I am a Bedouin, born and grown up in Bahariya-Oasis. I am living here with my family.

I have been touring the desert since I was a young boy. On those trips I learned to love and to respect nature. I want to share my experiences with you.

I have been guiding different tours, from two-day-trips to the white desert up to three- week- expeditions to the gilf kebir. I am a professional driver and mechanic.

In addition I organize exciting visits to Cairo, Luxor or Aswan to explore their places of interest.
