Excellent introduction to Cairo
We had a wonderful four-hour private tour in Cairo. It was a very enjoyable experience, with a knowledgeable and friendly guide and a professional driver who made us feel comfortable throughout the tour. We discovered the beautiful Christian and Islamic heritage of Old Cairo, which gave us a great insight into the city’s rich history and culture. The visit was well balanced and informative, without feeling rushed. We also enjoyed stopping by several local shops, which added a nice local touch to the experience. Overall, this tour is highly recommended for anyone who wants to get a great first impression of Cairo in a short amount of time.
