Shaaban is a great travel guide. Explained everything wonderfully. Exciting was the temples we visited. We highly recommend this.

Excellent day tour with a fantastic guide!
We had a wonderful one-day tour and would highly recommend it. Our guide Ahmed was energetic, knowledgeable, and made the history of Karnak Temple, the Colossi of Memnon, the Valley of the Kings, and the Temple of Hatshepsut come alive. He covered the key highlights clearly and still gave us plenty of time for photos and independent exploration. The only minor issue was on the return journey, when a scheduled restroom stop seemed to be forgotten, causing some discomfort until a service area break was finally arranged. Hopefully this can be improved. The buffet lunch was decent, and the optional Nile River boat ride (about 20 minutes, €10 per person including a drink) was also worth it. Overall, a great experience — 4.8/5, and I would still recommend this tour without hesitation.

Overall great day
Ahmed was a great guide guy. However we booked without entry tickets and I would recommend to book it with the entry fee included as it makes it easier and there is 3 different entre tickets. There is a boat trip there which isn't mentioned in the description which will cost you €10 per person. Overall great day and so much interesting information from Ahmed. Thank you

Discover Luxor with an excellent guide
I just finished the Luxor tour, including entrance tickets to the temples, at a cost of about 75 € per person, including buffet lunch in a typical Egyptian restaurant, really good. The trip took place in a 16-seat minivan, not fully filled, which made the experience even more comfortable. A special mention goes to Ragab: an excellent guide, helpful and very nice. It is a tour that I absolutely recommend, an experience to do at least once in a lifetime. We also added the boat ride for 10 € per person; unfortunately there was little wind and it was not possible to use the feluca, but the experience was still pleasant.

Day trip from Hurghada
Very rich tour, great and lovely tour guide DOE, time control is good (of course the staff also cooperate), the sights and history explain clearly but there is time to take free photos.
