Great experience with Rafat in Cairo - Rafat was the best driver going throughout Cairo! Would request him if you book this tour. The visit to the Islamic mosques was truly awe-inspiring — the intricate architecture and peaceful atmosphere made it a spiritual experience. Exploring Coptic Cairo was equally amazing. Walking through ancient churches and narrow streets gave a deep sense of history and culture. The blend of art and tradition there was unforgettable. The Bazaar was the perfect way to end the day, immersing ourselves in the vibrant local life. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting an enriching and memorable cultural journey!

Private Tour of Cairo - Our first time in Egypt and we decided to take a shopping tour of Khan el-Khalili market and surrounding areas. Our guide Eman was phenomenal. He took us to places of papyrus, perfumes, spices and other purely Egyptian things. I highly recommend it if you come to Cairo.

Very Knowledgeable Insight - Ehab had an extensive knowledge of the churches and mosques of Cairo together with the history of Egypt as a whole. This private Tour was well worth it.

Coptic Cairo - We had such a nice time with Eman. She spent the day showing us so many historical sites such as the hanging church and cave church. Also we had a wonderful time at the Khan-Khalili market.

Good tour but a little long - Tour was good, Ehab was our guide and Mostafa our driver. Both were friendly, knowledgeable and patient. The tour was for four hours but did go a little longer than anticipated, I think this was due to some shopping breaks which we weren't sure were part of the itinerary, it would have been better to do those last and offered as an option as it was very hot and it was a long time for our daughter. The sites themselves were very impressive.

Great tour with an extra stop - I purchased the tour with just a guide and driver. Both the driver and guide were great, I had a great day with them. The second place we stopped was a row of several shops, which were not part of the itinerary. I was brought to a perfume shop, spice shop, gold shop, and Egyptian cotton shop where I was given a pitch at each place. I ended up buying a few things but the prices were overall very high. We then went on our way through the rest of the tour as listed on the itinerary. The pace at the market, which was the last stop, was very quick. I would recommend this tour but recommend telling the guide you do not want to stop at the shops. It is best to simply wait for shopping at the market where the prices are lower.
