Mostafa was very energetic, positive and flexible. He’s also very knowledgeable about the subject matter and taught us about hieroglyphs. We had fun visiting the pyramids in Giza, local papyrus shop as well as Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Book a tour with Mostafa and you will have a great experience!

Words cannot describe what an unforgettable experience I‘ve had! Mostafa made this so special and gave us the feeling to dive into the era of pharaohs. We had driven early in the morning as strangers and came as habibis!! Mostafa have a great knowledge about the Egyptian history, but he also knows how to tell about it in pictures and with passion! By the way he takes the best photos in front of the pyramides or the Sphinx. Furthermore he showed us the culture of Cairo with his whole heart! He wanted to make us happy - and he did! My highlight was the boat trip on the Nile where we danced on the water - such a moment of happiness and freedom in a city I haven’t met before… The day was full of worthy memories and surely one of the best in my life!! So thankful that I met habibi Mostafa!! Your habibi Tanja <3

Unfortunately, we were not picked up by the organizer of viator today 13.03.2026. Even 6 hours after the start of the tour no information from the organizer. Will we ever get our money back? Looks like a rip-off! Be careful!
Dear guest, Thank you for your message. I’m very sorry for the misunderstanding. Before the tour date, I sent an email to inform you that unfortunately the German-speaking guide was not available and offered an English-speaking guide as an alternative. I kindly asked for confirmation, but I did not receive a reply. Without confirmation I was unable to proceed with the tour. I always try to communicate with guests in advance to avoid any inconvenience. If there was any confusion, I sincerely apologize and I wish you a wonderful time in Egypt.
Mustafa was a great guide and was extremely informative. it was a hectic day but he managed to make sure it all ran smoothly. Would 1000% recommend
