Private Tour to Cairo by Plane from Sharm - 1 Day Trip

My wife and I had a wonderful time. An early start, picked up just before 5am but we were actually sitting on the plane to Cairo before 5.45am!!! We had a great guide in Cairo, (Shariff and his driver Ayeman), visited the Egyptian Museum and Shariff's knowledge was exceptional. Then we booked on to a private boat ( cost a little extra ) on the Nile for our trip to our lunch at a riverside restaurant ( buffet lunch was acceptable, no alcoholic drinks ) Then off to the pyramids for a couple of hours which was great then had an hour to kill in Cairo before getting our plane back to Sharm El Shiekh. Had a great day which was to our itinery and would recommend this to anyone, especially the private tour guide, well worth the extra cost.

What a trip good value, excellent tour guide, well worth the extra for a private tour, we had one to one attention and in a busy Museum we learnt such a lot because we could hear our guide who was really knowledgable and picked out really pertinent exibits to show us,all staff at the company were extremely helpful nothing was to much trouble i would definatly recommend them without a doubt particulary Mohamed.

I have just returned from Egypt and had booked two trips with Sharm Excursions, a private tour to Cairo and a private tour to Luxor. I echo other reviews for this company and have no complaints. I have visited Cairo before and was part of a mass tour, this trip I had my parents with us(62years) and felt that a private tour would be better for us. It was amazing we were transported from our hotel privately and on arrival at our destination had our own private driver and guide, on both trips the guides were fantastic, very knowldegable and both spoke perfect english. I took so much more out of ths trip to Cairo and it was all down to Abdul and the way he explained everything.
Mohamed was also fantasdtic and even phoned the morning we left for Cairo at 0620hrs to make sure verything was going to plan.

I would highly recommend this company to anyone and the additional cost for the private tour is well worth it.

Simply - what a brilliant day. From the people transferring us to our great guide Abdul. An early start but you need the time. The Egyptian Museum is facinating - even to someone not so into history. The Pyramids & Sphinx - amazing. Lunch was really good too. The optional trip along the nile not so worth it. The Papyrus shop was good too. I fully recommend this trip. Only bad thing was not enough time in Egyptian Museum - I am unsure even a whole day would be enough. Excellent day. Thanks.

What a fantastic day! We certainly were glad we payed the extra for a private tour. My husband and I and our two daughters (12 & 14) so enjoyed this day. Abdul was our knowledgable guide and we learned so much from him.He has been working as a guide for 12 years but was still very enthusiastic about his subject. He also took some great photos of us at the pyramids! I must mention the driver who also contributed to the day. Always on time and ready to pick us up so there was no waiting around.All went smoothly from the transport from our hotel, the flight and the return journey. This company is professional and provides excellent value for money. We also booked quad biking with them.
Just a few tips, take more money than you think as you will need as you will be tempted at the perfume shop! also we did not realise you have to pay extra to see the royal mummies at Cairo museumn, and we did not have enough on us. At the end of the day we had three hours before our flight and our guide recommeded the light and sound show at the pyramids.He knew we did not have the money on us but agreed to lend us the amount and we could pay back the guide that would collect us for quad biking. This was a great show. I thought it may be tacky, using modern lazers and music to tell the history of the great pyramids, but it was exceptionally well done and very dramatic. Thank you to Abdul for trusting us. This is a highly recommended day out, very tiring but well worth it.

Thank you so much Mohammed, Mahmood and Abdul. We had an amazing trip. thanks for all your help and hard work. Highly recommeded. E x

My boyfriend and I had a private tour to Cairo from sharm on the 22nd of jan 2010 we had the most amazing day!! Our tour guide Abdul was absolutly fantastic was well worth paying the extra for a private tour. The whole day went without a hitch and was treated like royalty all day!!! Abdul made the day extra special for us taking lots of pictures of us it was like having a tour guide and a professional photographer all in one!!! I wouldnt think of booking an excursion with any other company. :-)

I went on this trip on the 1st March 2010. An excellent day with a great guide, Maiya. Everything went according to schedule with a wonderful relaxed day. Well worth the extra cost of the private trip. Thanks for a great day out.
