My journey with the Temple of Edfu - We traveled from Luxor to the Temple of Khanum, a journey of about an hour. The temple was absolutely magnificent, and the guide's explanation was excellent. After that, we moved on to the Temple of Edfu. The temple's colors are captivating. The distance from the Temple of Khanum to the Temple of Edfu is approximately an hour and a half.The driver was very calm and professional. After we finished, we went to the Temple of Kom Ombo, which was directly on the Nile. The temple is a masterpiece inside. After that, we went to Aswan and had lunch at a very, very clean restaurant. Therefore, I recommend Mohamed Abdo, the guide.World-renowned professional driver Ahmed Saber thanks you for your hard work.

Ahmed is the best - You'll have a choice of guides, and I really recommend ahmed. He's extremely knowledgeable, speaks great English, shared a lot of information beyond guidebooks. He also has a lot of local information and experience and never rushed us. We got terrific photos and enjoyed our time with him so much, we booked several whole-day tours. They felt like day trips with a friend. Most highly recommended.

An enjoyable trip worth experiencing - My trip to the Temple of Edfu with Mohamed, the excellent guide, was a trip worth experiencing. The Temple of Kom Ombo is one of the best temples directly on the Nile. Everything about the trip was excellent: the food, the guide, the car. I highly recommend it.
