Excellent tour!

We took this tour with Amir on March 3, 2019. He was very knowledgeable, and gave us enough time to see all that we wanted to see. He asked us about our specific interests, which helped us get the most out of the tour. We saw the highlights of Cairo (with the exception of the Egyptian Museum, which we were going to see on another day). I would highly recommend this tour. Amir and his driver picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel, which was extremely handy. Our tour was just my husband and myself.

Great day exploring Cairo!

On my last day in Egypt, I was lucky enough to have a wonderful time exploring Islamic and Coptic Cairo with Dodo from Cleopatra Tours. In Coptic Cairo, we saw Abu Sirga Church, the Hanging Church and the Ben Ezra Synagogue - a lovely, cool break from the hustle and bustle of Cairo city! Moving north, we explored the citadel and visited two mosques (Mohamed Ali Alabaster and Sultan Hassan) and then headed to Tentmaker’s Alley and Khan el-Kalili.. with a couple of bonus stops along the way ;). Massimo helped us organise the day and was very helpful in customizing my itinerary, and quick to respond to any queries. Thanks both for a great day in Cairo!

Response from the operator: We take pride in giving outstanding service to every customer here at Cleopatra Egypt Tours. We are happy to hear that your visit was no exception, thanks for leaving the wonderful review!

Private Day Tour to Old Islamic Cairo & Coptic Cairo with Lunch: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.

How much does Private Day Tour to Old Islamic Cairo & Coptic Cairo with Lunch cost?

+

Prices start at $30 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Private Day Tour to Old Islamic Cairo & Coptic Cairo with Lunch take?

+

Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cairo is not rushed.

Is Private Day Tour to Old Islamic Cairo & Coptic Cairo with Lunch worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Tour to Old Islamic Cairo & Coptic Cairo with Lunch?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Private Day Tour to Old Islamic Cairo & Coptic Cairo with Lunch suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Private Day Tour to Old Islamic Cairo & Coptic Cairo with Lunch?

+

Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cairo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Private Day Tour to Old Islamic Cairo & Coptic Cairo with Lunch start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cairo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Cairo?

+

On Outty we rank every Cairo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All-in-One Giza Tour, inside Pyramid, sphinx, Camel ride & lunch, VIP Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx Tour –Inside the Pyramids&More, Best of Cairo Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Museum Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Cairo?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Cairo?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+

+
