Complete Scam – Avoid This Egypt Tour at All Costs
This was by far the worst tour of our entire Egypt trip — it felt like a complete scam. I specifically booked this most expensive tour because it was advertised as a professional, history-focused, no-shopping experience. Unfortunately, the reality was the opposite: 1. The advertised “full-day” tour turned out to be only half a day. 2. The guide immediately began hinting at shopping stops once we got into the vehicle. At the very first site (Valley of the Kings), he tried to sell us personalized name panels, and when I asked questions about Egyptian history, he quickly lost patience. Later, he even attempted to arrange an unlisted stone-shopping stop. 3. Unlike other guides who accompanied their groups inside and explained the sites, our guide left us to visit alone without meaningful guidance. Even after I reminded him of our expectations, nothing improved. 4. The guide provided misleading information and tried to cut short our visits. For example, he claimed that the tombs in the Valley of the Kings were “all the same” and told us there was no point in seeing more than three. 5. At the end, he still pushed for tips and even tried to pressure us psychologically (“PUA style”), which was extremely uncomfortable. 6. He openly said he wasn’t tied to this tour company and just worked for whoever assigned him, which explains the complete lack of professionalism or accountability. Overall, this was a deeply disappointing and dishonest experience. It wasted both our money and our trust. I strongly warn others to avoid this tour.

Luxor, not to be missed, a wonder!
Superb visit to the temples and tombs of Luxor. Not to be missed, these are true wonders of history. The bus picks you up from the hotel, the guide is French, and everything is included in the price of 60 euros per adult (30 euros children) the journey, visits, food and water. You can trust them, everything is organized on top and without any false ratings.

Amazing experience! Would definitely recommend
We had Roshdy as our tour guide, who was amazing! He spoke very good english, was on time and waited patiently for us at the hotel. He contacted me the evening before the tour and offered whether we wanted to start earlier than our booked time as he rightly said it would be quite hot already if we started at 10AM. The van was airconditioned and our driver hamdy also drove with much care. Roshdy gave us lots of tips and made sure we were safe, and gave us great pointers (such as to avoid sitting at the front with the driver - on the 'gulf buggies', as the driver would ask for tip/money). He was very attentive and knew that we were not used to the heat and so made sure he rang the driver to get the aircon on to ensure that whenever we go back to the van it was nice and cool. Roshdy was also very knowledgeable and patient with us. We went to the sites that was on our tour itinerary, and he gave us the tickets to luxor temple as that was supposed to be our last stop. However he saw that we were already exhausted at that point and suggested he could give us the tickets to explore it either in the evening or the day after in our own time. The only thing to say however is that unfortunately one of the tickets he had given us - was apparently already used and the temple would not accept it so one of my friends had to buy their ticket, I'm sure this was just an accident and not done on purpose / an error with the ticket as all the other tickets given to us were fine. Overall I would definitely recommend this company / tour and especially our tour guide, Roshdy!! Thank you again Roshdy, you made us all feel comfortable and safe during this whole tour.

Best day in Egypt thus far
A massive thank you to Roshdy our guide and Ahmed our driver for an amazing day in Luxor. Both gentlemen provided us with a brilliant experience seeing all the sites in Luxor. Both extremely friendly and trust worthy with everything throughout the day. Would recommend them both to anyone visiting Luxor.

Luxor
This was one of the best guided tours we’ve ever had. Everything was organized perfectly. The car was spacious, clean, and cool thanks to the air conditioning, which made traveling comfortable. The food we had along the way was okay and met our expectations. The highlight for me was the guide’s talent for explaining everything in a simple, easy-to-understand way without overloading us with information. He was friendly, approachable, and always willing to answer questions. The day felt relaxed yet informative, and we truly enjoyed every moment. I would highly recommend his services to anyone visiting Egypt in the future.

Good tire guide Berry
Our full‑day tour to the Karnak Temple Complex, Luxor Temple, the Temple of Hatshepsut, the Valley of the Kings, and the Colossi of Memnon met our expectations. Our guide, Barry, was very friendly and kept us engaged with fascinating insights about each site we visited. It was an unforgettable experience, and we came away with a wealth of new knowledge about these remarkable places.

Valley of the Kings tour
Barry served as my tour guide during the Valley of the Kings tour, and he was exceptional. He was friendly, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable. I felt supported and well-guided throughout the experience. I left the tour feeling both amazed and appreciated. I highly recommend Barry to anyone looking for a tour guide, especially given the often confusing process of booking a tour.

I must mention that our tour guide Roshdy was very knowledgeable, attentive and very friendly, I can say that he is one of the best tour guide in Luxor and will definitely recommend him to other visitors of the city.
