About Tour Guide Ali S.
I am an English-speaking, licensed Egyptologist tour guide, born and raised in Luxor, with a true passion for sharing the treasures of my hometown and country with visitors from around the world. With years of experience working for leading international tour companies, I specialize in guiding travelers through Luxor and Upper Egypt, while also offering tours in Luxor, Aswan, Edfu, KomOmbo, Hurghada, Dendera, and Abydos, as well as other remarkable sites across Egypt.
I believe that the finest monuments and stories of Egypt are found here in Upper Egypt, and it is my joy to bring this history and culture to life. For me, a tour guide is not simply a narrator but a storyteller — like an actor delivering a powerful message — who inspires guests through creativity, knowledge, and enthusiasm.
I offer tailor-made trips for individuals, families, and groups, carefully designed to match your interests and budget. Whenever possible, I personally accompany my guests to ensure a memorable experience. If another guide is required, I recommend only trusted colleagues who share the same high standards of professionalism and expertise.
Guiding is not only my profession but also my passion: meeting new people, uncovering the wonders of Egyptian archaeology, showcasing authentic daily life, and creating unforgettable journeys through one of the world’s greatest civilizations.
Let me help you experience the real Egypt—safely, comfortably, and memorably. I look forward to being your guide!

“Great guide, knowledgeable & great English ”
Ali was all we wanted in a guide. Punctual, reliable, and very knowledgeable regarding Egyptian ancient history. We like history and after a few disappointments during our Egypt trip we were happy to find someone who could indeed share interesting facts about the sights. His English was pretty good, and communication was easy. We also liked the fact he gave us a bit of “alone wondering time” in each place. Driver was also polite, nice and drove safely. It is our first time trying this platform and we are very satisfied. We would book Ali again and can fully recommend him. In short: we really only write reviews when we are happy about the service, so here is definitely the case. Thanks Ali :)

It was a real pleasure guiding you, and I’m glad the historical explanations, smooth communication, and balance between guided time and free exploration met your expectations. I’m also happy to hear you felt comfortable and safe with our driver — that’s very important to us. Knowing that you usually only write reviews when you are genuinely satisfied makes this even more meaningful. Thank you again for the recommendation, and I would be delighted to welcome you back anytime in the future. Warm regards, Ali
