Islamic cairo and khan el khalili- great tour

Wonderful tour with the guide Hamada. I did not feel rushed at all. He explained a lot of facts about the city, the mosque, the water storage room, and also brought me to no-hassle shops. He picked a great place to eat and have Turkish coffee and a cold lemon
