Tourguide nicht gekommen. Habe über eine halbe Stunde gewartet und Reiseagentur behauptet ich sei nicht gekommen. Zum Glück konnte viator helfen. Das Reisebüro ist auf keinen fall zu empfehlen.

My guide and driver were both very friendly and knowledgeable and shared some great personal perspectives along with historical and cultural ones. The tour showed parts of Cairo that the more typical tour itineraries might skip, and that was what I liked best.
