10/10!!

Mariam took my friend and I on an incredible tour of the pyramids of Egypt, around the museum and to the Khan El kalili bazaar. She knew all the best spots for photo ops, acted as a personal photographer and had all the ancient goss for each place we visited! Most of all, we spent the day, although hot and sweaty, happy and feeling safe! Would recommend this tour 10/10!!

Highly recommended

Tamer, our guide, was amazing! He was very informative and shared a lot of knowledge about the sites we saw. Not only that, he was very friendly and went out of his way to accommodate us. He even took us to a couple of places that were not a part of the tour upon our request. We felt extremely safe with him (and the driver Ahamed) and truly enjoyed our experience on this tour. Tamer is highly recommended. :)

Amazing Experience

08-Dec-2023

I was traveling with my husband, 3 kids and mum and we by chance booked our tour via Upper Egypt tour and I can tell you, that was the best decision ever. From the airport pick up, the service was superb, then the next day we had the full day tour with Tamer and Amr as our driver, Tamer was very knowledgeable, understanding of the situation with conducting a tour with children and an aged parent, Tamer was patient and took us to places to go shop and that was helpful. It was a lot of fun and learning. Amr was very kind and helpful even with the kiddos. I will definitely refer Tamer and Upper Egypt Tour to anyone I know coming to Egypt
