Four Hours of Detailed Surprise
Delicious tour. Ehab is a superb guide. Informative and light-hearted, he not only knows every bit of information but knows everyone along the route. He was incredibly helpful in many ways and i highly recommend him as a guide. Shady, the driver, was supremely careful yet assertive in Cairene traffic. Thank you!

Best Tour of Cairo!
My husband and I truly loved this tour! Probably one of the best in all of Cairo! Our driver picked us up at 10 and we were done around 3pm. In total it was around a 6 hour tour and definitely worth it. Ahmed our guide was so knowledgeable and filled of history. He explained all of the sites with such great detail. All of the guards knew him and made us feel comfortable at each location we visited. It is truly an amazing tour!
