This is a must visit museum when visiting Cairo and having an experienced Egyptologist with you like Hosney will make the experience even better. Definitely worth your while :)

Hosny is the best possible guide you can find! He organized a full day of museum and sightseeing, we were always in the right pace and he was all day keep an eye on us and trying to give us the best experience we could have. I will definitely book with him on my next visit.

Hosny did a great job of explaining Egypt history timeline without getting overly detailed. He was helpful in going where our interests were. It would have been better if he took us through the mummy section but guides aren't allowed? He also took us to a spice shop which was interesting but I think we over paid for what we bought.

What a great way to start our trip to Egypt. Hosny was very prompt, and a masterful guide of the city and the history of Egypt and Cairo. He introduced us to some of the gems of Cairo.

We wanted to make the most of our time in Cairo and Hosni was the perfect person for this. After spending the previous day with him exploring Coptic Cairo, we spent the morning at the Egyptian Civilisation Museum. Hosni is a fabulous guide and he makes the history exciting and makes it come alive. It is clear that he has a deep passion for history, Egyptology and instils this so naturally in those he looks after. You come away fascinated, and though there is so much history to be told, you still crave more! He helped us look around the key highlights and was always very flexible and happy to h

Hosni was such a great tour guide, this tour needed to be bespoke as we had a flight in the afternoon. We had a smooth pick up from our hotel and a great tour of the museum for a few hours - the museum doesn’t get as much press as the GEM but is fantastic and well worth it. Drop off at the airport was very smooth after. Thank you Hosni!!!
