Transport costs and tours

[ess19]

Hi there

Can anyone please tell me what sort of price taxi's would be from Nasr City into downtown Cairo? Are taxi's the best option (hassle wise) to get around the city?

Also does anyone know any good, reasonable tour guides for places like Sakkara, Memphis and old Cairo? I think I'll be having a few visitors for the time I'm living in Cairo and they'll want to see the sites!!!!

Thanks!

I heard crazy stories about taxis and coach drivers in Egypt. I mean, those who service tourists.
