Amazing tour!

Published on Oct, 2021

To start off, Aziza is an amazing tour guide. It felt like a friend showing around. Everything was very comfortable like we’ve been friends prior to the tour. She’s extremely knowledgeable of all the sites and made sure we got see everything. I highly recommend Aziza as a tour guide. Also shout out to our driver Basem who provided us smooth rides to all the sites.

Short notice Tour!

Mimo's sense of urgency was tested in this tour. With a given ample of time to prepare we were able to push everything through -- with some things adjusted, of course. I was amazed on how he's taken into consideration everything. I am fully satisfied as he explained everything with enough certainty! Thank you Mimo! And, also, I would want to commend Yesser, which supposedly my tour guide, for arranging this meeting! Guys, both of them are your men! You'll definitely be in good hands! Thank you Mimo and Yesser! :)

All the sites!!

I was so impressed with my guide Mohamed Mahmoud with Let’s Explore Egypt that I booked two more day trips with them. The Islamic and Coptic tour was fantastic - the Citadel and the most important mosques, churches, and a synagogue. They even arranged for me to get a PCR test to return home, which was a great relief. Lunch was delicious, koshari at famous and popular diner. The driver, Beshoy, expertly and safely navigated the crazy streets of Cairo.

Great day in Old Cairo

I had a fantastic day with Mohamed Mahmud exploring these amazing sights in Cairo. During the day I learnt a lot about the history of the city. We had enough time at each stop and Mohamed made sure that I feel safe ans comfortable throught the day. I truly recommend this tour to everyone who wants to see these incredible monumenta in Cairo!

Coptic and Islamic Cairo at its finest!!!

Tired of sarcophagus, pyramids & mummies? If you are experiencing overwhelming ancient egyptian information its time to direct your focus to a different era of egyptian civilization. Experience the hidden gem of coptic & islamic cairo —a relaxing tour as you go back to the intersecting history of islam and christianity that succumbed egypt. Our guide turned to personal friend — gamil gamal never fails to give us astonishing information as we visit old mosques & churches. My personal favorite was our visit to the alabaster mosque & the caverine church of the holy family. We were provided with a good driver & was treated with a delicious traditional egyptian lunch! This tour is highly recommended.
