Perfect tour - I am really satisfied and speechless for this fantastic tour to Cairo. They picked us up and the guide Shreif, an Egyptian who speaks perfect Italian showed us the beauty of the place in a unique way. If I recommend it!!! Obviously I tell you yes and advice would seek the guide Shreif, polite boy, nice, courteous, honest and reliable. It's a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ tour.

Unforgettable Cairo Experience - The tour of the Citadel, Mosque of Muhammad Ali, and Khan El Khalili Bazaar in Cairo was amazing, thanks to my incredible guide, Mohamed. His deep knowledge of Egyptian history and culture made the experience both educational and unforgettable. The Citadel was a highlight, with its stunning architecture and panoramic views of the city. Mohamed's storytelling of the history of the fortress and the iconic mosque was quite interesting, helping me appreciate its significance in Egypt's past. At the Khan El Khalili Bazaar, Mohamed guided me through the lively and colorful market, ensuring I didn’t miss any hidden gems. His tips on bargaining and local customs made shopping fun and stress-free. From start to finish, Mohamed was friendly, professional, and attentive, tailoring the tour to my interests and answering all my questions. If you're visiting Cairo, this tour with Mohamed is an absolute must!

Excellent tour - The tour with Yahya (the tour guide) was exceptional. The energy and attitude of both the tour guide and the driver play a crucial role in shaping the entire experience, and both demonstrated outstanding customer service. Regarding the tour itself: Yahya, a qualified Egyptologist, is deeply knowledgeable about history and passionate about sharing it. The tour covers all the key sites necessary for a comprehensive cultural experience of Egypt. As a bonus, Yahya even included an additional stop to visit the first mosque ever built. I highly recommend this tour—it’s absolutely worth it!
