Mohammed from Guru Walks @Cairo

Mohammed from Guru Walks @Cairo

TL;DR: Interesting information, Best 4h30mins time we had in Egypt and perfect photos of mine and my wife.

In Depth: We have booked this tour in last hours but it was our best decision. Mohammed guided us how to reach the destination and received us at the destination with ease.

His careful and informative planning helped us to spend the time at pyramids informative and interesting. His knowledge about history is quite deep and it is clear that he is quite good at what he does. He patiently answered all our questions in a way that we can understand.

With all the above he took plenty of photos for me and my wife. It is the best time we had in egypt and I would highly recommend to book it.

The Best Platform for Local Tours – Better Than Airbnb or GetYourGuide

I’ve been using GuruWalk for many years while traveling around the world, and it has consistently been the best platform for authentic local tours. It’s cheaper, offers a huge variety of walks, and connects you directly with passionate local guides. Honestly, I prefer it over Airbnb Experiences, Tours, or GetYourGuide. I’ve always had great experiences with GuruWalk and highly recommend it to any traveler looking for quality and flexibility.

You will get to see Chaupati , and experience of local train plus share taxi

Our guide was Shivom, and he had excellent knowledge about all the places we visited. Throughout the tour he shared interesting stories, which made the walk very engaging. We started from Churchgate and ended at Mohammed Ali Road. One of our group members even managed to do some shopping on the way! We tried a mix of Indian and non-veg dishes including kebabs and kati rolls. I would definitely recommend Shivom to others.

A walk around Montevideo

Jorge gave energy to Montevideo on our tour of the city. His humour, wit made the tour enjoyable and his knowledge meant we learnt about culture, societal change, the values of Uruguayans and what they value most. We gained an appreciation for how unique this small South American country is and how it really punches above its weight in terms of change and the respect it shows its people. A great way to see the city

Incredible Tour!

Tom was wonderful! AWESOME guru and very knowledgeable about the topic, which is obviously difficult and heavy to talk about. Tom was an excellent source of knowledge, presented the information in an engaging manner, and last but not least had a wonderful sense of humor. Well worth the time and we're extremely happy with it, thanks Tom!

Great walking tour in Colmar

Lucas did a perfect job to introduce Colmar to us. We visited lots of different places in the city centre and he showed us many details we wouldn’t have discovered otherwise. The tour with Lucas was an entertaining way to get to know Colmar which we highly recommend!!
