Hello, my name is Moustafa, I am an English speaking tour guide, professional Egyptologist, graduated from faculty of archaeology, Egyptology section, Cairo university, ( not easy to join this faculty, since Egypt recently interested to raise a new generation of archaeologists to excavate, dig, and write about ancient Egypt. Honestly, Am looking for those, who want to learn about Ancient Egypt, how they lived, acted, their society..., together we mix both history we know with the new research and the new excavations. I specialize in customizing tours all over Egypt and the new excavations, since I am already working on that. Most of my tours are couples and families, so you can ask freely and you will find your answers with me. I do tours in Cairo (Pyramids, museums, Islamic, Coptic), quick trips from Alexandria to Cairo, day trips to Cairo, overnight in Cairo, generally all kinds of Cairo and Giza trips (1 day to 5 days trip), Luxor, Aswan, cruises between Luxor & Aswan, and, of course, all Alexandria tours, Alfayoum tours, etc. Your smallest wish is my desire ! Safety and comfort come first, I never drive and guide at the same time, I hire A/C vans with licensed drivers from the Ministry of Tourism. I will provide the new research, the new and different theories according to the SCAN projects, diggings and the new excavations. I finished my Masters in Egyptology, doing my PHD now, reading & writing ancient Egyptian languages (Hyroglyph+ Demotic + Heratic +Coptic). Furthermore, in the summertime, I work at various archaeological digs and I teach students in my faculty, the Egyptology, the Hieroglyphs, and how to dig. I Finished my Masters Degree, and about to finish my PHD soon. Member of the Supreme council of digging in Sakkara & Dahshour. Licensed tour guide (English/Italian)from the Egyptian ministry of tourism & member in the Egyptian general tourist guides syndicate (EGTGS). Member in the Supreme council of the underwater monuments ( Cleopatra city).. Working on the new excavations by the Supreme council of antiquities since I'm an expert Egyptologist. My pleasure to guide you! I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experience.

Overview of your Cairo tour

Ever since I was a child, I used to do this tour with my family during winter and summer time. Enjoy sitting in A/C van watching the roatds, highways and different areas. Let me show you the wonders of Egypt, from an Egyptologist view point doing excavations with the Supreme Council of Antiquities. Explore the difference in culture between Cairo and Alexandria, even the sites and artifacts. We visit Giza Pyramids, the Sphinx, the valley temple, Saqqara, the new excavations, Memphis, the ancient Capital and talk about what we are excavating for now. Another day we do museums, citadel, the alabaster mosque beside the ancient churches. Then it is time to do an overday to Alexandria and visit the Catacombs of Kom El Shokafa, the amphitheatre, the new library, site of the ancient lighthouse which is Quitbey citadel now. It is a highly recommended tour for those who are interested to do as much as possible in a short time.
