Reviews

Booked this tour before another tour...
Anita T, 12-10-2016

Booked this tour before another tour started and my group thoroughly enjoyed this tour with Michael. He was prompt in picking us up from our hotel, started right into the tour, and gave us history and culture throughout the tour. He was willing to answer our questions and was even kind enough to let us obtain picture of the Nile with the city in the background. This tour is perfect with the inclusions, the amount of time, the sites, etc. I'd recommend this trip for sure. My group and I want to thank you Michael for being our great tour guide!

Great tour!

We had the best time on this tour with Mimo! We had him for the tour the day before which was a full 8 hour tour of the pyramids and around Cairo. He’s very knowledgeable and can help you out with anything around the town!! Loved it.

We had an amazing trip with Pheobe, our guide who was an excellent presenter of coptic churches in Cairo. I fully recommend the tour and also the agency so for those who wants to see the live christianity you have to see this. Thanks a lot for the excellent time! The driver was the best driver I’ve ever see. In my life.

Everything was excellent with this tour company. Our guide was knowledgeable, the sites were gorgeous, and the koshary lunch was delicious. We were taken care of by Ashraf who helped us schedule and coordinate our tour, and he was very accommodating. I would recommend this place to anyone.
