Youssef is a very genuine, authentic and an incredible guide! Our trip to Cairo would not have been same without experiencing these two tours (Old Cairo tour and Pyramids tour) with him. Not only he is extremely knowledgeable but he also keeps is very engaging and makes it fun. Tours with him were some of the best Guruwalk tours that I have experienced in the world. He is also very thoughtful e.g he would always make sure that everyone has a bottle of water when walking, he would randomly, as a gesture, buy local snacks for us to try. He also recommended restaurants in Cairo for us to try which were amazing. If you are in Cairo and want to make the most out of your time, you have to go on a tour(s) with Youssef. Lastly, he takes incredible pictures while guiding you how to pose :)

Me and my sister had a great time on the tour. Youssef was really clear with his communication both prior to and during the tour. He was really informative and, as 2 female travellers, made sure we felt safe and comfortable at all times. He even offered to take us to another town and gave us good tips on where to go for dinner and a show in Cairo. We would definitely recommend this tour with Youssef!
