This private half-day...
This private half-day East Bank tour with guide Emad was a great way to see Luxor and Karnak Temples without feeling rushed. The hotel pickup and drop-off were smooth, and having an Egyptologist guide made a big difference—clear explanations, helpful context, and just the right amount of detail. Luxor Temple was impressive, especially with the historical background explained on site. The scale of Karnak is incredible, and Emad helped make sense of it all. Overall, a well-organized, efficient tour that’s perfect if you want a solid overview of Luxor’s East Bank in a short amount of time.

Late afternoon tour of Karnak and Luxor temples
Our guide Sayed was punctual, passionate, and kept us to a tight schedule. We spent 1.5 hours at Karnak temple, coming at 3:30pm which was perfect for golden hour, but we would recommend going a bit earlier to have more time in the temple. 2 hours would be a minimum, in our opinion. Having to start our tour later meant having to rush a bit more than we would have liked. We got to Luxor temple at 5:30pm, in time for nightfall, which was a cool new way to experience a temple, although if you really want to see the engravings in better detail, you should go in the daytime.

It can be better a experience
we're picked up 1 hour later than the normal pick-up time. That's resulted in loosing the sunlight in the temple ( which was Luxor Temple). The guide was so polite. she was not into the details of the temple. Rather she gave brief info and leave us in the temples. Overall, it was not bad, slightly over the average service.

Company confirmed booking...
Company confirmed booking right away and responded quickly anytime I messaged them via WhatsApp. Pickup right on time. Guide was very knowledgable and provided a lot of detail but had a somewhat mechanical delivery and wanted to go through her presentation at her quick pace even when we asked her to slow down to take some
Pictures. Both temples are excellent. Would suggest starting in late afternoon. to see Karnak temple first in the daylight and then go to Luxor around dusk to see it in daylight and then at night since it is open till 8. Must see Luxor at nifht. Allow about 2 hours for each.

Step into the Old Testament times
It's an experience like no other. We had the most informative afternoon with a guide who is well spoken and exceptionally friendly and accommodating.

Luxor Egypt Tours are the best
Luxor Egypt tours gave us an unforgettable experience of the East Bank in Luxor. Emad, the guide, is humorous and knowledgeable with a perfect command of the English language.

Passionate About Egyptology
Said is fluent in German and English. He's very passionate about his job and nerds-out on Egyptology, which we very much appreciate for kids, as they learned a lot. His attention to detail was deep and precise. Very much recommend Said. We would work with him again, without a doubt.

Great tour and guide
Our guide, Sayed Gamal, gave us an excellent tour of these two historic sites and even managed to sneak us away to some small hidden spots in the middle of a very crowded evening! We learned a lot about the significance of the two sites and gained so much from having him to take us through the different periods of Egyptian history

Karnak and east!
Special thanks to Ereen who answered all my questions and is very knowledgable!
We started off at Karnak Temples, which was fantastic and Ereen was there every step of the way to explain everything. She let me wonder around by myself for as long as I wanted.
Then to Luxor Temple, came in a close second, but as per usual Ereen was fantastic, showing me around, explaining a lot.
Shout out to the driver also, lovely car and nice and smooth.
