Our family had 2 days touring of Cairo and Giza with Salam. He was so knowledgeable and both days felt relaxed as he navigated our tours and eating spots so well. Such a nice guy too. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough!

We went to the Giza Pyramids, Memphis and Saqqara with Salam. He made the trip special by sharing all his knowledge. Not only about the pyramids but about tipping, what to expect and what not to do. He also went with us to Alexandria, Khan El Khalili and the Egyptian Museum. Everything was smoothly planned out. Two thumbs up for him. He speaks Mandarin too! (Wow!) Amazing trip, Amazing guide, Amazing Egypt! (For those wondering about the safety in Egypt with the current war going on in Gaza, it's safe)

We were very well taken care during the entire trip. Salam has been very professional and knowledgeable. He would volunteered information about the place, people and the country which made the trip all the more enjoyable, and he took pride in taking photos so that we could have good memorable moments always. He could also anticipate our needs and made sure we are comfortable. He has been reliable and trustworthy. We are very luck to have met him.

My wife and I customized a 10 day itinerary in Egypt. Salam was our guide in Cairo and Alexandria. We wanted not only to see the ancient ruins, but to travel safely and experience the rich culture of Egypt. Salam did a wonderful job helping us to meet all of these goals. Our travels were rich with humor, discussions of ancient civilizations or modern culture, and traditional Egyptian food! We hope to visit Egypt and Salam in the future with our kids to see some of the sites he recommended that we could not fit into our itinerary. Egypt has so much to see and experience and Salam made certain we enjoyed every step along the way. We were very blessed to have him as our tour guide. Shukran ya, Salam!

Salam, our tour guide in Cairo, was extremely accommodating to our needs, and flexible to our last minute changes in plan. Above all, he is very knowledgeable and has a very good understanding of Egyptian history and archeology. He took great care of us and we felt very comfortable around him. He never disappointed us on his choice of restaurants. Egyptian food was delicious! Just leave everything on him, relax, and enjoy your tour with Salam! We have already recommended him to our friends who plan on visiting Egypt in near future. And of course, we will reach out directly to you Salam, when we return back to explore more of Egypt! Stay safe! Rana & Piki

The organizer of my entire tour, Salam, is very efficient and effective in his display of professionalism. The information that he provides will be comprehensive and he will definitely cater to your needs, once it is possible. The knowledge he shares is accurate and intriguing. He takes great pride in sharing his extensive knowledge about present and ancient Egypt with you. It will be riveting! Traveling is very well organized and accommodations are clean and customer service is excellent. It was truly a wonderful experience to be able to visit Egypt and take in the history. Having chosen Salam and his team made the experience very close to perfect. Thank you: Mohammed, Ahmed, Abdul, Giza, Tiger, Abdul ( at the resort in Luxor ), and of course Salam! I very much appreciate you sharing your country's rich, interesting and amazing history with me. I am proud to say that I now have Egyptian friends forever. Take best care.

Salam is very detailed, extremely helpful and has an exceptional sense of humour. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him at the various places we visited and he was also very patient after giving us time to explore the sites on our own. Really one of the best guides around. Highly recommended 👌🏽👌🏽
