Amazing guide Nana

Nana was an amazing guide, her English was excellent and her knowledge second to none. She made us safe by telling us what to look out for so we were not scammed. She took us to clean restrooms and made this trip truly memorable. Despite the 3am pick up this trip was worth it in time and money. I would highly recommend this to others

Knowledgeable and entertaining guide

Nana was a knowledgeable guide. Besides providing info on the Luxor tombs, she also helped us not get scammed by sellers when using the WC and buying souvenirs. She also advised on which bathrooms where in good or bad conditions, and organized the logistics around the visit for us. We definitely recommend Nana to anyone visiting Luxor.

Great day trip to Luxor!

Nana was exceptional. She communicated clearly with a light sense of humour and was an incredibly knowledgeable archaeologist. The tour was very well organized from start to finish. Lunch was ok. Liked the unlimited supply of cold water for drinking and ensuring that we stay in the shade as much as possible to avoid overheating. Highly recommended!

5 stars

Shaban explained the history behind the temples and tombs during the tour. He was able to answer every single question we asked and explain everything down to the smallest detail. It was a great pleasure to experience the journey with him. Always happy!

Nice trip but with a scam scheme

The trip itself was nice and not rushed. Our guide Ahmed was cool. BUT the tour includes a stop at a shop for alabaster pieces (Tohotmos) where they totally scam tourists. We picked a figurine of Bastet and agreed on a price, while we were paying the guy went packing the figurine where he clearly replaced the stone one. The thing we discovered after unpacking is 100% made of gypsum or some similar material covered with dye.

Unforgettable excursion to Luxor

Sharan Today we were in a private tour group of 20 people in Luxor and the Valley of the Kings. We were accompanied by our guide Shaban, who superbly looked after us in every respect: He was very knowledgeable, kept our group together well, gave us important tips regarding business and scams. The whole always friendly and in good German. The bus company and drivers were always reliable and courteous. Lunch was okay. We had a great day and saw an incredible amount: Karnak temple complex, Luxor, Nile cruise, Valley of the Kings.... It's incredible! Thank you
