Good fast trip of the highlights of Cairo. If you've got one day see to it all, this is your trip. If you've got more time you can spend a day in the museum and a day at the market.

We had an amazing time on our guide Khaled. He was very well versed in Egyptian history and attentive to our needs on the tour. The Hanging church, perfume shop, and Egyptian Museum were some of my favorite places I've visited in Cairo. Lunch was tasty and the selection was wide. Khaled was very good at keeping us from getting overwhelmed by vendors in the bazaar and helping us haggle for a good price. I would tour with them again in a heartbeat.

Amazing, fascinating, and entirely enjoyable. Our guide Mahmood Ahmed was excellent, knowledgeable, and very cultured. He took his time out to explain the various facets and facts of each individual site - its history, culture, and people and ho they built these beautiful architectures. The time for the tour was ample and we had a great shopping experience at the Khan market. All in all I would recommend this trip and Mahmood Ahmed as the guide for anyone visiting Egypt.

The Egyptian Museum deserves a full day but with limited time... our guide gave us 3 hours of the highlights. You have to pay extra for the King Tut Treasure Room well worth it and Mummy Room depends on your interest. The Mosque and Hanging Church were Holy Family hid were great. You can skip the Bazaar for more time at the Museum.

Manar Atwa was fabulous! She was knowledgeable about all the sites and the customer service was incredible. She assisted me in purchasing items by informing me of a good price and took me to locations to obtain the items. The tour was great and I highly recommend it to everyone!

The tour guide was not speaking in a culturally appropriate manner. The tour itself is overcharged compared to the service provided, even taking into account that the entrance fees and lunch was included. The buffet lunch was not in a great restaurant or location. We also felt very rushed and didn't have time to go through the areas we wanted. I would not recommend this tour.
