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.

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!

If Indiana Jones and an Egyptian goddess had a lovechild, it would definitely be our amazing tour guide Nana! From the very first moment, we knew we were in the best hands. With a smile that could outshine the desert sun and a brain packed with mind-blowing knowledge, Nana led us through the inspiring world of the Giza Pyramids. And this wasn’t some boring history lecture – nope! Nana brought ancient Egypt to life with passion and humor. She told us stories about pharaohs, decoded hieroglyphs, and dropped (fun) facts that had us saying “No way!” every five minutes. She made us laugh, made us think, and had us completely hooked from start to finish. And let’s talk about the photo magic! Nana turned quick stops into mini photo shoots – complete with hilarious posing tips and genius photo hacks. We left with unforgettable memories! Thank you, Nana, for one of the most fun, educational, and unforgettable experiences of our lives. You didn’t just show us Egypt – you made us feel it. The culture, the history, the soul of it all. We are truly grateful and already miss your energy! Final verdict: 10 out of 10 camels – Highly recommend!A Day with Nana – The Queen of Giza!

Nesreen was informative, friendly, gentle, patient, kind and professional. I booked a pyramid tour with my daughter and Nesreen made it fun, informative and interesting all at the same time. She picked us up with her car and dropped us back to our hotel and suggested other interesting things to do in Cairo which we found very helpful. She made sure nobody hassled us during our tour and everything went smooth. You will be lucky to find such a smart and honest person as your tour guide. She is the BEST

Definitely someone who is skeptical of going with a guide, but Nasreen (Nana) was super excited, knowledgeable, and accommodating for our unique pyramids itinerary. We started in the morning and traveled to Giza, had a lovely breakfast at Khufu’s, and checked out the Sphinx. You should go inside the pyramids, but be warned it’s physically demanding and not visually spectacular inside- the most in tact Egyptian burial art is in the valley of the kings in Luxor. Overall, definitely worth going with Nana for her encyclopedic explanations of ancient Egyptian history, and larger context for the country’s current culture/identity. Highlight of our trip!Hire Nana If You Can!

We got lucky finding Nesreen for our trip to the pyramids in Cairo! She made our day so much better than we expected. After reading horror stories online about pushy guides and tourist traps in Egypt, I was pretty worried. But Nesreen was nothing like that. She kept things fun and interesting for all of us - even managed to keep our teenage boys engaged! She never rushed us or pushed us into any shops, which was a huge relief. Her English is great, and she knows her stuff about Egyptian history. What really stood out was how incredibly trustworthy she is - we felt completely at ease with her the entire time. Her kindness and generosity showed in everything she did, from taking extra time to explain things to my kids to helping us navigate local customs. We also really appreciated how she suggested other cool places we should check out during our trip and even offered to call places to help us make reservations. That extra effort made a big difference. If you're heading to Cairo and want a guide you can actually trust, Nesreen is your person. She made our pyramid visit one of the highlights of our trip to Egypt!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​A Genuinely Kind and Knowledgeable Guide

Nesreen was very communicative so we knew exactly where to meet well in advance and the logistics were all very smooth. She took us to the ‘classic’ exhibits and to some less well-known things, explaining how the history progressed from old to new kingdoms and providing context and insight. Overall we had a great tour and got so much more from the experience than we would have done had we gone on our own or with a large group. Thanks Nesreen! Knowledgeable and friendly
