    Gammal and Egypt Key Tour are the best tour agency I have ever travelled with. His service was extremely professional from the first message all the way until good bye when we left Egypt. He helped plan for our amazing honeymoon, scheduled the best tour guides, drivers and airport meet ups. Everything was down to perfect planning and arrangements. He helped us arrange last minute items such as balloon rides and a trip to Alexandria. All in all Gammal was beyond amazing and I would definitely recommend Egypt Key Tour services.

    My husband and I generally dislike tours and tour guides, but Egypt Key Tours and Gamal have completely changed our mind! We spent two days in Cairo and three days in Luxor with my family and it was all of our first time in Egypt. Gamal was wonderful, responsive, and prompt when we were planning the trip, and he was incredible helpful once we arrived and throughout the entire trip. Mohammed, our guide in Cairo, was unbelievably well-spoken and educated about the amazing things we saw. He told the history and facts in a very clear and memorable way. Mohammed, our guide in Luxor, was also very smart and informative about everything we saw there. All of our drivers were also very good and helpful. We learned so much on this trip and saw some of the most amazing things we've ever seen! Having drivers and vans and guides made this trip so much easier than it would have been otherwise! It was all reasonably priced and worth every single penny that we paid. I cannot recommend Egypt Key Tours enough!!!

    A trip of a lifetime! We just spent an amazing 7 days with Egypt Key Tours. Our guide Gamal was an absolute legend. We travelled with two young boys (6 years old and 2 years old). Gamal very quickly became 'Uncle Jimmy' to our boys. We were able to see all the amazing sites in and around Cairo and Alexandria, while taking into consideration the needs of a young family. If you are looking for a safe, knowledgeable and reliable service, you must use Egypt Key Tours. We truly will never forget our time in Egypt.

    We were able to spend 10 glorious days in Egypt, and I can tell you -without a doubt- that the best decision we made when researching this trip was to go with Egypt Key Tours. We never do tours, we usually just research our destination, decide where to go and make use of public transportation or rent a car, depending on what suits us. We like to visit places at our own pace and we just dislike the idea of feeling "herded"... moving from one tourist place to another in haste with a group of strangers. That's not how we travel! I give you this background so you can understand why we truly appreciated everything that Egypt Key Tours and his owner Gamal did for us! When we decided that for Egypt we wouldn't be able to travel solo, and we needed locals to help us get everywhere we wanted to go and get all the information we wanted from each place, we started looking here and reading reviews. I'm here to tell you that if that's your case, please, don't look any further... Gamal is your guy! From the very first email, where I sent him a rough itinerary of every place we wanted to visit during our 10 days in Egypt... to the moment when he left us back at Cairo Airport to travel back home... to his messages two days after that to make sure we got home safe, I was so impressed! He's a professional in every sense of the word, and he's passionate about his work. He's meticulous and detailed oriented, he makes sure everything (and I mean everything!) goes according to plan so that your vacation is the best one ever. This was such a different travel experience for me! After all our details where in place (so many emails back and forth and he always answered every little doubt I had!), once we arrived... it was all taken care for us! I truly enjoyed this "hands off" travel experience where the professionals were with us every step of the way and we just had to live the experience! I felt so pampered and well taken care of! All the drivers were great, Gamal himself was with us for all 4 airport days. The guides he chose for us were incredible! Both Heba who was with us for all the Cairo and Giza days, and Mohammed who picked us up in Luxor, stayed with us at the wonderful Nile River Cruise and sent us back from Aswan after our cruise ... they were so wonderful! It was such a great learning experience to be able to have them explain to us the rich history behind every place we visited! They were so knowledgeable, so kind and so wonderful to spend time with! We made some great friends in Egypt! We got a truly personalized travel itinerary, we went where we wanted, and spent the time we wanted, we got loads of information and knowledge, we truly enjoyed every minute of it. I feel we were taken by their hands, guided, and we were able to make the most of our 10 short days in Egypt thanks to Egypt Key Tours. Even taking care of our every worry, like having someone just come to our hotel room to take our Covid 19 test samples, to delivering the results (we needed to get back home) by hand to us the next day. We had a couple of minor medical emergencies and our guides, the drivers and Gamal himself all helped us along the way making them just a minor setback in an otherwise flawless trip! So, if you're like me and find yourself researching for a great agent to help you navigate Egypt and make the most of your vacation, be it a couple of weeks or just a couple of day tours ... look no further! Thanks again, Egypt Key Tours for making our dream Egypt vacation a reality!

