I’m Abdu, a civil engineer who took an unexpected path to become a tour guide in Egypt. After graduating in 2018, I felt drawn to the rich history and vibrant culture of my country. My passion for Egypt and my love for meeting people from around the world inspired me to pursue this journey. I studied for two years to earn a diploma and become a licensed tour guide, combining my knowledge of Egypt with my desire to share its wonders. Along the way, I discovered my love for photography, which allows me to capture Egypt’s beauty and tell its amazing stories to travelers. On every tour, I aim to create meaningful connections and unforgettable experiences, turning guests into lifelong friends. You can find me on Instagram @abdelrahman_hassn And WhatsApp +201555771779
