The best way to get to know Cairo - From the hand of Doma everything turned out impeccable!! Not only is he a guide with great knowledge about Egyptology, but he is also a great person, a warm company, always well prepared so that I could get the best out of my stay in Cairo. He organized a fabulous tour for me, with time for everything from taking photos to taking a camel ride through the pyramids! Everything was magical. A great day, 100% recommended. Especially if you need a person who speaks perfect Spanish, Doma is the one!

Fabulous guide and wonderful experience - We saw so much of Cairo during this day. In the morning, the Citadel mosque, St Mary’s, St George’s and a synagogue in Coptic Cairo followed by lunch in a local fast food place and then shopping in the Khan-el-Khalili market complete with a stop at a coffee shop. We learnt a lot about the city both historical and modern with our wonderful guide Michael and his trusty driver Mr Hassan. The day was such good value and we’d never have managed all this on our own. We delayed the museum to the following day and combined it with a felucca ride that we wanted to do. We appreciated the flexibility and spacing out the experiences worked well. Many thanks from Sandy Mary Dan and Chris ‘Ed Sheeran’
