1 day tour of Cairo - The experience in Cairo has been very good, mainly in terms of visits to the Egyptian Museum, the Citadela and the Mosque of Muhammad Ali, where our guide Mariam has made us the experience totally enriching., also special mention to our driver Mimo, who has been punctual, respectful and has given us security throughout the route. Lunch was very nice in a very nice place. Personally the only thing that would have changed is the visit to the Jewelry Store, that of the papyrus and essences have been of our interest, but other travelers may not find it so interesting. Finally we have requested to be dropped off at the airport and again they have met with great punctuality. In these tours much of the experience is done by the Guide and the driver, in our case has been very good and we would repeat. So our experience is recommended.

What a day - Did the Egyptian Museum with Ahmed and it was an amazing experience, very informative and made sure we seen what we wanted to see. Most impressive was the mask of Tutankhamun - but all of it was definitely worth seeing. An amazing day all over. Was very busy at the museum but he made sure to keep with us and that we still got to see everything

Wonderful experience - There's so much to see in the Egyptian museum, so much history in there, although tut's items obviously are the biggest attraction, there's so much more to see including the silver coffin which we really liked. We also visited Khan el khalili, which Ahmed helped us navigate the crowd and found us the best shops to go to, had he not been there I'm sure I would have been lost within 5 seconds! We also visited the Citadel, it's such a beautiful place, it's sort of a hidden gem for tourists
