Beautiful morning with our guide Abdelwahab and our driver Mo. Our guide was very professional and attentive. Passionate about Egyptology, he loves to share his knowledge. He adapted well to our level of English, never hesitating to repeat or explain. Our driver had exemplary driving skills. Thank you again to both of you.

Our private tour with Abdel was great! He has extensive historical and cultural knowledge, offering good information and taking time to answer all of our questions. He was very personable and welcoming. The length of the tour was just right - not rushed. My husband and I highly recommend Abdel as a guide!

Ahmed, our tour guide, and Alaa, our driver, picked us up from our hotel. They were very punctual and provided some water before we kicked off. The first stop was the Valley of the Kings. Ahmed was very knowledgeable about the area and the various tombs that we visited. We visited the tombs for Rameses IV, Merenptah, Rameses III, Tutankhamun and Rameses V and VI. Ahmed was very helpful when I lost one of my tickets too. The tombs were amazing and the highlight of our Egyptian tour. Next, we stopped by a souvenir store, which has much nicer items than the street sellers. Their prices are much higher than they are willing to take, so be prepared to haggle. The temple for Queen Hatshepsut was next on the agenda. Ahmed able to explain some of the pictures depicted on the walls and it provided great context to what we saw. The temple itself did at the bottom of cliffs, and the feeling it gives you is very different from the photos. The final stop was the Colossi of Memnon. This was really an opportunity for photos, there isn't much left of the ruins besides a few statues. Overall, the half day tour was well worth it. Ahmed provided great commentary and really liked after us. The only dampener was the heat, I would recommend going as early as possible to avoid the heat as much as you can. Thank you Ahmed and Alaa

Our guide was very friendly and had a lot of knowledge. As a result, he told a lot and the story was not easy to follow. We would have preferred to hear the core and highlights. We showed that too, but that was not taken up. If you are interested in the full history of the pharaohs and how the families work, this tour is a good choice. If you are looking for more of the common thread and interesting facts, choose someone else.
