10/10 highly recommended
Chelsea M, 12/30/22
We absolutely loved having Dalia as our private guide for four days in Cairo. She has a wealth of knowledge and made our time in Cairo truly enjoyable.
Highly Recommended!
Suzana Humcevic, 12/10/22
I cannot recommend Mohamed Kafafy as a tour guide enough. Very knowledgeable about the history of Egypt. Catered to all our needs and even went beyond to ensure we had the best experience.
My son and I in Cairo
B Hart, 11/28/22
Had such an incredible, moment for life experience in Cairo. My son & I couldn’t have asked for a better company. We were treated with the utmost respect and kindness. We were given so much knowledge on the sites, textbook can’t compare.
Egypt is an amazing country
Cassie, 10/14/22
We were 30 people and traveled as a group to Egypt for 4 days in October 2022. We did not know what to expect. We were overwhelmed by the hospitality, friendship, and care by our new Egyptian friends.
Very friendly agency
Camille Anderson, 9/16/22
Our tour guide Ahmed Yassin and our driver Wahid made sure we had a great time here in Cairo. We felt safe and Yassin took us to the best locations.
“14th to 18th November in Egypt.”
gayatri, 12/12/13
Myself and my wife visited Egypt between 14th and 18th of November, 2014.
Memphis Tours Egypt conducted our Pyramid tour for a day. They deployed a very good vehicle with driver, an expert guide and a manager. It was really superb. We went all around. The guide was very well informed. Had lunch (part of the package booked through the net) in a hotel with open air arrangements. We did not find any problem anywhere. We were lucky to get a lot more attention as tourist inflow is less due to media hype that things were not good. We felt this was the right time to go. We took some photographs with the excellent staff of the tourist agency. Will send them now. The guide took us to a school where they teach weaving of carpets etc. This was worth seeing. At the end of the day, they had become of our friends.
We did pay a small tip to the driver. It is common in Cairo, we found.

“Well Organised Tour - Beautiful Egypt”
Ani Nair, 12/12/13
We travelled to Egypt in May 2013 and booked that leg of our trip through Memphis Tours. The tours were well organised and our guides very helpful. Egypt is beautiful and we stayed at the Mena House hotel in Cairo which is stunning, right opposite the Pyramids of Giza. The tours were well worth the price and private....(not shared with other groups). We will definitely make use of their services for any trips back to the area.
“Memphis Tours The Best !”
thomas, 12/11/13
Just spent a short Cairo break in Egypt with Memphis Topurs from October 22-24,2013. First off, wish I would have spent much longer there. A big thank you to FADY and MEHMET and ASHRAF! I was picked up at the airport by Fady and he explained the schedule for the next few days and was very thorough. They put me up at the Mena House Hotel which is quite deluxe. Went to the Pyramids and Egyptian Museum with Mehmet and finally the best city tour with Fady and Ashraf our driver. Please everyone use a local Egyptian Tour Company as they have the real pulse of whats happening and that means Memphis Tour Company.Hey Fady get ready I will be back in 2015 for Siwa. Thanks for making me feel like a local for a few days in Cairo! Thomas from Los Angeles Cal.
Great accomodation for a short stay
Nelson E, 1/31/12
I stayed in Cairo for 4 days and 3 nights. My first evening, I got to see the Light and Sound Show. For the 2nd day, I visited the Giza Pyramids, Cairo Tower, and the Citadel. For the third day, I visited Memphis and Sakkara. Memphis Tours was very organized and professional from the travel agent booking the hotels and tours, to the driver and knowledgeable guides. The guides are very informative and hospitable. My guide to and from the airport was George S. and my guide throughout the trip was Ayman E. I highly recommend selecting Memphis Tours when visiting Egypt.
“Memphis Tours gave us the best Egypt experience...”
Robert-Ireland I, 1/6/12
Our first trip to Egypt was truly wonderful. Our consultant, Eman, was very patient and tailored our tour many times until we finally made our minds up. At the last minute, we missed our flights (through our own fault), and booked the next available flight. I could only send an email explaining our new flight and hope for the best. Upon arrival in Cairo, Osama was waiting for us and guided us through the airport and to our hotel with the utmost of courtesy. Cairo is an incredibly chaotic place, and without such assistance I would have gone quite mad. As it was, our holiday was fantastic. Our guides throughout the time there were exceptional - Nabil Sefain and Yasser. We took a Nile cruise that truly incredible. Everyone we met made us feel completely welcome. We will definitely be returning. Egypt is very magical - you can ignore the recent media coverage. We went all over Cairo and never experienced any trouble anywhere. Don't let anything put you off a journey there - you won't regret a moment.
Outstanding tour and excellent tour guide
Ana T, 11/5/11
I visited Cairo, for a few days. Memphis Tours organized private tours for me. They were all outstanding, the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and ready to answer all my questions. The tours were carefully planned and covered all that I was interested in. The transportation was comfortable and always on time. I highly recommend the company and the tour guide.

An ideal package to see a lot in a short time
Cliff O, 10/26/11
We wanted to see the pyramids and related items in just a few days, and Memphis Tours provided the ideal package. Our first contact Fattoush ,our guides Ahmed and Ameny, and our driver Emad were all splendid. From arrival to departure we were looked after and alol the hassles of tourism were removed, yet we were free to do things as we liked at our own pace..

