I am an English speaking tour guide. I was born and raised in Luxor, Egypt and I am passionate about sharing my home town with visitors. I work primarily in Luxor and Upper Egypt, but I also travel throughout Egypt. I believe that the best sites in Egypt are right here in Luxor, and love to share the history and culture of my country. I have worked for many international tour companies. I am a licensed tour guide and I enjoy working as a tour guide. I enjoy meeting new people but also it is excited for me to connect with Egyptian archeology and connect with civilization , show the real life in Egypt, and share others with my experience. I believe the tour guide isn't a recorder but an excellent tour Guide is like an actor - he sends a message through a way of creation. I can arrange tailor-made trips for groups or individuals based on your own interests and budget. I travel with my guests whenever possible. If another guide is necessary, I refer only to guides with similar credentials, and excellent standards. About Egypt: Egypt has one of the richest cultural heritage in the world. The south of Egypt, Upper Egypt, is full of extraordinary archaeological sites: the Valleys of the Kings and Queens in Luxor, the world famous tomb of Tutankhamen and the magnificent Temple of Hatshepsut; fascinating temples of Karnak and Luxor Temple built by Ramses II the Great! Lower Egypt, with Aswan, also has many historical and cultural monuments: Kom Ombo temple , Edfu temples, Philae temple Aswan! So what are you waiting for? By my side you will enjoy and have an unforgettable tour! *Faculty of Tourism and Hotel Management,Guidance Dpt. *Licensed Tour Guide. *The Educational Institute Of The American Hotel and Lodging Association . *Licensed by the Ministry of Tourism. *Member of the Egyptian General Tourist Guides syndicate (EGTGS). *Member of the Arab Tourist Guides Federation (ATGF). *Member of the World Federation of Tourist Guides Association (WFTGA). -Because of Egyptian law,It's not allowed for any guide to enter inside the Tombs with his customer. -There's some tours i arrange it for you but I can't accompany you as it's not a guided tour "Hot air balloon, Quad bike, Hotel booking..."

Overview of your Luxor tour

Discover the oldest and most ancient Egyptian site in all of Egypt and greatest open air museum in all the world. Since I was child I lived close to Luxor temple and used to come to see our great monuments and to discover by myself how they managed to built or carve more than a thousand reliefs on it and why! The river Nile divided Luxor (Thebes) to east and west bank where they used to see their sungod rise from Karnak temple to die at the west bank where they dig tombs and built funerary temples to follow their god's journey in to the afterlife. Today I realized the magnificence and the beauty of my city and I would like to show you my city with the eyes of a child. . .

This was our first experience in Egypt and we couldn’t have been more pleased having George as our guide! George has a deep knowledge and passion for the amazing sites surrounding Luxor. We left with a clear understanding of ancient Egyptian art, history, and culture. The full day allowed us to see numerous sites and it flew by, leaving us wanting more. I will return to Egypt someday and won’t hesitate to reach out to George.

George was FANTASTIC! We can't say enough about our experience. He was a tremendous help before we even arrived, communication was excellent and the tour experience was more than we had hoped! We were a group of 14, ranging in ages with a lot of historical education and experience. George was the perfect guide for a truly remarkable experience in Luxor!

George H. was our guide for two days in Luxor in February 2025. We visited both East and West Banks and saw some amazing historical sites. George was a wonderful guide. He was on time, provided a luxury van and safe driver, was very knowledgeable in all the historical sites we visited and provided guidance on the local customs and navigating merchants along the way. We would highly recommend George as your next tour guide!

George provided an excellent two day customized tour of Luxor’s West Bank, designed to accommodate all of the stops requested on our list. His vast knowledge of history and culture brought to life the tombs and temples of pharaohs, nobles, and everyday workers in ancient Egypt. His easygoing personality made it a pleasure to spend the whole day together, and the suggestions for high quality shopping and other activities during our remaining time in the area were very helpful. We’d highly recommend selecting George for your introduction to the wonders of Luxor.

We did two half day tours with George Habib. He was timely, knowledgeable and took all of the hassle out of touring Luxor. Everything from pick up to drop off George had it under control, he taught us a lot, showed us things that many others were not seeing because they had to hustle to keep up with their tours and in the process became my friend. I can't say enough good things about George this experience was perfect. Thanks George for helping me customize my trip and adding you expert advice to make sure everything we did was awesome and maximized our time it was fun hanging around with you and you took our Luxor travel to the next level.

Our family of four adults wanted to see the historical sites around Luxor. Having experienced tours where you battle in a large group, with a guide skimming facts and getting waylaid by the same people all the time, we determined to do better. George came up in our searches. An experienced guide of over 20 years. It was good to hear from him how his knowledge is constantly updated through courses and his own research. George was happy to bespoke things. He gave us suggestions and options and we opted for a day and a half, during which we covered all of the main sites, some not covered by the generic group offerings. We travelled in a small minibus and at each location George assisted with tickets and gave us a detailed tour. His knowledge, enthusiasm and flexibility were exceptional. The days were well managed. We were highly satisfied and do not hesitate to recommend him.
