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!
Important
I am available for tours every day of the week.
I also offer multi-day tours covering Luxor, Aswan, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Dendera, and Abydos. Last-minute requests are welcome when possible—simply send me a message and I’ll do my best to accommodate you.

“Overall great experience”
We had many guides in Egypt, but Ali definitely stuck out. His English and knowledge were very good, his lunch recommendation was spot on and he even scheduled our agenda so that we avoided most of the cruise crowds (we even had some alone time with Tutankhamen himself). Ali masters the storytelling art of guiding. He tells you the story of each stop so that it is easy to understand and remember. Above all else, Ali and his driver Ahmed are kind people who will answer any question or request to make your stay comfortable and memorable. We would definitely recommend. Thanks a lot, Ali and Ahmed!

Thank you so much for your wonderful and thoughtful review. It truly means a lot to me to know that you enjoyed your time in Egypt and that the experience stood out among your travels. I’m very glad the planning helped you avoid the crowds and that you could enjoy special moments at the sites, especially such a memorable visit. Sharing the stories and history in a clear and engaging way is something I’m very passionate about, so your kind words really encourage me. On behalf of myself and Ahmed, thank you for your trust, your kindness, and your recommendation. It was a real pleasure guiding you, and you will always be very welcome in Egypt.

“Excellent Trip ”
This company was great! We notified them that we wanted to see only a few special things, take a boat ride and have a nice drink at sofitel winter palace before being dropped to airport. They did exactly that which was so accomodating! The lunch looked basic from the outside but turned out to be the most wholesome and freshest food I have had in Egypt. My son (10 years) could not stop raving about it. The guide was there with us the whole time. Stopped to grab us water and snacks as well! All in all this was 12/10 honestly. 2 extra brownie points for informing us of the haggling and what to buy and where!
