Wonderful Tour of Luxor

We had the best experience on this tour with Noby! Despite us visiting during the busy season, Noby managed to get us to all of the sites when they were the least crowded. You can tell that he genuinely loves his job, and we learned so much from his expertise! We will be recommending this tour to all of our friends and family should they visit Luxor!

It was a very polite, safe and wonderful guide. They also explained about the sightseeing along the way, and even if you don't understand English, they use a translation app, so you can rest assured.

Great transfer Aswan to Luxor and half day tour!

We used the services of Luxor Egypt Tours to go from Aswan to Luxor with stop on the sway to visit Edfu Temple. The driver Salah was amazing, very polite and knowledgeable of history everywhere we went, and caring to ensure our kids had snacks and drinks along the way, stopping at local supermarkets with no need to be prompted. Thank you Salah for your help today!

The best half-day experience in Luxor

I asked for a half-day tour at the end of December. The driver Peter was very friendly and had a good time going around the west side of Luxor. It is a private tour, so it was very good to be able to go around without worrying about the time spent visiting and taking photos. Also, the restaurant I recommended to take me to for lunch was very good, and it worked well for Japanese tongues! It was a very satisfying half day because they asked me a lot about my wishes.

Great tour

Overall great experience. All 6 sites were great. Our driver, Ramses, was wonderful; very punctual, provided helpful tips and guidance for each stop, and very friendly as well. I recommend splurging for Seti I at valley of the kings, was nice to get a temple to yourself whereas most tombs were quite packed with tour groups. Habu was another highlight to not miss.
