“Cairo city tour in the afternoon”
We had a very interesting tour of Coptic and Islamic Cairo with our guide Jasser. We visited the Hanging Church, the Alabaster Mosque, the famous Khan el-Khalili market, and the main historic street. It was a great way to discover the history, culture, and different sides of Cairo. Jasser was very knowledgeable, professional, and helpful throughout the tour. He was always available to answer our questions and explained everything clearly and with great passion. He was a really good guide and made the experience enjoyable. We recommend booking this tour in the morning, as many monuments close around 4:00 PM in the afternoon. Starting the tour earlier allows you to spend more time at the monuments and enjoy the visits without feeling rushed. Overall, it was a very interesting and enjoyable experience. We would definitely recommend Jasser as a guide!

He is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate, and he explained the history and the places we visited in a clear and engaging way.
