Great tour - Hussam has so much knowledge of all history concerning Egypt. The sights were really great, every mosque and church had its own character and charm

Coptic/Islamic Cairo - Super nice guide who gave us a lot of explanations about the origins of the city and Islam. Everywhere he told us something first and then let us walk around and take pictures ourselves. Especially in Khan al kalili he has guided us well. He has given us many tips for restaurants and tours!

Ahmed Hamed and Hamada made this tour a once in a lifetime experience - Let me start by saying five stars aren’t enough, so I’m raising the bar for Ahmed; here’s five more ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ahmed had guided us once previously, so I already knew he’s fluent in English and was incredibly knowledgeable about the historical Egyptian dynasties, pyramids, and tombs, but he blew me away on this tour.
I learned so much, because he really took the time to sit us down periodically to explain how the historical/cultural/spiritual threads tied together between what we just saw with what we were about to see. And he made it fun!
Of course there is no denying that these are magical places, that have spanned millennia, but it felt like we had backstage passes to the show.
His associate Hamada was a fun addition to the troupe and getting around these places , to optimize the experience that much easier.
We’d tour again with them in a heartbeat, so like I said, TEN stars

A tour definitely worth going on. Historic significance is mind boggling. Tour guide Ali was great! - Very interesting and comprehensive tour of Coptic Cairo. Tour guide Ali Nagoya was a wealth of information. He gave us many details at each location. He arrived at the hotel 20 minutes early to be sure he was on time. He had a very proficient driver with him who maneuvered us easily through Cairo’s traffic.

Well coordinated and thoroughly knowledgeable guide and driver. - My guide was Ola - she was extremely knowledgeable, well coordinated, well paced and delightful. We covered all our itinerary and more. Our driver was Hazem, who kept us safe and made good time to our destinations. I would recommend both and this tour.

Full day Coptic and Islamic Cairo - Our guide was VERY knowledgeable, he and the driver were on time to hotel pickup and were very friendly explaining the day, etc. Our guide talked most of the day as we were driving to each stop, explaining many things about Egypt, etc. Which we appreciated. He also was very good about answering any questions. However, we did feel a little bit rushed, especially as we approached the end of the tour - even though we thought we had booked an all day tour, we were done around 1:30. Thinking back, we should have said something, but we didn’t want to be rude as we also realize it was Ramadan etc. Possibly they shouldn’t offer all days during this time. Also, we thought bottled water was included, but it was not provided. Seemed minor at the time, but as we went on more tours on this trip, the water turned out to be very much appreciated as it was unusually hot there for this time of year.
