Moustafa and a driver picked us up at our hotel and drove us to the GEM where he guided us through the museum at a pace that was perfect for us to see the highlights and avoid the crowds. He made it very interesting and efficient, which was exact what we had in mind. We then visited a local restaurant where we sampled a variety of delicious local specialties. It was a great way to start our Egypt vacation!GEM tour and Lunch

We really enjoyed our half-day guided tour with Moustafa! We were a group of 5 adults and one 3-year-old child, and he catered extremely well to all of our needs and interests: he explained the history and mythology of the site, led us to less busy places and into a small tomb we would have never found ourselves, was always upbeat, personable and considerate and made sure that the child in our group had a great time too. At the end of our tour, Moustafa showed us a local lunch spot where the food was absolutely delicious — again, we wouldn't have found it on our own.Giza pyramids off the beaten track :)

We had a wonderful time with Moustafa. He is a lovely person and extremely knowledgable. He customized our trip and was very aware of our pace and level of adventurous spirit. For us, it was a whirlwind of activity and we loved every minute. I would not say this was a “food tour”, but rather a complete experience of local culture. Highly recommend Moustafa! Great guide, wonderful experience

I had just one day to spend on Giza plateau … Moustafa was immensely knowledgeable and bought the history to life … an amazing day of connection with the past and long memories of all the best sights! A fully paid up member of the human race, Moustafa was a joy to spend time with and was clearly committed to ensuring I enjoyed the day. Great value too especially if it’s a long trip to Cairo. Hoping to return and see him again 🙂Thanks Moustafa 🙂

Moustafa was more than just a tour guide; he was a knowledgeable friend who shared his country's rich history with us. His customized itinerary allowed us to experience Cairo and the Pyramids in a way that was both informative and enjoyable. We were especially impressed by his ability to answer our questions and adapt the tour to our interests. We would highly recommend Moustafa to anyone visiting Egypt.memorable adventure

Mustafa took us to both GEM and the Egyptian museum in Cairo as well as the Giza pyramids and the Sphinx. He was so very friendly and helpful, giving us many options to make things easier for us. He is very well liked in the guide community and that was both wonderful and helpful in getting us around.Giza and museums with Moustafa

We had one full day in Cairo and we wanted to see as much as we possibly could. Moustafa made sure thats exactly what we did! He is very connected in the community. He made our entry into Egypt very smooth as well as transportation to our hotel. We met him the next day right on time and he took us to the pryamids, we got to see a tomb, ride a camel to sphynx, see how paper is made, shops, markets, a boat tour on the nile, perfume, and more! It was a great daySee Egypt with Moustafa!

Mostafa's knowledge of Cario's culture, food and history made this tour the perfect way to experience the city. He took us to places that we would never have found by ourselves and made us feel as if we were just spending time with a local friend and we also felt totally safe and comfortable the whole time. He was able to not only explain the food and Cairo as it is today, but also is extremely knowledgeable in ancient Egyptian history, given that he is also an Egyptologyst. I will definitely be checking out his other tours the next time I visit Cairo. So glad we found him and I cannot recommend him enough as your guide when you visit Egypt. Perfect way to experience Cairo.

I thank Moustafa from the bottom of my heart for sharing his love, experiences and deep knowledge and understanding of Egypt, its people and lovely places; his tour was exceptional and he touched on all the important sightseeing areas and was full of energy and excitement and made our trip with him most memorable and we made the most , if not more, of the time we had there!! He made us laugh, take pictures wherever possible, made us understand and feel Egypt and its past..and though the time was short.. I felt I was there for longer! He looked after us so well throughout the trip- ensuring we were comfortable, had eaten- and shopped!! I pray we meet him soon to share more lovely experiences in Egypt- I would definitely recommend him as the perfect guide and friend in Egypt; such lovely people are hard to come by!! Thanks Moustafa for everything! We had an amazing time with youIn Egypt with Moustafa!!

Mustafa war ein herausragender Guide während meines Besuchs im Nationalmuseum in Kairo. Seine Professionalität und fundierten Kenntnisse über die Geschichte der Pyramiden und der Pharaonen machten die Tour zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis. Er verstand es, komplexe Themen anschaulich und verständlich zu erklären, was es mir erleichterte, die faszinierenden Zusammenhänge zu erfassen. Besonders beeindruckend war, wie er die Geschichten lebendig werden ließ und interessante Anekdoten einfließen ließ. Ich kann Mustafa nur wärmstens empfehlen – er hat meine Erwartungen übertroffen!Unvergesslich! -> Unforgettable!

