Reviews
I was hosting a tour in Cairo, and the participants went on this tour. It was five American women, and they came back, absolutely raving about it. They had fun, loved the Tour Guide, and loved all the food. Was a great way for them to try local foods, see downtown, all with a Tour Guide!
It was my first time with them and for sure it won't be my last time. I tried the food walking tour in the beautiful downtown in city of Cairo with my family and friends and we all loved it.. The guide, the food & the walk through the hidden gems of the city was simply amazing.. We ended our walk on a famous café for dessert and tea with mint.. It was one of the best tours I've ever had and the best way to know more about the country. Thank you ☺️👌👌

You will taste and walk a lot on this trip, and you won't be able to resist one more bite. My favorite food t
Eravamo titubanti per via del cibo che poteva non essere totalmente sicuro, ma la guida c’ha rassicurato subito spiegandoci che saremmo andati in posti controllati e totalmente sicuri, e così è stato. Il tour è perfetto, la nostra guida, Nouritta, è stata eccezionale, simpatica, disponibile, gentile, ci ha offerto da bere, ci ha accompagnato dove volevamo se avevamo qualche richiesta particolare. È stata fantastica: il che ha reso l’esperienza dieci volte piu bella. È un tour per chi vuole autenticità, provare pasti locali in modo sicuro, e vivere il vero cairo con il casino delle strade, il c
