Amazing Tour with Luxor Guide!

We had an incredible experience with our guide Marian Azer in Luxor! Her deep knowledge of Egypt’s history, engaging storytelling, and attention to detail made our trip unforgettable. She took us through the breathtaking temples and tombs with enthusiasm, ensuring we understood the rich culture and significance of each site. From the Valley of the Kings to Karnak Temple, every moment was well-planned and enjoyable. Highly recommend this guide for anyone visiting Luxor – professional, friendly, and truly passionate about their work!

Omar Haridi is the best tour guide in Egypt

Omar Haridi is undoubtedly the best tour guide in Egypt! He is highly informative, professional, and incredibly supportive. His tours are not only cost-effective but are also filled with joy thanks to his constant smile. Omar led us through a smooth and delightful 4-day journey, making it one of the happiest experiences of my life. I strongly recommend Omar to all my friends for their future trips. Omar, keep up the fantastic work, and I wish you all the best and a speedy recovery. We will never forget you. Special thanks to Omar’s family and dedicated team. Thank you immensely! 奧馬爾·哈里迪無疑是埃及最好的導遊!他非常知識淵博、專業且極其支持。他的旅行團不僅經濟實惠,而且因為他的笑容讓我們感到非常愉快。奧馬爾帶領我們度過了愉快的四天之旅,這是我一生中最開心的經歷之一。我強烈推薦奧馬爾給我所有的朋友。奧馬爾,請繼續保持你的出色工作,祝你一切順利並早日康復。我們永遠不會忘記你。特別感謝奧馬爾的家人和敬業的工作團隊。非常感謝!

Really nice day, well organized and informative.

It was a really nice day and we saw all the highlights of Luxor. Samar is excellent, she was energetic and very informative. The lunch was exceptional with the exception of the fish which was a little bitter. Samar kept us on schedule always mindful of making sure we use the time effectively while not rushing us at anytime. Quick tip . skip the authentic shopping experience ( it overpriced) unless you want to use the exceptionally clean washrooms.😀

Fantastic Luxor day trip

We had a really nice day tour in Luxor on both east and west banks. Our guide Ghada Kamel was very knowledgeable and experienced. We were picked up at 8.30am and we visited the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, Statues of Memnons, Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple. We also had a break for lunch. Our tour ended around 4.30pm. It was a very pleasant experience and Ms Ghada took good care of us. Overall this was our second day tour we booked with Egypt Tours Portal (1st one in Cairo) and we had a very nice experience. Highly recommending Egypt Tours Portal to everyone!

Mind blowing day

Excellent chauffeur and excellent very knowledgeable guide Samar Nagi. Not enough time at Karnak temple but it’s a massive place so very understandable. Not all of the itinerary was as described…. The lunch was not with views of the Nile but busy street view somewhere in Luxor. We had to ask for sailing on the Nile which in the end wasn’t on a traditional Felluca but nevertheless very enjoyable. They didn’t bring us to the colossi’s of Memnon either…

Luxor day trip

Omar our guide was excellent. He not only gave us a fantastic tour of Luxor but also followed up with our driver on the way to Luxor and met us the night before to help out. Omar was knowledgeable and interacted well with the family. If you’re in Luxor - ask for him!

Superb day with Marian as guide

Had a great day viewing the highlights of Luxor. Tour guide Marian, a Luxor "local" was superb, very well versed with Egyptian history, and most of all, completely relaxed about fitting in with timing, crowds etc. All transfers were exactly on time, and recommendations regarding maximising use of time in Luxor worked out perfectly. I'd recommend trip (& tour-guide Marian) to anyone wanting an enjoyable day in Luxor. Peter NZ

From USA to Luxor with 3 kids

Yet another amazing time in Egypt. I booked the company for most of my time in Egypt and they came through. our Tour guide Marian Azer was awesome for our time in Luxor. She was nice and knowledgeable about the locations. She was patient with my 4 year old who wouldn't stop with the questions. My 10 and 11 year old daughters still cant believe we went to Egypt. We had a great time and she was an amazing host. We felt safe every step of the way in Egypt. Thank you
