My family and I enjoyed the tour with Muhammad. He was really informative and understanding in terms of giving us information about Egyptian history. He also helped us shopping too. He also tells the best places to eat as well. He's an asset to the agency and would look forward to working with him again.

The best part about this amazing tour was our guide - Sam! He made all the difference. What I loved is that he didn’t just give facts - he gave us the story of it and made it very interesting and brought this ancient history to life. Also he did it with a smile and humor. He went above and beyond for us and this was during Ramadan where he was fasting and it literally was 105 in Cairo. I plan on going back to Cairo and my first request will be if Sam is available.

Excellent!! We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 day excursion in Cairo. Nour was a great guide. She was very educated on all of the sites we visited and made sure we saw everything there was possible to see at each location. They were also very accommodating to our need to sleep in an hour more or go to any extra places that we wanted to see. Throughout the trips we made stops at several little stores (this is a part of their companies guidelines), where they try to sell you overpriced items. No problem at all, you can go in and politely decline as many times as needed. We had lunch both days at very nice restaurants, the food was delicious, (you will only need to pay for your drinks... very cheap). The driver was also great, they both made us feel very welcomed and comfortable throughout the excursion. Would definitely recommend this package for anyone who wants to explore the most important and historical areas in Cairo.
