What Others are Saying:
"Astryd's Cairo dance tour was an amazing experience! It was great having a guide that has lived there for over a decade, has personal relations with the master teachers and top dancer's and speaks the language. I felt very fortunate to have her knowledge and experience to guide me through my first "dance tour" of Egypt! She catered to my needs and made my experience truly fulfilling! I highly recommend it to anyone wanting a guide that is familiar with every aspect of the Cairo dance scene; setting up master classes, seeing the best shows by top dancers and making appointments for the best costume designers in Egypt. The tour exceeded my highest expectations...Thank you Astryd!" ~ Kajmir, tour participant spring, 2007
"Astryd's tour to Cairo was a life-impacting experience. Not only did I get to see the tourist sites (pyramids, antiquities museum etc.) but I got to experience the normal non-tourist day to day life of the city. From the Bazaars to the local grocery store, the shopping opportunities were limitless, the shows were fabulous, the food was delicious, and the people were generous beyond my expectations. In addition to all of that, I got to take small class, semi-private, and private lessons with some of the best dancers/teachers in Cairo. Not only did I learn techniques, combinations, and choreography's, but I got a glimpse of how this bustling city and culture infuse middle eastern dance with its exotic smells, its dramatic postures, and the kindness of its people." ~ Oralia Kolaczkowski, tour participant spring, 2007
