Our Story
Who We Are
Who are we? We were born in the heart of Cairo, Egypt, as part of the experienced Girassol Viagens family. Girasol Egypt Travel and Tours is the fruit of a union between Egyptian experts, passionate about their homeland, and Tourism professionals who deeply understand the desires of travelers.

Operating as your ground handler in Egypt, we rely on solid partnerships with the best hotel networks and luxurious Nile cruises, guaranteeing memorable experiences and excellent service, both for you, the traveler, and for the agencies that trust us.
31 years weaving a passion for Egypt into every step our travelers take.
Three decades dedicated to transforming expectations into immersive experiences. With technical expertise and cultural sensitivity, we craft journeys that harmonize historical authenticity, comfort, and transformative discoveries.
The Symbol that Inspires Us
Our Logo: A Symbol of Excellence, Built on Timeless Values
The Pyramid: The Foundation of Progress & Mastery
At its heart stands a stylized representation of the Step Pyramid of Sakkara—the world's first pyramid. This symbolizes our foundational commitment to progress, structure, and evolutionary mastery. Just as this ancient wonder marked a revolutionary step forward in architectural history, we see every journey as a purposeful, upward ascent.
The Feather: The Pillar of Justice & Integrity
Enshrined within the pyramid's form is the Feather of Maat, the ancient Egyptian symbol of truth, balance, and moral order. This powerful symbol is our sacred commitment to justice, fairness, and ethical integrity in all our dealings.
The Name: Clarity, Warmth, and Guiding Light
"Girasol" – the latin word for Sunflower – was chosen with deep intention. The sunflower is a universal emblem of positivity, warmth, and an unwavering orientation toward light. In the context of travel, this translates to clarity, optimism, and joyful discovery.
The Stylized 'G': Our Signature of Radiance
The first letter of our name, the 'G', is artistically rendered as the blooming heart of a sunflower. This floral 'G' visually communicates openness, radiant energy, and transparent service.
Together, these elements fuse into a single, powerful statement: We are a company built on the solid progress of expertise, guided by the ethical integrity of justice, and delivered with the transparent warmth of a guiding light.
