It was shocking that the guide could recall such details of history! She was friendly, accommodating and generous with her time and explaining. I highly recommend her guidance. Of course Egypt is mysterious and very important in history; she made it come alive! Egypt is a great place for any level or age off traveler!

Our tour guide Mahmoud was great. He took us all around and knew his history. He took us to the major things in the museum and let us explore after. He asked what kind of things we want to see or buy at the bazaar. He took us to a cheap shop he knew for things we wanted. He asked if we wanted to see anything else or wanted free time. He always asked what we wanted to do. Also took great pictures of us. Overall great experience

Mahmoud was a great host and we had a wonderful time! Learned a lot about Egypt, life in Cairo, and the history of the country. A great way to start a trip. Thank you so much!

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The museum was so vast that we could have spent all day there and not seen the best things. Our guide Mahmood Hoka was fantastic and was able to show us the most important displays. His English is excellent and he is very knowledgeable, answering any questions we asked. He allowed us time on our own after showing us what he considered to be the best things to see. He was very pleasant to spend the day with and we were lucky enough to have him for two different tours on two consecutive days. The citadel and mosque was very interesting, the lunch on Nile Island w
