    Our guide Bishoy was absolutely amazing (professional, knowledgable, informative, kind) and this tour was a wonderful way to begin our trip to Egypt! We experienced authentic Egyptian essence perfume; learned about making paper and had our names written using ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics; shopped for jewelry and t-shirts; and visited a spice shop. We ended our tour enjoying delicious Koshary, Egypt's national dish. Many thanks to Bishoy and we absolutely recommend this tour to future travelers!

    The trip with Kareem was great, but the market was quite expensive and you can get things cheaper elsewhere, which we found out in retrospect. It is still quite an experience to see the size of this market.

    The truth was supposed to be the market, not additional side shopping that was separate from the market that our guy took us to First by the time you finish all the side shops he took us to the market. They were obviously people that he knew, and I believe he was paid separately to take us through their specific shops. We were running late for our next tour. We only had less than five minutes to walk around. And we ended up being 15 minutes late for our next tour. That is unacceptable. That’s not what we paid for!. I additionally thought that was part of the tour until I looked at the Tour aga
