My family and I (2 adults and 3 kids) had a fantastic day of touring Coptic Cairo and seeing the Cave Church. It was a special experience of seeing the possible places that the Lord Himself may have walked in. The kids were given space to ask questions, explore and had fun. Ahmed and the driver Hassan were professional and made sure that we were taken care of. He provided historical knowledge and background as we drove for many of the sites that we passed. We enjoyed our tour and would book again in the future to explore other parts of Egypt. Thanks!

We brought two children (10 and 8) with us for this tour with Essam. I highly recommend him. He has so much knowledge of the tour and was very nice throughout the day. Couldn't be happier with this tour guide. When you are going on a tour, you never know what kind of tour guide you are going to get and we are glad that Essam was our tour guide. We'll be back to Cairo again!

Good and bad. We stared good on the tour but our tour guide never took us to see The Cave Church of Saint Simon. Our guide tour took us to a store claiming he need it to stop at a cousin to talk to. We spend more than 1/2 hr at the store as his cousin/vendor was trying to sell us something. When we asked him about going to see the cave he stared by saying that he was not sure where it was. He made a phone call and after that he said that to get there we needed to pass a bad neighborhood. Sad to hear this. If you book this tour hope they stick to your program. We missed seeing the Cave Church of Saint Simon.
