Nice experience with Amr at Khan El Khalili. We had booked a 630pm tour on a Friday but he suggested we start at 3pm due to crowds and traffic.

We did the private bazaar tour with Ayman today and it was wonderful! We actually booked a 12:30pm tour, but had to move to a later time due our flight delay. He and the driver were very accommodating to our last minute request. We wanted a tour that gave us a “local” feel and slice of life. He took us to the bazaar and showed us shops with the best prices for souvenirs and even took us to the oldest cafe in Cairo. He was a great photographer and gave us great insight on history and culture. Ayman was friendly and we felt safe with him the whole time with him. We highly recommend this tour to
