In our second day in Cairo with Ali and Mohammed we explored the coptic and islamic neighborhoods of Cairo. There is a lot of history to be experienced at the hanging church in coptic Cairo and we visited two other churches as well. Guide Ali was happy to tailor the tour to our needs. Since the Ben Ezra Synagogue was still closed after Covid, wie visited Al Azhar mosque in islamic Cairo instead. Finally, we walked around Khan el-Khalili bazar. A very relaxing and comfortable half day tour!

My wife and I are experienced travelers and found the tour with Maged one of the best we have had. Maged’s knowledge coupled with his ability to relate historical detail regarding our visit to the Coptic Cario was remarkable. He answered all of our questions in an easy to understand manner with his excellent command of the English language.
In the Khan El-Khalili portion of the tour, time was spent discussing Egyptian history over coffee that was both enjoyable and informative.
We highly recommend this tour to anyone that desires to better understand the history of Coptic Cario! Historical events that are just not commonly known, particularly the events surrounding Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
Maged also took some great pictures of us at the various sites. His driver was very cautious and polite, an added bonus.
