Incredible - This guided day tour was a fantastic way to explore Cairo’s rich history. The National Museum had incredible artifacts, the Citadel offered stunning views and fascinating stories, and wandering through Old Cairo felt like stepping back in time. Visiting the Cave Church was a unique and peaceful experience, giving us a glimpse into Egypt’s Christian heritage. Our guide, Mr. Sameh was knowledgeable and made the whole day smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a deep dive into Cairo’s culture and history.

Experience Cairo and learn to love it. - ES was another wonderful experience with Jasmine, who showed me everything and put in so much time and effort that you can see again that she is passionate about understanding and learning to love the culture and history of Egypt. I thank you very much Jasmine, for these wonderful days that have taken me much further in history, as well as with a beautiful memory of some of the most beautiful days in Egypt. Cairo thrives on its history and here you can hear it clearly.
