    Passing by

    Join us on this tour if you're looking for authentic, home-cooked and street Egyptian food in two different neighborhoods in Cairo.

    The first area is West Elbalad,downtown Cairo where will be meeting and kicking off with some national drinks.

    A sense of home-cooked food prepared like Egyptian grandmothers used to cook everyday is so nice.

    The second area is the iconic of the local Cairo where you can explorer Cairo off beaten pavement, the real lives of people, tuk tuks and the local markets.

    A sandwich of taameya like typical Cairenes use instead of falafel and a plate of Koshary are authentic experiences between locals!

    6+ stops will let your belly dance with the Egyptian food.

    There is no waste food on our journey, so if you can't finish your portion, vou can take the leftovers or leave it simply to any person in need on the streets.
