Perfect tour to take before our G Adventures Best of Egypt trip. Our guide, Mo, picked us up at our hotel in the morning along with a skilled driver and photographer, Abdo. We enjoyed a day of excellent and authentic Egyptian food. We ate a giant breakfast at one location, coffee at another (I'm not a coffee drinker but I loved their coffee with milk and sugar), and then made our way to an out of this world roof top bar (I recommend the strawberry smoothie) with a view off the pyramids that will take your breath away. And that was only half the day! The rest of the day we enjoyed more food and

The view of the pyramits of Giza on the roof of a restaurant where I had the lunch was amazing. The lunch was good, and also the breakfast we had before at another place.

We had so much fun with this tour. Sugar Queen and her driver showed us around town and the best food in town, all with friendly positive energy. She’s knowledgeable and lots of fun. We really enjoyed the hospitality of all the people we interacted with. Great experience for first timer like us. The rooftop restaurant (Hayat) at the end of the tour has a killer view of the pyramids and sphinx and wonderful grilled meat. Great way to end the day. Highly recommended.

Boogie will try to pace your eating but everything is so delicious you can expect to love it all. The morning starts with a "breakfast" of treats and eats, you'll get a bit of history in addition to your culinary experience. You'll stop in and sit with locals at a coffee house (yes, you

Suger (sic) Queen was outstanding. Great knowledge and sense of humour and she seemed to know some of the best places to eat. We had a lot of varied dishes and had to skip dinner! You best come hungry.

I requested Sugar Queen as my guide for this food tour. She is amazing, funny, and knowledgeable, she’s great to be the guide for this tour. She knows many restaurant owners as well. The foods were delicious, unique, and interesting. I highly recommend her and this tour.
