Perfect Cairo Layover

Jake_E, Nov 2023
Perfect way to spend part of my 12 hours in Cairo, from eating falafel for breakfast to riding camels at the pyramids, this tour was everything I wanted it to be and more. There is plenty of flexibility so if you don’t want to do a certain something, or you’d like to add a stop to your trip, all you need to do is ask Mohamed. He was a very knowledgeable guide and helped me learn Egyptian history and how to avoid hagglers 😅. All in all very fun experience, enjoyed it thoroughly, 10/10.
