    Mimo’s tour was awesome - efficient, knowledgeable, and informative. Great pyramid stops/views and a good walk through the Cairo market (plus always volunteered to take our pic so you never had to ask!). Yasin was our driver with a very clean, and spacious van. Recommend to anyone doing a tour in Cairo!

    We loved our tours with Mimo and our driver Amr. Saturday night we went to the Cairo Tower and Mimo told us about all of the buildings we were seeing. After the tower, we went on a peaceful Faluca ride on the Nile. On Sunday, we first went to see the Pyramids and Sphinx and Mimo took some amazing photographs for us. He found the perfect spot to make it look like we were kissing the sphynx. However, my favorite part of the morning was the Camel ride. Mimo set us up with a really great handler. After the pyramids, Mimo took us to three different fabulous stores where we were able to by some oils, papyrus and souvenirs. The afternoon continued after lunch with a trip to the Egyptian Museum. Mimo took us directly to the main exhibits and told us about the history of each item. He was very knowledgeable. Finally we did a tour of the Bazaar. Overall, it was a fantastic day. The pace was perfect. Our driver Amr was very good and right on time to pick us up every time. His car was super clean, we always had cold water and the AC was fantastic as it was 94° by the end of the tour. I would recommend this experience to everyone.

    This is an excellent tour to take on a medium-length layover. We saw the pyramids and sphinx, the Egyptian Museum, and visited two places that sold goods. I personally would have liked even more time at some of the historical places and didn't really feel the need to buy anything but Rania (my tour guide) and our driver were so kind and informative. I appreciated all their information. One thing to know is that I was dropped back at the airport several hours before my next flight, as that's when the tour ended, but I wasn't allowed to check in until exactly 3 hours before the flight so just be prepared for that. (This has nothing to do with the quality of the tour; it's just the policy of the Cairo airport.)

    Fantastic guide , so knowledgeable, changed the tour for us as we had previously visited the Egytian Museum in Cairo. We went to Saqqara instead. Lovely lunch , Egytian food. Also visited a Papyrus shop and a perfume shop. Thank you Youssef for a great tour.

    I had an 18 hour layover in Cairo on my way to South Africa. I booked this tour and it was the BEST! My tour guide, Mahmoud Hoka, was the BEST! He made sure to take many photos from all angles, took me to the best spots, kept me safe, and took care of my belongings. He knows his history like the back of his hand, and is so passionate and excited to tell you about it. He’s the best!!!!!!

    Mimo and Peter provided a truly fun filled and educational day and far exceeded our expectations. We were a party of 3 including our 8 year old son. We really appreciated how accommodative and easy going Mimo and Peter were throughout our the day long tour which was amply balanced with a variety of stops in Giza and Cairo. We felt that we learned and fully enjoyed quite a bit all in one day. If are looking for a private tour at your pace that showcases the best of Giza and Cairo look no further. Highly recommend Mimo and Peter!!

    I could hardly imagine I was actually looking at the Pyramids and the Sphinx with my own eyes. Our guide Zenab had everything well planned out and even helped organise a last minute felucca ride. The only blemish on an otherwise good day was the camel ride near the pyramids. This is not the fault of the tour company, but unfortunately the boy leading our camels seemed pretty disinterested in what he was doing which was a big contrast to the camel guides leading other groups who were going out of their way to make the experience fun. Hopefully the tour company can consider working with a different guide moving forward.

    This is a pretty full day taking in all the highlights that Cairo has to offer. Karam brought a wealth of knowledge insights and great stories to bring the tour alive… he has a great way providing social context and colourful tales that help you understand modern day egypt as a whole and how and why things are they way they are. Learned a LOT. Logistically Karam was great to accommodate my somewhat last minute communications, which took the stress off me to enjoy the day! Mohammad was our driver, getting us safely from site to site in the crazy Egyptian traffic! (Seriously leave the driving to the pros here!) Fully enjoyed this tour and highly recommend.

    It was a worthwhile tour giving you the chance to experience some of Egypt’s highlights. Our guide, Mahmoud Hoka, was amazing. He was informative and kept the tour interesting. My sister and I never felt rushed nor lost. He was kind to share what and where to buy proper souvenirs, answer your questions, and even take your ig-worthy photos.

    We had a fantastic time and our guide Mahmoud Hoka was exceptional. My sister and myself had enough time to spend at the sights. The vehicle was comfortable. The guide took his time to explain the history of each sight and their meanings. He was also very patient and allowed us enough time for pictures. Definitely would recommend this tour. The lunch that was served was fresh and delicious.
