This was my second time doing this tour and it was just as amazing. Heba and my guide Ahmed tailored the tour so I could see different mosques/churches this time around! We saw 3 mosques and 1 church, nothing was rushed and I feel like I have a better understanding of the history and meaning behind the places we visited! Egypt Gift Tours is incredible to deal with, and Ahmed, my guide is knowledgeable and passionate about history and his beautiful country! Do not hesitate to do this tour, you won’t be disappointed!
