Thank You Adel - This is my second review for Adel’s services, as I enjoyed the first tour I took with him so much that I followed it up another day with the Egyptian museum and Coptic Cairo tour as well. Adel was kind enough to arrive early for this second day so that we could take full advantage of everything there was to offer, also taking my travel schedule into account. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better guide to gain exposure to Egyptian history and culture than Adel. I want to reemphasize that this was my second tour with him in two days (both during the tail end of Ramadan) and it really just shows his commitment to what I believe he considers his guests and friends, not just customers. The Egyptian museum is so large that again, a guide is needed, and Adel was willing to essentially customize the experience - even attempting to find a specific type of animal mummified that I was looking for (I did not ask for this, he just picked up on it in conversation and wanted to make sure if it was there that I saw it). Very patient, clear, and thorough with all aspects of this tour. We ran into multiple other guides who commended him and it really shows the kindness and authenticity of the Egyptian people, but Adel in particular. Before you choose a random tour like I did (I just happened to be lucky enough to stumble into this one), please first consider going with Adel 🙏

Fabulous! - Adel was a warm, professional, extremely knowledgeable guide. He really brought the ancient artefacts of Cairo to life and was able to answer any question that was thrown at him. I will recommend Adel to my friends and family and wish him well in his ongoing work promoting the importance of our understanding of this ancient civilisation.

A Pleasant Tour - The driver picked us up on time in a clean comfortable van with AC. The tour of the Coptic churches and the museum was thorough and unhurried. The guide was patient and experienced, spoke excellent English and was very knowledgable about the city and the places we visited. He took great care of us, and explained the history behind the precious pieces of art in the museum. He made sure we were happy with the tour, that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. This was one of the better tours we had during our time in Cairo. I would recommend it because the tour met our expectations, and was conducted with ease and comfort.

Trip to Cairo, Egypt - Adel was an amazing guide. He was patient, friendly and knowledgeable and made our trip to Cairo more fun…from the moment his team picked us up from our hotel to all of the sites on our itinerary. I highly recommend him.

Historic Cairo - Had a wonderful tour of Coptic Cairo and the Egyptian Museum with a side trip to two historic and important mosques with Adel. He was so knowledgeable on the history of Cairo and ancient Egypt and patiently answered my constant questions. I highly recommend this tour with him.
