Amazing knowledgable tour guide
We had a great day with our guide, Fawakeh - visiting the Valley of Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut & Memnon. Everything about the day was easy and smooth - starting with the collection from our hotel at a time to suit us, a clean and air conditioned mini-van, no queues for the attractions since tickets were already taken care of, and most importantly amazing knowledge to help us gain the most out of our visit. A quick stop for some falafel was also included so we could replenish our energy before moving onto our next tour. We can’t thank Fawakeh enough for an amazing day.

Trip ins Tal der Könige, dem Hatchepsut Tempel und den Memnon Statuen mit Ahmed Awad: Fazit: wundervoll
Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Ausflug mit Herrn Ahmed Awad! Zuerst waren wir im Tal der Könige, wo uns alles in sehr gutem Deutsch erklärt wurde. Im Anschluss wurden wir dann zu einer nahegelegenen Alabaster Manufaktur gefahren, wo uns das Vorgehen der Beschaffung und Verarbeitung der Steine gezeigt wurde. Danach fuhren wir zum Tempel der Hatchepsut. Auch hier erklärte uns unser Guide alles sehr ausführlich und gut verständlich. Zum Abschluss haben wir uns dann noch die Memnon-Statuen angesehen. Herr Awad war überaus kompetent und sehr sehr freundlich, wir sind froh ihn als unseren Guide dabeigehabt zu haben.

Totally worthy
It was totally worthy. My guide Abdallah Eldandrawy was great. Full explanations of every place, very respectful and good guy. Seeing the thumbs of some Kings and the extended valley was impressive as well as the full story of Queen Hatshepsut. Recommended for sure!

Went to karnak and luxor temples, valley of the kings and hatshepsut temple. Totally amazing experience. Decided to go with a guide, and so glad we did! Abdallah was super nice, knowledgeable and took care of all the little practicalities like tickets etc. Would recommend to anyone, the experience would not have been the same without him

Well worth getting a private guide!
Great experience, our guide Abdallah's explanation brought the place to life, he was knowledgeable and engaging. Really worth going on a private tour as we were more nimble than the big groups and got to see more & queuing less. Overall I recommend doing half day tours of the East and West banks on 2 different days (vs the full day tour) as there is a lot to take in and a lot of walkingin the heat. Guide and driver picked us up at the hotel on time and the agency was reachable on WhatsApp after booking for any questions.

Ask for Abdallah Eldandrawy
Had a great time and Abdallah Eldandrawy was a brilliant guide. His knowledge was remarkable and he was very entertaining. Definitely our best experience in Egypt! He also is knowledgeable on many other aspects of upper Egypt!

Bucket list experience.
We visited three tombs and the Hatshepsut Temple, we didn't manage to visit the statues at Memnon as there was nowhere to park, though I did mange to jump out of the taxi to take a couple of photographs. Ahmed, our knowledgeable guide was particularly good. The tombs themselves were interesting and the hieroglyphics stunning. We arrived early, but it was noticeable that the Valley was particularly crowded as we left. Queuing in the November heat was bearable, though the tombs themselves were very hot, especially those involving a lot of steps. Hatshepsut's temple looks stunning, but was also very crowded. I'd mentioned that I was celebrating my 75th birthday when we booked the trip, but it was a great surprise when Ahmed took us to an Alabaster factory where I was presented with a rendition of Happy Birthday and a large birthday cake, which was delicious.
