Safy A.
It was never about history alone! Every single tour of mine focuses on healing, sensing and even smelling the real Egypt in a profound way that can never be forgotten. Live the local atmosphere rather than staying within the limits of touristic bubble. Environment-friendly, ethic-based tours that focus on culture, nature alongside history. Go back in time millions of years and feel the ambiguity of the whale valley, once was an ancient ocean. See the first pyramid ever built in the history, wander like an ancient citizen in the ambiguous tunnels of the Serapium. Feel the thriller of every molecule of sand and air of Ancient Egypt. A considerable part of my tours goes to stray animals of Egypt. I'm a specialized guide. I've studied Egyptology (not only history but also archaeology, religion, art, literature, hieroglyphic translation, mythology of ancient Egypt), for so many years and still studying new theories, references, updates in a non-stop journey of acquiring knowledge. All my tours are customizable. You can customize any tour to suit your own needs (adding or removing places, including or excluding tickets if you prefer to pay on your own, choosing pickup time...etc). Looking forward to meeting you and spend great time together :)

Egypt Tour Reviews
Nozipho S.
“My Amazing Trip to Egypt ”
I have always wanted to learn about the Great Egypt and all its Ancient history. When I finally decided it was time to go, I consulted my best supporter, Miss AI, on who could be my best guide in on this journey in Egypt. Ai suggested a list of three names and on top of the list was Wael from Gowithguide. I consulted Wael and we soon hit it off, he got me even more excited because I then realized that my list was truly not exhaustive at all on great places to see. If it wasn't for him, I probably may have even missed the Great Egypt Museum. Nonetheless, on arrival at Cairo Airport, I was great with such warmth and humility that I immediately felt at home. Wael is indeed the best guide you can get in Egypt, Ai didn't lie. He had advanced knowledge on the Ancient history that I got school and went back home with even more homework. He is kind, he is patient and he loves what he does. He's got such passion for what he does that the future is truly bright for him, and those that get a chance to meet with him should consider themselves blessed. On this one, the Ancient Gods are with him. I had initially planned only 3 days of guide in my 10 day visit, but because of how much I was enjoying his guidance, I ended up on the road with him for 8 days, and the other 2 were off just because I needed rest, nothing else. He organized a trip for me to fly to Luxor outside of the original 3 days that were planned, which as luck will have it, upon arriving at the airport I realised that I had forgotten my wallet at home. Mind you he was not with me because he arranged for his colleague guide in Luxor to take me through. When I informed him via WhatsApp he told me relax, these things happen. He then arranged for funds from his own pocket to be transferred to his colleague on the other side so that I could still visit every place I wanted to visit including buying any souvenirs I may have liked. I paid him back as soon as I returned back to the hotel. Now that's an angelic Wael.

Dear Nozipho Thank you so much for your kind and heartfelt words they truly mean a lot to me From the first moment, I could feel your passion for Egypt, and it was a real pleasure sharing this journey with you. I’m so happy we made your trip even more special, and honestly, you’re not just a guest you became a friend. Thank you again for your trust and beautiful energy Egypt will always be waiting for you… and so will I Warm wishes, Wael

“Perfect tour to the Valley of the Kings”
If you’re visiting Luxor and want your trip to the Valley of the Kings to be truly unforgettable, Ali is the guide you need! From the moment we met him, his friendly personality made us feel completely at ease. His knowledge is impressive, but what makes him special is how much he genuinely cares about his guests. He patiently answered all our questions, made sure we were comfortable. We never felt like we were on a strict schedule — Ali gave us time to explore, take photos, and soak in the magic of the place.

Ali S.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It truly means a lot to me that you enjoyed your time at the Valley of the Kings. I’m really happy to hear that you felt comfortable and were able to explore the site at your own pace—that’s exactly the experience I always aim to provide. Sharing the history and magic of this incredible place with you was a real pleasure, and I’m glad I could help make your visit memorable. Your appreciation and feedback are genuinely valued. I hope to welcome you again in Luxor for another great experience in the future!

“Beyond Expectations !!”
I had the most amazing and informative tour with Safy It's worth it to see Saqqara and Dahshour. They are totally different and much more beautiful and peaceful than Giza Like many people, I grew up fascinated by Ancient Egypt and experiencing it alongside Safy made that fascination feel real in a way I never expected. Her passion is contagious and she has a unique ability to make every site feel meaningful and memorable. Unlike previous tours I had with other guides, Safy provided a 100% different experience with a focus on pre-dynastic Egyptian history with an "off the beaten feel" than at Giza. She’s very knowledgeable ! Her driver Mohamed was also very friendly, reliable, and prompt. I noted that other tourists missed out on seeing some beautiful hidden areas we got to see thanks to Safy's detailed knowledge of the hidden sites. That added to the 'specialness' and the feeling of adventure. Going to the Serrapeum and knowing the meanings behind hieroglyphics inscribed there thanks to Safy, was one of the most amazing things I’ve been blessed to witness. Her knowledge of Ancient Egypt is truly impressive—she doesn’t just point things out, she brings history to life. She can read hieroglyphics and explain the full stories behind them, which adds a completely different depth to the experience. It’s clear she has studied extensively and genuinely knows her craft. What truly sets Safy apart, though, is her compassion—especially for animals. Throughout our tours, she always made time to care for stray animals, bringing food, showing kindness, and even supporting humane efforts to manage stray populations. It’s rare to see someone so dedicated not only to her work, but also to making a positive impact in the places she operates. She is knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely cares—about both her guests and the world around her. I hope more people get the chance to experience Egypt through her eyes. DO NOT hesitate to avail yourselves of her knowledge and talents.

Thank you so much, you really made my day :) I'm really speechless..it's just your pure heart reflects on everything outside like a mirror ! In shaa Allah we will meet again. Take care and have a good night and a safe flight :)
