I went with my sisters and we chose "Taste of Cairo and Istanbul" for our vacation. We really enjoyed the whole trip. Cairo is amazing, it was my first time there but definitely not the last one. Istanbul was my second time but it was really different and more meaningful this time with Memphis Tours.
