I'm a licensed and certified tour guide, graduated from Cairo university in 1996. After 4 years of studying Egyptology, I learned how to read and write hieroglyphs and how to read all the reliefs that inscribe the temples and the tombs walls that give insights on the life of Ancient Egyptian.i’m an expert professional at symbolism which is my specialty and I love to share it with my guests to make sure they have a once in a lifetime experience . I also studied archeology and took part in some digs in Saqqara archeological site nearby Saqqara's Step pyramid and together with other archeologists we found tombs of nobles and ordinary people and we found inside their tombs their personal belongings. I also studied the history and the life of ancient Egypt and when you put these studies together plus work experience of over 20 years, it all makes one a professional, experienced tour guide. My very first tour was in August 1998 , it was a large group of British guests escorted by me to visit the west bank of Luxor city where I was born and grown. I always do my best to deliver unforgettable memories and wonderful experiences that my guests long remember and cherish forever. I'm an accredited tour guide fluent in English graduated from Cairo university in 1996 and after passing an exam I got my license no 4249 Drones and binoculars are not allowed in Egypt. taking pictures of military and police areas not allowed.
