4 Days Egypt Experience for Solo Woman Egypt Fun Tours min 1

Amazing experience

My husband and I had a ten-hour layover in Cairo and luckily found Egypt Fun Tours while researching tour companies online. The owner, Hamada, picked us up from the airport and brought us around Cairo. He took us to see the pyramids, which was a memory I will never forget.

Great layover Tour!!

I had an excellent layover tour with Hani. He is knowledgable, fun, and passionate about his city. I went for a tour of the pyramids, sphinx, and to a papyrus factory which were all great. Ask him any question about Egyptian history and he will surely know the answer! Also

Book with Egypt Fun Tours!!

In April 2011, my husband and I, after great debate, took a trip to Egypt. Because of the political situation, we decided to book a tour for our time in Cairo and Luxor. We are very happy that we did, since these are two cities that should not be missed.

Amazing Experience

Hamada was incredible! So knowledgeable and kind. He had information about every item, street corner, and relic we looked at. Any questions we had, he had answers! He even made sure to give us tips while walking through the crowds so that we would feel more comfortable when being approached
