Mahmoud was spectacular. We highly recommend him. He is extremely knowledgeable, lovely to spend time with, and incredibly flexible. Five stars aren’t enough! Thank you Mahmoud for such a wonderful time and helping to make our time in Cairo so special.

Aly Elsheemy was such an exceptional tour guide. He made everything to make our tour memorable, comfortable and educational. He was such a great personality and he explained everything. He was also very caring and protective with our kid which made it to put him in our hearts. I totally recommend Aly for a tour guide in Cairo

Nothing to say...

Moreno_S, Jul 2025

Nothing to say about the Agency, careful in requests for communication. Instead the guide - requested by us speaking Spanish - from the beginning proved to be inadequate, with an investigative attitude that I interpreted aimed at understanding the "weight" of the prey. Not to mention before the visit to Coptic Cairo he invited us not to buy anything in the place - so much for religious tolerance - and my wife is a Christian Catholic ... For the rest, he made us stop at shops where the feeling he had was to be ATMs subject to withdrawal for commission. The straw that broke the camel's back was that in the store, this time chosen by us, we had seen a football outfit at 18 euros for our grandson, but they did not have the right size, so the guide told us that she would take us to a store where we would find the product not "Chinese" but Egyptian quality, and certainly with the size we needed. Result: product found in size necessary, perfectly identical to what we had, seen at the modest figure of 80 euros!! At my complaint the scandalized guide told us that it was a quality fabric outfit and not a "cineseria". Too bad he didn't know that I know enough about fabrics from experience... Then I realized that this person has never traveled outside his country, and his inferences were dictated by the wisdom of those who think they are the smartest. I repeat, nothing against the Agency, but with my wife we were really bitter by the poor attitude of the guide.
