Horrible. Scam! Did not respond to my FOUR messages. Did not meet me at the meeting spot. SCAM. CHEATERS. Do better Viator.
Chaotic city and very interesting visit with guide in the places frequented by the inhabitants. Often the family goes out and eats something along the traffic-dividing flower beds.
After no response from the tour operator through the day, I confirmed with Viator customer support the pick up time and place and then waited there for 1.5hrs but tour guide was a no show and tour operator does not respond to any forms of contact. Now Viator just say they have to contact the tour operator to get my refund. Terrible tour company and terrible Viator customer support.
Do not book this tour. Tour guide did not turn up and did not reply to multiple messages I sent. Haven't heard anything from them since.
Unfortunately no one showed up to pick us up so we decided to take an Uber to market it was still a great time.
The tour was supposed to be partly a walking tour and we never got off the car and the driver did not speak English to give us any idea of what we were seeing. We were in traffic the whole time until we requested to be driven back to hotel.
The guide was beyond friendly and keen to talk about anything. I had a great time discovering the city centre, bazars, architecture, egyptian culture, Muslim culture and so much more. It was a learning experience!
Cairo at night is a lot of energy and if we’re honest we may have bit off too much on our first night. The market is packed and it’s quite a hustle. Our guide Mohammed was incredibly sweet and moved through the market with ease, and was friendly with many of the vendors. The mosque was incredible - however we went in during the final call to prayer and that was a bit much. It was peaceful and beautiful to watch the prayer but also felt like a strange time to visit. Be advised - if you’re travelling as a couple the man and woman can’t enter together, so being separated in a busy area was a little disorienting. We ended our night outside the walls and had a delicious chicken wrap (leftovers were given to the cats - there’s a LOT of cats). If you’re ready for some crowded action and bustle, this is the tour for you, but if youd rather do something a little more low key and have the time then I would recommend doing a day tour.
As a solo female traveller, I had a fantastic time on this tour! I was picked up right on time and the drive was very smooth. Mohamed Salah was an amazing guide! He made sure I was comfortable at all times and did not miss out on any important place or fact! Highly recommend this tour!
Spent most of the time in a car, taken to places the guide obviously gets kick backs from. Papyrus and aromatherapy, extremely over priced, full of mis truths, etc.
