Awesome!! - Our tour thru Old Cairo was amazing!! There were 4 of us in the group and our guide, Rana, was awesome. So was the driver (sorry I don’t remember his name). One in our party had some limitations walking but Rana was able to get a wheelchair in the museum and golf cart at the Citadel to help him get about with the rest of us so he didn’t miss a thing. Her patience was much appreciated and knowledge of the sites was spot on. Then at the Khalili market she had time with us to do some shopping. It was so fun. She really made the day happen for us.

Perfect day at the Citadel and army museum.Oct22 - Thank you so much Michel, our trip to the Citadel & army museum was just perfect.
You made it interesting and fun even for my 2 boys 7&9yo.
Your English is impeccable.
As a woman traveling alone with my kids you made me feel very comfortable in your presence.
Really appreciated how sociable but still discreet you were.
The cherry on the top was all those brilliant tricks you taught us to have perfect Instagramable pictures.
We will never forget this trip, thanks to you.
You are 5⭐ all the way.
