Great tour!
Ehab gave us the best tour experience. Very knowledgeable and let us have time to explore on our own after giving us the history explanation.
The driver Shadi was awesome too. He also told us facts about Egypt as he drove us.
It was a smooth experience from start to finish!

Great tour!
The tour of Old Cairo was great! My guide Sandy was very knowledgeable and took me through the various Coptic Churches until the final Alabaster Mosque. I would highly reccommend to anyone

Horrible experience, never again
Update: I am posting this review for a second time because my original review was dismissed by the tour operator, who claimed I had not booked with them and implied my experience was not genuine, while also pointing to their many positive reviews. However, that does not change what I personally experienced. To avoid any doubt, I have attached my Expedia booking confirmation and a screenshot of the WhatsApp conversation in which they themselves sent me the TripAdvisor review link. I am simply sharing my genuine experience so future travelers can make an informed decision.
Here is my experience:
I was very disappointed with this experience because it was significantly different from what was advertised. My pickup was scheduled for 1:30 p.m., but the driver arrived around 2:00 p.m. due to traffic. Unfortunately, the tour was not extended to compensate for the delay. Instead of the advertised 4-hour tour, I was dropped back at my hotel around 5:00 p.m., with the sightseeing portion lasting only about 2.5 hours.
The itinerary stated approximately one hour at each major site, but we spent less than 40 minutes at each location and were rushed throughout the tour. I barely had enough time to appreciate the sites or take photos.
The listing also advertised an “all-inclusive” option with included tickets. In reality, only one paid entrance ticket was included, while the other sites were free to access. This was one of the reasons I chose this more expensive tour over cheaper alternatives.
The private vehicle was simply a basic economy car, not the comfortable private transportation I expected from the listing.
The only reason I am not giving one star is because the guide was excellent. She was kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely tried to improve the experience after I explained my concerns. My complaint is with the tour operator and the misleading description, not with her. I would not book this tour again unless the itinerary and duration are accurately represented.

Fantastic Tour!
We had a really fantastic time on this tour. Our tour guide, Bisho, was absolutely amazing and was so knowledgable. He was kind and gave us all the time we needed to do each thing- there was no rush at all. Our tour started off by going to visit two different churches which were beautiful in Coptic Cairo. We then went to Commercial Street to learn more about the Egyptian oils, spices, cotton and papyrus. This was then all topped off by going to see Citadel and Mohammed Ali Mosque. Honestly a breath taking experience! Finally we went to a market place. Would definitely recommend booking this tour!

¡Gran excursión!
Conseguimos ver muchas cosas en 4 horas en nuestra visita al Viejo Cairo, la Ciudadela y el zoco. Nuestro guía, Ahmed, explicó a fondo el significado histórico de los lugares que visitamos y añadió muchas anécdotas interesantes. ¡Una forma estupenda de aprender sobre la historia de El Cairo!

Un viaje fascinante a través de la rica historia de El Cairo
Tuvimos una visita excelente por el Cairo histórico y la recomendamos encarecidamente. Nuestro conductor, Maged, fue profesional, cortés e hizo que moverse por la concurrida ciudad pareciera sencillo. Nuestro guía, Ahmed, fue excepcional. Su conocimiento de la historia, la religión y la cultura de Egipto fue realmente impresionante, y dio vida a cada parada con historias y contextos fascinantes.
Visitar las iglesias, la sinagoga histórica, las magníficas mezquitas y el famoso mercado nos dio una comprensión mucho más profunda de la rica historia de El Cairo y de las diversas influencias religiosas y culturales que han dado forma a la ciudad a lo largo de miles de años. La pasión de Ahmed por compartir esa historia hizo que la experiencia fuera increíblemente educativa además de agradable.
Ahmed también fue muy atento, asegurándose de que tuviéramos tiempo para fotos, preguntas y cualquier otra cosa que necesitáramos durante el día, mientras que Maged se aseguró de que viajáramos cómodos y seguros entre cada parada.
Esta visita fue una forma maravillosa de experimentar un lado diferente de El Cairo más allá de las pirámides. Nos fuimos con una apreciación mucho mayor de la increíble historia y cultura de la ciudad. ¡Gracias a Ahmed y a Maged por hacer que fuera una experiencia tan agradable e inolvidable!

An enjoyable sightseeing trip in Cairo!
We managed to pack in a lot of things in 4 hours from Old Cairo to the Citadel and ending with a souk! Our guide, Ahmed, was knowledgeable and his stories and historical insights were fascinating - we saw and learnt a lot! Also, our driver navigated the busy roads expertly. All in all, a great tour!

Personable and knowledgeable guide
Bisho was very personable and knowledgeable. He shared his culture with warmth and answered our many questions with respect and kindness as we toured the alabaster mosque and Coptic community and churches.
