- Karim was the best guide! He and Mustafa took us all around Cairo. Karim has an excellent level of Spanish and was very happy to explain everything to us. The buffet was delicious and insightful as to the typical food in Egypt. He took us to local spots and gave us great recommendations too. Mustafa was a great and joyful driver. Overall an amazing tour if you want to learn more about the old and modern life in Cairo. If you have a chance, definitely ask for Karim and Mustafa!

A Day of Living History – Expertly Guided by Mohamed Gelal - I had an incredible day exploring the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization and the Citadel of Saladin, all thanks to our amazing guide, Mohamed Gelal. His deep knowledge of Egyptian history, combined with his passion for sharing it, brought every artifact and site to life in such a fascinating way. At the museum, Mohamed guided us through the different eras with such clarity, making the experience both educational and memorable. At the Citadel, his storytelling painted a vivid picture of the lives of those who once ruled from its towers. He was patient, engaging, and made sure we understood the historical significance of every place we visited. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to experience Egypt’s rich heritage in a meaningful and enjoyable way. Mohamed Gelal truly made it unforgettable!

Historic Egypt in June - It was a great trip. Our guide was very knowledgeable and explained the entire Egyptian history in the context of artifacts and architecture. He planned enough breaks in between the different sites to give us break from the wrath of Sun God Ra!!!
