Highlights
  • Karnak Open Air Museum - Karnak Temple on the East Bank of Luxor is the largest temple complex in Egypt to which no less than 30 pharaohs contributed.
    The complex is possibly the largest religious structure in the world. Karnak is distinguished from other temples in that it was built for so long by successive pharaohs. Construction began in the Middle Kingdom under Senusret I, about 1900 BC, although the largest buildings date from the New Kingdom. 30 Pharaohs participated in the entire project. Especially the size and number of buildings of Karnak is overwhelming. The guide will show you the most interesting and important places.
  • Luxor Temple - In the temple of Luxor, our knowledgeable Egyptologist guide shows the most beautiful details and tells some special stories about this magnificent temple in the middle of the city on the Nile.

10/10 recommend! - This company really goes above & beyond for you! We had both East/West bank tours with Alaadin. He was amazing! Very knowledgeable & passionate about the egyptian history, which made it a great experience. We also had Mostafa as a driver who made the ride enjoyable with good conversation. The chef at Malkata house makes some really good food. Everything was 10/10!

2 day tour of Luxor with Hamdy at Far and Beyond Travel - I was recommended Far and Beyond Travel and we we were certainly not disappointed with them for our private 4 person, 2 day tour of Luxor. Our guide was Hamdy and he was delightful. Very experienced and knowledgeable and really helpful with all our questions about hieroglyph translations. We actually booked two tours with Far and Beyond. A half day on the East Bank and a full day with lunch at Malkata House ( a delightful lunch stop next to Medinet Habu) on the West bank. They really were great. Comfy A/C Minivan , with a driver who drove really nicely . Hamdy was are guide on both days and I would really recommend him as well. Could not be more pleased with our trip to Luxor, I have literally just emailed Far and Beyond to book our tours in Cairo next week.

3 days with Samah - we had 5 days in luxor. Mr Yassin was so helpful and friendly and organized our private trips. First day abydos and dendera temples - not so famous but really amazing and adsolutly worth going there. next day assuan with philea temple, highdam and unfinished obelisk and third day karnak and luxor temples. Samah was so wunderful, It was my birthday trip and I will never forget her knowledge and her friendliness . She explained everything so well and could answer all our questions. I hope we will come back and meet Samah again !! Thanks for everything from Austria

Samah is the best!!! Can't wait to return in November!!! - This was a great tour. Samah was able to customize our tour dates and times around our schedule. We had a night tour in Luxor. The next day we spent the morning in Karnak and we were transported to the West Bank for Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut Temple. We had lunch at a great little open air restaurant and finished the day at a few other locations for photos. We are returning with a group in November. I would highly recommend Samah for all your touring needs.

Wonderful! - We are a family with young children and spent four days touring in Luxor. Because of our children, we only visited sites in the morning and didn't do full days. We all loved Luxor and had a wonderful time with our guide, Saber. I think he took some of the best family photos of us! He has an amazing ability to take the photo with practically no people in the background, making it look like you are the only ones there. We had an amazing time and if we ever return, I wouldn't hesitate to rebook.

Excellent tour guide. Highly recommended. - This was the second tour we did with these guys and was excellent. Aladin was our guide and he gave us a great overview of the temples. Very knowledgeable and very good storyteller. Strongly recommended. Nobody should visit Karnak and Luxor temples without a good guide and you can’t go wrong with these guys.
