We had a great time on our food tour with Mohamed! We had a large group, ranging in ages from 10 - 70 and everyone enjoyed it. Mohamed truly went above and beyond! We had booked the tour on an Egyptian national holiday and one of the restaurants was going to be closed, so Mohamed offered to meet us there the night before for no extra charge. He ordered us all the best options and showed us around the restaurant, only to take us back out to complete the tour the following night. We would highly recommend this tour and Mohamed as a guide!Cairo food tour

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!Wonderful experience!

Sie ist toll auf unsere Kinder eingegangen und wir hatten einfach unglaublich viel Spaß. Wir sind wirklich viel gereist, aber das Erlebnis mit Nana war eines der besten aller Zeiten!Es war großartig!

Wow, what a truly wonderful day in old Cairo with Nesreen Elnagger ( Nana ) We can’t thank Nana enough for this amazing experience which should not be missed if visiting Cairo. Not only did we see many of the ancient sights along with the day to day activities going on within old Cairo but we also learned so much about the stories and history behind what we saw as well as the culture. Nana was so knowledgeable and professional throughout and has many other tours in the region too. The only possible negative was that we had to say goodbye to our friend Nana …. Until next time Food tasting tour of old Cairo

Mohamed was amazing. Kind, friendly and knew the city exceptionally well. We had a fantastic experience. We explored parts of the city we would have never found on our own. Tried foods that we would have never found on our own. We always look for an "on the ground" experience and for us, the afternoon with Mohamed was one of the best experiences we had on our entire trip. He made us feel very welcome in his city. An absolute "recommend"!The Experience

Nesreen is a delight. She’s smart, funny, open, warm, articulate, ans exceptionally knowledgeable. She goes out of her way to make sure you are well cared for and having the experience you want. We laughed all day, punctuated by really interesting conversations about history and life as an Egyptian. I particularly enjoyed her perspective and experience as an educated and independent Egyptian woman. She is approachable and kind, and you will have a terrific experience with her as your tour guide!

Nesreen was an absolutely wonderful guide. She is so warm and fun, she made us feel very welcome. She did everything to make us comfortable and adjust the pace based on our needs. She brings a big heart, a unique perspective, and a great insight into the culture that we didn’t have with other guides. She was honest, generous, and compassionate. She helped us navigate a busy market and taught us how to interact with the venders while shopping there. We loved going to a mosque with her since she brought an authentic perspective into the religious culture and rituals which we really enjoyed since it allowed us to pull back the curtain a bit on Islamic practices. We highly recommend her! She was so much more authentic and fun than a traditional guide Amazing Introduction to Cairo

Excellent tour, Nesreen has excellent English and is detailed in her knowledge of Cairo its history, religions, politics, traditions and practices. For us she filled in a lot of the intricate background to the souks buildings, their functions and artisan trades; pointing out areas and things we would never spot and talking to traders we would not approach. Everything Cairo (and probably Egyptian) she understands and can convey this simply and with enthusiasm and fun.Great tour

With less than 24hrs notice with extremely fast responses from Mohamed I was able to book a fully customised tour afternoon/evening tour of Cairo. In a few messages Mohamed was able to gauge what I wanted to do, suggest a plan and get everything confirmed. He offered to collect me from my flight and drop me back to my hotel later that evening removing any stress from my arrival and leaving me to relax and look forward to the tour. We visited Koshari Abu Tarekand had the legendary Koshari dish, a not to be missed experience. Then on to a walk through the markets of the old town starting at the victory gate - complete with a glass of sugar cane juice, and ended the evening with tickets to see Mazaher, one of the rare ensembles in which women play a leading role. The musicians of Mazaher are among the last remaining Zar practitioners in Egypt and this event that happens every Wednesday was sold out but thanks to Mohamed’s negotiating skills we were able to gain access. I felt very privileged to see such an uplifting performance. This was a last minute trip, I hadn’t had chance to research what was important to see and do and Mohamed managed to fill the time we had together with just the right experiences. He even managed to fit in a stop to get a phone charger and exchange some cash - two things that were causing me stress on arrival. Great to see a young guy with passion about his country eager to ensure visitors have the best experience during their visit. Keen to learn what he can do to improve his guiding skills through feedback I would highly recommend choosing Mohamed for a tour. Personalised Private Tour of Cairo

Mohamed was absolutely wonderful. We booked his tasting tour for our first day in Egypt (actually our first six hours) while waiting to join a tour group. So glad we did. He took us to places we would never have gone. I’m still thinking about the kushary!! When we finally met up with our tour guide, she was impressed with where we had eaten. Mohamed himself could not have been nicer especially putting up with all the questions we had. I would definitely recommend Mohamed’s tour. Thank you Mohamed! 10 out of 10!!Fantastic introduction to Egypt

We had a wonderful time with Moustafa. He is a lovely person and extremely knowledgable. He customized our trip and was very aware of our pace and level of adventurous spirit. For us, it was a whirlwind of activity and we loved every minute. I would not say this was a “food tour”, but rather a complete experience of local culture. Highly recommend Moustafa!

