Verified Egypt trip with private guide. Where do I start. I found Nahla online after an intensive search and let me tell you what a blessing it was. I contacted her and told her exactly what places in Egypt I want to visit, within couple of days, she drew an exact itinerary for everything and all the cities that I needed to visit to see everything i wanted. . Her knowledge and personality are the best. Her heart is the biggest the way she treats stray dogs in Egypt and feeds them every time she’s in the area should tell everyone how big of a heart she has. herself and her team exceeded all my expectations and delivered everything to my expectations and beyond. I highly recommend her and her team for your trip to Egypt and believe me she’ll set up any customized itineraries you need. Thanks Nahla very much.. 
David H2024-04-29Verified The Best Guide Had an absolute blast in Egypt! It’s important to have a good guide! Nahla was amazing. She was very knowledgeable about history! Everything was organized so well from the time we were picked up from the airport, all the tours all over Egypt. Nahla was very helpful in literally everything …. she helped us a lot during the trip. Her love for animals was very touching! Thank you for being there for us during our trip! 
Henry Pennay2024-04-02Verified The BEST Experience of My Life! Going to Egypt has always been a dream for me. Once I knew my family and I was going, I was overwhelmed with excitement. Our tour guide, Nahla, made the trip I dreamed of since I was little so much more memorable and awesome. Over the four days we spent together, Nahla and I became good friends! She is someone I look up to. From the Pyramids of Giza to the huge Catacombs of Alexandria, I hope this adventure is the beggining to many more! Thank you! Henry Pennay 
Traveler227160498212024-03-24Verified Unforgettable experience! Thanks to the Guide du Routard, we found a comment from a tourist who had found Mona AMIN as a French-speaking guide. Thanks to the latter, she put us in touch with one of her 10 guides HOWAIDA MOUSSA. She is beyond a tourist guide: she loves her job, passionate about its history! Very endearing, it matched immediately. We stayed with her PDT for 5 days. She adapted to our group of 8 people (25 to 80 years old!❤️). Its driver was voted the most ZEN in Cairo. We left Howaida with a lot of emotions and the appointment is made for next year for Luxor, Aswan.... INCHALLAH ❤️ 
RB2024-03-17Verified Excellent and we'd book again! We had an excellent experience with Nahla and we fully recommend her as a tour guide!!! We wanted to support a woman in business and we are glad that we made this choice. Two of our family have read a lot about Egypt and one of us just has a basic knowledge. Nahla showed great depth of knowledge and the two of us enjoyed learning even more about fascinating Egypt. For the other member of our family, Nahla was just as courteous in answering simple questions about history and culture. One of the most notable things about Nahla is that she re-lives every experience as "new" because she lives them through her clients. You know she is always glad to show the sights of Egypt and delighted to retell the history of the world's greatest civilization! Our itinerary included the pyramids, camel ride, sphynx, the GEM, the Egyptian Museum, the sound and light show at the pyramids, the City of the Dead, the Khan El-Khalili bazaar, jewelry shopping, and a felucca ride on the Nile. Others will say the Giza complex can be stressful but Nahla made it easy for us to get the most out of the pyramid visit, camel ride, and sphynx. The GEM, although only partly open, was a great experience with Nahla guiding us through the artifacts. We could have spent days at the Egyptian Museum and Nahla gave us an expert walk-through of all the highlights that made us feel like we got the absolute best out of that visit. Nahla's connections gave us an "insider's" experience at the City of the Dead, and she timed the visit to the Khan El-Khalili bazaar so that we avoided the heavy crowds. She found a safe boat with an experienced sailor, so the felucca ride was enjoyable and worry-free. We truly believe that having Nahla as a tour guide meant that vendors weren't as pushy. It was easy to collect a few souvenirs when we stopped to do that and we could ask Nahla's advice about when to bargain or when to pay the price marked on the item. She also helped us navigate through line-ups and she communicated with security personnel on our behalf when needed. These small but meaningful actions show what an exemplary tour guide she is! We were transported by Wael, an excellent driver that Nahla arranged for the week. He took us around to all the sights with her, and picked us up and returned us to the airport. We asked Nahla for a good quality vehicle and safe driver, and that is indeed what we got. Another notable characteristic is that Nahla helped us manage our schedule without us ever feeling rushed. In fact, that is exactly why we opted for a personalized experience with her -- to NOT be part of a large tour group but instead to visit Egypt with a guide at a pace that suited us. Nahla made that experience perfect. Nahla showed kindness to many of the stray animals in the places we visited. She also showed respect to many of the underprivileged people in the community. All of these gestures demonstrate what a caring and kind person she is. Arranging the itinerary was easy and confirming final details was handled expertly. The deposit and final payment were handled without any trouble through a trustworthy e-payment platform. A final note of praise -- we had a few full days of activities at the beginning of Ramadan, and Nahla kept on going strong! If we are lucky enough to return to Egypt, we will happily book Nahla again!!!

Rachel H2024-03-03Verified Great time in Cairo We booked Nahla for day tour of the pyramids during our time on Cairo. It was easy to communicate with her to organize in advance. We liked supporting a woman-owned business and had a wonderful tour. Would highly recommend! 
Aatltd112024-01-17Verified The best guide! Nahla was our guide in both Cairo and Luxor. She has so much knowledge to share and she shares in the most enjoyable way. After hearing that our hotel forget to send a car to pick us up upon arrival, Nahla took it upon herself to make sure every other pickup was arranged, no matter what city we were in. Her enthusiasm for Egypt was watershed early in. Not only did we learn about the county and its history, we met a new friend. Highly recommended! 
Daneris C2023-12-31Verified Journey of a lifetime with magnificent Nahla Many thanks to you dear Nahla 🙏 you shepherded us through a beautiful and fascinating journey through Aswan and Cairo. Temples, the Nile, Egyptian precious perfumes like the blue lotus, light, beauty, the pyramids and deep spiritual connections🌹 It is difficult for me to describe how wonderful and grateful I am for your presence, work and efforts during the journey 💗 I could let go knowing that you had things in hand. No small thing with a group of 28. With love, blessings, and thanks 🙏 
Debbie S2023-12-28Verified 3 Amazing Cultural Days What an adventure with a fabulous, knowledgeable female historian Hagar.

Nahla was fantastic. Everywhere we went she had lots of information to share, and wise travel tips. She was kind to the people and animals around us, and made the entire experience smooth and easy.
Richard Guetzloff –
My wife and I enjoyed two wonderful days with Nahla the first weekend in February 2024. We did the Pyramids, museums, and Citadel. Nahla is a wonderful guide, full of knowledge and very accommodating. My wife was a bit apprehensive coming to Cairo due to the geopolitical situation along with some concerns as a woman in Egypt. Nahla put my wife at ease with her kind and pleasant demeanor. We also did some shopping and Nahla was very helpful finding the best shops. We both highly recommend Nahla!
Uli Braun –
Our day visiting the pyramids with Nahla was very memorable – it felt much more like going around with a friend than a tour guide. Our young daughter loved the fact that Nahla brought food to feed many of the stray dogs living around the sights, it kept her very busy and engaged throughout the day. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly all along the Giza plateau, visiting a local bakery and ending the afternoon at Saqqara- Nahla provided great context and guidance all along the way.
