I'm from Japan. Thank you for the wonderful tour. We only asked for a driver, but he only took us where we wanted to go, and he was flexible in arranging the tour. You were right to ask for this tour!

I had a wonderful time w our tour guide, Abdo, he is punctual and attentive. He is well spoken and has vast knowledge of Egyptian culture. He warn us the do’s and don’t during the tour and inform us about solicitors that are nice to lure you in. He take us to where we can use nice bathroom facilities. The restaurant he took us to has a nice view of the village farm that offer a set Egyptian dishes. I enjoyed the fresh refreshing juices. If I come back to Egypt, I would request him for my Nile Cruise. I enjoyed his company that much that I would nit hesitate to recommend him to my friends.

The ride was perfect. The driver was on time outside the hotel. He drove well and carefully, unlike some drivers who drive very fast. I felt safe. I had enough time to visit the entire West Bank of Luxor. I am very satisfied with this trick. I highly recommend!

Amazing tour with a great guide! Mohammed Awad was very knowledgeable about the history of archeological sites we visited, cultural importance, and the symbolism of paintings and carvings inside tombs and temples. He even taught us how to read some of the hieroglyphs! Mohammed went beyond what was expected by taking pictures of us and offering to stop for lunch or shopping. Driver Ahmed was also very nice and the car was modern and spacious and had air conditioning. Great trip, which we would highly recommend.

Yaya was an incredible guide. First he took us to our hotel from the airport. Then picked us up the next day for tours of the valley of the kings, hatschepsut and for a Sugar cane drink. Honestly it was a perfect day and it was nice to be driven about in comfort but also given the Freedom to explore the areas of interest by ourselves.
