I'm glad! - It was easier in Japanese. The guide explained a lot about Egyptian history in the car and was flexible with the schedule. He gave us brief explanations in the museum, so we were able to avoid situations where we didn't know what was going on in the large building, and we really appreciated having a guide. We were also able to choose our lunch, which was delicious. I think Egyptian food suits the Japanese palate.

Tour with the best guides - We took part in a tour of the Citadel, Mosque of Muhammad Ali, Old Cairo, and the museum. Our guide was fantastic, not only with his language skills, but also his historical knowledge and sometimes with a sense of humor. We were probably very lucky to have been shown around by such a guide. The driver was also very friendly and drove very safely. He was punctual and the communication beforehand was smooth, so we were able to enjoy a day of sightseeing in an unfamiliar city, which can be a bit worrying, with peace of mind and great fun. We are very grateful.

Engaging, enigmatic positive energies - Its incredible! Wonders of the world. It’s always nice to have an Egyptologist that can share not just his book insights but also potential theories on all the amazing mysteries. It was super engaging, kind, witty and respectful. I highly recommend using them and try to get Ayman as your guide. I can’t thank him enough for making our time so enjoyable and we were in a bit of a rush and covered a lot of ground. They were very flexible and the restaurant selection was phenomenal as well. It’s super nice to have a private driver as well. It was convenient and hassle free. I would highly recommend bringing a fan or some sort of cooling device for one of the museums which isn’t air conditioned. Highly recommend this tour operator.
