Amazing Half-Day Tour in Cairo! - We did a private half-day tour of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo with Hosni. He was friendly, punctual, and shared interesting information about the museum’s highlights. Thank you, Hosni, for guiding us through such an impressive collection! We recommend him if you want a guided visit to the museum!

Informative and fun tour, King Tut gallery - This was out first tour in Egypt. The museum has so much history and many many artifacts. We were really grateful to have our guide throughly explain the main events And highlighted items in the museum. It really helped us appreciate it even more! Hasni our our guide is such good people, he brought so much light, positive energy, and knowledge to the table. This was a quicker tour. After the Muesum we visited a papyrus shop, that showed us how to make paper. It’s expensive to buy but free and cool to watch tutorial. We had the choice to go to a gold and silver shop to make a Kartush jewelry and customize. Prices can range from $25-300+ for jewelry. We also last visited and oil shop, to get to know Egypts natural oils and fragrances. This is unique experience even if you don’t buy anything it’s worth doing and at no extra cost. Shop people are kind, everyone wants to sell of course don’t be afraid to make friends and say no thank you if you don’t want or simply tell them your budget to buy so they can help you to find the best item. 10/10 and go see King tuts famous gold burial mask and collection.

Knowledgeable tour to see the highlights of the museum with a private guided guide - The private guided tour with Hosni was brilliant. He knew that with the two teens (13/16) we didn’t need to see everything but gave us the highlights. He talked us through all the elements we saw. You could see that he was passionate about the history. It was amazing to see the King Tut mask as well as everything else. This was part of a wider tour on our day trip which included the pyramids and the Bazaar.

Great historical day in Cairo - Hosni is a very knowledgeable guide and we learnt a lot with him. Be prepared for the long queue in the old Egyptian Museum to see Tutunkhamun. The new Grand Egyptian Museum in Giza is very impressive.
