Maryem H.
Hi there! My name is Maryem, and I love stories, adventures, and languages—the way they connect people across time and place. Egypt is full of all of these, and I would love to share them with you. I became a tour guide because I wanted a career that combined travel, culture, and meeting people from around the world. What started as curiosity became a journey I am truly grateful for. I studied history to become a licensed tour guide, and my passion for Egyptian history continues far beyond my studies. Whether you are fascinated by Ancient Egypt, curious about Islamic Cairo, or interested in Coptic history, I would be happy to guide you through Egypt’s rich and layered past. I believe storytelling has the power to bring silent stones and ancient places back to life, helping us connect with the people who came before us—and with one another. As someone who loves learning from different cultures, meeting travelers from around the world has always inspired me. I speak both English and Japanese, which allows me to connect with a wide range of visitors and create experiences that feel personal, engaging, and memorable. Beyond historical tours, I also enjoy creating off-the-beaten-path experiences, from cultural activities to nature adventures, tailored to what you are most excited to experience in Egypt. When you explore Egypt with me, I will show you the country through the eyes of a true Cairene who deeply loves her city—blending history, culture, and modern local life. From the timeless pyramids of Giza to the vibrant streets of Cairo and the coastal charm of Alexandria, I look forward to welcoming you and sharing my beloved country with you. Feel free to contact me and customize your ideal tour—I would be delighted to help you experience Egypt in a meaningful way.

I am an Egyptologist, heritage professional, and licensed freelance tour guide with over 15 years of experience in the field of Egyptian tourism and cultural heritage. I hold a Master’s degree in Heritage Conservation and Site Management from Brandenburg University of Technology in Cottbus-Senftenberg, Germany. My academic background, combined with a lifelong passion for Egyptian history, has shaped my career and deepened my dedication to sharing Egypt’s rich cultural legacy with the world. Born and raised in Giza, just a stone’s throw from the Giza Plateau, I’ve been immersed in the world of ancient history from an early age. Growing up within sight of the pyramids, along with being part of a family that includes many Egyptologists, inspired me to become one of Egypt’s tourism ambassadors. Throughout my studies and professional career, I’ve had the opportunity to travel extensively—both within Egypt and internationally. I’ve explored numerous cities abroad including Berlin, Dresden, Potsdam, Munich, Hamburg, Milan, Venice, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Brussels, Prague, and Vienna. I’ve also visited Saudi Arabia, Istanbul, Sapanca, and Bursa in Turkey. In Egypt, I’ve traveled across every governorate and region, gaining deep knowledge of the country’s diverse cultural, historical, and natural landscapes. It would be my pleasure to guide you through an unforgettable journey during your visit to Egypt—bringing its ancient wonders and vibrant culture to life through authentic storytelling and professional insight.

Cairo Tour Reviews
Laura V.
“An Outstanding Guide and a Wonderful Person”
I had the pleasure of doing a private walking tour of Cairo’s City of the Dead with Maryem, and it was one of the highlights of my trip to Egypt. Maryem is incredibly kind, warm, and genuine. Her English is impeccable, making every conversation effortless, and her knowledge of Cairo’s history and culture is outstanding. It’s obvious that she is passionate about what she does, and she shares her knowledge with authenticity and enthusiasm. She went above and beyond from the very beginning by arranging a pickup for me from my hotel in New Cairo and even coming out with the driver to meet me to make sure everything went smoothly. Throughout the tour, she took me to fascinating places that I never would have discovered on my own and provided thoughtful insights that brought everything to life. During the tour, I mentioned that I wanted to stop for a bite to eat, and Maryem chose a fantastic restaurant with incredible atmosphere and ambience. It was exactly the kind of local place I was hoping to experience and was the perfect break during the tour. At the end of the tour, she even let me use her phone as a hotspot so I could book an Uber and stayed with me until she knew my ride had arrived safely. It was such a thoughtful gesture and speaks volumes about the kind of person she is. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely caring guide in Cairo, don’t hesitate to book Maryem. She is absolutely wonderful, and I would happily tour with her again.

Maryem H.
Thank you so much, Laura, for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. It really means a lot to me. I'm so glad you considered this tour one of the highlight of your trip because it's a very very special one, and I always love it when travelers get to enjoy its uniqueness. It was truly my pleasure to meet such an elegant beautiful lady like you. As for the other things with the ride or the hotspot that's nothing, and the least I can do you're guest in my city and you trusted me so I have to make sure you're safe and happy. I can't wait to see you again if you ever have the chance to come back to Cairo. :)

“Excellent Service”
I had Waleed help me arrange a 3 day tour of Cairo along with airport pickup and drop. I was pretty impressed with the way it was handled right from the start to the end. Waleed got Nabil (Our Driver for three days) and Abdulrahman (Our guide for the 3 days) for us and we were not disappointed. Both were extremely professional and Abdul in particular was very knowledgeable and helped to explain facts very clearly ad my kids (especially my son) enjoyed that a lot. I would recommend them in a heartbeat and they are totally professional in their approach and handling their clients. Job well done and kudos to the team. Regards Aditya

Dear Aditya, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wonderful review. It was truly a pleasure helping you arrange your family’s 3-day Cairo experience. I’m delighted to hear that everything, from the airport transfers to the guided tours, met your expectations. Nabil and Abdulrahman will be especially happy to know that their professionalism and dedication made such a positive impression. It’s wonderful to hear that Abdulrahman’s explanations kept your children engaged, especially your son. Creating memorable and educational experiences for families is exactly what we strive for. Thank you for your kind recommendation and for trusting Forever Egypt Tours with your visit to Egypt. We hope to welcome you and your family back one day to explore even more of our beautiful country. Warm regards, Waleed Forever Egypt Tours

“Great Experience”
This was our second day we got to spend with Hamdy, after we visited the pyramids of Giza and the new Grand Egyptian Museum on day one. Hamdy was great showing us around and able to answer all our questions we had. He managed the tour really well, helping us with tickets and driving really safe. We never felt uncomfortable. In addition to that, his German was excellent, what was quite helpful understanding everything 100%, especially when he gave us historical information, requiring words, you do not use on daily basis. Thank you so much for showing us around in Cairo Hamdy!
