Guide profile:
I have been working in and around Luxor for 11 years since graduating from Cairo University as an Egyptologist. I have worked for many international tour companies.
I am member in the Egyptian General Tourist Guides Syndicate and the WFTGA.
I was born and raised in Luxor, Egypt , that’s why I know all the places and wonders of my beautiful city, the best sites in Egypt are right here in Luxor.
I love to share my knowledge of ancient Egypt with visitors to Luxor and make it interesting and understandable.
I particularly enjoy touring with families and can always find something interesting for the children.

My daughter and I had several antiquities tours in Luxor and Ahmed was an excellent guide. He speaks perfect English, was always prompt, courteous, humorous, friendly and flexible with our itinerary. We felt very comfortable with him but more importantly safe too. Ahmed really opened the world of Egypt’s New Kingdom for us by sharing his fantastic knowledge and pride of his country - a true professional. I give Ahmed my highest recommendation and will definitely use him again on our next trip.

Ahmed was a great guide. He spoke perfect English, gave just enough history to keep all the family interested and provided us with some great memories of the wonders of Egypt on our trip. Absolutely no hassle about buying souvenirs and an easy informative way to explore.

I am delighted to offer my highest reference for Ahmed Abd el Hamid. He was one of the finest tour guides I have ever encountered. He was well educated about the historical significance of all of the Luxor sites and was also very much in touch with the personal needs of our group. Ahmed’s English is excellent and is he is not only a superb guide, but also an excellent teacher. Ahmed would be my first choice if I return to Egypt for future tours.
