  1. Easily the best 2 days of the year!

    “We were doing the 14 days Mediterranean cruise and were in Egypt for two days. I was searching over the internet for about 4 days and finally found Egypt Fun Tours as my guide in Egypt. It ended up being the best 2 days of the entire cruise trip.

    Since this is a personalized trip so you can pretty much request anything that you want, we went to the Cairo night market and did some hookah smoking!”

  2. Great shore excursion of Cairo & Giza
    We are glad that we arranged our private shore excursion with Egypt Fun tours in last week of October 2012. Booking process was very easy with Hamada and she took care of all our questions promptly just via E-mail. Our group was little worried about safety in Egypt especially because of anti-US demonstrations, but Hamada assured our safety. On the day of shore excursion, the van was there on the port on time with Egyptologist Asharaf. We made a big itinerary for a day to visit Giza and Cairo as much as possible, but Asharaf completed it very professionally and in a friendly manner. The authentic lunch was arranged in a very good tourist restaurant in Giza with a view of Pyramids. Round-trip to Cairo attractions from Alexandria port via Giza in a day involves lot of driving but the professional driver did it very safely. This was our private tour, but it turned out much cheaper than the cruise ship’s excursion prices. Thanks to Hamada, Asharaf and the driver.We highly recommend Egypt Fun Tours!!
