My partner and I had an amazing half-day tour to Islamic Mosque and Coptic Cairo with Egypt Super Tours. Our tour guide, Samy, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He explained the history and significance of the mosque, which is one of the oldest and most beautiful in Cairo. He also introduced us to the Coptic community, who have a unique and rich heritage. We visited some of their churches, museums, and monuments, and learned about their customs and beliefs. Samy also took us to some local places where we could enjoy the authentic Egyptian food and drinks, and buy some handmade crafts and souvenirs. The tour was very well-organized and comfortable, with a modern bus and a safe driver. We had a great time and learned a lot about the culture and diversity of Cairo. We highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the different sides of this amazing city. Thank you, Egypt Super Tours and Samy, for making our trip memorable!
