Perfect afternoon at the museum - We had a fantastic experience with our tour guide, Osama, who was incredibly helpful and accommodating. Despite the short notice, they kindly agreed to take us on a museum tour and provided insightful commentary throughout. Highly recommended! ******

Grand Egyptian museum is amazing. - The Grand Egyptian Museum was amazing and our guide Amir was excellent, very knowledgeable and professional and personable. It was the best tour that we have had on our trip and Amir went above and beyond to make sure that all of our questions were answered. We would definitely recommend that tour and guide to anyone planning a trip to Cairo.

Egyptian Museum - Moses was a great tour guide! I'd book with him again. He gave good explanations at the museum to help give insight to all items in the museum. He also took us to see hand made rugs, which were beautiful and get local food

The grand museum is a masterpiece - Ayoub, went above and beyond in making my day an amazing experience. He has passion and wealth of knowledge in Egyptian history. He also made sure to talk about the most important pieces in the museum and kept me engaged at all times. To finish the tour, he took me to lunch and the food was delicious. Also, wanted to mention that he is an excellent driver, kept me safe at all times.

Manar’s kindness, flexibility, and in-depth knowledge made our last day in Cairo truly wonderful. - Manar was an absolutely incredible guide. My husband and I scheduled the GEM private tour on our second day in Cairo. We had to take a flight that evening to go to Aswan and we failed to plan ahead so that morning we messaged Manar and asked if we could bring our bags with us. She quickly and assured us she would work it out. She then took us to the GEM, we arrived right on time and got in immediately, she took us to all the best parts of the museum, was incredibly knowledgeable and answered all of our questions, and even helped find the best spots to take multiple photos. When we finished earlier than expected, Manar asked about our Cairo wish list and spontaneously helped craft an additional adventure. She and our driver, Ahmed, whisked us to local artisan shops for authentic souvenirs, arranged an impromptu visit to the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization to further satisfy our fascination with mummies and Egyptian history, and introduced us to our first mosque experience at the magnificent Muhammad Ali Mosque. Throughout our journey, she played us both contemporary and traditional music while answering our questions about local life and sharing insights about our upcoming destinations for the rest of our honeymoon. Her comprehensive knowledge of Egypt's history, culture, and hidden gems made every stop fascinating and meaningful. When our day concluded, Manar ensured we reached the airport with ample time for our flight. What started as a simple museum tour evolved into a personalized exploration of Cairo's history — experiences we would have missed entirely with any other guide. Thanks to her creativity and dedication, we left with not just photographs, but a profound connection to Egypt's past and present! Thank you, Manar!!

Ayoub made this tour eventful - Ayoub did a great job explain all the historical significance of the GEM artifacts and statues. There was so much knowledge to be absorbed and you can tell he truly has a passion for it all. At the end of the tour he brought us to a great restaurant with a view of the pyramids to finish off the day.