Mohamed picked us up in his personal car and took us to five different locations. He provided us with a range of different meals, sweet, savoury and drinks. His English was excellent and two days on we are pleased to report that we did not get sick from any of the locations he took us to. Particularly he provided lots of extra information about how schools, tax and other interesting facts about Egypt. We would highly recommend booking a tour with him.A great experience

Mostafa's knowledge of Cario's culture, food and history made this tour the perfect way to experience the city. He took us to places that we would never have found by ourselves and made us feel as if we were just spending time with a local friend and we also felt totally safe and comfortable the whole time. He was able to not only explain the food and Cairo as it is today, but also is extremely knowledgeable in ancient Egyptian history, given that he is also an Egyptologyst. I will definitely be checking out his other tours the next time I visit Cairo. So glad we found him and I cannot recommend him enough as your guide when you visit Egypt. Perfect way to experience Cairo.

Nana is a wonderful guide - a warm, empathetic and joyful person who made me feel instantly at ease. I am a woman and was travelling solo; she took great care to keep me safe during drop-offs and pickups, and allowed me to see a side of Cairo I would have been unable to access either alone or through a standard tour company. We attended a concert under moonlight at the Citadel, and wound our way through backstreets visiting local restaurants, mosques and brass-making workshops. It was brilliant. I truly cannot recommend her highly enough! A magical experience

Ahmed is very nice and knowledgeable however compared to other food tours I have done before it was a let down. It was more of a downtown walking tour with Egyptian dinner rather then Food tour. I am not sure it’s a good value for money unless you are in a bigger group. 8 dishes were tasted all vegetarian. Good experience

22 February 2024

Our food tour with Ahmed was our last activity after 18 days of touring around Egypt. This was also our first day in Center Cairo and that alone was a particularly hectic tour. And yes he definitely knows the places where the food is really good. First we had coffee in a quiet shady street with locals and then walked to the first restaurant where we went to try various dishes. Certainly the moussaka, which we had also eaten in other places and a sauce with tahini were delicious. Soft yet full of flavor. Then we continued on through the city towards the bazaar, mainly to admire the huge array of spices. Then our walking tour continued to the next restaurant which specializes in making Koshary. A kind of national dish of Egypt. we did not know it yet and yes its variation in basic ingredients made it a nice choice. The restaurant specialized in making this dish and all 5 floors were full. Was an experience in itself All in all an interesting tour that certainly expanded our view of Egyptian cuisine. Ahmed is a very friendly guide who speaks good English. But what on the one hand is his strength; a great willingness to serve and always willing to change the program if he suspects that you like something else as well is perhaps sometimes his weakness. It is a trait peculiar to Egyptians and what makes them very pleasant tour guides. But sometimes, in my opinion, it is nicer to have a clear program and stick to it and not give your guests too many choices. Should we come back to Cairo again we will definitely use his service again. Foodtour with Ahmed

We had a lovely time spending the evening with Ahmed. Ahmed was immediately responsive to our request for his service and very willing to tailor an experience to our family’s need, as we have two young children. We ran into typical issues with traffic, and although they eroded our time, Ahmed was calm and engaged us in figuring out the best solution and a plan that worked best for us. He was kind, patient, flexible and wonderful with our children. We felt comfortable and relaxed being with him, unlike several of the other guides we have spent time with in Egypt. It was our pleasure to explore Egyptian food and the market with Ahmed and we recommend his services. Tailored food and market tour in Cairo

Wie reisen sehr viel und haben viel Erfahrung mit Tourguides. Nesreen war eine der besten. Sie spricht hervorragendes Englisch, sie hat ein außerordentliches und umfangreiches Wissen, nicht nur im Bereich der Ägyptologie, sie hat unsere Tour individuell und flexibel gestaltet. Schon im Vorhinein hatte sie sich nach unseren Wünschen und Bedürfnissen erkundigt. Sie war einfach zu kontaktieren und sie hat sehr schnell geantwortet. Für uns war die Tour mit Nesreen eine "once in a lifetime experience", weil wir dank Nesreen in der kurzen Zeit sehr viel über die Pyramiden, aber auch über das Leben im modernen Ägypten lernen durften. once in a lifetime

My husband and I could not have wished for a better guide than Nana! Already from the very first message I received from her I knew she would be the perfect match. And we were not disappointed! She has the perfect mix of knowledge, humor and sarcasm (something us Dutch love;)) It was like walking around with a walking and talking encyclopedia (yes I am from that period) but the interesting and funny kind. Whatever she said you just had to listen and she explains it in a way that it sticks with you. I can honestly say she is the best guide we ever had. If you look for a guide, don’t look further, Nana is your gal!Match made by the pharaohs!

