“Memorable trip to Minya/Minia and Amarna Adventure with Experts”

There are not enough words to describe how special the visit to Minya/Minia was with the planning of Mustafa and his team to guide me. I gave Mustafa my ideas of a few sites that I wanted to explore around tell el-Amarna (Akhetaten) and he had a professional driver, Mohamad, and a guide, Dr. Marwa, to make one of the most memorable and heartfelt experiences of my life. Mohammad picked me up each day at the time we agreed upon, was engaging, friendly, and very hospitable for the 4 days of the trip. He and Dr. Marwa are both local Minya natives which is helpful to navigate to the different sites, plan pick-ups, lunches, and extra parts of the trip like a sunset Nile cruise and a site that we had extra time to see. Dr. Marwa was an excellent and highly educated and passionate guide for each site. She could explain each wall and scene like no other guide in Egypt as I already went to Cairo, Luxor, Karnak, and other places for 7 days before scheduling this solo trip and she is the best! We had options at each site depending on whose tomb I wanted to see and she accommodated me. There were more than just ancient sites as we talked all day, shared memories and food, created special moments together, and relaxed with tea and the best views in Minya. I highly recommend booking with Mustafa as he ensures his 5-star team takes cares of you during the trip and Mohamad and Dr. Marwa are part of the most important ancient sites experience of 1,000 lifetimes. Thank you all.

It was an absolute pleasure arranging this journey for you and bringing your ideas and interests to life. I am delighted that you had the opportunity to discover its hidden treasures beyond the usual tourist routes. I will certainly share your kind words with Mohamed and Dr. Marwa. They will be incredibly happy to know how much you appreciated their hospitality, professionalism, knowledge, and passion. They are truly wonderful members of our team, and I am proud of them. You will always be welcome in Egypt, and I sincerely hope our paths cross again for another adventure. Until then, consider Minya your second home! With my warmest regards and deepest appreciation, Mustafa

“Amarna tombs and Akhetaten”

Mohamed was a great guide, very professional and knowledgeable, and made this part of my trip worthwhile. It's not any easy place to get to and without his assistance I would not have had access to Akhenaten's Royal Tomb and what remains of Akhetaten. Highly recommend!
