Best tour for Cairo/Giza - You can book this tour with your eyes closed ! I am a frequent solo female traveler and have done some tours in the past. This one was the best ever ! Special thanks to my guide and driver M. Salib who made this experience unforgettable. He showed me more places then what was initially planned and has been very understanding and accommodating with my timings. He also has a great knowledge of the magnificent Egypt history he will be able to answer all your questions!

A must in Cairo! - I spent a great day with Salib. He gave me a lots of details about the history of the places we visited and he has always been with me during the tour giving me the right suggestions with local people. He also added a couple of nice places not expected as the papiro factory and the Mosque of Al-Azhar. I'm very happy for this experience. Thanks Salib and hope to arrange another tour with you!

Most incredible day - What an amazing day with Salib! If you are in Cairo and want to check all the boxes, this is the tour! Salib was extremely friendly and has a deep knowledge about this amazing city. We started with the Giza pyramids and the sphinx, where we took a camel ride and had several great photo opportunities. We then strolled through the Egyptian museum and learned so much thanks to Salibs unbelievable history knowledge. From there we stopped and had THE BEST falafel ever, before walking through Khan El-khalili Bazaar, where Salib gave us more history about the area. Felt very safe the whole time with Salib and our driver. Would highly recommend this activity if you are in Cairo. 10/10!
