Traveler reviews
Cairo Layover tour
I was in Cairo for 24 hours due to my layover and Sayed Mahmoud and Islam showed me around. They took me to all the sites I requested and took good pictures.
A jam packed day sight-seeing in Cairo
We had a fantastic tour guide and driver for our group of 5 women traveling together. Mohammed shifted the itinerary based on our interests. While the tour suggests a length of 7-10 hours, these two spent more than 11 hours with us answering our endless questions and showing us around this amazing, historic city. I could not recommend him more highly.
Great layover
It was a great layover to see some highlights in Cairo. Guide and driver were knowledgeable and friendly.
Great layover private tour
We probably had the best guide, Sayed Mahmoud, and driver, Wayeed. Firstly, forgot my laptop bag at the airport and they calmly drove us back to find it, which I did. In true Egyptian hospitality, Sayed took us through all the areas we visited. Enjoyed the fact that he allowed us to go at our own pace and also really went above and beyond in introducing us to Egyptian history and culture. And he is an awesome photographer.
Ehab is the best
I made a tour with Ehab and his great driver! Made me feel very welcome to Egypt as a solo traveller, Ehab is very knowledgeable and I would highly recommend requesting for him if you have the opportunity! Overall a great day!
