Aly E.
Aly, an Egyptian citizen, Egyptologist, and officially authorized as English speaking tourist guide for more than two decades. I have a profession (tour guiding) that enables me to meet new people every now and then. I love showing people around our great country. The ancient Egyptian civilization, the culture of modern Egyptian people are always inspiring for many people. The monuments erected by them are not only massive edifices to astonish us, but they bear witness for the great people once inhabited this part of the world. Having studied all the accumulated layers of the Egyptian history, living all my life surrounded by these unbeatable phenomena, and choosing to be the interpreter of the silent monuments (as many think they are !), made me feel having a moral responsibility rather than telling people about the great predecessors, show them the great ancestors we are nowadays, make tourists feel like they have a second homeland or even a second family in Egypt. Flexibility, passion, and willingness to help people having the most of their time are integral parts of my character according to previous clients.

Emil F.
Hello! I'm your guide for this incredible Egyptian adventure, and let me tell you, Egypt runs through my veins. I was born and raised in Luxor, a city cradled by ancient temples, I've been surrounded by monuments and travelers since childhood. This sparked a lifelong fascination with Egyptology, and I knew I wanted to share this passion with others. My journey to becoming your guide wasn't just about memorizing facts. I honed my language skills – English, French, and even German – to bridge the gap between cultures. I then worked with leading tour companies, but I dreamed of a better experience for visitors. So, I delved into the world of business, studying economics and accounting. Why? Because a smooth trip is essential! I was inspired by global tourism models, I even traveled to Canada to learn about exceptional customer service and food hygiene. Egypt from the Inside Out: Imagine a journey that encompasses the heart of Nubia to the cool Mediterranean breeze – that's what I strive for. My experience guiding people from all walks of life ensures a truly inclusive experience. Your Personalized Egyptian Experience: Whether you seek the iconic Pyramids or hidden gems like the Hanging Church, I'm your expert guide. My carefully curated tours nourish the mind and soul, delving deep into Egypt's rich history and archaeology. More Than Just Sightseeing: I believe in responsible tourism. My programs encourage interaction, learning, and a connection with nature. At least one eco-tourism stop is always included! Your Comfort and Safety are My priorities. From avoiding hassles to ensuring a safe and respectful environment, I'm here to make your trip seamless. Your preferences are top priority, and open communication is key. There are no hidden costs or sales pressure—just a genuine desire to share the magic of Egypt with you. Let's explore Egypt together!

Cairo Tour Reviews
“Intelligent and honest guide”
Aton is punctual, professional and most importantly informative and articulate. He knows so much about the Egyptian timeline I’m sure he was a university professor in the past. Also Aton showed me how the locals lived as well as being flexible with the tours. I can highly recommend Aton for showing the sites of Cairo Giza and Saqqura- Dan

“Truely experienced guide”
Our trip to Egypt would have been very different without the expert guidance of Aref. He made everything possible to make our stay comfortable and safe. We learned a lot about Egypt not only of its history but also about daily life and customs. He selected good drivers, restaurants where we could try local and delicious food and shared lively conversations. He has many years of experience and his many contacts are very useful to get things done. We really enjoyed the trip he organized for us. It was exactly what we wanted. We can strongly recommend him.
