We had a really great time on this tour. Our guide/driver Mahmoud was really lovely and friendly. The great thing about this tour is you can go at your own pace. The only negative was the driver was 50minutes late for pick up and there was a general lack of communication from the tour company. He was super apologetic though and did make up for it by giving us a great tour. So I would recommend this tour but don't plan anything after just in case there is a delay.

Mahmoud was very helpful and collected us on time. We did not feel rushed at all during the trp He helped us in the market which made things easier. It was a shame we couldn't go inside one of the mosques and it would have been good to know this beforehand. But a very pleasant trip and worth the money
tour guy never answered and showed up after half of the day. The car smelled like smoking for days without air circulation.
The guide was disinterested and didn't have answers to most of my questions. I contacted the company before the tour to make sure all the places we would visit would be open - as it was Easter weekend. They said yes. The one place I specifically wanted to go was not open (the cathedral). My "guide" drove to the carpark there and dumped me. He said - just go inside and get a guide in there". (Note: this was a private tour US$40.) There was no guide and it wasn't open. When I asked a person near the gate, I was told to come back tomorrow.!! The Secret Spot (for photos) above the town was a Joke. This was possibly the worst tour I have ever done.
The best of the tour agent. I really appreciate from Ashraf. He is so good, he helped us. We saw all good places in city. Thank you very much for accompanying us. Thank you stepway.
Great experience guide was on time also very helpful & great communication no complaints would recommend
Great tour with Ahmed. Got to see two Mosques, a Church, the famous Farsha cafe, and got some souvenir shopping done in the old market.
Good tour for the start of your trip. See some Mosques and a Church, then visit the Old Market for some shopping
We had a very good evening touring the old market, visiting the mosques and church. We spent some time at a restaurant in the old market to enjoy an authentic Egyptian dinner. Our guide Ahmed was very good and friendly. The sugarcane juice was a nice touch.
Great cultural experience and learning! Tour guide Mohammed was very knowledgeable and accommodating. He took his time with us and went above and beyond during the tour. He even explained to our young children in a way they would understand. Priceless family memory ❤️

Family visit, the Guide was great but we paid more than 100€ (us 5) for places easily accessible by any bus or taxi, there is no paid admission either to the mosque or the cathedral...