If Indiana Jones and an Egyptian goddess had a lovechild, it would definitely be our amazing tour guide Nana! From the very first moment, we knew we were in the best hands. With a smile that could outshine the desert sun and a brain packed with mind-blowing knowledge, Nana led us through the inspiring world of the Giza Pyramids. And this wasn’t some boring history lecture – nope! Nana brought ancient Egypt to life with passion and humor. She told us stories about pharaohs, decoded hieroglyphs, and dropped (fun) facts that had us saying “No way!” every five minutes. She made us laugh, made us think, and had us completely hooked from start to finish. And let’s talk about the photo magic! Nana turned quick stops into mini photo shoots – complete with hilarious posing tips and genius photo hacks. We left with unforgettable memories! Thank you, Nana, for one of the most fun, educational, and unforgettable experiences of our lives. You didn’t just show us Egypt – you made us feel it. The culture, the history, the soul of it all. We are truly grateful and already miss your energy! Final verdict: 10 out of 10 camels – Highly recommend!A Day with Nana – The Queen of Giza!

Definitely someone who is skeptical of going with a guide, but Nasreen (Nana) was super excited, knowledgeable, and accommodating for our unique pyramids itinerary. We started in the morning and traveled to Giza, had a lovely breakfast at Khufu’s, and checked out the Sphinx. You should go inside the pyramids, but be warned it’s physically demanding and not visually spectacular inside- the most in tact Egyptian burial art is in the valley of the kings in Luxor. Overall, definitely worth going with Nana for her encyclopedic explanations of ancient Egyptian history, and larger context for the country’s current culture/identity. Highlight of our trip!Hire Nana If You Can!

We got lucky finding Nesreen for our trip to the pyramids in Cairo! She made our day so much better than we expected. After reading horror stories online about pushy guides and tourist traps in Egypt, I was pretty worried. But Nesreen was nothing like that. She kept things fun and interesting for all of us - even managed to keep our teenage boys engaged! She never rushed us or pushed us into any shops, which was a huge relief. Her English is great, and she knows her stuff about Egyptian history. What really stood out was how incredibly trustworthy she is - we felt completely at ease with her the entire time. Her kindness and generosity showed in everything she did, from taking extra time to explain things to my kids to helping us navigate local customs. We also really appreciated how she suggested other cool places we should check out during our trip and even offered to call places to help us make reservations. That extra effort made a big difference. If you're heading to Cairo and want a guide you can actually trust, Nesreen is your person. She made our pyramid visit one of the highlights of our trip to Egypt!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​A Genuinely Kind and Knowledgeable Guide

For anyone heading to Egypt, whether it’s your first visit or returning, do yourself a favor and book Moustafa. No need to look further. He completely enhanced our experience, and the day we spent with him was easily the best day of our entire trip. Moustafa is the real deal. He makes you feel instantly comfortable and taken care of. He’s warmly kind-hearted, funny, on-time and beyond knowledgeable about everything from ancient mythology to modern politics, and everything in between. He is the best of local experts who listens, connects, and tailors the experience to you. In Egypt, we learned that accessing the best locations (and often safety) depend who you’re with. And Moustafa knows everyone. Whether it was getting into the most iconic sites with zero hassle, avoiding tourist traps, or just feeling safe and respected in every interaction—we had that because of him. The locals clearly know and respect him, and that respect extended to us in ways we didn’t expect but really appreciated. On top of all that, he knows where to find truly the best photos, better than you’d dream of. And the best Egyptian food! Everything was clear, transparently priced, and flexible. No pressure, just good energy. He’s also an amazing storyteller. He brought ancient Egypt to life in a way that felt personal and relevant, with connections to world history that made us see things differently. He clearly loves what he does, and you can feel his passion. We cannot recommend Moustafa strongly enough. Plus, a special thanks to our excellent and friendly driver who took care of us from the very beginning to the very end of the tour! Thank you again Moustafa for an unforgettable day.The best guide of Egypt

Abdou was absolutely amazing during our time in Luxor. We visited the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, and the Open-Air Museum—all stunning places made even better by Abdou’s incredible knowledge of Egyptian history. He explained everything in such a simple and interesting way, and we never felt overwhelmed. What really impressed us was how much he went above and beyond. We needed help arranging a driver for another destination and advice on hot air ballooning, and Abdou handled it all like a pro. Honestly, he’s better than most hotel concierges! He made everything feel easy and stress-free. If you’re visiting Luxor, Abdou is the guide you want. He’s kind, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about making sure you have the best experience.
