About Tour Guide Omran M.
I’m a certified Egyptologist, author and researcher in Islamic architecture. As a licensed tour guide in Cairo I believe travel is about understanding civilizations, not just visiting places.

“Amazing guide with Omar ”
From the first minute we met laughters flew in. Omar was not only is great tour guide but also an amazing human being. Exceptional service, took great photos, made us feel very comfortable, shielded from local hustlers and bargained with merchants for us. We laughed, spoke philosophy and learned lots of interesting facts about pyramids. Would 100% go with him again!
