Mohamed Abdeltawab

I was born and raised in Cairo, Egypt, a city full of history and culture. From a young age I was fascinated by the ancient monuments and stories of the past.

I have been working as a tour guide since 2012 and during this time I have had the pleasure of meeting travelers from all over the world. I enjoy showing visitors the beauty of Egypt and helping them discover its incredible history, culture, and local traditions.

I like to think of myself as a trusted travel advisor who helps travelers plan unique and unforgettable trips in Egypt and also in Jordan. For me, travel is not just work — it is something I truly enjoy. I am always happy to help travelers plan their journey and answer any questions they may have.

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"I specialize in showing travelers the real Egypt. This includes historical sites, cultural experiences, food tours, and opportunities to eat with a local family and learn about their life and daily experiences."

How did you get involved in travel?

"I have always been interested in travel and history since I was young, especially growing up in Cairo surrounded by so many incredible historical sites. After graduating from university, I started working with tourists and quickly realized that this was exactly what I wanted to do. I truly enjoy meeting people from different countries and sharing the history and culture of Egypt with them. Since then, travel has become both my profession and my passion."

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"One experience I will never forget was guiding travelers through Luxor for the first time. Seeing their reactions when they visited the temples and ancient tombs was truly special. Moments like this always remind me why I love sharing Egypt with visitors from around the world."

We visited Egypt as a family of 4 this summer and had an amazing, highly personalized experience thanks to the incredible support team of Kimkim. From the moment we landed to the moment we arrived, everything was stress-free. We were in constant communication with Mohammed our travel specialist who organized everything for us ahead of time and he provided quick responses throughout. Our private, local tour guides that he arranged for us were excellent, all very hospitable, engaging, and knowledgeable Egyptologists. Highly recommend them, they were: Hend (pyramids), Mahmoud (Luxor/Aswan), Omar (Cairo). They took such good care of us that we felt like they were family! We especially enjoyed visiting the Valley of the Kings and Queens, Karnak temple, Khan el-Khalil market, The Grand Egyptian Museum, Pyramids, and relaxing on the Nile Cruise. We had one minor problem when we checked into our hotel in Hurghada as they asked for our hotel reservation confirm number which they could not locate nor were we ever given one, however it was resolved quickly after contacting Mohamed and Omar at kimkim. The rich history of Egyptian civilization is not something to be missed if you have this unique opportunity to explore in depth. Our family will forever be grateful for these amazing and unsurpassable memories thanks to Kimkim! We would definitely use them again with no hesitation!

This was a full but memorable day. Our Egyptologist guide, Hend, made the history feel rich and accessible. A highlight was the camel ride as well, and we also enjoyed stops at the Papyrus Institute and a jewelry store, where some of us bought cartouches. Lunch at 9 Pyramids was a beautiful break, with great food and stunning views.

Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple at night were unforgettable. Exploring Karnak’s massive columns and ancient history, then seeing Luxor Temple beautifully illuminated after dark, offered two completely different but equally impressive experiences. The horse-drawn carriage ride through Luxor added a fun local touch to a wonderful evening. We also visited a local spice shop in the afternoon that was a very welcoming experience.

It was honestly all magical. Our guides were amazing and so incredibly knowledgeable. Hend (hope I'm spelling that right) in Cairo was so much fun. And we loved Noha in Luxor, she was wonderful and we added a couple extra tours she recommended and so glad we did. And Walla in Aswan was also very nice and very knowledgeable. I will definitely be recommending Kimkim to anyone who is interested in touring Egypt.
