      Excellent guide and great experience.

      "Good introduction experience to old and modern Cairo, exploring ancient traditions, religion, culture and food heritage. Nesreens’ passion, enthusiasm and love for the city and the culture was infectious. Kids enjoyed her immensely. Highly recommended!!"

      Best Introduction to Cairo!

      "My 19 year old son and I had a wonderful day with Moustafa! He took us to the Pyramids first, where our “off the beaten track” tour had us walking through ruins by ourselves to a hidden tomb with fabulous paintings and hieroglyphics! When our pyramid tour was over, we went on a local tasting tour where we had delicious food and learned all about Egyptian culture past and present. Moustafa was a terrific host! "

      Knowledgeable and genuinely lovely guide

      "We had the absolute pleasure of spending the day with Nesreen, and from the very first moment we clicked. She is such a cheerful, warm, and funny person with an amazing sense of humor. On top of that, her knowledge is incredible, and she shares it in such a lively and engaging way that history truly comes alive. She made our visit to the GEM Museum an unforgettable experience, and we also thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Pyramids. It honestly felt like we were exploring Cairo with a good friend rather than just a guide. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely lovely guide, we can’t recommend Nesreen enough. Thank you again, dear funny Nesreen! 🫶🏻 You made our trip so special!"

      Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!

      "What a wonderful time we had with Nesreen! She was more than capable of dealing with us in the height of summer with two 6year olds and tired parents. We loved her company and her support. Great to talk to, walk with, enjoy ice cream with and to enjoy a site I’ve been looking forward to visiting my entire life. "

      Review about Nesreen

      "Nesreen was fantastic. She was very open, friendly and knowledgeable and felt comfortable with her immediately. She made our Old Cairo walking tour interesting and enjoyable. We particularly liked how friendly and respectful she was with the locals, treating them all like old friends. She was also very kind and caring with us. My husband wasn't feeling well at one stage during the tour so she sat us down in a Cafe and went to a local pharmacy to get him some medicine. We were very grateful for this and felt very safe in her hands. She also stepped in to provide us assistance when we ran into some troubles trying to get to our meeting point at the beginning of the tour. We would highly recommend a tour with Nasreen. You will not be disappointed."

      "What a nice person Youssef is! He went all out to give us the best food experience, even though we accidentally booked it during an important festival and many places were closed. He was helpful, caring and speaks great English as well as Spanish!! He’s even helped us with our plans for the rest of our Egypt trip. Highly recommended!! Thank you Youssef!"

      "The experience with Ramses has been better than what we expected, and this was not the first food tour we had. On top of trying delicious local food, Ramses was sharing insights into the local history and culture in a very engaging way. He was attentive to our needs and preferences all the time. Highly recommended!"

      Nesreen is the perfect tour guide

      "Nesreen is extremely knowledgeable & articulate in the information she provides, but beyond that she is also an incredibly nice person and really tailors the pace of the day to your needs. She made our honeymoon trip to the pyramids very special. We later had a trip (through another company) with another tour guide that we didn't pick, and while it was certainly less expensive, the experience was completely night and day. We wished we could have gone back and hired Nesreen for that tour too. Cannot recommend booking enough. "
