Great tour

Claudia_G, Jan 2022
We booked this tour last minute, which was no problem. Our tourguide Ashour showed us all you can probably visit in one day. Even some extra wishes were no problem and so we added some more stops to this tour for a little extra money. Definitely a must do when you are in Cairo :)

Thank you very much we are looking forward meeting you again

El guía hizo lo que le pareció bien

Andrea_M, Sep 2022
El tour fue un poco timo, ya que el guía nos llevó a donde le parecía bien. En primer lugar no tenía intención de llevarnos a la Mezquita de Alabastro, si no que nos llevó a dos mezquitas que no aparecen en el tour, tras varias veces de repetir que queríamos ir a la de Alabastro nos terminó llevando. Luego según el tour íbamos al Antiguo Museo Egipcio, en cambio nos llevó al Museo de las Civilizaciones que es muchísimo más pequeño y por lo tanto requería muchísimo menos tiempo, y por último al llevarnos al Barrio Copto no nos llevó a la Iglesia Colgante que es una de las cosas que ver en tal barrio. Luego el tour lo pedimos a las 8 de la mañana pero sin razón aparente salíamos a las 9. El tour lo pedimos en castellano y el guía sabía lo justito, además supuestamente el guía era egiptólogo, pero no era capaz de respondernos a preguntas que habíamos escuchado comentar a otros guías (cosas bastante básicas), además no sé si por no hablar bien castellano o porque era así pero interaccionaba bastante poco con nosotras y poca actitud de querer trabajar. El conductor y el coche en cambio estaban muy bien
