Great experience for history nerds - Dina was an excellent tour guide and tied together multiple threads from Pharonic, Coptic, Islamic phases of Egyptian history to explain details not in the official tour or explained on the placards. This isn't my first visit to Cairo (I've been coming at least once a year for a decade), and agreed with my spouse to get a guide. Spouse is a teacher and history buff and she really enjoyed it. Dina was well worth it, and she and the driver were incredibly flexible after a very informative few hours. I'd recommend this team to anyone first time or veteran visitor.

Perfect tour of an incredible museum - We had a fantastic morning exploring the GEM with Mario! He and the driver picked us up promptly at our hotel and whisked us to the museum, where Mario gave us a fantastic highlights tour that really had just the right pace - not too rushed, but not overwhelming. We would wholeheartedly recommend a tour with Mario and will be getting in touch again next time we’re in Egypt!

A wonderful private guided tour! - My cousin and I are so happy we chose this private guided tour rather than the tour offered by our tour group. I don't know how a group of 30 could have possibly had an experience as private and personalized as we did. I want to give our guide, DINA, a special shout-out. She was very knowledgeable about the items in the GEM and how we should move through the museum to have the best experience. It was particularly crowded on the day we went and DINA made sure to keep us together, which really was not that easy. I would highly recommend this tour and hope that you are lucky enough to get DINA as your guide

Spectacular - There isn’t much to say other than spectacular! If you have any interest in the civilisation of the pharaohs this is the place to visit.
Our guide Simon was also excellent and very knowledgeable. A big thanks to her! Without a proper guide will not be the same.

Gran Egyptian Museum visit - It was a perfect visit provided by Twitter Egypt Travel. They arranged a custom trip for us. They picked us up at the airport, and got us through quickly.
The visit to the museum was amazing. Our guide Dina was great. We learned so much information and history during the visit. It was a visit well worth spent.

A brilliant visit .. and a brilliant guide. - The GEM is a truly wonderful experience and my friends and I were fortunate to have the kind and extremely knowledgeable Hoda guide us around it.. and answer our questions.
Hoda offered expert insights and explanations but still gave us plenty of time to wander and take photos. We never felt rushed or that our questions were silly.
It was a great experience. Thank you, Hoda!

Great Tour! - Gina (our guide) and Mario (our driver) were both amazing! We got a great tour of the museum but note it will not be fully open until after November 4 I believe. Everything we saw was incredible, Gina taught us a lot about the history and was very kind. 5 star review for their tour and punctuality. Recommend them both!

Wow! What a great tour! - Hoda was amazing and even added another museum at the last minute at our request - and made the whole day a fun learning experience. She is a top tour guide with immense knowledge. Highly recommend.

Make the Cairo Museum in addition to this one - The exterior as well as the lobby are beautiful. Regarding the interior rooms, we liked less, we preferred the Cairo Museum.
I think it will be better once the museum is complete, so we will come back when it is complete.
