Simply fantastic!!!

This is a great day tour!! A big thanks to our Egyptologist Hany Yassen and driver Mahmoud. Hany knew everything about Egypt and the places we visited. Lots of knowledge and stories! We felt he went the extra mile to make the trip the best! He was kind and thoughtful and looked after us. As did the excellent and safe driver Mahmoud. Very comfortable car. There is a lot packed into this trip, it is an absolute bargain! Every place was good in a different way, which made it a great itinerary. We left early which was great to avoid the rush, which we did. There was plenty of time at each place to roam and enjoy. The lunch too was fantastic food. We are vegan and this was no problem. I would highly recommend this trip and if you get Hany and Mahmoud you will be sure to have a great time!!

Enjoyable Luxor experience with Emad Roshdy!

We enjoyed half day!!! Emad Roshdy took us to the all the best places in Luxor and he explained background so well. The best point is that he was so supportive, that he helped us in every situation, made sure we were safe! We added tour go to banana island and eat bananas and perfect delicious Egyptian lunch by 27 USD per person. He took our best photo and we also took a lot of photo with him! He was so nice the whole trip, we 100% choose him again for our next visit to Luxor! 半日間充実したツアーでした!めっちゃいい人で、程よく自由時間をくれ、自分たちのペースでまわることができ、すごく満足しました!女2人で行きましたが、安全に楽しめました!がめつくなくてストレスフリーでした!まじでおすすめです‼️

A must-have West bank tour

This tour was amazing! We got to see everything the West Bank has to offer. The driver Tamer drove safe and was very kind. And Bahaa was the perfect guide, he told us everything there is about these places, was very informative, easy to listen to and was able to provide everything we wanted. We could arrange the tour as we wished and that way also escaped most of the crowds. Also, I recommend booking the tour with tickets and lunch. Trust me, you would spare yourself hours of waiting in lines during the main season. The restaurant for the lunch is also amazing with perfect view.

I was a great trip starting from the Konark temple to the tombs in the valley of king. Our guide Hany was really informative and always kept my son who is6 years old occupied too with some fun facts. Our driver Salan was very accommodating and warm right from airport pick .

The Best of Luxor West Bank Temples and Tombs

We were picked up from our hotel by Sayed our Guide and Ahmed our driver in a minivan and went to the Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut, the Deir el-Medina and after a delicious Egyptian lunch we did the Temple of Medinet Habu. Sayed knew the absolutely best tombs to take us to visit including Tutankhamen’s tomb and we skipped the crowds as Sayed timed it well to get us to the highlight tombs before the crowds built up. Ahmed our driver was a very good driver and picked us up and dropped us at each location without getting caught in any traffic jams and gave us bottles of cold water. Sayed and Amhed also took us to a place where there was Egyptian cotton weaving and handmade Alabaster shop. We had lunch on a rooftop with a beautiful view over crops irrigated by the Nile. What more could we want? We highly recommend both Sayed and Amhed and the tour.
