Nací y crecí en la "Ciudad Basura" en El Cairo, y soy fotógrafo profesional. Trabajo dentro del Monasterio de San Simón el Curtidor (también conocido como Iglesia de la Cueva), como fotógrafo y editor (video y fotos) para los visitantes del centro Mario High Ropes. Además, organizo recorridos dentro de la Ciudad de la Basura junto al monasterio, con experiencias únicas como la visita a un palomar, visita a un centro de reciclaje, una fábrica de plástico y una explicación de la historia única de sus habitantes, que en su mayoría son cristianos. del Alto Egipto como yo.
We had an amazing time on this tour, we learned a lot and could access areas with the guide that would have been impossible on our own. The people we met along the way were all very friendly and welcoming as barely no tourists make it past the cave church. Would 100% recommend this tour.
The tour Abanoub gave was well planned and well times, not too long not too short. You get to see interesting, authentic places you could never find on your own like where they melt plastic or all the way up in the highest pigeon tower of the area. He offers refreshing drinks and helps you to find a good taxi, he takes nice pictures and gives information. Excellent tour.
It was a memorable experience, nothing like you saw before. The religious aspects and also the way of living of the people, will make you have a different perspective of life in Cairo. It is called the trash city but it can be called the recycle city, everything is separated and can be used for something new. Welcome to the biggest carved church in the world.
I had a nice and interesting afternoon with Abanoub. We visited different areas in the Garbage City, It has broadened my view. Highly recommended.
Really great experience that allows you to see another aspect of Cairo
