Nahla is a thoughtful and incredible guide! Her kindness and generosity shine through. As we were walking around the locals would look me say you have the best guide and it's true. Sidenote: If you love animals Nahla is definitely your guide!

Nahla was an incredible guide for our 4 day tour in Cairo and Luxor. She is a nerdy egyptologist who knows practically everything about Egyptian history. We were honestly shocked; I think she knew the answers to more than 95% of our questions (we asked a LOT of questions). She picked amazing sights for us to visit, and had planned comfortable transportation throughout. She was attentive to our needs, and took feedback well. We were not the easiest group to deal with (logistically and personality-wise lol) and she managed it with deft and good humor. Overall, I could not recommend her more highly.

Absolutely outstanding guide! Very knowledgeable, efficient and most importantly - Nahla listens well and patiently answered all our questions. I would highly recommend her services to anyone. For our trip, she worked around our personalized itinerary, encompassing the Cairo area, Alexandria and Luxor. This included being open to changes to our itinerary to fit new ideas. You will not find a more caring and gracious guide.

For the past 10 years we have availed ourselves of the services of Tours By Locals. Due to their superior services we have the highest of expectations for experiencing the place we visit. Nahla not only met our expectations she exceeded them in every aspect of our vacation. Our only disappointment is that our time with her concluded.

Nahla is by far the best guide you can possibly have. I have had guides all over the world and she is clearly at the top. Nahla has been my guide twice now during my trips to Egypt (2018 and 2022). Not only is she an expert Egyptologist and extremely knowledgeable about history and archeology, she is also very flexible during the tour. She is a wonderful and kind person that treats all with respect and dignity. My next trip is to see the Grand Egyptian Museum and Alexandria and Nahla will be my guide.

Nahla is an extremely knowledgeable Egyptologist and an incredible tour guide. We are extremely thankful and fortunate to have booked her for our trip to Egypt. We did a four day tour spent equally between Cairo and Luxor, and not only did Nahla take care of our transit from site to site, she also tailored the sightseeing to fit our interests. Simply put, we would not have enjoyed our trip as much nor would it have been as culturally enriching without her. Thanks so much, Nahla!
