Our Story

About TUT Travels

TUT Travels was created to help travelers discover the Egypt beyond guidebooks.

Who We Are

Not a travel agency.
Your friend in Egypt.

TUT Travels was born in 2019 from a simple frustration: too many travelers were leaving Egypt having only seen the surface. The pyramids are extraordinary — but so is the silence of the Western Desert at night, the smell of a Cairo souq at dawn, and the warmth of a Nubian family welcoming you into their home.

Our name says everything: Together. Unique. Trails. We believe travel is richer when shared, more meaningful when it surprises you, and best when it takes you somewhere most people never find.

Every TUT trail is a crafted story — weaving history, nature, culture and community into something you carry long after you leave.

Our Journey

How TUT Began

2019

Founded in Aswan

Three childhood friends — Ahmed, Sara, and Kareem — launched TUT Travels from a small office in Aswan. Their first tour: Abu Simbel with 2 guests from Germany.

2020

Survived the Storm

Like every travel business, COVID-19 hit hard. We used the downtime to redesign every tour, train our guides further, and build deeper partnerships with local communities.

2021

Expanded to Luxor & Cairo

As travel resumed, we grew our team and extended TUT trails across Egypt — Valley of the Kings, Karnak, the Pyramids and beyond.

2023

500+ Happy Travelers

We reached our first major milestone — 500 traveler reviews averaging 4.9/5. Every single one booked through trust, not advertising.

2025

Nile Cruise & Custom Packages

We launched our Nile Cruise packages and dahabiya sailing experiences, making TUT a complete Egypt travel partner from Aswan to Cairo.

2026

Today — Still Growing

New tours, new destinations, and the same mission: help every traveler discover the Egypt that lives beyond the guidebook.
