Fabulous! - Salwa took us round the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut’s temple, Memnon statues and to the alabaster workshop. The tombs were superb (paid extra for Tutankhamun’s) as was the temple. Salwa’s knowledge was good and very interesting. Less good is the alabaster place - they are rip-off masters - but they do have to make an income somehow, and the free drink was most welcome! Emo Tours do this tour and are a very reliable firm! Enjoy it!

Really great day in Luxor - Shaban was really great at running Mega. It was all relaxed and he was super aligned with us and still showed us all the great sights and explained. Great atmosphere and a beautiful day.

Great experience - I had an amazing time guided by Mahmoud. A good balance of stories and independent time. Take the time to travel at your own pace, and marvel at the deep history.

Great half day in the West Bank! - Highly recommend this half day tour of the West Bank. Maria was so friendly and knowledgeable and very accommodating of our needs. She allowed us to take our time and really enjoy every stop, never making us feel rushed. Her demeanor really made the experience more enjoyable. We ended the day with an amazing lunch (also Maria’s recommendation). In my experience sometimes with the included lunches you sacrifice quality but this food was truly top notch. If we had spent more time in Luxor, definitely would have booked more tours with her and her agency — very kind and courteous people.

Fantastic guide - Our guide is local grown, very knowledgeable, and very nice. He even charged the driver in the morning to make our experience perfect. Thanks for the fantastic tour.

Amazing experience - reliable, informative and fun! - Amazing experience! Very kind driver and knowledgeable guide who took great care of us. The guide was very good at making the stories both informative and interesting, adding anecdotes and fun facts and telling us both about ancient history and modern Egyptian culture and politics. Good dosage of information for the 4 hours tour, we would have been able to digest more. We did a guided tour without lunch and with all the tickets included, as well as driver, and pick up/drop off at the hotel. Reliable and punctual! Very recommended!

Short time - Good tour - The whole experience was good. We took only half day tour to West Bank. The tombs are slightly overhyped. The guide was good and he was slightly old and strict with the people around. He was very punctual. However the lunch place was nice but food was not that great. We did multiple tours in Egypt , food in this restaurant was not great. View was good. It was on Nile. Guide was pushing us to book other tours with them directly. Which we didn’t encourage.

The tour itself met... - The tour itself met expectations. The tour guide was pushy, deterring us from visiting too many tombs and kinda rushing us the whole time. I was recovering from an illness and also had my mom with me who needs time to get to places (hence booked the private tour so we can be at our own pace). If you would like to spend more time exploring the tombs, I would recommend not having a tour guide (private or not)

incompetant management - Hapless & Hopeless Management Jan 2025 • Friends A full day tour to visit 6 attractions on the West bank , ended abruptly after the visit of just 3 . Mobile protests to the local taxi and EMO management on the day were ignored. Later EMO said they would refund but didn't .
