We extend our sincere gratitude to Mohamed for his exceptional guidance and making our Luxor exploration truly memorable - We had an amazing experience exploring Luxor's west bank with Mohamed. He guided us through all the major attractions, including the famous Valleys of the Kings and Queens, as well as the impressive Hatshepsut's Temple, which happened to be my personal favorite. We were given plenty of time to fully appreciate each site, and there were even options to extend our stay if we wanted to delve deeper into a particular place. One of the highlights was witnessing the fascinating process of alabaster production. Although we ended up making a purchase, we were pleasantly surprised by the great price we obtained, and there was absolutely no pressure or obligation to buy anything.