    Gammal at Key Tours was amazing!!!! My husband and my experience could not have been better. Communication was quick and efficient from the very first email. We had a big itinerary, and Gammal made it all fit. He also did a few last minute add ons, and he took it in stride. It was seamless. We had a concern about safety; we never-never ever worried because we were with Gammal's team. We were safe. They navigated us through the sites, even with throngs of people. Our trip was so enjoyable and so efficient. Our travel trip this year included: Egypt, Jordan, and Israel. Our favorite was Egypt, and it was all because of the care we received from Gammal at Key Tours. Superb tour guides were Emod, Gouda, and Chanerelle. The superb driver was Akmed. They were all efficient, pleasant, and knowledgeable. It is a seamless operation from the point of the tourist. What a wonderful tour company. We loved his tours and procedures so much. We have traveled a lot in the last ten years, and never have we enjoyed the ease which the beautiful country of Egypt was shown to us by Key Tours. We asked Gammal if he also did other tours in other countries. We wanted to sign up! Excellent care from the first email to the last goodbye. Thank you so much for showing us your amazing country; because of you, our experience has brought wonderful memories. If those reading this review are wondering what tour group to take, this is the one! I have referred Key Tours to five people already. If there were a six star rating, Key Tours would get that rating. What a Class A+++ tour company.

    I have visited Cairo three times. I have used Egypt Key Tours for every visit. My very first visit I really did not know what items I should plan to see as the area is so full of historical sites. I contacted Egypt Key Tours and received a very thorough and informative list of items to see and several suggested itineraries to choose from. The recommendations even included several hotel choices for our review. The packages include prices for entry into the main exhibits. The value was amazing. I’ve paid double for tours that didn’t give me half as much in quantity or quality as this trip. My travel plans this first visit included my sister and niece. Three American women visiting Egypt. I have never felt safer in any of my other travels. Egypt Key Tours picked us up at the airport. They helped navigate to ensure our visit visa was completed. Then the drivers took us to our hotel. Of note was a very nice vehicle to travel in. We were not only taken to the hotel, but escorted in to ensure check-in was seamless. Each day was filled with adventure. When a very foggy day made viewing the pyramids impossible, Egypt Key Tours made sure to adjust the tour schedule to indoor activities for that day and got us back to view the pyramids in all their splendor. The knowledge of the Egyptian History by tour guide is the best. This was not a scripted speech for us, this was detailed knowledge of every thing we went to see. Knowledge of the Kings, the pyramids, the hieroglyphics, the Library of Alexandria, the museum displays and the buildings of the city as we drove from one wonder to the next. This city was not one that I had on a bucket list for me but it should be on yours. I loved it so much that I have safely returned, on my own, two more times to enjoy this wonderful place. There is still so much more for me to see that future trips will be planned. Egypt Key Tours will be my tour guide.

    My trip to Egypt was made outstanding and unforgettable because of Gamal and his team! We felt very welcomed in Cairo and had an incredible time. The pyramids were AMAZING and we loved experiencing the history behind Cairo. The key elements of this trip were the guides! Bassam was super knowledgeable and energetic - best part was seeing him read hieroglyphics at the Egyptian Museum. He also was incredibly helpful in getting back money when we over tipped a camel rider at the Pyramid of Giza (LOL). Jamal also knows SO much about the Islamic and Coptic monuments in Cairo and we had a great time exploring them. He was a very enthusiastic guide (one random tourist in a mosque FELT that and complimented him haha) and very professional, respectful. Our driver Mohammed was also super cheery and sweet! Everyone made this trip sooo wonderful, and we hope to return to Egypt soon with other friends and family.