Moustafa was outstanding. Extremely knowledgeable about every element of Egyptian history, very enthusiastic. He loves Egypt. Explained the history of each site, made the visit much more interesting. Took to a "safe" place for an Egyptian lunch which was also fantastic. Would use Moustafa each and every time we were to visit. Can't recommend highly enough! Salam Moustafa!Outstanding experience

I highly recommend Moustafa for anyone looking to see the highlights as well as experience a little bit off the beaten track.Moustafa was excellent!

Moustafa didn't make me a tour in a traditional sense, but he took me to Giza pyramids to interview some travelers and tour guides there since I was writing an article about the tourism in Egypt as a journalist. Moustafa has a lot of friends at the pyramids since he has been making tours and excavating there for a long time and thanks to this it was easy to find interviewees. And besides making interviews, I was on the back of a camel for the first time in my life thanks to one of his nice friends. Moustafa helped me without expecting anything in return, he is a very kind person, and this is one of the reasons why he is a great example of Egyptian soul, which is overall friendly and hospitable. Besides, Moustafa is very passionate about Egyptian culture and history, so if you really want to know about these subjects, he is an excellent tour guide for you!Discover Egyptian history, culture and soul with Moustafa

I don't know how to start, so I will start from the beginig. I decided I wanted to go to Egypt and found Moustafa's details on the internet. I liked the name so much and after reading what was written about him, I decided to contact him as this may be the best decision I made for the year 2013 Moustafa was great in the way he answerd me through emails, he was also willing to answer all my questions in every way. So I decided to book my holiday with him. Moustafa was on time at the hotel to meet me for what was to be a great journey. What I can say I just feel now that I want to return to Egypt, he was one of best guides I have ever met. His knowlegde is vast and his willingness to show me all the sites was realy a professional guide. I have been to many places all over the world an he is by far the Best guide I have met. I dont feel I have only visited pyramids but I really felt I was living with ancient egyptions he helped me feel as though I was Nefertiti or cleapatra..: it ws like a dream ...if you would like to tour Egypt book him ... You will have best time really. Thank you very much Moustafa! Hope to see you again in Egypt soon.Private tour in Egypt

Being 2 girls travelling to Egypt, we were definitely worried about our safety. However, Moustafa made us feel more than safe the entire time we were there. He picked us up directly from the airport, and took us around to the most amazing places in Cairo & Giza. The tour was extremely personalised, and he made sure that we were comfortable every step of the way. He is definitely one of the kindest and most pure hearted people I've met, and he never expects anything in return. His one ultimate priority is for you to enjoy Egpyt, which you definitely will if you take this tour with him! Due to his experience in Egyptian history and having excavated at many of the sites, he has a lot of connections which allows you to see and understand more of Egypt. Not at any point in the tour did we feel a threat to our safety, and we were always comfortable. Transport was extremely comfortable with full air conditioning. Egypt was definitely the best experience in my life, and I'm so glad we chose to go with Moustafa. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our time in Egypt & would go back with Moustafa any day!A Must Do!

Me and my friend had wonderful time with Moustafa exploring non-touristic corners of Cairo. We instantly caught great vibe lasting until the end of the trip. Moustafa adjusted the schedule of the trip to our needs very well. Also, modifying it on the go while getting to understand our keenness to experiencing real local flavors. We could understand Egyptian history and culture better through open-minded exchange of views. We could taste local food like koshari and sugar cane juice. Finally, we could see places which are not often visited by tourists yet worth exploring. If you opt for some quality time in Cairo and do not want to focus purely on touristic highlights, this is the option to go for. But please, be eager to explore, open-minded and warm like Moustafa to make the most of it. Moustafa, thank you for sharing your motto - do good and good finds you. Cairo for explorers

Moustafa organized an amazing 4 day top notch tour of Cairo and Luxor and Valley of the Kings. Despite our short time he made sure we got to experience all of the "best of " and spent a lot of time ensuring the trip was personalized to hit all of our top priorities - even including a trip to Mohammed Ali Street ( despite the crazy traffic ) so that my husband could check out the Egyptian hand drums! He was very flexible, accommodating and very knowledgable. Mustafa ensured every detail from arrival at the airport to our departure was looked after. When we went to Luxor he ensured we had a top notch hotel, guide and excellent drivers. Thank you!!!4 days in Egypt

