Most beautiful part of Egypt trip: Siwa oasis - We had an amazing time in Siwa. Mohamed took great care of our stay, adjusting our itinerary to ensure we visited the salt lakes when the weather was better. He also helped book our bus tickets to and from Cairo, making our trip hassle-free. For future travelers, I highly recommend bringing a pair of flip-flops when visiting the salt lakes. The surface is quite rough, and moving between lakes barefoot can be uncomfortable. One thing to note is that our itinerary mentioned a visit to the cold lakes, but we didn’t end up going there. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we truly appreciated Mohamed's hospitality and organization!

Exceptional experiences in Siwa - The place is full of charm and far calmer than the capital. Our guide, Mohamed, took us on an unforgettable journey through the Siwa Oasis. His deep knowledge of the area’s rich history, unique architecture, and hidden treasures truly brought the experience to life. As a local with a PhD in archaeology, he represents his homeland with pride and authenticity. With Mohamed, we explored places most tourists would never discover on their own. His passion for the oasis and its culture was contagious, teaching us so much about the local traditions, the significance of its architecture, and even the mysteries of the night sky during the desert tour. Mohamed seems to know everyone in Siwa. Speaking of the night sky, seeing the stars in the desert was absolutely breathtaking. Mohamed explained the connections between the constellations and the stories behind each star.

So much to see in Siwa - Excellent tour from Cairo. Mohamed Tagga was an exceptional guide for Siwa as he is a local and an archeologist. He has writted a thesis on the tombs in Siwa. We fit in all the major attractions into my short 1.5 days, including Shali Fortress, Cleopatra spring, swim in salt pools, swim in hot springs, Amon Temple, Gabal Dakrur (where they have the harvest festival), 4wd over Sahara sand dunes, see fossilized shells, watch sunset over the dunes, Gebel al Mawta (700 tombs), Fatnas island.

Amazing experience with a local Siwa guide - We went with a friend and it was truly amazing 😍 The salt lakes were beautiful, we took a lot of pictures, Mohamed was very helpful with that as well (just don't forget flip flops! It was a rookie mistake on our part and the salt rocks can hurt your feet 😅) Then the safari for me personally was the best part, a bit of adrenaline and the sandboarding 😳 A lot of fun, and then chilling with tea and watching the sunset. The next day we were sightseeing the historical parts like the mount of the dead, the tombs, the temples and the fortress. Mohamed has a lot of knowledge that he gladly shares. Then a sunset at the island 😊 The hotel included in the trip is also very nice, people at the reception very friendly and helpful. Local food included in the trip was very tasty, we were very happy to get to try it 😊

Paradise - Japanese people can feel safe because they can speak in English. I am very satisfied because they guide me to all the wrinkle spots to see. The hotel was also very beautiful and paradise-like. It was cute with many cats. Mr Mohamed was a kind and good man. Thank you very much. I want to come again.

Wonderful moments in Siwa - I would recommend this tour to anyone thinking of traveling to Egypt. Mohamed was so accommodating, had so much knowledge to share and the friendliest tour guide. We travelled from Cairo to Siwa and arrived to a beautiful hotel with breakfast ready for us. Mohamed is a Siwa local, so he was full of information you couldn’t get with any other tour. We visited many historical sites, the desert, the salt lakes and a local camp. The food was delicious, and the trip well planned so nothing was rushed and we could enjoy the beauty of every stop in Siwa. Mohamed made sure our trip to Siwa is something we will never forget.

Amazing Tour! Best of Siwa - Highly Recommend!! - We had the most amazing time on this tour. By far my favourite place in Egypt. We traveled from Australia, Mohamed was in contact with us from the moment we booked until the moment we arrived - making the journey from Cairo to Siwa seamless. The accommodation that was booked for us was amazing. The room was spacious and hospitality above expectations. I initially booked this trip because I wanted to see the salt lakes however Mohamed made sure that we discovered so much more! Mohamed shared all his expert knowledge on the historical sites we visited. Being a local to Siwa he provided us more information than we thought possible. Everything was planned perfectly, making sure we weren’t rushed at any stop and were able to take in the beauty of Siwa. The highlights for me was the Salt Lakes and the sunset safari in the desert. I would recommend this tour to anyone thinking of traveling to Egypt! Mohamed is the most accommodating, knowledgeable and friendly tour guide.
