Hi there! Nice to meet you

Nesreen

Hey there, I'm Nesreen, but most folks call me Nana. I've been immersed in the world of Egyptology and history for over 20 years now, guiding travelers through the wonders of ancient Egypt with passion and expertise.

From the iconic pyramids of Giza to the tranquil shores of the Nile, I've had the privilege of sharing the stories of pharaohs, gods, and legendary monuments with visitors from around the globe. Every tour I lead is infused with a deep love and respect for Egypt's cultural heritage, creating an experience that's both educational and enchanting.

I take great pride in delivering top-notch service to my guests. Whether we're exploring the temples of Luxor or unraveling the mysteries of Karnak, I strive to ensure that every aspect of the journey is meticulously planned and executed, leaving no detail overlooked.

But it's not just about the history for me—it's also about connecting with people. I love nothing more than seeing the wonder and excitement in my guests' eyes as they discover the magic of ancient Egypt. My goal is to make each tour not just informative, but also engaging and memorable.

So if you're ready to embark on a journey through the sands of time, I'd be honored to be your guide. With me by your side, you'll experience the wonders of Egypt in a way that's truly unforgettable.

Thanks you sooooo much Nesreen (Nana) for giving us the most perfect day one in Egypt! From the communication prior to our arrival, your friendly welcome when we met, your wonderful knowledge of Egyptian history and local life, we loved drinking it all in with you as our guide! Nana went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect, we are so grateful for all the extra bits she arranged that made it just right for us, the transportation, the wee camel ride (photos we will treasure) and finding us endless toilet stops 😂 Anyone going to Cairo needs Nana... We were just fizzing after our tour! Best ever introduction to Egypt

Nesreen was amazing. Away from all the tourists, she took us to a beautiful part of the city where we got to try different kinds of Egyptian food. Nesreen was very open and kind and really made our vacation extry special. Would very much recommend!Amazing Experience

If you are looking for a knowledgable, friendly, fascinating and lovely guide in Cairo - look no further. Nana truly is a guide of all guides. We went with her to the pyramids (she picked us up and organised a taxi for the rest of the group) and she took us to quieter spots and great photo opportunity moments.. The next day we booked her for the Egyptian Museum as she knew exactly how to pace it.. She was super interesting, patient, caring and kept our 4 kids (from teenagers to older) fascinated! I would say pls pls book her as you won’t be disappointed ! (If you can get her !) The amazing Nesreen (Nana)

We recently returned from a wonderful bespoke holiday in Egypt with many highlights, from living like a king for two days at the Al Moudira Hotel in Luxor, to 5 days cruising the Nile in total privacy on the Dahabeya Aqua, to 2 blissful nights in the Old Cataract Hotel in Aswan. We topped it off with three nights at the brand new Giza Palace Hotel and Spa. All fantastic. But what made the end of our trip really special was the two days we spent with Nesreen exploring the pyramids, temples and tombs of Saqqara and Giza, and old Cairo, street food included. Nesreen makes Cairo come alive, transferring a regular tourist trip into a deep dive into Egypt's and Cairo's rich and fascinating history. Her warm and fun personality certainly adds to the experience, as does her deep knowledge of both Egyptian ancient and modern society. We wish we would have had more days to explore Both Cairo and the region with Nesreen as our guide, and when (not if) we visit Cairo again, Nesreen will be the first person to call! Thank you, Nana!!! Warm regards from Marcus, Mariangels and Dylan (listening to Amr Diab's new album right now!).Two blissful days with Nesreen!!

Nesreen is an amazing guide, person, expert and ambassador for Egypt. She was prompt (exactly on time for pickup), super friendly, flexible and knowledgeable. While tour was for pyramids and food, she added other locations (City of the dead, Heliopolis etc) as it became possible traffic and time wise. I have already recommended her to my friends and am planning a family visit to Egypt with Nesreen as our guide! Thank you Nesreen!!!Amazing guide, tailored tour

Wie reisen sehr viel und haben viel Erfahrung mit Tourguides. Nesreen war eine der besten. Sie spricht hervorragendes Englisch, sie hat ein außerordentliches und umfangreiches Wissen, nicht nur im Bereich der Ägyptologie, sie hat unsere Tour individuell und flexibel gestaltet. Schon im Vorhinein hatte sie sich nach unseren Wünschen und Bedürfnissen erkundigt. Sie war einfach zu kontaktieren und sie hat sehr schnell geantwortet. Für uns war die Tour mit Nesreen eine "once in a lifetime experience", weil wir dank Nesreen in der kurzen Zeit sehr viel über die Pyramiden, aber auch über das Leben im modernen Ägypten lernen durften. once in a lifetime

We hebben twee dagen in Caïro het plezier gehad om Nesreen als onze gids te hebben. Wat een geweldige ervaring! Nesreen kan zo veel vertellen over de stad en de historie en daarnaast brengt ze je naar plekken waar je anders nooit zou zijn gekomen. Absolute aanrader!Nesreen is fantastisch!

My husband and I could not have wished for a better guide than Nana! Already from the very first message I received from her I knew she would be the perfect match. And we were not disappointed! She has the perfect mix of knowledge, humor and sarcasm (something us Dutch love;)) It was like walking around with a walking and talking encyclopedia (yes I am from that period) but the interesting and funny kind. Whatever she said you just had to listen and she explains it in a way that it sticks with you. I can honestly say she is the best guide we ever had. If you look for a guide, don’t look further, Nana is your gal!Match made by the pharaohs!
