Breathtaking buildings and history
Having spent our first two days exploring ancient Egypt this was an opportunity to bring us fully up to date through the multiple layers if Egyptian history and it didn’t disappoint. Ahmed is an excellent guide and bought the history to life as we toured three important sites. The old town visiting Coptic churches and the Ben Ezra synagogue was fascinating and especially the links to the beginnings of the Christian church. The citadel of Saladin is enormous and well worth a visit while the mosque is genuinely breathtaking. We chose not to visit the bazaar as we needed to get our flight home so the whole tour took circa three hours. Would highly recommend the tour and Ahmed especially.

See the real Cairo with the best guide!!
Beshoy is simply the best tour guide you will find. He is so experienced and knowledgable about the city and its history. I was meant to do it in a pair but my guest couldn’t make it. So I did the trip solo and it was a pleasure to be in Beshoy’s company. As well as showing me the sites of old Cairo, he also took me to some amazing local shops like a perfumerie where I got the best and most authentic service. He looks after you in the negotiation too making sure you get a good price. I got some amazing oils for great value and some amazing pieces from the bazaar. Doing a solo trip I also got to know a bit about Beshoy as a person. He’s a wonderful guy and I’d throughly recommend anyone who wants to see the real Cairo to be guided by Beshoy. Thank you so much
