Cairo experience. - For our last visit to Cairo we once again had the best guide, our dear Mostafa. He once again showed us how competent he is at his job and how caring he is with his customers. I have recommended it before and I still recommend it. If you want to have an unforgettable experience, don't hesitate to ask.

absolutely best experience - Folks, I has a customized private day with Omar, who is on top of very knowledgable but very talented in various aspects about the country, the cities and people around the pyramids. You will have story that a normal tour guy will not able to tell you, He went extra miles to accomodate customer needs. For those who love picture, he is the right person, so what are you waiting for> Our tour is accompanied by Muhammad Mouka, one of the best driver, i have ever met, nice car and friendly on top of that. He droves safely and knew well the complexity of Cairo. FYI i have been in Egypt 7x, but learning to know new things with the Team...Reach our to both for help/support!

An unforgettable trip to Cairo - It was my first time in Egypt and Cairo, and I was overwhelmed by the greatness of this ancient civilization. Also, my guide Mona checked my birthday, which I had forgotten, and congratulated me. Not only that, but after lunch, she prepared a birthday cake as a surprise to celebrate my birthday. It was an unforgettable memory of Egypt. Thank you, Mona!
