tags, and she directed us to suitable ones. While we shopped, Mariam casually waited inside the store, and we never felt rushed or worried about keeping her waiting. It was great to shop at our own pace. 📸 Other Notes Tips were not required, and photos were taken for us free of charge. *Please note that admission fees for the Pyramids, Sphinx, the interior of the Pyramid, the Grand Egyptian Museum, and lunch are separate and not included. 👍 Overall Review Mariam's personality and attentiveness were particularly outstanding, making our sightseeing experience in Japanese enjoyable and worry-free. This highly recommended tour is very flexible in accommodating your requests!
