“Not as expected.”
Choosing this tour guide changed the trajectory of my trip, and not for the better. Please be advised that if you are looking for a female guide specifically, that may not happen. The profile seems misleading in that way. While Sarah and Ibrahim are nice, the tour was not what I expected. Also, I wish I had declined all picture request from them for safety reasons.

“Excellent private tour in Cairo”
We had a wonderful private tour in Cairo. Sarah organized everything perfectly and communication was very easy and professional. Our guide Youssef was excellent – very knowledgeable, friendly and patient. He explained everything clearly in German and adjusted the tour to our pace. What was originally planned as a 4–5 hour tour became a much longer and very enjoyable day, with some additional stops as well. The driver was also very professional and everything was comfortable and well organized. We especially enjoyed the Cave Church, Al-Azhar Mosque and Khan El Khalili. We can highly recommend Sarah and her team. Thank you for a great day in Cairo!

“Sharing a brilliant day around Cairo with Sara!”
Sara was very thorough and attentive before I even arrived to make sure everything was in place and I knew how the day would go. Her communication was very timely especially when it came time to find my driver (who was a very safe driver as well). She is an extremely educated and knowledgeable woman and on top of that very sweet and kind! We shared some laughs and conversation was very easy. She tailored the day exactly to my preference and even gave me recommendations such as which pyramids are worth going in, and what to avoid to get scammed. Did I mention she’s a great photographer???? It was important to me as a solo woman traveler to have a private tour guide that was a woman. You will feel safe and catered to wherever you go with Sara!
