Egypt

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!

I fully enjoyed the nature, culture and lives in each city where I lived. I retired after 36 years with a national research institute of fisheries in 2016. During my career, I visited 5 continents except Antarctica, more than 20 nations for attending international scientific conferences, conducting collaborative research or teaching some technologies, etc. In Japan, I often took foreign scientists and government officers sightseeing. I had great times in these opportunities. Such experiences made me decide to become a licensed English-speaking guide interpreter after retirement to introduce Japanese nature, culture, foods, etc. properly to many tourists coming to Japan from all over the world. For more than 20 years I’ve been living in Nikko, which is located about 150km north of Tokyo, and designated as a World Heritage site and a National Park. If you consider a day trip from Tokyo, I strongly recommend coming to Nikko by 2-hour train ride from Tokyo. I am looking forward to showing you around in this historical and beautiful town.
