Our trip to Cairo was spectacular and very exciting. Mr Moustafa Salah Ali our tour guide was very kind, helpful and showed and explained us the pyramids in detail, all was perfect. Our small group was very pleased with Moustafas attention and constant information provided. River Nile tour was relaxing and nice. Restaurant we had lunch was very good, local food was delicious, maybe the best restaurant we were during our Egypt tour. thanks again Moustafa, hope to see you again

Mustafa the guide was incredible. engaging, funny, informative, friendly and protective over all of our group. The whole trip was excellent throughout, with the only slight flaw being the small transport for the day trip... travelling for 7 hours in a fairly cramped van was not great! But everything else was flawless.
