“We are a group of six and we had many bad adventures in Cairo, but one great luck: to find our guide Mohamed Saleh. He was not only a very knowledgeable guide, but also the kind of friend you are lucky to meet while traveling abroad. Our experience became fantastic thanks to him. The day started very badly because of a dirty hotel we had mistakenly booked, but Mohamed immediately helped us by suggesting a beautiful and clean new one, completely changing our stay. We had also booked the wrong tour, and Mohamed was extremely helpful in contacting the agency and reorganizing everything, adding Saqqara, Memphis, and the Pyramids of…”

“We were picked up 30 minutes late but the company had notified us beforehand via WhatsApp that they were running late due to traffic. Our tour guide Ahmed was a university student studying languages (English and German) and therefore had a very good command of the English language. We were in our own felucca and enjoyed a lovely peaceful sail while Ahmed described the various sights. The large fountain in the middle of the Nile activated as we sailed by, further adding to our enjoyment.”

“The trip was well organised and Abeer Abdalaty made it informative and fun. Even though there was no wind, so the Feluccas could not sail, Abeer organised instead a motor boat at no extra cost, which took us on a great ride all along the Nile to our favourite soundtracks. Food was an authentic experience of a classic Egyptian dish presented in style. The taxi was always prompt. As a solo traveller it was great to share with others. Fantastic value and very enjoyable.”
