Had a wonderful evening with Hanan. She is absolute perfection as a guide in Cairo and all of Egypt.
We had such a fantastic evening with Hanan. She was such a great guide. She just took us to the Cairo Tower and then she took us to the papyrus Museum where we were able to see how papyrus was made. Such beautiful artwork. She was delightful and very well versed in Cairo history and culture. Would definitely use her again.

Great guide on a beautiful evening with first look at the Pyramids!
Hanan and our driver took us on a great evening tour of Cairo including Cairo Tower, some shopping and a stop at a hotel rooftop bar with a spectacular view of the Pyramids. Amazing way to end our first day in Egypt! Thank you Hanan!

Good driver and very nice guide. We saw a lot and got a lot of information. He even gave us some tips about our upcoming visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum.
He bought us drinks at Cairo Tower and an ice cream. No hidden costs!
Can only recommend!

Great tour!!
Muhammad was a wonderful guide. He was very knowledgeable and allowed me to explore the museum at my own pace. I did not feel rushed and felt comfortable and confident with him as my guide.
A lot of artifacts are being transferred to the new museum, so please consider this when booking.
