Great tour, great experience

Mostafa is very friendly and professional tour guide. His vehicle is superb clean, comfy, and has strong AC - which is a real lifesaver in Egyptian heat. Throughout the trip, he shared many interesting facts about the places we visited. We’re very satisfied with his service and highly recommend him to anyone wanting a private tour in Luxor.

It was such a fun tour,...

It was such a fun tour, especially thanks to Mostafa who kept things lively and engaging the whole time! He made us laugh with his great sense of humor and made the trip so much easier despite the heat. Plus, there was zero time pressure, so we had all the time I needed to explore every spot at my own pace. If you're looking for a fun and stress-free tour, I highly recommend this!

Great day with our guide Sayed!

Sayed was great. Very nice and knowledgeable, only recommendation would be to do Hatshepsut temple first if you’re going on a very hot day. Stick with your guide so the workers near the entrances of each site don’t bother you or try to show you anything (for a tip). Overall great experience. just say “no thank you” to the guys at the entrances of each tomb or site, if they don’t stop ignore them. Another thing that I really liked about Sayed , he didn’t mention or even hint at tipping one time. Therefore got a good tip. Other guides elsewhere might hint at it or talk about it, Sayed did not do that . He was great for many reasons!!

Highly recommend!!

We had such an incredible day with TAG Tours! Our guide was so friendly and incredibly knowledgeable, sharing so much amazing history and so many interesting facts throughout the day. He even shared some of his own family history with us, which was such a cool and personal addition to the experience. It was an extremely hot day, and we really appreciated how flexible and accommodating he was in adjusting the tour to suit us and making sure we were comfortable while still getting the most out of the day. We had such a great experience and would absolutely recommend TAG Tours to anyone visiting. Thank you so much for an incredible and memorable day!

Ibrahim was the best!

We had Ibrahim as our guide for two days. He was so polite and informative- we learnt so much about ancient Egypt!! He made sure we were safe, comfortable and allowed us to take our time. He was also very caring when my wife felt unwell, offering to help us get some medication. Ibrahim was the highlight of our trip- we are very grateful we got to explore Luxor with him!

Half day trip to Luxor West Bank

The whole experience was incredible, Mostafa really made our half day trip an experience to remember. Really talkative and informative, even though we had only booked the driver option. Went above and beyond in everything, even spontaneously buying us some local treats whilst we were at one of our stops. Would 1000% recommend to anyone looking for a driver or day trip in and around Luxor.
