Beautiful tour to discover the ancient and modern history of Egypt - Sherif guided us through the streets of Cairo perfectly. After the wonderful visit to the Egyptian Museum, during which he made us retrace millennia of history through the wonderful finds we continued to the Khan el Khalili bazaar and the visit of a beautiful Mosque right next to the Bazaar. During the visit Sherif told us many interesting aspects of Muslim culture in Egypt. Sherif speaks perfect Italian and uses every moment of the day to introduce visitors to the history and culture of the place.
