Must do experience in Luxor - If you are in Luxor and want to hit all the major attractions in one day, this is a must do all day tour. Our guide, Mohamed Awad, accompanied us all day starting from 6am to beat the crowd. He is not only a knowledgeable egyptologist, he is well organized and helped us cut all the chaos at the sites we visited and saved us a lot of time. Definitely a must do tour when you are in Luxor and highly recommended to use a guide.

Great day on the West bank - We had a great experience on the West Bank with our guide Abdelwahab! He reached out the day before to confirm our 9am pickup the following day. He and the driver arrived a few minutes early! During the tour he explained Egyptian history in detail. For the valley of the Kings, tour guides were not allowed inside the tombs, so he explained everything outside of each so we knew had context going in. For the temples, he was able to accompany us and explain the hieroglyphs! Our favorite was Medinet Habu! Would recommend this experience!

I really recommend it. - They customized the location and duration of the visit to suit their needs. The guide explained and guided me carefully, and thanks to his presence I was able to travel efficiently, learning about the sights and historical background of each site, and it was a truly wonderful tour, even though the cost was reasonable compared to other tours.

It was so ***** up. - I chose a guided tour. It was so great. When I asked to visit a total of six royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings, including the optional royal tombs, he cheerfully took about three hours to explain in detail. If we went around on our own, we wouldn't know the order of the visits, the highlights of each royal tomb, the historical background, etc., and we would have ended up just taking pictures and doing it in a crowded place. During the subsequent visits to the Queen Hatshepsut Funeral Hall and Ramses III Funeral Hall, they explained to us first and showed us around some of the most remarkable places, so that we could visit as long as we wanted. The knowledge of the guides was also wonderful, and I enjoyed listening to them, and I was more interested in the history of ancient Egypt. Thank you so much for customizing it according to our request! Thank you, guide Abdelwahab, for the amazing tour!!! Thanks for teaching me so much about Egyptian history!! It was a really fun and unforgettable day, spending time with you and learning a lot.

An unforgettable tour in Luxor/Westbank! - A great tour with all the highlights of the West Bank of Luxor. Seeing the temples with their hieroglyphics and images, the columns and the paintings of the tombs in reality was simply stunning! Egypt Lovely Tours team was worth every penny! Mahmoud, the driver: friendly and a very safe and prudent driver! We always felt in good hands. Abdelwahab, our guide: courteous and with a profound knowledge of Egyptian culture. Could even read and translate individual passages of the hieroglyphics (I really didn't expect that from a guide!!). The graves of the Pharaohs and the workers were really great painted: no illustrated book or guidebook like this reproduces this. Overall, a successful and entertaining day with two friendly and prudent staff of the tour operator! Conclusion: this company and this team actually deserve 6 stars.😊

Luxor number one - We went to five tourist spots, a restaurant and a stone workshop (souvenir shop) from 6:30 in the morning to 4 pm. I took my time to see each tourist destination and my driver Mahmod was very friendly and taught me a lot. For lunch, we were taken to his recommended restaurant, where we ate Nile fish and Egyptian-style chicken. It was delicious. Finally, they took us to the hotel, put our luggage down, and drove us to our next destination. It was my first time in Luxor, but it was a smooth ride and a really good tour.

Recommended - The tour went as expected, although the driver did not speak English which would have improved our experience. He was also very friendly, helpful and punctual.