First off, I highly recommend hiring a guide in Cairo. It's a large city and it isn't easy to get around. Being from the West it's also a little tough not understanding Arabic. My wife and I went to Cairo around Christmas on our honeymoon. We hired Moustafa for three days to help us learn about Egyptian history. He's worked at a lot of the sites there and has a huge love of Egypt, so he was a great choice. We've hired guides before and I can say beyond a doubt we liked Moustafa the best. The reason was that he was so enthusiastic to show us everything. He was genuinely excited to show us the sites he loved instead of just sitting there and letting us have "free time" for 90% of the tour. And he really went out of his way to show us some Egyptian culture and taste the local food. Also, he was very flexible. Our original itinerary had Alexandria in it. When the protests there got a little risky Moustafa offered to change over to Islamic Cairo. Just a little bit of a disclaimer here - like most tour guides he generally won't talk about religion or politics but my wife and I wanted to learn more about Islam while we were in Cairo and Moustafa really did a great job explaining it to us and showing off the city's beautiful mosques. He also brought the stories to life - he's probably the most animated tour guide I've ever had. After Cairo my wife and I went to Luxor. Moustafa gave us great advice and gave us a good deal on a guide there that we really liked as well. One more note - we're from the US and most of our friends there seem to think that Egypt is a little sketchy right now due to the protests. We never felt that at all. If anything it was exciting to be there when people were voting on their constitution. I highly recommend visiting it and we already want to go back! (make sure you go to Luxor as well - Egypt is so much more than just the pyramids!)Moustafa loves Egypt!!!

Thank you Moustafa for our lovely time in Cairo! You were friendly, funny, informative and enthusiastic and it was very clear you love what you do which made us also fall in love with Egypt! Myself and a girl friend, both mid-20s travelled together. I contacted Moustafa in May for our August trip. He was prompt in replying to our emails and even called to confirm our two day itinerary. We wanted to cover ALOT in two days and he made sure we did it all without feeling rushed or like we didn't properly cover our itinerary. In fact he went above and beyond our itinerary and added in extra sites and took us to great places for amazing Egyptian food as well as really experience Cairo life, like taking the Metro and the local taxis etc. The hotel he suggested and booked for us was also very accommodating with great service. He also made suggestions (without being pushy but simply suggesting) which we are very glad he did. For example, the camel ride to the other side of the Pyramids of Giza with an incredible view of all three Pyramids and the Tanora show in the evening. He also took us to see a carpet school, papyus making shops etc , all with great hospitality and never pushy for you to buy. I have seen a few people's reviews saying Moustafa tours are expensive but for what you get it certainly is not! It is incredible value for money as he made sure we did more than just our itinerary! Thank you again Moustafa! You are AMAZING!AMAZINGGGG

Just returned from a 7 day private tour of Egypt with Moustafa in Cairo and Zack in Luxor and Aswan. Being three women traveling alone, safety was our top concern. Not only did we feel safe at all times, but our guides provided us with history and lots of laughs! We submitted our own ideas and Moustafa listened to our needs and put together a perfect itinerary. He was extremely responsive to every question and concern we had, and even took time to zoom with us before the trip. I highly recommend Moustafa Egyptian Tours. The drivers were excellent, and we didn’t have any glitches along the way. I would recommend going in the winter months, as trips to the antiquities were often very hot. Bring your hat and sunscreen and a metal bottle that can hold cold water!A Magical Carpet Ride

Moustafa was knowledgeable and clear. He tailored the tour to our needs and when he saw we were interested in Islamic culture changed his route to take us to some fascinating sites well off the tourist track. He took us to a street falafel stall where the food was astonishingly good. We very much enjoyed our time with him and would recommend his services highly. Moustafa is an outstanding guide

It was an absolute delight to explore Egypt with Moustafa as our guide. His profound knowledge of Egyptian history, paired with his ability to intertwine historical facts with enchanting myths, made our journey not just informative, but truly mesmerizing. Moustafa’s expertise shines as he eloquently navigates through the annals of time, offering insights that are both profound and accessible. The security and comfort he provided allowed us to immerse ourselves fully in the stories of pharaohs and pyramids without a single worry. His narrative was as captivating as the sands of the Nile are ancient, reminding me of the wisdom of Ptahhotep: "Be a craftsman in speech, that thou mayest be strong, for the strength of one is the tongue, and speech is mightier than all fighting." Leaving Egypt, my son and I felt enriched, enlightened, and eager to learn more about this magnificent land. Moustafa didn’t just guide us through Egypt; he guided us through a magical history, alive with the echoes of the past.Unveiling the Mysteries of Egypt

