A Perfect walk through the Ancient History - Luxor was so much more than I expected. The historical significance of this place is so great. My experience was so wholesome. I planned to stay for 2 days in Luxor and made the most out of them as much as I could. My tour included visits to historical places from both East and West Bank and I found it to be sufficient to get a brief idea about the overall history and culture of the place. So if you are short of time, you can opt for these day tours and still make the most out of them. PS. Be careful while buying local cheap souvenirs as they aren’t authentic egyptian made. With that in mind, blend with the local culture and respect the traditions and support local community as much as possible. Happy Travelling 😊 cheers 🥂

Great way to see Luxor in a day! Bucket list experience! - This is a must do once in a lifetime experience. Valley of Kings is incredible. You get entry to 3 tombs and our guide recommended Ramses I, Ramses III and Ramses IV, all of which were amazing. I also paid extra to go in SETI I tomb which I cannot recommend enough. This was the highlight of the tour for me. Karnak temple and Luxor temple are both incredible. You could spend a lot longer at both, particularly Karnak, but it still didn’t feel rushed. Lunch was very good on this tour. Our Egyptologist was very knowledgeable and made everything really interesting.

Abdul is the man - Wow, what can I say. After spending hours looking at tours and reading reviews, we finally settled on this one and specifically requested to have Abdul as our guide - we were not disappointed! The tour itself is fantastic and is a great way to see the mainstays of Luxor in a day. The variety in the sites included gives you a great taste of everything from ancient tombs and burial sites to some of the grandest temples you will ever see, and also a bit of local culture as well. Whilst the sites themselves were fantastic, our entire experience was made by having Abdul as our guide. Abdul is extremely knowledgeable about the sites and Egyptian history, he was attentive to all the (very many) questions we had - and, most importantly, he is super friendly and made sure we had everything to enjoy our trip. We cannot speak more highly of Abdul and this tour. If (and when) we come back, we will most certainly be looking Abdul up again!

Abdul was absolutely the best - When I say this was the best part of my time in Egypt I mean it. Such beauty, such culture, amazing people, and overall an amazing experience. Our tour guide was Abdul and he is very knowledgeable, he has the accreditation and such charisma. He was very friendly and had me engaged the whole tour. I came out very knowledgeable from this trip and honestly feels as if I met a new friend. Highly recommended

Abdul is the best! - We had such a great day with Abdul! Hands down one of the most knowledgeable people I have ever met on the subject of Egypt. His passion and love for all things Egypt is one of the best things about him. He is so easy to get along with and I guarantee you will end the day knowing more than you ever thought you would about the history of Egypt. Abdul and Ramadan (our driver) were on time and friendly. Abdul truly felt like family by the end of the day. If you’re going to Luxor, book this tour and ask for Abdul! You won’t regret it.

Great day with incredible history - We had the most incredible day with our tour guide Hamdi. We arrived 40 minutes late due to our previous tour running over however Hamdi was a true gentleman and didnt mind. Not only was he very knowledgeable but he was so hospitable and always ensured we had refreshments and if we wanted to purchase something he took us where we got the best price. We learned so much history and we loved the valley of the kings and payed extra for king tuts tomb which I highly recommend. Luxor temple was also a must see as was hatshepsut temple. Overall great day

A Very Informative Tour - Awesome tour! We were picked up in a SUV from our hotel. The driver and our guide Ragab are very good English speakers. Ragab also knows a lot about Egyptian history and Luxor in general. Even lunch is great. Don't hesitate to book this tour.

Best tour of my travel around the world - I have been traveling with my wife the last 30 days, we where in paris, madrid, rome, firenze, athens, santorini and over 10 different places… and from all the tours and experiences i took, this tour Raj gave us was the most complete (he knows a lot), amazing and professional we had, we went to see many wonders and visited the best shops around with genuine stuff at incredible prices and at the end we had an amazing meal… i would tell anyone that comes to luxor, that this is the tour you must take. Thank you so much!!!

Egyptology Masterclass - We had a great with Khalid and Ramadan. Khalid’s knowledge of anything to do with ancient Egypt is nothing short of outstanding. We learned so much during this trip and no question remained unanswered. Great day highly recommend

Good, but with a very bad experience - This is a difficult review to write, as most of the tour was great, but unfortunately with one very bad experience. Our guide was definitely the best guide we had during our vacation in Egypt. He had a good energy, big knowledge, and he was very interesting to listen to. However, in the beginning the tour, we went to a shop where small stone figures were sold and it was clearly expected that we should buy something. Even though we asked several times abort the prices they wouldn’t tell us. It ended up being a very awkward and unpleasant situation where we felt fooled and compelled to pay extremely high prices for some figures that we didn’t actually wanted.
