The BEST Things to Do in Cairo - Top Activities in 2024

The tour was pretty well planned, so we got to see the most historic attractions in Egypt while not feeling rushed. Nice Tours took care of booking hotels, flights, museum tickets, etc., so we didn't have to stress too much about planning. Marina was in touch with us throughout the duration of the trip, and she was quick to respond to our concerns and solve them. There were a few hiccups- we couldn't visit the Library of Alexandria because it was closed on Fridays, we ended up going in an ordinary boat instead of the Felucca in Luxor that was earlier communicated, some of the restaurants we went to didn't have adequate vegetarian options. But the guides were pretty knowledgeable, were able to communicate well in English, and helped us avoid some of the scams that occasionally happen in Egypt. Our tour group had people from various continents, and everyone had a really positive experience. The Nile cruise especially was really good and relaxing too. Definitely recommend this trip.

Menna & Ahmed are the dream team 😎 absolutely loved our tour and would reccomend to anyone! Menna was a fantastic tour guide and was very knowledgable in the history of the pyramids and sphinx. She is also very kind and patient and took us to a lovely restaurant for lunch with pyramid views. She even asked us what we wanted so she could order our food ahead of time so our wait was very minimal. Ahmed was a fantastic driver who always kept the car cool and made sure we didn’t have to walk much between stops by always being super close by! He also made extra extra effort to make sure he drove carefully over bumpy terrain as I’m pregnant, which added to the comfort. Highly reccomend Menna and Ahmed for your tour! Thank you to both for a wonderful day.

Great. Honestly for the price it was really great. The guide was very friendly, we had a good laugh, very interesting. Taken care of from A to Z. I didn't expect this quality for this price. I recommend 1000 times.

Nice activity! The driver was waiting for me on time at my hotel, he was very kind. I felt safe in this experience, even though I was alone

Hagar is the best guide you could ask for, very loving, funny, knows too much and also takes you to special places.
