Great experience! - As for our first trip, we are very happy that we booked this one. The driver Musala (hopefully right) and Mustafa, our guide, were great! They made us feel secure and comfortable. Mustafa is very knowledgeable, easy to talk to, funny and was patient with all our questions. He very supportive in creating a fantastic once in a lifetime experience for us. Both of them completely oriented themselves on us, our tempo and wishes. Not once did they rush us. Which was very nice! Also he took some great pictures of us and for our memories.
We highly recommend them.

Historical and cultural sites and experiences - Fantastic day trip to Historic places with stops at cultural and street food places Seeing the culture in cairo first hand as to how the Egyptian way of life is .
Can not fault the daily excursions we seen ,did ate , more than we expected on our short 5 day trip . Much appreciation to our guide Mustafa on knowledgeable information and interaction with our group and taking us to places off the beaten track to get food or gifts and to our driver who tirelessly drove us around cairo to Alexandria amongst the crazy crazy day time traffic with ease who not once got ajutated or stressed out with all that was going on with the roads and other drivers ❤️👏

This was my first tour... - This was my first tour booked through viator and I am so pleased that I did so.
Mustafa, my guide, was such a delight to have around. He was quirky and very creative with his storytelling which made the entire experience fun and enriching. He allowed me as much space as possible whenever needed and never rushed me from one place to another knowing that this was once-in-a-lifetime experience for me.
I highly recommend Mustafa and I wish other guides would emulate his balancing skills.
