The Coptic Quarter tour in Cairo was visually stunning and intellectually fascinating. The Hanging Church, built on the Babylon Fortress, is architecturally interesting with its “boat” structure. Another highlight was the Ben Ezra Synagogue with its religious history of being a sanctuary for the Holy Family. Our local guide, Ehab Guid, was very knowledgeable and skillfully guided us through the narrow streets as well as provided an excellent understanding of the Christian and multicultural history Egypt. I highly recommend.

BisHoo was our guide, and the tour was outstanding because of him. He went into great detail and provided in-depth knowledge, and was always happy to answer questions. We were very happy to have chosen this tour.

This was a very nice tour. We had booked with a different company in advance and they never showed or message us the day of. We were able to book this tour same day for the afternoon. Selvi our guide and George the driver were great. Selvi was very kind and flexible with us. We got to go to all the sites and do a little shopping. The perfume store we were taken to this time was more reasonably priced. The communication overall with this tour company was outstanding. They texted me right after booking it, informed me of the guide’s name and if there were any changes

The tour itself (when it started) was really good: the guide was very knowlegable, gave very good explanations and tried to make the best from this experience. We were slightly late but guide did his best so that we could see everything. The only bad thing about this tour was its organisation - I had to travel one hour (out of four) till the beginning of the tour and not because my hotel was that far, but because of strange tour organizing. We travelled with the driver to pick the guide from his previous location and than moved back to starting point. It took one hour which was very unpleasant
