Book. this. tour! - My guide Rabie is the best guide one can get. As an Egyptologist he is very knowledgeable and caters to your wishes and specific questions. I came for the architecture and he showed me edifices I didn't know I wanted to see! Ala the driver was very smooth and calm on the road, making the trip to all the sights very comfortable. To anybody who wants to know the most of the culture, history and religion of ancient Egypt, book this tour!

Valley is Luxor - Thank you Shimiaa for visiting the East Luxor Valley. The explanations were clear, interesting and helpful. We even asked to walk "The Alley of the Sphinx" (alley that connects one temple to the other), she agreed with a smile to wait for us at the other temple for the time of our walk. Magic Carpet is therefore strongly recommended for their professionalism and organization.

Excellent agency and guide - Excellent tour with Ahmed, our very knowledgeable guide, and Alla our driver. The tour was organized on very late notice (9PM for a pickup 6AM the next day) and everything was just perfect. We can only recommend.

Great tour of the West Bank!!! - Ask for Shimiaa Rabie - a highly educated and great tour guide who was more than equipped to answer the numerous questions throughout the tour, not just about the history but the wider area. Visited the Valley of the Kings and other sites on the Nile West Bank, it was a great day and whilst very busy she helpfully guided through the history of the area and the links between each of the sites and the city itself! I would highly reccomend!!!

Highly recommendable tour with an extremely good guide! - Thanks to our extremely knowledgeable and friendly guide Shimiaa Rabia the tour became an unforgettable experience. She is a university trained Egyptologist and very experienced guide who knows how to convey the necessary context an info about the visited places in a highly professional and at the same time entertaining manor. So those temples and tombs became very much alive for us! In addition Shimiaa also was a reliable guide and big help when it came to questions concerning souvenirs and prices. Shukran so much Shimiaa!

Fly away on the magic carpet of exploring - Great group of people offering nice trips all around Egypt. We did a balloon trip above Luxor and then visited Valley of Kings and Hatshepsut temple. Our guide Adem and driver Mahmed did amazing job showing us the beautiful places near Luxor and gave us good tips. I can definitely recommend this company. It is not the cheapest option, but it is definitely the best. They are professionals. You will not get similar experience with anyone else. Good job!

everything was going well until... - We did a two-day tour of Luxor, staying at the Nefertiti Hotel. Our guide was Mohamed Mustafa, who explained everything about each site well. We drove both days and everything went smoothly and normally. When we left the tour, the guide made a lot of emphasis on giving the driver a VERY GOOD tip. It was our last day in Egypt and our budget was finished. We gave him everything we had, which was not much, but it was everything. When I was giving it to the driver, the guide took the money, counted it in front of us and said contemptuously, "Do you think this is a good tip?" We were very uncomfortable trying to explain to him that we didn't have any more, that that was all, since our trip was over. The guide said that we should go to the ATM to get some money and tip him, that they would wait for us. I was really stunned. Explaining whether or not I had money in my account seemed like too much for me, so we left the conversation there and left. I reported this to our Magic Carpet coordinator Bassel Osama, who took the complaint and apologized very cordially, which is appreciated. I fully understand the tipping culture in the country and we tipped absolutely all the guides and drivers we had on the entire trip, but this situation was horrible and uncomfortable and ruined the nice image we had formed of Egypt during the week of travel. It was disappointing and we were all left with a bad taste in our mouths. Know that people tip as much as they can, remember that it is not obligatory to tip as well.
