Luxor day tour
We had a great experience with Roshdy. He was kind, funny, and easy to chat with. Also, he was very knowledgeable about Luxor's history and guided us through a wonderful day. He was so kind, when I asked about purchasing a scarf, he brought us to a local maker where we got to see them weave the scarfs and had amazing textiles (for all budgets!). We only had one day to spend in Luxor and Roshdy made it great!

Roshdy is AWESOME
Roshdy was amazing! He took very good care of us and made sure we had an awesome time. He was smart and informative but also very funny and made us feel like we were hanging out with a dear friend.

Thorough and educating.
We were picked up late because of a misunderstanding of hotel location even though I did clearly include the address. The day was expertly led with a nice lunch. We were not taken to the valley of the queens even though the event list said we had paid the entrance fee to that location. The Alabaster place was nice but preferred to skip the oils place and gone to Medinet Habu which I would recommend.

Solo Traveler - 1st time visiting Egypt
Tour Guide: Mohamed
Driver: Mahmoud
- Easy and punctual pick-up: Mahmoud picked me up from the airport on time and greeted me politely. It was a very long day for Mahmoud with a 7am pick-up and then dropped back to the airport that evening at 6pm.
- Clean and hygienic car and professional driver: Mahmoud was a good driver, helpful and polite.
- Time management: I was able to see all the places on the itinerary with sufficient time to explore each place.
- Helpful guide: Mohamed went above and beyond. He is a fountain of knowledge. I really enjoyed learning the history of each place.
As a solo traveler both the men made me feel comfortable and safe.

Guía puede ser inexperto y exigente
Guía sin experiencia actuando como un maestro de escuela
No estaba seguro de quién me está guiando, yo o ella.
Conocimientos adquiridos de los libros.
Pero la operadora encontró una buena solución cuando fue reemplazada. La otra guía era buena

Learning with an exceptional guide about Luxor
Very well planned and detailed tour of all the major temples and tombs in and around Luxor. Our guide Hassan Maghripy was very knowledgeable, attentive and passionate when talking about the history and life of Ancient Egypt, delving into both the larger stories and minute details of the design. He even taught us how to read the hieroglyphics, and identify the gods and goddesses. He prioritised visiting and spending time at the sites as we wanted, over lunches and shop visits. We spent the whole day (over 8 hours!) with him easily, and only wish we had begun the trip sooner than 9 am so we could get more time at each site. The driver Ahdab was also very helpful and careful on the winding roads. Highly recommend this tour and Hassan personally. Luxor opens earlier (6 am) than Cairo and Giza, so suggest starting the tour as early as possible.

Unforgetable tour
Absolutely amazing day with Hassan. He was so good keeping our boys engaged whilst keeping adults interested with so many cool facts and explanations. We covered so much, had enough free time and the tour included pretty extensive and a really good quality lunch. We really enjoyed our day and I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone.

Great Trip / Wonderful Guide
Luxor has so many wonders. The tour I went on was great in getting to see these in a single day and with all the arrangements including transportation and tickets taken care.
Mansor was the best guide I have yet had in Egypt. Smart, respectful, responsive and speaking very good English.
Well worth the spending the extra money on this tour.
Very highly recommended.

Fantastic sites and guide
The sites we visited on this tour were fantastic. The Valley of the Kings was the highlight and the tombs were beautifully decorated. We opted to pay and visit the 3 optional tombs which were all worth the cost. If on a stricter budget at least do Tut and Ramses IV/V.
Our guide Roshdy was phenomenal and our favorite guide during our 10 days in Egypt. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about all the ancient sites but did not overload with information. He let us take our time with pictures and exploring without rushing and we could take all the time we wanted. Roshdy was very good-natured and humorous. He was also very kind and considerate to include concern for my daughter who was not feeling well and even bought her a souvenir as a late birthday gift when he happened to find out it occurred a couple days prior.
We did have a problem with communications with the tour operator who lacked responsiveness and created some confusion with the start time. This was not the fault of the guide or driver who showed up promptly at the pickup point based on the time they were provided. That resulted in starting an hour later than expected but it did not end up having an impact on the tour itself. I still rated this tour 5 stars despite this due the quality of our guide Roshdy and the magnificence of the sites visited.
Overall strongly recommend.
