This tour exceeded our expectations in every way. We booked this tour for the same day (within hours!) that we arrived in Egypt. This was THE perfect way to kick off our week long Egypt adventure. Our tour guide Adam is a truly wonderful person, INCREDIBLY knowledgeable, passionate about the culture, and taught us so much about the history. You can tell he has truly dedicated his life to sharing this incredible history with the rest of the world. We could not have asked for a better day or a better guide. He made us feel like friends for life, and also made us fall in love with this city!!!

The tour is fine if you have little time to devote to Cairo. The guide, on the other hand, provided scant explanations. In addition, he took us to a shop for papyrus tourists in which he pressured us to buy telling us that it was 20 euros for us, insisting to buy and alluding to the good prices there was (a scam).

Very nice day of visit between the citadel, the museum of civilization and the bazaar. The driver perfectly adhered to the schedule and schedule, the car was comfortable and we were comfortable throughout the journey. Even if we had chosen only a driver and not a guide, he gave us some useful info, good tips and tricks to make the most of it. Serious and pleasant organization, we highly recommend!

Fatimah did an amazing job!! She was incredibly knowledgeable and did such a great job teaching us and explaining all of the history. She was also really engaging, charismatic, and fun to be around. She also picked out a great place for lunch. I highly recommend Fatimah and would absolutely do a tour with her again.
