Egypt, the most populous country in the Middle East, is located in the northeastern region of Africa and home to over 100 million people. Its capital, Cairo, sits along the Nile River and offers a blend of medieval charm and Islamic architecture. The city is rich in history, with the Egyptian Museum showcasing thousands of artifacts, including royal mummies from the New Kingdom era.

What our Travelers Say

Ibrahim was a fantastic guide—friendly and full of knowledge. We explored vibrant markets, tasted delicious falafel and kunafa, and learned about local customs. Ending at the Roman Amphitheater was a perfect finish. Highly recommend this tour if you’re in Amman! Thanks, Ibrahim, for a memorable experience!

My sister and I decided to go with Simsem for our visit to Giza in Egypt. We were paired up with the incredible Nada, who was so passionate and so knowledgeable. We were picked up and dropped off and were able to enjoy and learn about the incredible sites and this ancient history - that left us mesmerised. In addition, we follow veggie and vegan diets and were perfectly catered for. I would jump on the opportunity to explore with Simsem and Nada again. Thank you!

I had an amazing time on this adventurous and historical tour of Siwa Oasis! From the stunning desert landscapes to the salt lakes, the rich cultural heritage and the unforgettable time with locals, every moment was filled with wonder and excitement. The guide, Hakam, is an absolutely fantastic guy — knowledgeable, and passionate about the history of Siwa. He made sure that I felt comfortable and engaged throughout the journey. The lodge was perfect! I only wish I had more time to spend there. Siwa has so much to offer, not just to visit but also the community. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and enriching experience. I’ll definitely be back! Thank you again my friend ;)

This was the highlight of my trip to Egypt! Sameh made us feel like family from the moment we arrived. The bread-making workshop with local women was so special, and the countryside lunch was absolutely delicious. The palm tree climbing was hilarious and unforgettable. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a true cultural experience beyond Cairo.

I loved every detail of this day. Sameh was patient, knowledgeable, and a fantastic guide. We visited hidden spots in Dahshur, learned to make Ajwa cookies, and even crafted small souvenirs from natural Halfa plants. I especially appreciated the professional photos — such beautiful memories to take home.

An authentic Egyptian experience! Everything felt real and personal, not touristy. The lunch was one of the best meals I had in Egypt — homemade molokhia and mahshy that tasted like they came straight from a family kitchen. The workshops were fun, and it was great to meet and talk with local farmers. Gracias, Sameh!

Sameh is not just a guide, he’s a storyteller and a bridge between cultures. I learned so much about village life, agriculture, and Egyptian traditions. My favorite part was the quiet walk through the fields at sunset, followed by watching the pyramids from a hidden viewpoint. Pure magic.

I’ve traveled around Egypt before, but this was a completely different side of the country. The whole day was perfectly organized — from pickup in Cairo to the workshops, food, and photography. Sameh is warm, professional, and knows how to make everyone feel included. A must-do for travelers seeking more than the usual tourist trail.

My trip to Tanis and Bubastis was exceptional . It was about 4 hours round trip , my driver was efficient and Alaa my tour guide was very friendly , easy to speak with on just about anything so much that by the end of the trip she felt like a young sister to me . She was also very knowledgeable about the temple sites and dispensed a lot of information I def needed. The temple sites were exactly what I expected them to be , as a curious researcher , I was awed by the history of the ancient dynasties and the remains of history littered over the once beautiful sites. To say my trip was exceptional is an understatement. Thank you Alaa, you are a true gem! Thanks to Simsem for the lunch/ dinner at the end which reminded me of how hospitable Egyptians are and o can’t wait to use Simsem again when I return to Cairo … soon , inshallah! 😍
