"Ramses has incredible knowledge of Cairo’s history and great perspective on life in the city today. It very quickly felt like we were being shown around by a friend. Stopped for Egyptian coffee and conversation before heading deep into the old city, wrapping up with a delicious lunch. Highly recommend. "
"Maga was fantastic. His knowledge of the area and it's history was beyond what I could have imagined. He was a genuinely nice person and was a real pleasure to have a tour with. "
"We had an amazing time with Moustafa. He took us to a ton of cool spots in Cairo that we would not have seen otherwise. He was incredibly knowledgable and friendly as well. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to explore the city."
"Abdallah is not only a very nice and professional guide but also very kind man. Because our fly was cancelled and we had to fly later he reorganize the schedule and come to pick up us directly at the airport. Thank you! Hope to see you soon."
"Nesreen is a total professional tour guide! We mixed up and went to the wrong meeting place for the start of the tour but she collected us and got the tour back on track! She is extremely knowledgeable and very informative but able to explain history in appropriate ways that our teenager twins really enjoyed and found entertaining! She took brilliant photos of our family and helped us have a fantastic day by organising camel rides and showing secret view spots! We have already booked our next tour with her and are really looking forward to meeting her again! Highly recommended! "
"Nesreen was truly exceptional, bringing history to life with deep knowledge and passion. With every site we visited, she shared fascinating stories that made the experience truly remarkable . I strong recommend her ! "
"We loved Maga who listen when we explained what we were after and delivered.
I ask a lot of questions and Maga answered them with details connecting lots of dots for us.
He helped avoid the touts and other rip offs in Cairo.
Great guide and nice guy."

"With our guide Ahmed and his driver Waleed our visit to Cairo was like being entertained by friends. We were even taken out for lunch . We experienced the real Cairo, the real Egypt. Ahmed’s knowledge of Egyptian history was enlightening. For anyone who wants to feel like an Egyptian for a day I recommend Ahmed."
"We had a great day with Mohamed showing us around Cairo. He was very knowledgeable and was so accommodating and helpful. If we come back again we will be doing our tours with Mohamed and would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to see the sites of this amazing city. "
"Me and my friend had wonderful time with Moustafa exploring non-touristic corners of Cairo. We instantly caught great vibe lasting until the end of the trip.
Moustafa adjusted the schedule of the trip to our needs very well. Also, modifying it on the go while getting to understand our keenness to experiencing real local flavors. We could understand Egyptian history and culture better through open-minded exchange of views. We could taste local food like koshari and sugar cane juice. Finally, we could see places which are not often visited by tourists yet worth exploring.
If you opt for some quality time in Cairo and do not want to focus purely on touristic highlights, this is the option to go for. But please, be eager to explore, open-minded and warm like Moustafa to make the most of it. Moustafa, thank you for sharing your motto - do good and good finds you. "
