A Memorable Day with Mohamed Gaber in Cairo - Our tour with Mohamed Gaber was truly exceptional and made our day in Cairo the best of our entire trip to Egypt. His vast knowledge and passion for sharing information about the city's history and culture were unparalleled. We felt lucky to have such a skilled and friendly guide leading us through the city. Mohamed's expertise and enthusiasm made our tour both educational and enjoyable. We highly recommend booking a tour with him for an unforgettable experience in Cairo.

Three palaces - We asked the company to arrange a tailor made tour to the three palaces and ending the day with a Nile cruise. The day was well organised and everything we wanted it to be. We requested Mohamed Gabor to be our guide as he was so good on our previous tour. He did not disappoint. A fabulous last day in Cairo.

The perfect tour! - Mohamed Gaber was a great guide and was prompt, waiting for us in the lobby of our hotel. He was very knowledgable and worked well with our kids, sensing how much detail and level of pace we wanted and worked with us. He gave us so much history and background of both the sites we visited, and those along the way. The lunch spot they chose was great and felt local. He went above and beyond and got my kids snacks as well. Our driver was just as courteous and his name is Mohammed as well. You won't regeat booking this tour!

An amazing experience - An excellent tour that made for us the best day of our stay in Cairo. Our tour guide Mohamed Gaber was so knowledgeable, much more than any other tour guide that we’ve had during our trip to Egypt. Sharing information with us was clearly a passion for him. We also had a very skilled and friendly tour driver, Ezat, who safely took us to all places that we visited. Incredible tour highly recommended

Tour with Mohamed Gaber - An incredible once in a lifetime experience with Mohamed Gaber. He was punctual, kind, patient, knowledgeable, etc. I would never go to Egypt without Mr. Gaber in my corner, and I have recommended him to all my friends.
