Yahya was our local driver for a day of sightseeing in Luxor, and made everything so safe, convenient, and hassle free. He waited patiently while we touristed around the different tombs and temples, always ready to go as soon as we were. He had great recommendations for unplanned stops at cafes and restaurants too! For any driver/guide needs, he's your man and would be who I would recommend!

I used it for my personal trip to Luxor at the end of 2024. It was very helpful because I could speak English and communicate. After the tour of each temple, they sent us a GPS location so we could join them smoothly. It's the end of the year, so it's easier to arrange things online in advance than to spend time negotiating for a taxi there, as there are longer lines to buy temple tickets than you might think.
