Coptic, Islamic and Khan el Kalili Cairo
We took this wonderful tour of Coptic, Islamic Cairo and Khan el Khalili market with Fady, a fantastic guy, sunny and deeply passionate about his work. Despite his young age, he is incredibly prepared and competent. He told us many anecdotes, curiosities and historical details that only a local like him could know, making each stage even more authentic and engaging. With him it was not the classic guided tour: it was like walking through the city with a friend. It immediately created a light and spontaneous atmosphere, but at the same time professional and organized. Thanks to Fady we saw a real, vivid Cairo, rich in history and everyday life, which we would not have been able to discover in the same way on our own. He is one of those people who really make a difference on a trip. We hope you too can meet him and live such a special experience!

Thank you - Great Experience in Cairo.
We had a wonderful afternoon with Fady—he showed us some great places and we were able to immerse ourselves in the city of Cairo. It was great to get a first impression after arriving here in the city. Our driver was also very good and drove smoothly through the city—we felt safe and well taken care of at all times. Thank you very much!

Great tour
Ahmed was awesome as a tour guide. Had a fantastic experience and would recommend a half day tour to Coptic churches, mosques and the market. Ahmed was very knowledgeable and friendly. Our driver was amazing as well navigating though the chaotic streets of Egypt.

Good start to our stay in Cairo
This was our first day in Cairo. Tour guide Sandy was knowledgeable and charismatic. Tour guide was very helpful getting money exchanged safely. The driver John was super professional and kept us safe. Very good vibe in the car. The historical sights did not disappoint. My fault for not managing better, but too many tourist shopping stops.
