Experience Food Tours in Cairo with Withlocals

"We had a great food tour in Cairo with Mohamed. Mohamed picked us up from our hotel and took us to a local place in Cairo for our first stop. This was amazing. The vibe was great...packed with locals ... and the food was fantastic. We then drove to another place for Kushari (Mohameds favourite) and then onto a juice bar and a place for a great dessert. We visited places we'd never have done on our own. Hightly recommended. Thank you Mohamed"

"Given the challenges of a multiple stop food tour at Iftar in Ramadan Youssef decided on a single spot with multiple selections at sunset. A great decision. After a filling and satisfying meal among the surreal Ramadan chaos we spent time visiting downtown Cairo, the bazaar and other sites. This young guide is engaging, knowledgeable and fun. This tour was an outstanding way to experience Cairo on our first day in Egypt."

"Yussuf was an outstanding food guide in Cairo and truly made our trip special from start to finish. He had planned our itinerary to balance culture, history, and food experiences perfectly. One of the highlights was when he took us to a local restaurant for our very first iftar which was an experience that we would never have found on our own. It gave us a real sense of the local atmosphere and traditions. He was also incredibly flexible and accommodating and adjusting plans as needed. He was close enough in age to connect naturally with our two teenage boys who genuinely enjoyed his company, and which made the whole experience even more relaxed and fun for all of us. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Knowledgeable, thoughtful, adaptable, and great company — highly, highly recommended!"

"My 14 year old son and I had the most amazing time with Naira. She was very knowledgeable and the places she picked were fantastic. We definitely got an insight into Egypt that we would have totally missed otherwise. I can only recommend taking a food tour with her. I think we won’t need food in the next days. From Koshary to an unplanned ice cream stop to a wonderful BBQ restaurant and topping it up with a dessert that left us speechless - it was simply perfect. We also loved the conversations we could have about life in Egypt, studying etc. Overall a 11 out of 10 experience!!! Thank you Naira "

"We had a wonderful few hours eating our way around the streets of central Cairo with Youssef. Youssef is a very personable and knowledgeable guide who was able to introduce us to many sensational Egyptian dishes. His passion for food is obvious and we shared chats, stories of family and culture and laughter over delicious food."

"Tasting the most delicious Egyptian food from the best places in Cairo with Youssef is an experience not to be missed. The range and variety of foods & drinks were perfect. Walking through the streets & alleyways of downtown was wonderful. Youssef is the perfect guide: passionate, knowledgeable, flexible, intelligent, considerate & friendly. Immediately we met I felt relaxed & safe in his company. Thanks to Youssef’s unique style, his great wit & genuine interest in sharing opinions & experiences with his guests, I enjoyed the very best day in Cairo so far. A brilliant, delicious & fun day - just perfect!!!"

"Ramses XII was awesome! He was very knowledgeable, personable, and hilarious! He made the experience incredible and so welcoming! The food stops were a delights as well! "

"Look nowhere else for a guide, Nesreen is incredible!! If you appreciate intelligence, wit, fun and local expertise then she is for you. We had the absolute best day touring the pyramids and eating local delights all while learning, laughing and having the best conversations. Thank you for such a wonderful day Nesreen!"

"I’m a foodie. I like to try good, honest local foods. Nasreen took my friend and I for the best local foods ever. Nary a foreigner to be seen, but us. I highly recommend Nasreen for her knowledge and willingness to cater to our preferences. A charming and delightful woman, who becomes your best friend in 10 minutes! I strongly recommend Nasreen. "

"We went on the food tour in Cairo just before starting a Nile cruise. Mohammed was a great guide…puntual at picking us up at our hotel, and a joy to be with. We visited 3 separate establishments to taste a variety of foods, including Koshary, Hawishi, Kofta and more. His contacts where we ate gave great explanations and offered us much information. Would definitely recommend. It lasted 3 hours from start to finish. Our only complaint was that there was too much food!"
