Private Shopping Tour - My tour guide Hamad was very helpful and knowledgeable. I felt very safe as he showed me the different sites during my private tour. I did not feel pressured to buy things or rush. He had great recommendations and tips for shops to go to and avoid. He gave an interesting history of the mosques we visited and of Al-Moez Street. Highly recommend this for a quiet and organized shopping trip.

A truly lovely experience - This tour was one of the highlights of my time in Cairo. Mahmoud was an excellent tour guide—extremely knowledgeable, kind, and someone who made me feel safe throughout the entire experience. I learned so much about the history, local cuisine, and the architecture of the markets across different eras.

I recommend it! - I recommend this tour if you want to go quietly and with recommendations by the Cairo bazaar, to do your shopping. The guide Mostafa helped us a lot, is very friendly and speaks perfectly Spanish. He was telling us about the city and answering our doubts. Thank you Mostafa. It's been a pleasure!

Great. - A great experience. Fully recommended. You feel very safe from the first moment. In addition to showing us the most beautiful and interesting corners he has explained the whole history of the place but in a very pleasant way. Mohamed Italiano has been very close friendly and pleasant. Too bad I found out last day. Thank you.

Great tour with mustafa - My experience in Cairo with our guide Mustafa was absolutely exceptional. He speaks excellent Spanish, which made the entire tour easy, comfortable, and very enjoyable. From the moment we started, Mustafa showed incredible knowledge about Egypt’s history, culture, and hidden stories that you won’t find in books.
He took us to the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the most iconic spots in Cairo, always explaining everything in a clear and engaging way. He was patient, friendly, and always ready to answer questions. What I appreciated the most was how he adapted the tour to our pace and preferences, making sure we had the best experience.
Another great point is that Mustafa knows the best places for photos, local food, and trustworthy shops. Thanks to him, we felt safe and well taken care of the entire time.
I highly recommend booking your Cairo tour with Mustafa. If you want a knowledgeable, professional, and Spanish-speaking guide who will make your trip unforgettable, he’s the perfect choice.

Excellent Cairo Tour with Mostafa Mabrouk - My tour in Cairo was absolutely unforgettable, thanks to our exceptional guide, Mostafa Mabrouk. From the very beginning, Mostafa demonstrated deep knowledge, professionalism, and genuine passion for Egypt’s rich history. He speaks both Spanish and English, which made the experience even smoother and more enjoyable for everyone in our group.
Mostafa explained every site with clarity and enthusiasm, making ancient stories come to life right before our eyes. We visited the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, the Egyptian Museum, and Khan El Khalili, and he made sure we understood both the historical facts and the cultural context behind each place. His communication skills are excellent, and he was always patient with our questions, providing thoughtful and detailed answers.
What stood out the most was his warm personality. He is well-mannered, kind, and incredibly attentive, always ensuring that each person felt comfortable and engaged throughout the tour. He also offered great recommendations for local food, photo spots, and hidden gems that only a true local expert would know.
If you’re planning a trip to Cairo, I highly recommend booking a tour with Mostafa Mabrouk. He turned a great trip into an extraordinary experience. Truly one of the best guides I’ve ever had.

Great experience - This was an amazing tour and we were so glad we booked it. I did this tour with my two daughters: aged 6 and 14. Mohammed was so wonderful with both of them, engaging them in conversation and asking them what they wanted to see/do. My teen was very focused on buying gifts for her friends back home and Mohammed made sure she found each thing on her list, even managing to find a store with the Scarab earrings she was hunting for. We really enjoyed learning about the history of the area and visiting a mosque. Amazing trip!
