Outstanding Tour with Hazem – Highly Recommended! We had an unforgettable experience exploring Islamic and Coptic Cairo with Hazem as our guide. He was truly exceptional — not only extremely knowledgeable and engaging in his explanations, but also incredibly well-organized and considerate of our limited time. Hazem ensured we saw all the key highlights, both the must-sees and the ones most relevant to our personal interests. When I mentioned I'd love to try koshari for lunch, Hazem went out of his way to find the perfect local spot — and it was absolutely delicious! What also set Hazem apart from other guides we had in Egypt is that he never tried to take us to any tourist-trap shops (like papyrus, perfumes, spices, or alabaster stores). We sincerely hope to return to Cairo to do more tours with Hazem. I wholeheartedly recommend him and his reliable driver for anyone looking for a meaningful and hassle-free visit to Cairo.

Al-Hakim came to power when he was only 11 and he successfully formed a plan to assassinate his tutor when he was 15.


Then visiting the Qalawun complex, Qalawun’s memorial included a large hospital, a madrassa-style mosque (distinguished by the teaching spaces on each of the four walls for each of the influential schools of Islamic thought), and finally his mausoleum.

Firstly the tour operator, Asma, contacted us a day in advance and was always ready to answer our questions inmediately. That was a great help as in the morning we were looking for our driver, but her help made it easy and without any stress. The follow-up, the day with Miriam, our guide, a professional egyptoligist, could not have been better. She is so enthusiastic, that its infectious :) Go for it!
