Fun and informative guides go quickly guide you to the best old parts of Cairo - Kareem was my guide and he was incredibly knowledgeable. Mido (Vin Diesel) was my driver and was always there to take us quickly wherever we went and even changed plans quickly when I asked for different spots. This was a great tour. Many shopkeepers will give you the standard hard sell and the tour obviously has favorite places to take you but they do genuinely help get a good price. They were fun. We spoke Egyptian history, history of WWE wrestling haha. It was fun.

A great visit - I had a great visit with Ehab..My hurt knee few days prior and I didn't really think I'll make it to this visit..Ehab was very caring, kind and patient with me throughout the visit. He ensured that I took few breaks and he did not rush me..I truly appreciated it. Ehab was very knowledgeable and make sure I understood the history of each site we visited (Mosque, Synagogue, Coptic Church etc)..I was very thankful to him for the beautiful pictured he captured. Mageb was very nice and accommodating..I would recommend both for this visit.

Good company as we explore Islamic Mosques - Yesterday, Shady took us on a drive to help us explore Islamic Mosques and the Khan El Khalili market. He was very generous with sharing insights about the sights we visited even though he wasn’t our tour guide. It was a lovely experience engaging with him

An excellent tour of the Citadel and Coptic Cairo - What an excellent way to see parts of historical Cairo! Our guide, Ehad, was brilliant. He explained the history surrounding the buildings we were visiting, pointed out features we may otherwise have missed, and patiently answered all our questions. He kept the tour up at a nice pace, and it was convenient to have a car to get from place to place quickly in busy Cairo. A highly recommended tour due in great part to the incomparable Ehad.

- The travel agency was very flexible regarding the departure (afternoon instead of morning). We also had the option of a felucca, and we could have asked for a koshari for the boat ride. Our guide Ehab was very well-groomed, kind and flexible too. Shukran
