Many stories were told - This walking tour was a pleasant experience. Our guide showed us the Coptic area and the connection between the different religions present in Egypt. He guided us through the church, synagogue and mosque via stories that connected the history of Egypt. This experienced guide is a story teller and keeps you interested. He knows when to give its clients space and time for photos/free time. He knew the right time of the day when to visit the places. Only tip for the mosque: the lights were broken at the grave of the founder and deserve to be fixed to see the grave properly.

Will never forget - I got the opportunity to meet Mohamed. He was my tour guy today. He spoke very good English. He took his time to explain to me everything that I needed to know and at the same time he made the tour very comfortable because he was very helpful and a nice person. I feel very comfortable with him asking him questions regarding anything that I needed to know about Egypt thank you so much.

All thumbs up! Explore! - You couldn't ask for a better guide than Mimo! We were able to see old Cairo and go into (and on top of!) Older buildings. Mimo shared his culture with us and was very open to our myriad questions. Very knowledgeable about Egypt and gave us great guidance foe other parts of Egypt that we visited later. A truly wonderful and unique experience.
