          Helpful, Knowledgeable and Interesting
          Mohammed was very helpful, knowledgeable and interesting. As many of the places to visit do not have many information boards it was invaluable to have Mohammed to tell us about what we were seeing and so truly appreciate the beautiful landmarks of Luxor. He was flexible to the timings we wanted for our tours and gave excellent recommendations as to what to visit. Thank you so much Mohammed for making our short time in Luxor awe inspiring.

          Outstanding Tour Guide!!!
          We had Dr Mo as our guide for 6 days from Luxor down to Aswan, and he truly made our experience incredible! Extremely knowledgeable, he enriched every place we visited with his insight about the history, mythology and symbolism of what we were seeing. Such a warm and kind-hearted person, he was a great resource for every question we could possibly have, always going above and beyond! He provided some extra material to help us learn some key phrases in Arabic and decipher some of the hieroglyphics and also taught us a game variation of Senet he had created and developed (which we brought back home and taught to my niece and nephew!). Everything about his passion and dedication to Egyptian history and culture was unparalleled. Dr Mo will definitely be the first call we make the next time we are planning a trip back to Egypt!

          Great travel experience with Dr.Mo!
          我們在Philae temple遇見到了Dr. Mo在帶一團一家三口欣賞神廟,我們聽到了他對牆上painting的一些解釋,我們認為他真的很好。 所以我們索要了他的號碼,並想聘請他作為我們在盧克索和阿斯旺剩下的旅行的導遊。 他說一口流利的英語,並且是了不起的導遊。 他可以幫助你安排所有你感興趣的汽車、活動和旅遊。 就問他吧! 旅遊細節和報價非常合理,沒有高加價,質量超級好。 在旅行的剩餘時間裡,我們再也不需要擔心所有活動和汽車了。 他會為你照顧一切。 不再有騙局、困惑和溝通不暢🤣與Dr.Mo一起在埃及絕對是一次很棒的旅行經歷。 We met Dr.Mo in Philae temple, we heard a bit of his explanation about the painting on wall and we think he is really good. So we asked for his number and want to hire him as our guide for rest of our trip in Luxor and Aswan. He speaks fluent English and legit amazing tour guide. He can help you to arrange all cars, activities and tours that you are interested in. Just ask him! The tour details and offers price is very reasonable, no high mark up and super good quality. We never need to worry about the all activities and cars anymore for rest of the trip. He will take care everything for you. No more scam, confusion and miscommunication 🤣 Definitely a great travel experience in Egypt with Dr. Mo.

          a gentle Doctor that will unleash Egypt
          Egypt has a very complicated and long history that spans for more or less 5 thousand years. Explaining all this history could get quite impossible also going trough all the temples and archaeological sites you can see. Yet Dr. Mo does this very well, trying not to over load your mind with to much information and giving what I found to be the proper amount of interest that makes you understand properly what you are looking at. His kindness and preparedness are really top of the point and when questioned he always got very deep in the matter. Also modern Egypt can be discussed and had a very good time around with him on the steamboat Sudan.

          It was a Great experience with Mr. Mo
          Despite the short time I had available to go on a tour, Mr Mo made a personal itinerary to visit many places and take advantage of the time. His tour guides were amazing and helpful, excellent English and service. I fully recommend Mr Mohamed service

          Luxor Temple with Dr. Mo!
          This was our 4th Tour with Dr. Mo. Without his guidance and explanations we would not have gained a fraction of the knowledge and understanding of the history of the Luxor Temple Complex. He was able to explain the meanings behind the carvings and hieroglyphs and to explain the construction and design of the Temple Complex. While we had spent time with different Guides while in Cairo and in Aswan, who we are wonderful and professional, Dr. Mo was, by far, the most knowledgeable and made our time with him a "beyond expectation" experience.

          Excellent local guide.
          Mohammed is an expert on pharaonic Egypt and a very warm individual generous with his time. He continues to support my remote research in Ptolemaic Egypt with specific photographs taken on site months after we have visited. He is able to pitch his content at various levels, from fellow academics to young children. It was a pleasure to travel with him.

          A very humorous and kind tour guide
          Dr. Mo will explain the history and architecture of ancient Egyptian temples to us in a humorous and interesting way, making it easier for us to understand. Additionally, he is a very friendly friend and is happy to answer any questions about Egyptian history. Also, He is also a board game designer, we will often play the board game together during our trip.

          Happy Trip in Egypt
          I had travelled Egypt many years ago, the most amazing place is pyramid at Cairo, how to build in over 4000 years before? My question is appeared in my mind still now. The other interesting sightseeing is nile river where is attractive for us. Of course, the culture and history of Egypt is also amazing especially visiting Cairo museum which showed a lot of meaningful things. Finally, our tour leader Dr. Mohamed Senousy also played important role to introduce much Egypt information to increase our understanding of Egypt. His image and presentation always in my mind, very good!

          Fascinating in-depth tour of Aswan and Luxor
          Dr Mo was really brilliant - we wanted more archaeology than is the norm, and he really took trouble to show us the lesser known sights - his academic background was particularly helpful, and he guided us with authority and deep knowledge, as well as great humour!

          Dr.Mo's great Egyptian Tour
          Dr Mo was truly an excellent tour guide for our family. The detailed explanation he had for every single place we visited really gave our trip a more meaningful experience. He was kind enough to answer every single one of historical question that was asked and recommended us beautiful food places throughout the trip. He was very kind and welcoming to our family - who often had hard times understanding English. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have known the historical significance of the places we visited. We are so grateful towards Dr Mo for making such a memorable experience for our family. We felt so comfortable the entire time we were with him and was sad to say goodbye! By the way, he takes excellent photos and holds a very good conversation!

        Dr. Mo is the perfect guide. He constantly balances history and anecdotes, transporting his guests into the mysterious stories of Egypt. He has an excellent didactic propensity and if you happen to ask him anything about board games based on Egypt of which he is a great connoisseur. We look forward to returning with his tour to discover new wonders.