Moustafa made Egypt magical for us! It has always been a dream of mine to go to Cairo but little did I know that all my dreams and expectations would be surpassed! Moustafa listens, helps, accommodates, and most of all ensures you are happy and comfortable at all times. He adapts the tour to suit your needs- where u want a quick cheap budget meal he knows where to take you, or where you would prefer finer 'dining' your requests are seen to. He is so knowledgeable and shares his passion and intensity for his country with you. He works through how you picture a perfect day out sightseeing along with his knowledge of best times of day to do things, traffic, visitor intensity and more to ensure your experience is logistical but personally tailor made. All promises made are delivered and from the smallest things that make the biggest difference- eg when we went to the night light show at the pyramids- we were promised good seating and a 'jump the queue' and this was delivered. He is with you at all times and ensures your safety eg at the markets where it can be quite daunting as a tourist- he informs you exactly what and what not to do ahead of time, but when u want some alone time e.g on the Nile dinner cruise my hubbie and I wanted to enjoy the magic of the boat over dinner as we cruised along the Nile, Moustafa ensures to allow you space to just be and take everything in. I could go back to Cairo tomorrow, all due to Moustafa ensuring the most amazing time in his magical land. We wanted to learn about the history of Egypt but whilst on holiday not everyone wants info overload you just want to enjoy the sights and views- this balance is maintained too- just speak up and Moustafa will once again accommodate you. He goes the extra mile to ensure you have fun, feel comfortable and just grow as passionate about Egypt as he is- he takes the most amazing photos of you to ensure you make and keep memories of your trip of a lifetime. Thank you Moustafa, over and over, you are one in a million!!!! Bianca Crawford from Jhb, SAA trip of a lifetime with Moustafa!!!

From the moment we met Moustafa at the Port of Alexandria it was obvious that we had chosen an outstanding tour guide. During the 3 hour drive to Cairo, Moustafa shared with us his love and understanding of Egypt, its people, culture and history. That alone was worth the price of the tour. We first visited the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Moustafa, realizing our time limitation, prioritized our viewing so that we would have time to appreciate what we we saw. A stop at the Market Place introduced us to the Egyptian people and their daily life. As the rich and deep color of the late afternoon sun was settling over Giza we saw the Pyramids and the Sphinx. What a memory!Moustafa shares his love of Egypt and its culture

We had the most incredible day in Cairo with Moustafa! We hung on his every word- so knowledgeable about all things there! We saw the pyramids, rode camels, went to the museum (also incredible with someone who actually knows what to see when you have limited time- we were there for one day) and ended with a sail on the Nile. I would recommend him and his people to anyone! Everyone in Cairo was so nice and welcoming, the area felt totally safe (we are Americans). Wonderful day we will never forget!Best. Guide. Ever!

To end our stay in Africa, my friends and I opted to do it in Cairo - Egypt, and we are very pleased that we have decided that. What a city! After some requests for informations to various agencies, we opted for Moustafa Egypt Tours because we had prompt response to all our questions and because what they offered us was exactly what my friends and I were looking for! Moustafa, experienced guide speaking excellent English, continued to amaze us with his knowledge of the ancient and present Egypt history. He took us in the desert, living with the Bedouin, made us sleep under the stars. Yes, he made us live a thrill of a lifetime! Without a doubt, I recommend to those who wish to visit Egypt and live an unbelievable experience to don’t hesitate and make business with Moustafa Egypt Tours. And, don’t hesitate to ask for Moustafa as a guide and as a funny partner and friend : he is simply amaaaazing! 😀 Elly yeshrab el-mâyya en-Nîl, lâzem rega3 fê Masr tâni!What a trip!

