Amazing experience - Let me tell you about my incredible experience with Egypt Life Tours on a shopping tour in Cairo. This adventure was unforgettable because of the unique opportunities to witness and learn about different crafts. The papyrus making was fascinating, as was watching locals create stunning fragrances during perfume-making. The carpet-making factory was remarkable with the intricate designs and colors the weavers crafted by hand. I was blown away by the skill and effort of creating each piece of jewelry at the market, and the cotton gallery was simply picturesque. Egypt Life Tours immersed me in different aspects of Cairo's culture and history. I cannot recommend them enough!!!
