Ramses 5 and 6 worth the extra money - We sas seti 1 and Ramses 5 and 6 in addition to the 3 tombs you can choose and our favourite was Ramses 5 and 6 . Seti 1 is also very beautiful. But moe expensive. Ahmed our guide helped contextualise the tombs we saw and helped us spot details we would have otherwise not seen. He suggested two tombs in the valley of the nobles both of which were an interesting insight into the daily lives of ordinary people. We especially enjoyed the tomb of sennofer which is a steep climb down but has a beautiful decoration of grapes and domestic life.

Wonderful tour of the West Bank in Luxor - A fascinating tour of the West Bank with our excellent guide, Ahmed Kassem, who was very friendly and knowledgeable, and also acted as our guide for the separate tour of the East Bank. Ahmed really helped us to appreciate the history of the Luxur, including the Valley of the Kings. We paid extra to view the tomb of Seti, which was a real highlight. The whole trip was well organised and communication with EMO tours was very easy. I would certainly recommend.

Amazing tour guide made the experience invaluable - Emo Tours has helped me on more than five occasions during my stay in Egypt. My two tours in Luxor (East and West Bank on separate days) were my best experiences with Emo.
While I have found Eno Tours staff to be very polite, friendly, and flexible in general, the specific guide for Luxor - Ayman - is noteworthy. Not only he is very knowledgeable, his passion for Egyptian history is infectious. Further, he was very generous with providing context and anecdotes. He made the Luxor tours very enjoyable.

Perfect Guide and excellent experience. - I traveled solo to the whole of Egypt. Some days and placed I booked tour or private car with driver through Emo Tours. This time i had Samar (Sam) as my guide and Islam as my driver for the Luxor West Bank. I had a wonderful time. Sam was super knowledgeable and understanding. I learned so much and I would highly recommend you book your guide with Sam as the information given is key to exploring and understanding The west bank sites. Very clean car with air conditioning which was highly needed.
