Nosotros nos perdimos para llegar al sitio de encuentro del Tour Historia del Cairo Islámico y hablamos con Gihan y ella en forma muy amable fue por nosotros a donde estábamos y finalmente empezamos el tour. Tuvimos un excelente tour porque ella tiene un amplio conocimiento del mundo islámico y ella siente pasión por la historia y verdaderamente lo trasmite, ella es muy paciente y respondió todas las preguntas que teníamos sobre los sitios y el mundo antiguo egipcio. Definitivamente la recomendamos ampliamente. Gracias Gihan y esperamos verte pronto. Un abrazo desde Houston.