I wanted to thank you again for your wonderful guidance and friendship. We are constantly reminded of the wonderful things we saw and experienced in Egypt, much of which has root in what you taught and showed us. I have been watching a documentary on recent discoveries at Saqqara, and am amazed that we were privileged to go there and enter different tombs. J and I will watch it again together. I also appreciate our time in the mosque of Mohammed Ali in Cairo where you taught us of the five pillars of Islam. I still remember them, and the similarities to our faith. These and so many others are all precious memories, as well as the significance of the trip for J and myself in our new marriage. The trip came at a good time for us, as we continue to grow together. Sincerely, KBThank you to Moustafa

Memorable trip with my wife and our friends. The itinerary planned by Moustafa has given us a great overview of the main attractions but also a nice proximity with locals. I highly recomment the Nile cruise and the hot air balloon ride (over the Valley of the kings). We spent few days Hurghada to rest and enjoy the Red sea beach.Great trip in Egypt

My friend and I had a 12 hour layover in Cairo in June 2012. Moustafa met us at the airport with a welcoming smile and our unforgettable tour began. He shared his vast knowledge of the history of the country while we toured the pyramids of Giza, rode a camel, visited the Sphynx, learned about papyrus, and interacted with locals. His caring and easy-going personality made the day wonderful. When I return to Egypt, I will definitely request his services again. Thank you for a fantastic day, Moustafa!Highlights of Cairo with Moustafa

Egypt was a truly scintillating experience for us with the native guide Moustafa Yehia Sanad whose pure love for his country truly touched our hearts.. Multi-lingual, MA in Archaeology & Egyptology ( i think) & his countless shared experiences truly endeared as he was a true example of doing what you love, setting up his own tour company approximately 10 years ago.. Even sharing his love for Hieroglyphics with small lessons which made it seem so simple.. Fun pop quizzes to ensure we retained some memories & information.. A truly enlightening trip with a greater insight to Egypt, her great & rich history, socio-political-economic past & present.. InsyaAllah we will be back one day for the rest of Egypt! 😘😘😘Beautiful & Historical Egypt!

Moustafa of Moustafa Egypt Tours was our tour guide for a tour of the Great Pyramids of Giza. We actually rode a camel while we were there, too. The tour was amazing. We also went to the Sphinx where we took funny photos to look like we were kissing him on the nose. Moustafa took so much time with us and explained the ancient civilization and culture of Egypt and it’s peoples. We had so many questions and he answered all and even explained further in depth. We all had a fantastic day and he made a great memory for us all. Egypt felt like a great country, we hope to visit again. Thank you Moustafa for your kindness.Pyramids of Giza

Moustafa was fantastic! We did a walking tour with Moustafa and he really was so knowledgeable. If you want to see some of the main sites with a mix of off the beaten path which other guides wouldn’t show you, I highly suggest doing a tour with Moustafa. He was also able to customise the tour for us based on our liking and was super flexible with what our interests are. Also got to see the top roof/gate of this beautiful mosque which has just been opened after many years. We were the only ones up there and it felt so surreal. What a time exploring Cairo

Всем доброго времени суток! )) Хотел бы поделиться своими впечатлениями от поездки в древнюю страну Египет и её главный город - Каир. В компании нашего гида Мустафы путешествие получилось ярким, запоминающимся и интересным. мы посетили всё, что могли и даже больше))) Одна только экскурсия в Каирский музей произвела огромное впечатление. Мне есть с чем сравнивать, так как езжу довольно много. И поэтому я рекомендую именно этого гида и его экскурсии. У Мустафы глубокие знания об истории его Родины и подавая информацию он сдабривает её интересными фактами. В общем всё было ок) Всем приятного отдыха в Древнем городе)Египет - колыбель цивилизации

More about me

Salam Alaikum my lovely travellers. I am an English/Russian speaking Egyptologist/Tour Guide Also I am the owner of Moustafa Egypt Tours.

We have been organising tours all over Egypt since 2000. I love Egypt and can only tell you what is in my heart and share with you my love for this great land,Nile,History,Locals,Pyramids and its people,You may check one of my books ( A Land Called Ancient Egypt ) The first book in English combine between civilization and the history of ancient Egypt together in one book, published on amazon, Highly recommend to read before visiting Egypt.

No matter how often you visit Egypt,there is always something new to see and discover. I don't know why this is, it's just the way things are in Egypt. As you drive through some of the busiest streets of Cairo towards Giza, you are surrounded on all sides by honking, bumper-to-bumper traffic, then suddenly without warning you see the Pyramids right before your eyes and you not only know where you are, you feel it too. It is the contrast between the old and new and the ease with which Egyptians bridge the gap that I find most amazing.
