Great day with Sabry visiting various ancient Mosques and Churches in Cairo. He was very informative and we came away with a much better understanding of the history of Cairo and Egypt. We also spent some time wandering through the Grand Market. All in all well planned and enjoyable.

The city is great with many things to see and barter for. One bit of advice. If as a passager if you have a weak heart just be prepared because driving in Cairo, especially the highways, is considered a sport
"Thank you so much for the review and for sharing your experience! We are glad you enjoyed exploring the vibrant sights and market bargaining in Cairo. Your advice about the traffic is spot-on and gave us a good laugh—driving here is definitely an adventurous sport! Navigating Cairo's chaotic highways requires serious skill, which is exactly why we always provide professional, experienced local drivers to handle the roads so our guests can just sit back and enjoy the ride.

Heba was an absolutely wonderful guide. She was friendly, knowledgeable, funny and very experienced. We had a very enjoyable morning touring the old Coptic churches and mosques in Cairo, as well as a brief visit to the Citadel of Saladin. We also stopped at a nice little restaurant in the heart of the old bazaar (not included but definitely worth it).
Very good tour to see and learn more about Coptic and Islamic Cairo. Our tour guide Manar was very welcoming, organised, and knowledgeable.

Sabry and our driver were a great team! We went to the Citadel, Garbage City, and park. Sabry was full of information and took our questions head-on. We learned a lot from him and as we were eager to learn, he was equally eager to share his knowledge. Seeing two very different sides of Cairo made for a very fulfilling experience. I highly recommend!
