Nesreen is a total professional tour guide! We mixed up and went to the wrong meeting place for the start of the tour but she collected us and got the tour back on track! She is extremely knowledgeable and very informative but able to explain history in appropriate ways that our teenager twins really enjoyed and found entertaining! She took brilliant photos of our family and helped us have a fantastic day by organising camel rides and showing secret view spots! We have already booked our next tour with her and are really looking forward to meeting her again! Highly recommended!

Awesome Experience !
We had a group of 6 that booked a food tour with Nana. The tour not only included food, but a wonderful cultural immersion into the lives of the Egyptian people! Nana is a wonderful person that's full of knowledge. We could have spent every day of our trip in Egypt learning from her. Definitely book her!

Personalised Private Tour of Cairo
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.
