Descubriendo la historia antigua de El Cairo: free tour

Mahmoud was really helpful to visit the citadel. Visiting the citadel without him wouldn't be as nice as it was

Mahmoud was a perfect guide for us, he is very polite and having always good manners. His English is above average and he’s very clear during his explanation. He also sang for us, very nice voice!

Mahmoud was an exceptional guide. He was warm, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the area and its history. Would highly recommend!

The tour is exactly as described. The entire walk will be inside the citadel where you will see very interesting architecture, and Mahmoud shares lots of historical and cultural information. Weather can be very hot- wear hat and bring water. Please note, be sure to check and conform to dress code for mosques. Otherwise women visitors will be asked to purchase or rent a scarf for hair and shoulders. Very nice tour.

Taking this tour has been one of the highlights of my stay in Cairo. While at first I thought the Citadel would be little more than an ancient vantage point to overlook the hazy Cairo skyline; instead it turns to be a place full of history, culture, and beauty. Mahmoud was very good in communicating before and during the tour. He was un-Egyptionally punctual 😀. He is a fountain of wisdom, a certified guide, and fun to be with. Would definitely recommend!