Best Tour Group Ever!!! You Must See Cairo with Memphis Tours
Regina L, 10/2/11
Anyone who is looking to travel to Egypt MUST use this tour group! They were beyond excellent! They were wonderfully prompt through email as I was planning the trip. I explained to them what we wanted to see and they sent back a detailed itinerary that was better then we could have imagined! Hamada R. of Memphis Tours and a wonderful, safe driver picked us up every morning from our hotel and gave us tour of the areas we were driving through. When we wanted to pull over to take a photo by the Nile River, they were happy to do so! They took us to our "specialized" tour guide for the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and the Museum. When we decided we wanted to ride camels around the pyramids, they set that up, and we have the best photos ever! The detailed knowledge of the tour guides really had our interests peaked. We were able to have an interactive learning session rather than a lecture like some tours end up being. Thanks to Memphis Tours, our trip to Egypt was exceptional! But he best part about our trip is the friendship we created with Hamada. He is our dear friend and we talk with him every week on Facebook! ~Regina

Sorry it took so long to email back to you. We are just returning home from our travels. Patty and I would like to thank you for all your help on our recent visit to Cairo! We truly enjoyed the amazing sights and ancient feel of Egypt. We would also like to express our appreciation to the drivers and tour guides your agency provided . All were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional -- especially Mohammed who met us at the airport and arranged our transfers and tours.
Again, thank you and your team for a fascinating and delightful stay in Cairo .
Second Time around... just as excellent as the first !!
Pete4353, 2/10/11
Have now toured Cairo with Memphis Tours for the last two years during our Christmas
and New Year breaks in Egypt. They are consistently providing excellent service, care and fulfilling every promise. Our guides and drivers have been polite , courteous, knowledgeable and most of all careful. We have wonderful memories of our stays in Cairo, thanks primarily to Memphis Tours and our Memphis Tours contact Eman Rashad from the Giza office.
Thank You all so much.
Excellent, Wonderful and Thankful for a good and happy holidays in Cairo, Giza & Alexandria
tiara88, 2/7/11
I went to Cairo/Giza and Alexandria from 22 to 26 Jan 2011 (4days 3 nties) with my aged parents dad 78years old and mum 74years old and stayed at the Grand Pyramid Hotel. My wonderful tour guide Ahmed Farahat was an excellent , experienced, patient, kind , understanding and last but not least accommodating especially with my aged parents who are quite slow in their movements such as walking . Ahmed had made our short stay in Egypt a very pleasant and wonderful experience. I would certainly recommend him for future trips to all my friends who are interested to go to Egypt.
Ahmed has all praise from both my parents also. Thank you Ahmed for taking care of us during our holidays, its a wonderful 4days experience that we had in Egypt. God Bless you always !
“Memphis Tours, Cairo”

“The Time of My Life”
MarquiaJohnson, 7/3/10
I was studying abroad in Malta, and a group of us wanted to go to Egypt for a weekend. We booked the Cairo Budget Tour. It included trips to the pyramids, hotel stay, transportation, a tour leader, driver, tour guide, trips to the museums, camel ride, dinner cruise on the Nile River, and much more. It was the absolutely perfect weekend for us. We were greeted at the airport by Mohammed Omran Mimmo, our tour leader. He was the best tour leader that anyone could have asked for. He ensured that we got to our hotel safely. If we need to go to the store for anything, he made it happen. Any detours that we threw his way; he accepted the challenge and made it happen. He definitely made our trip worthwhile. Our tour guide was Mohamad Raafat Marghany. This man was awesome. The wealth of knowledge that he gave us was priceless. He answered every question we asked with poise and confidence. I told him that I was going to bring my entire family back to Egypt just to hear him explain the history of this ancient place. Eman was our driver. He drove us everywhere we wanted to go from the time we got there until the time we left. I wish I could have stayed in Egypt longer. I also know that I have gained some true friends from this short-lived adventure.
The VIP Treatment
katebrunk, 5/11/10
I used Memphis tours for my recent 4 day trip to Cairo and could not be more pleased with the service I received. For several reasons, I recommend Memphis Tours to everyone:
1. Private guided tours - just you, the driver and your guide so, no jockeying for position among a large bus load of other tourists, no standing in lines for tickets.
2. Knowledgeable guides - I learned more in 3 days from Memphis Tours professional guides than in years of school. I am still telling the stories behind the photographs I took that I would have never known without the guide.
3. Safe and reliable transportation - Picked up by a private driver in a clean, safe and modern car.
4. Freedom - Do the tour at your pace, in the order you want and choose to spend all your time with the guide, or sneak away to explore a site and take pictures if you want. It is ALL UP TO YOU.
5. Price - Memphis Tours is extremely economical and demonstrates high value for the services you get. You get the VIP treatment at a reasonable cost.
Overall, I was more than impressed with the service; so much so that I booked tours for each day including the Luxor Trip by Air, The Giza Pyramids and Memphis Tour and the Dinner Cruise on the Nile.....I highly recommend the 1 day trip to Luxor...well worth the trip!
