For those who do not know, Egypt is not the easiest place to tour around alone. There is a lot of traffic, you need a lot of patience sometimes and there is a lot of history to know. Egypt Tailor Made took that hastle away from us and made it the easiest, most educational and most fun trip I’ve experienced in a while.
This company took full responsibility in helping me organize a 10 day trip, took care of all transportations, gave us a tour guide the entire time to explain everything about ancient egypt. Both Miss Rania Elhaddad & Mr. Ahmad Aziz did a great job at doing so and I thank them for all the hard work they did.
I would highly recommend this company to anyone who is thinking of going to Egypt and would like a trusted source to accompany them the entire way.

Egypt Tailor Made organised a private 12 day tour for our group of five. We started with 3 days in Cairo with a wonderful guide Heba and driver Ali. They were very punctual, professional, helpful and kind. Heba was very knowledgeable, interesting and fun and gave us as much time as we wanted to see sights such as the Pyramids, the Sphinx, Cairo Museum, Khan El Khalil bazaar etc. Heba also made great recommendations for places to eat and places to buy things like Papyrus or perfume. She has a great sense of humour and is very entertaining we felt so fortunate to have her as our guide. We all highly recommend asking for Heba as your guide in Cairo.
We took the sleeper train from Cairo to Aswan snd found this comfortable enough and enjoyed the experience. It was wonderful to travel along the Nile in the early morning from Luxor to Aswan.
We were met at Aswan by our next wonderful guide Salah and driver Mahmoud. We drove from Aswan to Abu Simbel which is 3 to 3.5 hours and visited Abu Simbel temple in the afternoon when it was almost deserted. The tour groups all arrive in the morning from Aswan and leave in the early afternoon. The road is only open in daylight hours and the checkpoint closes at 4pm after which you must stay in Abu Simbel. It was so special to visit the temple without crowds. I highly recommend a one night stop in Abu Simbel. We also returned that evening for the Sound and Light show.
The next morning we returned to Aswan and visited the High dam, the Temple of Philae and sailed in a felucca then checked into our Nile cruise on Steigenberger Minerva (seperate review).
Salah our guide met us each day on our cruise taking us to the temples of Kom Ombo, Edfu, Karnak, Luxor, and the Valley of the Kings Etc. Salah was another fantastic tour guide. He was knowledgeable, informative and patient. Because there was a heatwave and the temperature reached 42 degrees in the afternoons, Salah agreed to start the day earlier and give us information about the sites we were seeing in the shade where possible and aim to finish our sightseeing before the heat was too intense, which we were very happy about.
ETM organised a driver and private vehicle to take us to Hurghada for a couple of days in a resort before flying back to Cairo for a final night.
Our experience with Egypt Tailor Made was exceptional and both Heba and Salah were outstanding guides they also took many photos of our group and knew good spots for getting great shots. If you have the chance request Heba in Cairo and Salah in Aswan, Abu Simbel and Luxor.

Sabry is a top Egyptologist! He has detailed expertise from pre- first dynasty to present day. Sabry created highly personalized tours at each site over 3 days, and even took me to one of the world’s 100 most iconic restaurants! Highly recommended for his extensive knowledge, friendly personality, and photography skills. MUST REQUEST!

My husband and I spend an incredible day with a calm, friendly and very knowledgeable female guide: Hend (also non-smoking which was a plus for us). We visited not three but the eight pyramids we wanted to see all in one day in three different sites.
Hend picked us up from the hotel with the excellent driver in an airco car and we spend the next 7 hours slowly making our way through all the sites. If we wanted to go in the pyramids we would go in, she would be waiting. The car was always there for us and we are grateful because it was really hot. We like history and context and Hend knows a LOT!. She also answered all our questions on daily Egyptian life and food and had all the suggestions for the best pictures. She got us the best falafel we ate in the whole trip from a miniscule place along the road. We are very very grateful for the amazing day.
Then the next day we also did Islamic Cairo with her. Same professionalism and knowledge. We had many guides during our 2,5 weeks trip in Egypt and hands down Hend was the best.
Highly recommend this company which provides excellent value for money.

Did you always dream of visiting Egypt but worried about the language barrier, cultural difference, and traffic chaos? I cannot stress what a wonderful vacation we had that was amplified by the right private tour guide! My family of 4 with two tween kids trusted the Egypt Tailor Made team as everyone was fun, intelligent, courteous, and professional. Our trip throughout Egypt was made possible only with this professional team. Other than the initial meet and assistance service we used through our hotel, we ended up hiring Egypt Tailor Made for all of private excursions including all other airport transfers. Their vans were super clean and air conditioned with zero problems and even an ice cooler with water bottles. The drivers are all cool, calm, and very skilled in navigating around Egypt!
In Cairo, we were paired with Heba who is a highly knowledgeable Egyptologist taking us to all the important tourist attractions including a second full day trip to Dahsur, Memphis, and Saqqara. My husband and I felt like we were following a professor around absorbing all the history lessons she shared with us. The aromatherapy shop and papyrus museum weren’t on my list, but we were so delighted she took us there for some great souvenirs.
In Aswan and Luxor, we were paired with Ghaddad, an equally knowledgeable Egyptologist, and the skillful driver, Ahmed. For 3 days, they were so patient with us accommodating our many requests and tiring tweens. They even included fresh sugar cane and mango juices as well as fresh made falafel as well as little souvenirs. Ghaddad took us shopping for pottery and Egyptian spices which made even more memorable souvenirs, and she expertly kept all unwanted solicitors away.
We flew down to Abu Simbel for one morning where we were greeted by our private tour there as well.
It’s so relieving to work with a touring team that is so expansive throughout Egypt. I’ve read so many other tourists’ reviews of Egypt who were lost, scammed or disappointed, but they should have hired Egypt Tailor Made for the best customized experiences. I did much research before reserving my bucket list destination, and this team beats them all. Don’t bother using the hotel’s concierge which are far more costly for similar private tours. Go with Egypt Tailor Made!

We found this tour after a thorough search of available tours around Giza that includes tour around Memphis and Saqqara. Glad we chose this tour as this tour is probably the best thing we had since arrival in Cairo.
The tour provider sent us Ms Heba as our tour guide. She is extremely knowledgeable and her way of telling us the background stories is engaging. She also took photos of us from amazing angles. The food that we were provided were also the best food we had since our arrival in Cairo.
During the trip, we got into a little conflict with our hotel as we accidentally brought our hotel keys. Ms Heba took the initiative to return our keys to the hotel as we are looking at the papyrus store. We are reaaaaaally grateful for her initiative.
Overall, we really enjoyed our tour. Kudos to Ms. Heba! 10/10 would recommend this trip and tour provider to everyone!
