Excellent, a must do!
If you do one thing in Cairo, choose this tour.
Ahmed was amazing! So friendly and we learnt so much not just about food, but about Egypt and Cairo too.
We did several different food stops, all local places we wouldn’t have found as a tourist. We were very lucky to be the only ones on the tour. We tried so many different local foods, our favourites were the Falafel 😍
Thank you Ahmed for a great evening, it was a real highlight of our trip.

Great local food tour
We really enjoyed the food tour with Ahmed and his wife. My wife, 11 year old daughter and I did the tour together. My wife and daughter are both vegetarian and Ahmed was able to accommodate us. We multiple stops for street food, juice, and dessert. None of the places were spots we could have found on our own. We did this tour on the last day of our trip. I really wish we would have done it on the first because it really helped us understand the local neighborhood better. I will be recommending Ahmed to any of my friends traveling to Cairo.

Food and Culture
This is not only a food tour but also very cultural. We've been in local resteraunts we would never have dreamt of eating in. Ahmed was excellent and gave lots of information about Egyotian way of life.

Cairo street food
The trip was great :) 😊 everybody enjoyed the selection of dishes. We were in three local restaurants and a juice bar with sugar cane juice press and a dessert spot. I have never eaten so much in my entire life!

Tremendous Insider's Look at the Tastes of Cairo
To echo the sentiments of others, there is almost no way you will go wrong with this tour.
Ahmed is a gracious host / representative for his city and land and has, without giving away all the secrets and surprises, concocted a charming trip through the streets of Cairo... all the while exploring in perhaps the greatest way possible... by way of our stomach!
The outing is stitched together in a most thoughtful way and includes several awesome surprises along the way.
Cannot recommend this experience and the folks associated with it enough. Make sure to arrive hungry! You won't be disappointed.

Great Family Local Experience!
This was a great experience! What a great way to experience Cairo and the local cuisine.
First off the communication from Ahmed and Shorouk was great. They stayed in touch from the time of the booking all the way through the tour.
They were amazing hosts. Their knowledge of their city and food were top notch. They also have great energy and genuinely came off as loving what they do.
We met Ahmed, Shorouk and their 2 daughters at a juice bar in downtown Cairo and from there we visited several local food spots. They were very accommodating to our group of 4 as a couple of us are vegetarian. One of the highlights was a visiting a local falafel joint where they showed us how they make the falafels from scratch and then we got to enjoy the fresh, warm, crispy, tasty falafels.
We were full at the end of the tour and had to start splitting our food because of how full we were. Everything was really good! Would recommend this tour if you are staying in Cairo!

Fantastic food tour!
Not all tours are created equal. It’s only as good as the tour guide. Ahmed and Souk have carefully chosen places known by locals. I was lucky to have a solo tour with Ahmed. Every place we went, he was welcomed like family. He was genuine, friendly and generous.
I had an amazing experience. He was knowledgeable and good humoured. I highly recommend this tour just to meet him.
