We have done the research on the various places of interest and read great deal about how great Egypt with its places of marvel, but we knew without a good guide we will not be able to achieve. While reading reviews on the net, one name came across with glowing recommendations and the name was Abdo. I was nervous at first since this was an alien place for me. Then I e mailed Abdo and spoke with him. He came across very professional and knowledgeable and courteous. He provided all the information about the trip and was very sincere friendly and articulate.
Abdo met us at the airport as promised and has stayed for us for an extra hour but met us with a friendly face and words. The hotel industry experience he possesses comes across but at a much more reasonable cost.
My friend and I arrived in Cairo with 3,000 Egyptian Pounds, which is about USD$500. We thought that would be plenty knowing that a meal only cost about USD$4 per person, and our hostel was USD$12 per night. You can read the stories on my blog at http://kellygrainger.wordpress.com/travel/egypt/, but in a nutshell, but, by the time we left Cairo (after only a few days), we were wiped out and broke. We ate our last meal at McDonalds and didn’t even have a buck left over to buy a soda!
After 9 years I returned to Cairo, and thanks to a fantastic student guide I could visit all the old Cairo streets and monuments and know more aboutr it than the first time that I did with a group tour.
This time I prefered to visit Egypt by myself, deciding the time to spend in each monument and place and having time to relax. It was a fantastic holidays!!! Cairo have improved a lot the old streets and monuments during last years, and I could see old houses restored and old streets well maintained.
I had the opportunity to visit Cairo, Egypt and it was a wonderful experience, thanks to the tour guide i had which was a guy named Yousef. He was wonderful in taking me to places I had never been before.
