I took this walking tour my last night in Cairo. I had already seen the famous sights of Egypt during my 8 day tour, but I really wanted the chance to see more of Cairo, to learn more about the people and the city, and to have someone to eat dinner with locally. Mohamed O was a wonderful guide. He provided interesting information and answered all my questions. Riding the subway, sitting outside at a neighborhood cafe, tasting my first koshery, and ending the evening with ice cream (yay!) made me feel a little less like a tourist. This tour is a great value if you want to know more about present-day Cairo and its recent history. It's like a neighborhood stroll with a well-informed friend, and I am so glad I ended my Egypt stay with this tour.

An excellent experience! The 'Downtown Cairo' walking tour provided a fantastic opportunity to explore the various aspects of Cairo. Our wonderful guide Mohamed Osama (Mo) was enthusiastic, fun, and knowledgable. We were provided details about Cairo's history, different architectural designs, politics, culture, and lifestyle. This was a great way to spend an evening exploring Cairo. Highly recommend this tour!

Hanan was great, she showed us a side of cairo that i may not have checked for myself. The tour gave a good insight into Egyptian culture and normal every day life. Afyer being on a packed metro i would have the confidence doing it myself. Great tour and leader.

Both guide and driver were excellent!

This tour is highly recommended, especially before visiting the Pyramids of Giza. Our highly educated guide gave us an excellent background commentary during the journey to Memphis, which was very interesting. The highlight for us, however, was Saqqara with the Step Pyramid, visit inside the Pyramid of Unas and being able to get up so close to the amazing reliefs of the mastaba tomb of Princess Idut.

Our tour guide was just wonderful - engaging, flexible and so eager to impart her knowledge - and the walk through downtown Cairo was exhilarating. It provided a wonderful counterpoint to our other explorations of Egyptian culture, both ancient and modern, and the stops for fresh juice, fantastic koshari and delicious icecream were highlights. We started to feel like true Cairenes, even given a taste of riding the metro. At the end of this very satisfying evening, we were efficiently packed into an Uber for a very cheap ride back to our hotel. Highly recommended!

The Downtown Cairo experience was very interesting for us. It covered part of Cairo I had not seen and at night which is something I wanted to do. Loved riding the Metro and hearing "insider news" from Mohammed. Most of the tours focus on ancient or medieval sites, but if you are interested in how people live now in Cairo, it's good to take a tour like this one. Loved walking around town with the locals and stopping at an outdoor café. I actually did not have any expectations at the beginning. and I was pleasantly surprised.
