Description

The long-awaited GEM has been the dream of Egyptians, tourists, and history lovers. It is the largest in the world dedicated for one civilization! It is a mind-blowing museum. The gap between the distant past and the present time will be bridged thanks to the in-depth studies and knowledge of the ancient Egyptian civilization. Though it is a free tour, not a private one, but willingly and happily I can manage to give opportunity for interacting, asking questions for clarification or for knowledge sake, as long as they are within the subjects to cover in this tour. It is much more than one monumental site visiting. It is the visit after which you may become knowledge seeker and get addicted to the ancient Egyptians' civilization and wisdom !!

Guide: Aly

Guiding since 2023

Hello there! My name is Aly. I am an Egyptian citizen. I have had my college degree in Egyptology and tour guidance. I became an officially authorized Egyptologist and English speaking tour guide. I have been in the field for more than two decades. It is, to me, more than bread-winning job. I have never imagined myself doing any other occupation. I do love meeting people, introducing them to the greatness of the ancient Egyptian civilization, alongside showing them the nowadays Egypt, mutually exchanging and sharing knowledge, and having a good time together!
