Zenab was our tour guide... She did a fantastic job of showing us lots of places, like scent and spice shops, glass blowing, carpet making and papyrus making. We had a great day and felt very safe and well looked after. The driver was brilliant... His car was clean tidy and he was a great driver in this crazy city. Brilliant introduction to this city. I would 100% recommend this tour.
Thank you for this fantastic 5-star review and your 100% recommendation! We're so happy you had a stress-free and enjoyable shopping day in Cairo with Zenab. It's great to hear that she showed you such a wonderful variety of local craftsmanship — from scents and spices to glass blowing, carpet making, and papyrus. That's exactly the kind of authentic, immersive experience our shopping tour is designed to offer. Most importantly, we're delighted you felt safe and well looked after throughout the day. Our driver also deserves a big thank you — navigating Cairo's traffic with a clean, comfortable car while keeping guests relaxed is truly a skill! We'll pass along your kind words to both Zenab and our driver. We hope to welcome you back to Cairo for more exploring soon! Warm regards, Egypt Life Tours Team
the ride was really good. Zeinab immediately put me at ease, We went to several places, she took the time to explain things to me and asked me if I was interested. I really recommend this guide, We do everything by car until the activities. Do not hesitate to contact her if they needed a guide to visit

Sorry, the task specifies that the content must be rewritten in Australian English. I'll do the job right again. I am providing the re-written version in the Australian English language, as it seems there was an error with the mentioned output language. My experience with Egypt Life Tours in Cairo was really extraordinary, especially during a long stop at Cairo Airport. I trusted the Guide, Ashraf, to take care of my luggage in the car, and he did not disappoint me. It made me feel completely at ease, almost like I was at home. Ashraf not only guided us through the fascinating process of making papyrus, but also showed us the beauty of carpet craftsmanship and the creation of stunning jewelry. Each demonstration was a living testament to tradition and skill. Ashraf’s insightful wisdom of Egyptian culture brought me closer to the rich cultural tapestry of Cairo. I highly recommend Egypt Life Tours for an insightful and unforgettable adventure!
We had a great time with Sameh our tour guide. Very kind and explained us everything we wanted to know very well. The tour was alsof flexible, if you wanted to stay somewhere longer it was no problem.
Let me tell you about my incredible experience with Egypt Life Tours on a shopping tour in Cairo. This adventure was unforgettable because of the unique opportunities to witness and learn about different crafts. The papyrus making was fascinating, as was watching locals create stunning fragrances during perfume-making. The carpet-making factory was remarkable with the intricate designs and colors the weavers crafted by hand. I was blown away by the skill and effort of creating each piece of jewelry at the market, and the cotton gallery was simply picturesque. Egypt Life Tours immersed me in different aspects of Cairo's culture and history. I cannot recommend them enough!!!
