Great day out - Great day out!!. Salib was an excellent tour guide and mostafa a perfect driver. arrived on time to begin with then we got to the museum early to get tickets and be one of the first inside the museum. Salib was very knowledgeable about all the pieces he showed us and was able
To answer any questions we had. Spent about 2 hours inside the museum with some free time if wanted which I felt was plenty of time. We had lunch which was delicious and was the shown around the Coptic churches which were beautiful. I would 100% Recommend for anyone to this tour and for those who love history - you won’t be disappointment :)

Very Knowledgeable and Cool Guide - Salib was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable and taught my husband and I a lot about the ancient Egyptian culture. He was so hospitable and even took us to get some authentic Egyptian street food, which was delicious. He knew all of the cool places to get gifts to take back home. He was a great guide, highly recommended!
