  We had a great day with Mostafa. Punctual pick up from our hotel. Very friendly and chatty throughout the day. He was patient, helped getting discounts from the shops and what appreciated that he was upfront with wanting to make us happy and gave us the various options we had. He also advised us on what to visit. He was giving us time to take pictures and wander around. Mostafa was also knowledgeable and funny. After warning us about fake products, he asked us if we, without any pressure, wanted to visit a papyrus and oil/perfume shop government owned. Since we were early for the lunch, we decided to see them and we just saw some samples and left without buying and at no time felt pressured. Our driver, also called Mostafa was also friendly and provided snacks and water every time we were picked up to go to different spots. The car was clean and in great condition. The lunch included was a buffet in a location that has some deals with the company, the food was okay, it was mainly used mainly by tour groups and their guides. We had a great day and learned a lot, started at 8am with our pick up and finished at 6:30pm. I would advise this tour.

  I had an unforgettable experience visiting the Pyramids of Giza and the Egyptian Museum with Mostafa as my guide. From the very beginning, he made everything easy and comfortable, helping us avoid crowds and enjoy every moment without stress. His knowledge of ancient Egyptian history is impressive, but what made the tour special was the way he explained things in a simple and engaging way that never felt like a lecture.Standing in front of the pyramids was already incredible, but hearing the stories and historical details brought the whole place to life. At the museum, he guided us through the most important highlights and explained the artifacts in a way that made us truly understand ancient Egyptian civilization. He was patient, friendly, and always happy to answer questions.If you want a guide who is professional, kind, and genuinely passionate about his country, I highly recommend Mostafa. This was honestly one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had.🥰👏

  habibi mostafa .I honestly don’t think I could have asked for a more perfect day in Egypt. From the very first moment, everything felt easy, welcoming, and incredibly special — all thanks to our amazing guide, Mostafa. Our day started at the Egyptian Museum, and instead of just looking at statues and artifacts, I felt like I was traveling back in time. Mostafa didn’t just explain history — he told stories that made every piece come alive. The way he connected ancient Egyptian life, kings, and beliefs made the visit unforgettable. I learned more in a few hours than I ever imagined I would. After the museum, we headed to the Pyramids of Giza, and seeing them in real life was truly emotional. Photos don’t prepare you for their size or energy. Mostafa knew exactly where to go for the best views and photos, and he made the whole experience relaxed and fun.One of my favorite moments was the camel ride — something I was a little nervous about at first, but it turned into one of the highlights of the trip! Riding through the desert with the pyramids behind us felt like a dream. Everything was organized perfectly and I always felt safe and comfortable. We also stopped to experience beautiful local oils and perfumes, and it was such a lovely cultural touch. The scents were incredible, and learning how they are made added another layer to understanding Egyptian traditions. What made the day truly special wasn’t just the places — it was the feeling. Mostafa treated us like friends, not tourists. He was patient, knowledgeable, funny, and clearly passionate about his country. You can tell he genuinely loves sharing Egypt with people. If you want more than just a tour — if you want memories, stories, laughter, and a real connection to Egypt — I cannot recommend him enough. This was easily one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had, and a day I will never forget 🥰

  I traveled to Egypt from the USA alone, and I was a little nervous because I don’t usually travel solo. I booked a tour with Secrets of pharaos to visit the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum. my guide, Mostafa, came to my hotel on time with a clean car, and our driver Mohamed was great too. Mostafa first took me to the Pyramids ,he’s very knowledgeable and super helpful. We went to the best panoramic spots to take photos, and he even helped me get great shots because he’s really good at photography.He explained so many interesting secrets about ancient Egyptian civilization and the greatness of the Pyramids area, and he answered all my questions. Honestly, I didn’t feel like I was traveling alone in Egypt ,it felt like I had a real Egyptian friend showing me around.After that, we had lunch ,a traditional Egyptian food that was really tasty and fresh . Later, I told Mostafa I wanted to see some essential oils, so he took me to a local factory where I found the most amazing oils I’ve ever seen. I bought a lot because they’re so expensive back home.Then we went to the Grand Egyptian Museum. The museum is absolutely stunning ,one of the most beautiful museums I’ve ever been to ,and Mostafa’s explanations were super clear and fun. I really enjoyed every moment of the day. It was an amazing day, and I totally recommend Mostafa and Secrets of pharaos to anyone looking for a fun and excitingEgyptian,experience ,especially solo travelers like me and 🇺🇸 American people 🥰.

  Our day at the Pyramids of Giza and the Grand Egyptian Museum was absolutely incredible and easily the highlight of our trip to Egypt. Our guide made everything smooth, fun, and completely stress-free. One thing we really appreciated was how he protected us from tourist scams and pushy sellers around the pyramids. As first-time visitors to Egypt, that made us feel safe and relaxed so we could fully enjoy the experience. He is extremely knowledgeable and explained history in a simple and engaging way. He also turned out to be an amazing photographer and helped us take some of the best photos of our entire trip. He even took us to hidden spots around the pyramids that we would never have found on our own — quiet places with unbelievable views. The Grand Egyptian Museum visit was equally impressive thanks to his detailed explanations. Highly recommend booking with him if you want a real and authentic experience.

  Exploring the pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum with our guide was one of the most memorable experiences we’ve ever had while traveling. From the beginning, he made us feel safe and comfortable, helping us avoid scams and unnecessary pressure from vendors. That alone made a huge difference for us as visitors. His knowledge of Egyptian history is incredible, and he shares information with passion and clarity. What made the day extra special was that he took us to secret viewpoints and quiet areas that felt untouched and authentic. He is also a professional photographer — our pictures look amazing and truly capture the magic of the day. The museum visit became a real journey through history because of his storytelling. This tour exceeded all our expectations.
