ギザのピラミッド、スフィンクス、エジプト考古学博物館。

Sam was our tour guide visiting the pyramids, the Sphinx, Saqqara, the GEM and at the end old Cairo. He is the best, very knowledgeable, a wonderful story teller that keeps one wanting to learn more. He is genuine and his love and passion for ancient Egypt is clearly showing. I would love to book another tour with him in the future

I cannot recommend Sam and his team more. From the moment we arrived in Cairo for a long lay-over, my friend and I were taken across Cairo and Giza. We were brought to local, authentic restaurants for meals and provided with commentary on this history and art of the peoples of Egypt through the extensive history that exists in real-life in this amazing city. Sam, himself, could host a television show - he has great charisma, perfectly fluent in English, and provides interesting anecdotes at each stop. If you have a long layover or are spending time in / around Cairo, you cannot go wrong with this guide.

Our trip was absolutely beautiful. Going to Egypt seeing the pyramids, Sphinx, and all the artifacts in the museum was truly a once in a lifetime experience. Sam was with us every step of the way, and made sure we ate good and authentic. He made the trip wonderful and I'm thankful he was our guide.

An unforgettable tour guided by Egyptologist Sam. There were many highlights but the Pyramids were nothing but amazing! Topped off with Sam’s enthusiasm/knowledge of history that draws you in made the tour even more rewarding. Forever grateful Sam was the leader of Horus

A life-long goal for both of us to visit Egypt, and it absolutely blew us away. An absolutely fascinating place, and Egyptologist Sam was awesome with both his knowledge and enthusiasm in showing us this incredible place. We'll be back for more in the future!

Sam, our tour guide, took good care of us while providing insightful knowledge at every turn. We really enjoyed our team in Egypt, in part thanks to Sam.

While traveling to Egypt for a wedding in late May 2024, my husband and I, along with four non-couple friends from Canada and the U.S. were amazingly fortunate to be connected with Sam (and Peter, our driver!) for an amazing three days of touring around Cairo and the Pyramids of Giza. From the first moment we were welcomed and felt at ease with Sam. He has such a warm, authentic disposition and deep, life-long knowledge that extends beyond the traditional bounds of Egyptology. In a field of study with so many theories and unknowns, Sam is skilled in his ability to describe widely accepted theories and those still being debated by Egyptologists around the world. Even better, he has a knack for explaining the nuances of local history and culture in a way that makes engagement both accessible and enjoyable. Not to mention his professional photography background, which meant he knew all the spots to get the best photos! Our group was comprised of experienced international travelers, though this was the first trip to Egypt for most of us, and we had a packed itinerary covering all the major spots—Cairo Citadel, the Old Town, National Museum of Egyptian Civilization, The Egyptian Museum, The Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and even the partially-opened Grand Egyptian Museum. Our time at each site was an excellent balance of curated tour and self-driven exploration; something that isn't always the case with "guided" tours. We always had time for admin stops—bathroom and lunch breaks—and appreciated benefits like leaving our extraneous items in the van during museum visits. Be sure to bring water everywhere; we each had a bottle (or two) every day. At no point during our experience did we feel unsafe, concerned, rushed, or uncomfortable; in fact, traveling with Sam resulted in the opposite effect. He helped us to anticipate the rules and customs of each new stop (whether photos are allowed, if you should cover your shoulders or remove your shoes, etc.) meaning we felt more confident and prepared, and knew we were with someone we trusted should there be concerns from professional staff or overly-engaged vendors; neither of which were ever an issue. However, it's important to acknowledge that we were collectively conscious of forming a positive relationship with Sam (and others who we met) by building on mutual respect and engagement. Bringing good energy and intention into your experience changes everything for the better. With so many things to see it would have been easy to feel overwhelmed in a new country, but each day was even more enjoyable than the last and by the end, it was difficult to say goodbye. When you strike a balance within a group who travels well together, the unplanned times like getting stuck in Cairo traffic, or a quick pit stop for shawarma and ful while jamming to crowd-favorite Arabic songs become cherished memories. After three days we'd lost track of how many friendly locals and experts paused to tell us how fortunate we were to be exploring with Sam—and we couldn't have agreed more. We're already planning all the things still left to see in Egypt, and we'll certainly be reaching out (with plenty of lead time) in hopes of working with Sam again when we return. We can't recommend him enough!

My Shepherd Sam’s guiding skills and leadership made our Egyptian bucket list a resounding success. He made us feel as if we were the only tourists in Egypt. His knowledge and passion is second to none. Highly recommend.

Trip of a lifetime, so glad we came. Egyptologist Sam was our guide, such a fountain of knowledge. Made our tour so interesting and he was very accommodating and friendly. Such a wonderful country 🙂

Our recent trip to Egypt was awe inspiring and a life changing event. It was invaluable that our tour of Egypt was led by the incomparable Egyptologist Osama “Sam” Nasef. Sam is extremely knowledgable and passionate about Egypt’s long history. In his presentations , Sam demonstrates his passion, depth of knowledge, and his love for his country. We were very fortunate to have had Sam as our tour guide. Anyone contemplating a trip to Egypt should seek out Sam as their guide as you will be in great hands and likely make a lifelong friend as we have. We hope to reconnect with Sam in the future as our limited time in Egypt left us wanting more. Bless you my Bedouin Brother!
