5.00We finished the tour with Zizou, everything went great. We were picked up from the hotel on time. The driver was not only waiting for us, but also opened the doors in the high traffic areas to make sure we were in and out of the car safely. Visited all churches listed and were really impressed with all of them, especially the cave church. The tour guide was very passionate and informative of all of the places we visited. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone interested in explore the Coptic Cairo area in depth.

5.00This tour was fantastic. Everything about Egypt is incredible in regards to the history and preservation of culture. Being in the places where all religions overlap and started was fascinating. We had Zizou as our guide for the day. He was able to take us through all of the churches while giving us a complex history of each church, it’s significance as well as sharing in depth knowledge of Christianity, Islam and the history of the religions throughout Egypt and the significance over time.
