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, 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!

“Highlights of Aswan ”
We highly recommend this tour with Ali. Ali’s knowledge of the sites and their history, both past and present, was outstanding. He was able to answer any questions and he explained everything very clearly in excellent English. The tour was very well organised and fun too. We also carried out the Luxor full day tour with Ali and had an equally enjoyable experience and the two days gave us great insight into Egyptian culture. We highly recommend booking a tour with Ali if you are visiting Aswan!
