Our history

The beginning

In the year 1940, Hassani Ahmed Hassani, the newest of the eldest, started his activity, where he worked in translating and explaining temples to visitors to Luxor.

There was no such thing as a tour guide at his time

Why the friend was called this name?

In the period from 1962 to 1990 when the great-grandfather was doing an explanation

Temples found that the tourist finds it difficult to pronounce his name, so the tourists call him Friend, which in the English language means friend due to the ease of the name, and then he continued the journey after his son Ahmed Hassani in attracting major companies to Luxor until he reached the only agent for companies inside and outside Egypt as well as the first from the start of booking tickets for Aida Opera, to make it easier for tourists to watch

The dream began in 2006 in establishing a company and a tourist transport fleet through the grandchildren to serve the visitors instead of the tourist coming through the agents, so he was booked directly through the company and had a program and means of transportation to serve him and he did not need others, and since it was from the time of the great grandfather to the time of the grandchildren they called them the name of the Friend so The grandchildren decided to name the company a friend, and from that time on, the grandchildren started building an airline reservation and tourist transport company
