Best choice if you really want to learn

Our guide, Ahmed, was a great history teller, and we learned a lot from him. He told us the details of Mosques, and gave us a chance to hear the Quran in person. It was really beautiful. Due to Ramadan season, we didn’t get to see the Al Azhar Mosque which we wanted to see the most. We also didn’t get to see the citadel, but he took us to other mosque. We were taken to some shops, and the spice shop was quite nice. Maybe we should have gone to the mosques first and go to the shops later, so we wouldn’t miss what we really wanted to see. If we could do all the tour, it was perfect. All in all, we really enjoyed the tour!
