Menna has been out guide both for the pyramids as well as Christian/Islamic Cairo tours. She was brilliant and made our tour memorable. Her and our driver Mr. Walid were both professionals and highly recommended.

nous avons été impressionnés par l’âge des bâtiments , leur bon état de conservation et leur historique. Le chauffeur était ponctuel et le guide connaissant. Le repas du midi aurait pu être de meilleur qualité et le guide aurait pu éviter de proposer des activités hors programme (déjà chargé ) qui entraînent des frais supplémentaires.
