Fabulous tour guide and an amazing tour of Cairo - Mostafa Nabil is incredibly knowledgeable and provided an excellent tour of not only the Madrassa of Sultan Hassan but added highlights of the Citadel, Coptic Church, and garbage city. I would highly recommend him as well as the private tour. Mostafa tailors the tour to what you are interested in.

Flexible and Fun - Our guide was Mostafa Nabil. After meeting him at the time appointed we arranged for a good day which included The Citadel and Khan el Khalili. Mostafa's English is excellent with little accent, and he proved an excellent conversationalist. I would definitely hire him again.

This experience was very poor and not what we were hoping for.</p>

What went wrong! - Very dissatisfied! No one arrived to pick us up. No one answered the contact number and 24 hours later, we still have no replies to the text messages that we sent through that contact system. Our money of course was taken in advance. Something else to sort out when we get home. We did the trip at short notice with another provider and enjoyed it very much.
