Our first full-day in Egypt and our VIATOUR guide, Iman, made sure we made the most of it! She was knowledgeable, flexible, considerate (including making sure we were comfortable on the drive) and had arranged a full-day experience for the 4 of us. We did everything highlighted on the tour package. In addition, she described the history, the current housing areas and government programs to increase housing, the sites of interest on the road from Cairo, and generally shared her customs and culture with us. We ended with visits to some of the Cairo craftsmen on the way back and had the opportunity to learn about papyrus and Egyptian jewelry and examine/purchase well-made objects. It was a great day!

Eman our tour guide is very knowledgeable. Learnt so much in one day. Mohammad our minivan drive was great to navigate the Cairo and Alexandra traffic. The highlights for me were the catacombs, the citadel and the amazing Alexandra Library. Lunch at the seafood market overlooking the Mediterranean Sea was great and Eman's recommendation of lemon drink with mint was very refreshing. Although it was a long day, I would recommend it. The minivan was very comfortable. I would recommend this tour.