    Third time travel with Egypt Key Tours. I will continue to come to Egypt and I will always use Egypt Key Tours because each trip is planned according to the customer needs. As an American traveling in the Middle East, and a female alone, I feel completely safe here. Egypt Key Tours customizes each tour - I love animals and they helped me plan trips to a local rescue so I could spend time with horses, donkeys, dogs and cats while I was here. This is my third trip here - it will not be my last trip. And Egypt Key Tours will always be a part of my travel plans here.

    Amazing two day tour with the company. Collection from the airport, great service. Gamal our tour guide was great from start to finish. Started with a dinner cruise on the river Nile. Amazing setting. Day two trip to the pyramids...amazing day (Great photos by our guide -knew all the spots). Went to the museum and markets. Overall experience was terrific. Need to have a tour guide with car to travel around Cairo as it is so busy and wouldn’t have been able to do it with two girls in their own. Would highly recommend this company!

    Emailed Egypt Key Tours on a recommendation of a co-worker. Provided them my flight arrival and departure times and they quickly put together an itinerary for my weekend visit. They made sure through the entire process that I was happy with the selections and provided me with options to choose from to best fit my sight seeing desires. For my private tour I was met on arrival at the airport for assistance with visa and entry. I then met my guide who showed me around all the sites and provided information on the history of the country and each place visited. I would highly recommend the service and their personalized plan made sure I saw everything I wanted to see in the time I had.

    Thank you Gamal for aiding us on our trip to Egypt, it made all the difference to have someone on the ground taking care of logistics. Gamal organised for us the following: meet and greet from Cairo airport, transfer to hotel, private day tour at Giza and the museum with no additional stops to perfume shops etc (thanks for listening in this one!!), then transfer and assistance through the airport to travel to Hurghada and local transfers at the other end. This meant our self planned holiday (as opposed to a package tour) went really smoothly which was important as we travelled with our 9 year old child. We would also like to highly recommend the tour guide that Gamal organised for us - Othman was so knowledgeable and really helped keep the touts at bay.

    I'm really happy I went with Egypt Key Tours for my 8 day tour of the country. Everything from arrival to departure was seamless and hassle free. The owner of the company, Gamal, communicated with me regularly before the tour and provided all the information I needed, including recommendations on where to stay. He also kept in touch with me throughout the tour, including accompaying me from and to Cairo airport. The tour guides, Heba for the Cairo tours, and Mohammed for the Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel tours, were both excellent. They were friendly, passionate and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend Egypt Key Tours whether for a day or multi day tour.

    My co-workers highly recommended Egypt Key Tours based in their personal experience and I am so glad I listened to them. Gamal maintained excellent communication with me during the planning stages of my trip and adjusted the itinerary based on my preferences. Upon arrival everything went smoothly. Each day was an adventure and because he knows the area and people so well he was able to arrange the timing of my experiences to minimize the crowds and maximize the experience. Even though our days were planned, Gamal is flexible and he was able to provide the additional memories of a camel ride at the pyramids and local Egyptian lunch at one of his favorite restaurants. He is also very helpful when you are negotiating your purchases! Gamal is very knowledgeable and proud of the heritage and history of his country so all of the information he provided as we visited the various locations was intriguing. Egypt Key Tours provides excellent communication and professional service at a great value. I highly recommend them for your trip!

    I highly recommend Gamal and his team for a personalized incredible tour of Egypt. He went beyond and above our expectations making sure we were safe and had an authentic experience. His hospitality friendliness and extensive knowledge made every day a brilliant education. Our boys learnt more on this tour than they could from any book. Highlights included tunneling through the oldest pyramid in the world, driving through garbage cities streets and crafting pottery at Tunis Village. Not to mention the exceptional personalized tour of the Great pyramids of Giza and The Egyptian Museum of Antiquities.

    We were very satisfied with Egypt Key Tours. The owner Gamal responded my email enquiry promptly with a very competitive price. He arranged the 2-day Cairo tour including the airport assistance, which helped us to go through airport immigration and customs smoothly. Our tour guide, Hend, was a knowledgeable lady who enthusiastically told us the rich Egyptian history. She was very reliable and never tried to sell us things. The car drivers were also nice. I recommend anyone to use Egypt Key Tours for an enjoyable tour.
