Great shopping and bazar tour - Kareem and Islam were fantastic. I had a great day exploring the bazars and streets of Cairo. Kareem was a great shopping guide as well. Bought quality Egyptian cotton, papyrus and essential oils. They are all dollar priced though!

Fun Tour - The guide was the best! He was very helpful and led the way through the crowded bazaar… making sure we saw authentic goods and foods, not the ‘made in China’ goods. We enjoyed the Egyptian lunch as well.
