This construction was part of the process of rebuilding started under Sultan Barquq (ruled from 1382-1399) to help the city recover from the ravages of the Black Death throughout the 13th and 14th-centuries. Today, the market has been modernized significantly, but there are still portions that display the original Mamluk style architecture, which featured great archways and vaulted ceilings.you have lunch koshry , back to hotel,

Horrible, avoid rip off.

Evening tour. First I had to wait 1 hour until the guide turned up. The English of the guide was bad, hardly understandable, even if agreed no official guide he did hardly anything more than walk along the street and help crossing the crazy traffic. I would have expected more. Instead of 4 hours, it was 2 hours or less, paid over EUR 75 for this. Far too expensive. Would not recommend to anyone. Also the site, it is just touristy. Only reason I booked a tour was that as a woman alone in theevening I felt unsafe. It was the worst experience during my whole stay in Egypt. Rip off and bad quality. Also I had to repeat everything 5 Xs meeting points etc despite having arranged per whats app long in advance.

Great visit

A big thank you to Douaa who organized us at the last minute a tour of Islamic Cairo and a shopping tour of craft shops. She was very responsive following another provider who had cancelled a visit the day before and she even arranged a transfer to the airport after the visit with Ahmad, super driver. His explanations were exciting and enlightening to better understand Cairo. We recommend!

Khan el-Khalili walking tour

We were looking for a guided tour of Khan el-Khalili Market, as we didn't want to get lost or hassled by the vendors. Hesham was very responsive to whatapp communications after booking, and Marsil, our guide was super sweet accommodating all our needs. The driver was really excellent getting us out of the chaotic traffic outside the meaket and getting us back to the hotel safely. If you are looking for a guided tour of Khan el-Khalili, Hesham is the man to talk to. He can also arrange other tours in and around Cairo.

Be aware! Not as advertised

Be aware if booking this tour. It is NOT just the Khan el-Khalili market. You will be taken to all the factories they get kick backs from and if you’re lucky you’ll get an hour at the bazar.

Khan el-Khalili Tour with Bisho

Bisho was an excellent guide and tailored our tour for our interests. He was knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor and filled in the drive time with observations about Egyptian history and culture. Our driver, Islam was professional and negotiated the sometimes crazy traffic skillfully. Highly recommend this tour guide
