The practical details.
Tour Pricing per Person (Private Rates)
Solo Traveler: $152 | 2 Persons: $95 / person (Standard Rate) | 3 to 5 Persons: $78 / person | 6+ Persons: $67 / person. Children under 6 years are complimentary; children 6–11 receive a 50% discount. Includes private air-conditioned vehicle, licensed Egyptologist guide, and scheduled visits.
Respectful clothing
Choose clothing that covers shoulders and knees for religious visits. Some interiors require shoes to be removed or additional covering; carry socks and follow the instructions at each entrance.
Streets rather than a driving tour
Much of the experience is on foot, over paving, steps and sometimes crowded lanes. Discuss reduced-mobility requirements early; a vehicle cannot reach every historic alley.
Shopping and photography
Shopping is optional, and purchases remain your decision. Keep belongings secure in busy areas, agree prices before buying and seek permission for close-up photographs of people.
The written quotation takes precedence over this suggested programme. Check the final services, guiding arrangements and any optional costs before confirming.
Good to know.
What are the rates for different group sizes?
This tour is private. Rates start at $95 per person for 2 guests. Solo travelers pay $152 for dedicated transport and guiding, while parties of 3–5 pay $78 per person, and 6+ guests pay $67 per person.
Which churches and mosques will we enter?
The route is agreed according to your interests and current access. No particular interior should be assumed unless it appears in the confirmed itinerary.
Can we avoid shopping stops?
Yes. Khan el-Khalili can be approached as a historic neighbourhood and walking experience. Tell us that you prefer architecture and observation over browsing.
Is this suitable for children?
The route can be shortened with breaks, but crowded lanes and uneven ground may be tiring. Share ages, pushchair needs and your preferred walking duration.
Where will we be picked up?
Your hotel or an agreed meeting point. Your exact meeting details are agreed before travel.
How is my booking confirmed?
Send an enquiry first. We review availability and provide a written quotation with the itinerary, services, price and booking conditions. Sending the form does not reserve a service.
