West Bank of Luxor Tour (Mr Ramses)

I joined Mr Ramses's driver tour. I've been on many driver tours overseas, and my guide Ramses was the kindest and best. I learned a lot from the fact that they explained the tourist spots carefully while I was traveling. Although I speak poor English, Ramses spoke slowly and clearly, so I could enjoy it with peace of mind. Recommended without flattery!

Tours with amazing drivers

Mr Ramses showed me around. Not only did they take me to tourist spots as a driver, but they also gave me more information and advice on what to look out for at each tourist spot, which was very useful for sightseeing. It was also impressive that they conveyed the message in English in a manner that was easy for those of us who are not very good at English to understand. I think he is one of the top hospitality people I have ever been on. I would definitely recommend it.

Luxor Egypt Tours on Luxor West Trip

I was taken to a lot of places on the Western tour. The car is new, the air conditioning is good and clean. The driver, Ahmed, was very sincere in showing us around. There was an unexpected event in the schedule, but the company manager called to explain it. The prices are also great.

Mina was always available, she told us many anecdotes of Egyptian history and the translation of the hieroglyphs we saw in the places. Very good and prepared.
