Hello, I'm Maher, and I’d be delighted to guide you through the wonders of Aswan! As a certified tour guide and passionate researcher of Nubian culture, I bring a deep understanding of my hometown’s heritage. I’ve authored two books on Nubian proverbs in both Arabic and English, along with numerous articles, and I’m currently working on three more exciting projects. In addition to my devotion to Nubian culture, I’m also a short story writer and poet. Traveling, connecting with diverse cultures, and meeting people from all walks of life are my greatest joys. I’m here for you 24/7 to ensure your trip is seamless and unforgettable. Whether it’s helping you navigate Aswan, discovering hidden gems like sailing the Nile, exploring Philae Temple, the Unfinished Obelisk, the Tombs of the Nobles, or the Monastery of St. Simeon, I’m at your service. I also organize guided excursions to Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Abu Simbel, along with Nile cruises and cultural tours tailored to your preferences and interests. My guiding license covers the entire country, including Cairo, Alexandria, Luxor, Aswan, Desert Safaris, and Nile cruises between Luxor and Aswan. I specialize in private tours to lesser-known destinations, ensuring you have a one-of-a-kind experience. I’m happy to assist with booking hotels, cruise boats, or domestic flights, and I can introduce you to local restaurants where you’ll savor authentic Egyptian cuisine—a true highlight of any trip. If you have any questions about Nubia, Aswan, or Egypt, don’t hesitate to ask. I love sharing the beauty and history of my beloved city with visitors and can’t wait to meet you. You’re always welcome in Aswan! A bit about me: Education: Bachelor’s in Social Work (Community Development) and three postgraduate diplomas (NGO Management, Environmental Management, and Tour Guiding). Expertise: Licensed by the Ministry of Tourism, member of the Egyptian General Tourist Guides Syndicate, and currently pursuing a master’s in anthropology. Achievements: Published two books and numerous articles on Nubian culture and language. Participated in workshops and conferences in Egypt, Sudan, UAE, and Germany. Passions: Nubian linguist and scholar, poet, short story writer, and ghostwriter. Let’s make your journey truly unforgettable!
