Mind blowing day - Excellent chauffeur and excellent very knowledgeable guide Samar Nagi. Not enough time at Karnak temple but it’s a massive place so very understandable. Not all of the itinerary was as described…. The lunch was not with views of the Nile but busy street view somewhere in Luxor. We had to ask for sailing on the Nile which in the end wasn’t on a traditional Felluca but nevertheless very enjoyable. They didn’t bring us to the colossi’s of Memnon either…

Luxor day trip - Omar our guide was excellent. He not only gave us a fantastic tour of Luxor but also followed up with our driver on the way to Luxor and met us the night before to help out. Omar was knowledgeable and interacted well with the family. If you’re in Luxor - ask for him!

Superb day with Marian as guide - Had a great day viewing the highlights of Luxor. Tour guide Marian, a Luxor "local" was superb, very well versed with Egyptian history, and most of all, completely relaxed about fitting in with timing, crowds etc. All transfers were exactly on time, and recommendations regarding maximising use of time in Luxor worked out perfectly. I'd recommend trip (& tour-guide Marian) to anyone wanting an enjoyable day in Luxor. Peter NZ

From USA to Luxor with 3 kids - Yet another amazing time in Egypt. I booked the company for most of my time in Egypt and they came through. our Tour guide Marian Azer was awesome for our time in Luxor. She was nice and knowledgeable about the locations. She was patient with my 4 year old who wouldn't stop with the questions. My 10 and 11 year old daughters still cant believe we went to Egypt. We had a great time and she was an amazing host. We felt safe every step of the way in Egypt. Thank you

Omar the Great - Omar is the best guide in Egypt hands down. He taught us to read hieroglyphics in a few hours He was entertaining and just so much fun He went above and beyond and made sure we were taken care of in regard to a flight issue We couldn't reach the tour company and he took it upon himself to help us navigate a challenging situation. One of the couples on our tour left his watch on the bus and Omar personally retrieved the watch, drove to the airport and made sure the gentleman recieved his watch before the flight left. Omar sat down and ate with us and gave c recommendations on what was good to eat He bought us water and gave us a bracelet as a souvenir. Omar did not put us in an uncomfortable position with vendors. He was so accommodating. I would recommend Omar to anyone He IS the #1 best guide in Egypt

Best Tour guy in Luxor “Omar” - We had an Amazing time with Omar in Luxor! From the start he was very entertaining and informative on the history of Egypt and the layout of this ancient city. You could feel his passion for the stories he shared and he painted the pictures with his detailed descriptions. He was clear with the plans for the day, the options for water, food, and time frames for our visits. We enjoyed absolutely every second with him and would strongly suggest booking him as your tour guide in Luxor. You won’t regret your time with Omar aka “Ramses grandson”

Definitely Worth Doing - This is an excellent private tour. We had a very comfortable van, two drivers and a superb guide. We saw everything on the agenda but were able to adjust the itinerary as we saw fit. Included an excellent lunch. I would give this a 5 except for the fact that you have to exit the port to meet the tour, and are dropped outside to walk back to your ship.
