Experience the best of
Cairo with Withlocals

"Thanks you sooooo much Nesreen (Nana) for giving us the most perfect day one in Egypt! From the communication prior to our arrival, your friendly welcome when we met, your wonderful knowledge of Egyptian history and local life, we loved drinking it all in with you as our guide! Nana went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect, we are so grateful for all the extra bits she arranged that made it just right for us, the transportation, the wee camel ride (photos we will treasure) and finding us endless toilet stops 😂 Anyone going to Cairo needs Nana... We were just fizzing after our tour! "

"Ramses has incredible knowledge of Cairo’s history and great perspective on life in the city today. It very quickly felt like we were being shown around by a friend. Stopped for Egyptian coffee and conversation before heading deep into the old city, wrapping up with a delicious lunch. Highly recommend. "

"I booked Ramesis based on his really good reviews online, and he really lives up to it. Excellent knowledge, lovely character and exceptional hospitality, he brings out the best of the lovely Egyptian people. Please book with confidence "

"Maga was fantastic. His knowledge of the area and it's history was beyond what I could have imagined. He was a genuinely nice person and was a real pleasure to have a tour with. "

"Nesreen was very communicative so we knew exactly where to meet well in advance and the logistics were all very smooth. She took us to the ‘classic’ exhibits and to some less well-known things, explaining how the history progressed from old to new kingdoms and providing context and insight. Overall we had a great tour and got so much more from the experience than we would have done had we gone on our own or with a large group. Thanks Nesreen! "

"We went on the food tour in Cairo just before starting a Nile cruise. Mohammed was a great guide…puntual at picking us up at our hotel, and a joy to be with. We visited 3 separate establishments to taste a variety of foods, including Koshary, Hawishi, Kofta and more. His contacts where we ate gave great explanations and offered us much information. Would definitely recommend. It lasted 3 hours from start to finish. Our only complaint was that there was too much food!"

"For anyone heading to Egypt, whether it’s your first visit or returning, do yourself a favor and book Moustafa. No need to look further. He completely enhanced our experience, and the day we spent with him was easily the best day of our entire trip. Moustafa is the real deal. He makes you feel instantly comfortable and taken care of. He’s warmly kind-hearted, funny, on-time and beyond knowledgeable about everything from ancient mythology to modern politics, and everything in between. He is the best of local experts who listens, connects, and tailors the experience to you. In Egypt, we learned that accessing the best locations (and often safety) depend who you’re with. And Moustafa knows everyone. Whether it was getting into the most iconic sites with zero hassle, avoiding tourist traps, or just feeling safe and respected in every interaction—we had that because of him. The locals clearly know and respect him, and that respect extended to us in ways we didn’t expect but really appreciated. On top of all that, he knows where to find truly the best photos, better than you’d dream of. And the best Egyptian food! Everything was clear, transparently priced, and flexible. No pressure, just good energy. He’s also an amazing storyteller. He brought ancient Egypt to life in a way that felt personal and relevant, with connections to world history that made us see things differently. He clearly loves what he does, and you can feel his passion. We cannot recommend Moustafa strongly enough. Plus, a special thanks to our excellent and friendly driver who took care of us from the very beginning to the very end of the tour! Thank you again Moustafa for an unforgettable day."
