Amazing afternoon tour! - Hosni was our tour guide. We had an amazing look into the daily life of an Egyptian. We visited the Al-Azhar Mosque and it was an enlightening experience. We were escorted through the entire market place. He took us to the shops with the best prices, as well as an authentic Egyptian cafe.

great tour of islamic Cairo - Really really great tour. Hosni is a friendly and engaging guide and an expert on Cairo history, and enjoys sharing it with others. Covers a lot of the sights and sets the groundwork so that you can carry on exploring on your own. We took a lot of pictures and had a fun and interesting afternoon.

Walking tour in the old city - Νιce walking tour through the old town crossing narrow streets surrounded by mosques, shops, old buildings and bazaars. First stop was a big mosque and then we had the walking tour followed by a stop to a cafe for drink a coffee or an Egyptian mint tea. We ended the tour by visiting a cotton shop.

Insightful Walk Through Islamic Cairo - This walking tour through Islamic Cairo was made exceptional by our guide, who truly understood the local culture and history, offering insights that made the experience much richer.
I recommend saving the visit to Khan el-Khalili for last, as it gives you more time to explore the market without feeling rushed. A great way to dive into Cairo’s history and vibrant culture!
