A trouble-free excursion thanks to our driver Taha who was efficient and warm. He pointed us in the right direction to avoid harassment of vendors outside the sites. A little sick, we had to shorten our day trip and Taha was helpful and attentive.

Thank you guide Mina and driver Mahmoud for such a lovely day! We learned so much about the history and saw many historical sights, also the smaller less touristy ones. We also enjoyed a delicious local lunch at a restaurant nearby. It's the best to discover Luxor with a guide, since they explain you all the details that you would otherwise miss.

We just booked a driver for the day to avoid hassle and make our tour of the Valley of the Kings simpler. We were very pleased to have done so! Our driver, Taha, was excellent. He was waiting outside our hotel on time and was helpful and flexible throughout the day. We had been ill so wanted to miss some stops on the tour to walk a little slower and have more breaks and he was happy to support as needed. Taha spoke excellent English which really helped with the planning. Thanks for making our visit to Luxor so straightforward and enjoyable.

Ahmed is a person with diverse experiences which made him great company too besides being a well educated tour guide. He didn't left any of my questions unanswered and also had good tips throughout the day, like where what to watch out for. There are some places where tour guides can't go inside, which is normal in Egypt, but in these cases he supplied all the relevant information beforehand and also asked me afterwards, how it was, or whether did I had any questions left. Also, he was very flexible on what to visit and for how long, so in overall, I had a great experience, the tour was well built and I never felt that something was missed out. I'd recommend Ahmed for a relaxed, but highly informative experience!
