Answers before you book
Straight answers about private guiding so you can plan with ease.
Do I really need a private guide in Cairo?
A private guide turns a busy day into a considered one. You move at your own pace, skip the queues, and hear the stories behind the stones. For first-time visitors and returning travelers alike, it makes the city far more legible.
What languages do your guides speak?
Our licensed guides offer fluent English. On request, we also arrange French, German, Spanish, and Italian. Let us know your preference when you inquire, and we will match you with a guide you can converse with comfortably.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking at least two to three days ahead, especially during high season. That said, we often accommodate last-minute requests. Send a WhatsApp message, and we will confirm availability promptly.
Can the tour be tailored to my interests?
Absolutely. Whether you want to focus on the Pyramids, the Egyptian Museum, or Islamic Cairo, we shape the day around you. We also adjust the pace to suit your group and suggest itineraries based on your preferences.
Is transportation included with the guide?
We arrange private, air-conditioned vehicles for your comfort, including door-to-door pickup from your Cairo or Giza hotel. If you prefer to arrange your own transport, we can simply meet you at the site.
What is the customary tipping for guides?
Tipping is at your discretion. Many travelers offer a gratuity based on the quality of the experience, typically around 10 to 15 percent of the tour cost. Your guide will never pressure you, and your gratitude is always welcomed.
