We had an excellent time. Ahmed (our guide) was very knowledgable and taught us a lot about the history of the city. Maged (our driver) was very courteous and navigated us well through the city. Would highly recommend

Doaa was an amazing guide. We learned so much from her about the history of Egypt and about religion from an Egyptian perspective. Doaa was delightful, knowledgeable, understandable and we have never learned as much on a tour as this one. I wish I had videotaped her so I could remember everything she explained to us. The tour was incredible. Don’t miss out on this and request Doaa.

I had a great first day in Cairo. I saw all the sites in Old Cairo I wanted to see and more. I felt very safe the whole day with my guide Ahmed and his driver as a woman traveling alone. Ahmed was very pleasant and knowledgeable. I highly recommend taking the tour.

Kareem is the goat. The best tour guide in the whole city. I would recommend him to anyone looking to do a tour in the city. He’s very knowledgeable.

I had a great time and saw a lot on this tour! Anyone who is interested in architecture, religious history, or both will enjoy the experience. Simon was very friendly and knowledgeable and took me to a couple of local spots in the bazaar for items I was particularly interested in, and we had a nice little rest at one of the coffee shops. She also offered to take pictures of me at the various places we visited, which any solo traveler knows is one of the hardest things to accomplish on one's own. I recommend this tour and if you have Simon as your guide even better!

When we booked this tour last minute, I didn't realise that our guide was just that - our guide - not one of a group of people - no radio mic with the earpiece that aches after 5 mins- this was a one on one guide all to ourselves. We met our guide, Simon ( Simone ), in the lobby of our hotel, introduced ourselves, and then we were on our way with our private driver (so cool). Our itenary was to visit Islamic Cairo, Coptic Cairo, Khan el Khalili markets, and a felucca ride. Right from the start, Simon was great, taking time to show us things of interest, pointing out historical items, and taking photos for us, of us. Unfortunately, due to an upset stomach, we cut the tour short, missing out the markets and the felucca, which i am sure would have been awesome. If you read this, and you get to Cairo, and you want to be treated that extra bit special, do yourself a favour and contact Simon. She knows her stuff! I'm keeping her whatsapp for the next time we come to Egypt.

The booking process and communication from company wasn’t as smooth as I would have expected with messages being sent and then deleted, And offer of a reduced fee pick up was given and then removed without explanation. My guide Simon was very friendly and helpful and made my day a very enjoyable experience - her knowledge of Egyptian history and the places we visited was very comprehensive and I leave alot from her. I felt very safe as a solo female traveler and the tour was everything I had Hope and more.

Beshoy, my habibi, we want to thank you so much for our time together! Out of the three guides we booked via Viator, we must to admit that you exceeded all expectations. You treated us as family, took great care of us when our next tour guide (other company) stood us up. We felt the passion in your voice and stories on how much you like showing people around in Cairo. Nothing was too much for you, and while we visited some shops during the tour, we never felt obligated to buy something. We rather felt very much welcomed in the places you took us. And, I do not think we would have found those nose places on our own! Next time, hopefully soon, I will definitely plan another tour with you, and I want to advise everyone else to do so too! Many many thanks again! Your habibi
