A deeper exploration of Egyptian heritage

Ehab is an exceptional guide who gave a detailed explanation on all the sites visited. Nothing was too much for him and was very knowledgeable. He made the trip 1st class. Well worth it if you want to see the real sites of Cairo and Giza

Amazing Private Tour of Old Cairo and the Mummies Museum

We had such a great experience touring Old Cairo with Khaled. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire day feel relaxed and engaging. We visited the Hanging Church and the Church of St. Sergius and Bacchus, where we saw the spot believed to be where the Holy Family rested. Khaled shared so many interesting details that brought each site to life. One of the biggest highlights was visiting the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization. The royal mummies were incredible to see in person, and the museum itself was clean, modern, and packed with fascinating artifacts. We also made a quick shopping stop where we bought some sandalwood oil and visited a papyrus shop. It was a short visit and didn’t feel pushy at all. Overall, this was a fun and meaningful tour that gave us a deeper appreciation for Cairo’s history. We’re so glad we booked it and would definitely recommend Khaled to anyone visiting the city.

Amazing Last Day in Cairo

My tour was a bit more tailored than the one displayed here. However, the experience was 5 stars +. I worked with Hesham to get me a customized itinerary as there were a few spots I wanted to hit before my flight out of Cairo. For this particular tour, my guide was Ehab. He is an egyptologyst and is working on a PhD which he will finalize at Penn State. From the start he was very accommodating and took me to a local place to drink coffee. From there, we went to the Cairo tower he gave me a detailed history of the tower; for example, when it was built, details about the construction and what I could expect once I got to the top. He took very nice pictures before I went up to take in the views from Cairo. Next stop was the Egyptian Civilization Museum. Ehab did this tour in chronological order from the predinasty period up until modern history. He walked me through very important details about the ancient civilization from Egypt which I found fascinating. He was very thorough and detailed. He also let me wander on my own after we finished the entire upper section and then i got to see the mummies. From there he took me to a local restaurant to get an Egyptian buffet, The food was scrumptious!!!!!! He even got me a good deal on the meal! Lastly, we went to the Barron Palace. He gave me a detailed explanation of how the building was designed, how New Cairo started its development after its construction and very important details about the palace history. Throughout the day he also gave me an overview of different spots about Cairo when we were on our way for the different activities I had scheduled. Ahmed, the driver, was vert punctual and professional. He helped with the luggage and ensured I got to the airport on time to make my flight. This was certainly a nice way to end a magnificent trip. I cannot thank enough Hesham and his team for making my trip to Egypt such a wonderful experience. I am definitely getting my tours from him on my next visit because there is a lot more to see. :)
