DONT EAT ANYTHING THE DAY OF THIS TOUR. There is an abundance of amazing food to try. Magy is passionate about the food, the culture and the future of Cairo and Egypt! It was an absolute pleasure to spend time with an amazing guide and great human. Thanks Magy!

Absolute must do!! Magy, our guide, was fun, friendly, knowledgeable and the whole thing was seamless from start to finish. It’s a genuine ‘local’ food tour - off the beaten track, with the locals and away from the tourist hotspots. You get a real feel for Egyptian life - seeing the locals out on an evening, enjoying their meal with their families. You try soooooooo much (go hungry!) and such a wide variety and all 100% local, Egyptian foods - from breakfast items, to street food and local ‘homemade’ foods to sweet desserts and yummy drinks. Places (I certainly wouldn’t) have dared to try or even known existed without being on this tour and foods I had never heard of which were so yummy!! Altogether 100% recommended. Don’t hesitate to book : )

We had such a wonderful experience on our food tour in Cairo with Magy! She was incredibly friendly, upbeat, and genuinely excited to share her culture and introduce us to the incredible variety of Egyptian food. The tour was packed and involved quite a bit of walking, but Magy did an excellent job keeping everyone organized and making sure we got to each location smoothly. At every stop, she was also very attentive and asked if there was anything else we wanted to try. I really appreciated this flexibility. On many food tours, you’re given a set “menu” and that’s it, but Magy’s attitude was essentially, “If you want to try something else, just let me know,” and she would make it happen. That made the experience feel much more personal. There were definitely a lot of breads and carbs throughout the tasting, but there was still a great deal of variety with the different side dishes, dips, flavors, and both sweet and savory options. We got to experience foods and flavors that gave us a much better sense of everyday Egyptian cuisine and culture. I can absolutely see why this is such a popular tour. Magy brought so much energy and enthusiasm to the experience, and she clearly loves sharing another side of Cairo with visitors. We left feeling very full, happy, and like we had experienced something genuinely special. Highly recommend the tour — and especially Magy as a guide!

We had an absolutely amazing experience on this Cairo street food tour! Mila was wonderful from start to finish — friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and so much fun to be with. We tried so many foods that local Egyptians eat every day, from breakfast dishes to lunch and dinner favorites. We visited a real local food market, saw fresh butcher shops and small neighborhood restaurants, and learned so much about how people shop, eat, and live in Cairo. We also enjoyed freshly brewed Egyptian coffee, fresh sugarcane juice, hibiscus tea, and traditional Egyptian desserts, which were the perfect way to finish the tour. There was SO much food — we could barely keep eating, but somehow we still found room for dessert 😂. We love doing local food tours whenever we travel because it’s one of the best ways to understand a country, and this was truly one of our favorite experiences in Egypt. Mila made the whole tour feel personal, authentic, and special. Highly recommend her and this tour!

Our food tour in Cairo was one of the absolute highlights of our trip. We got to try an incredible variety of Egyptian food far beyond what we ever would have discovered on our own. Every stop felt authentic and thoughtfully chosen, from tiny local spots to busy street vendors full of energy and amazing smells. The amount of food was unbelievably generous, and every dish had its own story and flavor. We tried everything from freshly baked bread and savory street food to traditional desserts and drinks, and each one was delicious in a completely different way. It felt less like a tour and more like being shown around the city by a local friend who genuinely loves food and culture. If you love food and want to experience the real side of Cairo, this tour is an absolute must-do. Come hungry, you’ll taste far more than you expect, and every bite is worth it.

Amal was an outstanding guide and truly made our Cairo food tour one of the highlights of the entire trip. She is knowledgeable, personable, thoughtful, and clearly passionate about sharing Egyptian food and culture. As she took us around Cairo, she explained the history behind different foods, drinks, desserts, spices, and local traditions in a way that was engaging and easy to follow. This is not a small sampling tour, so come hungry! Amal makes sure you are well fed and absolutely gives you your money’s worth. She does not skimp at all. I did the 50-tasting tour, and you really do taste 50 different items. Amal paced the tour well, explained each stop, and made the experience feel fun rather than overwhelming. What I appreciated most was Amal’s warmth and professionalism. She asked about our tastes, took her time explaining flavors and ingredients, and never made us feel pressured to try anything we were unsure about. She was patient, flexible, and thoughtful throughout the entire experience. My younger sister decided not to attend, and Amal was even willing to conduct the tour on another day, which says a lot about her kindness and dedication. Because of Amal, we were able to visit restaurants, bakeries, juice stands, and local markets we never would have discovered on our own. Honestly, it was the best food I had during my entire trip. The mango juice was excellent, the bakeries were beautiful, and the pastries were absolutely worth the calories. She also took us to an authentic local market where we picked up peaches and olives to taste. Amal is not just a guide; she is a wonderful storyteller and host. She shared what daily life is like for a typical Egyptian, answered our questions, kept the conversation flowing, and made us laugh throughout the tour. I took this tour the day before flying home, and it was the perfect way to end my trip — exploring, learning, eating, and enjoying great company. A helpful note for anyone booking: please remember to dress conservatively, especially since you will be visiting local areas and markets. It is a great way to be respectful while fully enjoying the experience. I would absolutely book with Amal again. She is skilled, gracious, and excellent at what she does. This is a food tour everyone should experience.

We had a great time exploring Cairo with Magy. She was so welcoming and thoughtful from the start, and her personality really made the whole day feel easy and relaxed. The variety of food was impressive. We tried so many different snacks and drinks, so definitely come hungry because you'll want to taste everything. She took us into local neighborhoods that we never would have found on our own, which gave us a really authentic look at everyday life in the city. Even though we were in very local areas, we never had to worry about the food quality. Magy was super careful about where we ate and made sure everything was clean and safe. She even watched out for small things like making sure our glasses weren't washed with tap water. We’ve visited Egypt before, but this tour showed us a much deeper side of the cuisine than we’d seen as typical tourists. Magy also shared some great stories about the local customs while we walked. We’d definitely book with her again next time we’re in town. It was a fantastic experience.

The listing was not exaggerating about 40+ types of food! Come hungry! Out amazing guide led us through a couple more local areas of Cairo, which we definitely would not have explored solo. We tried examples of breakfast, lunch, and dinner foods along with assorted street foods, drinks, and desserts. Along the way, our guide taught us about the historical and cultural significance of the foods. I would absolutely take this tour again.
