We are a family of 4 (two daughters ages 10 and 12), from the USA. We currently reside in Zurich and have been using this opportunity to see more of the world.

My name is Tejal Gala, and I am an 8th grade girl from California. I traveled to Egypt earlier this month, with my family and one other family.

We were only in Cairo for 36 hours and a friend recommended Samir. An excellent day spent at the Cairo Museum , the Citadel and the Coptic area. Samir proved to be extremely knowledgeable and we had a most enjoyable day with him. I would have no hestitation in recommending him.
