Amazing experience, highly recommend! - Haidy and Raafat were amazing! Haidy was very knowledgeable and explained everything thoroughly without rushing us. I would highly recommend Haidy and Raafat. My son was sick during the tour, and both Haidy and Raafat were extremely kind to my son and were concerned with his well being.

Eman was the perfect guide , we enjoyed every minute - Eman is an Egyptian girl who has studied Spanish at university and her accent is amazing. Everything is understood perfectly, besides that it has a lot of knowledge to explain step by step the history at each moment of the tour , we were a family of 4 from Costa Rica and we recommend 100% make your visit to Egypt with it. Thank you.

A worthwhile tour to take in Cairo - It was a great tour. Cave church not something you can navigate to independently. Tour included more than expected. Roma was a very pleasant guide and Shady the calmest driver and most polite person. I would reccomend this tour.

Enjoyable, well organised and guided tour - I very much enjoyed my Old Coptic tour and the arrangements and driving went very smoothly. Emaan my guide was very thoughtful, considerate, and a great communicator! She took particular account of my needs and interests. Being a Solo traveller it was a nice touch that she took photos and shared them with me too. Thank you!
