A wonderful tour company, with you as their priority. - We were assisted by Mohammed Anwar in booking our trip. He booked everything for us at an incredibly affordable price and made sure we felt comfortable and happy at every step of the process. When we got very sick the night before the original trip, we texted him at 4AM to try and rearrange and he immediately was up helping us sort it out. He then gave us a very clear set of options to ensure we still were able to enjoy our visit to the max. Without him, we wouldn’t have had the fantastic experience we did and we highly recommend him to help you organise your excursions. The excursions themselves were also exceptional. We had a half day visiting the West Bank and then a hot air balloon ride over Luxor. My partner and I are both keen historians, especially with Egyptian history, and the guide that came with us on the half day - Ahmed - gave us not only a very comprehensive overview of the sites, but was also a wonderful storyteller and incredibly knowledgeable, so we came away with all of our questions answered. We had a very comfortable car, with excellent AC and they provided water for us throughout the trip, much needed as 40° heat on the edge of the Sahara Desert is hard to deal with, especially when you’re used to English weather… I would advise that you listen to their timings as we arrived at The Valley of the Kings at around 7.45AM and by 8AM we were sweltering in the tombs, which get incredibly hot very quickly. In our ~5-hour tour we visited: The Valley of the Kings (the 3 open temples and Tutankhamun’s tomb which you have to buy as an extra), Hatshepsut’s Temple, The Memnon Statues, The Valley of the Nobles, and The Habu Temple of Rameses III. Each one was incredible in its own sense, but our winner was definitely the tomb of Rameses IV; it had so much humanity and beauty, and we were quite overcome with how amazing it was. We both highly recommend that you not only use this company but let them guide your experience as we visited sites and tried things we didn’t even know we could. The hot air balloon flight was a magical experience and the 4AM wake up meant we could seize the day and visit lots of temples before the heat really got up. 10/10 5 stars

Just book - professional and fair priced - We booked with these guys downstairs of Hilton Luxor, after our existing operator was a nightmare to deal with. Confirmed our trip for 9am start at 930pm the night before. Car quality was one of the best we have seen since landing into Egypt. Guide was professional - gave us plenty of guidance but also gave us space when we wanted it. Didn’t try to upsell much. Most enjoyable day with a wonderful team. Thank you for showing us the West Bank of luxor

Book this tour! Nermeen is the best tour guide ever! - Book this tour!! It was absolutely wonderful. We did the full day tour of Luxor valley of the kings, temple of Hatshepsut, and Karnak temple. Our guide, Nermeen (aka Nana), was the BEST!! She is so friendly and she knows everything about Egyptian history. She told us many stories of ancient Egypt and answered all of our questions. I highly recommended this tour. The van is nice, with air conditioning. Nermeen chose a delicious place to stop for lunch. My family and I enjoyed this trip very much and absolutely recommend to everyone when you visit Luxor. Look no further, book this tour! Ask for Nermeen, she is wonderful.

Very good West bank tour - Mr. Abanoub was very patient when making our booking. He answered all of our questions and helped us choose the perfect day tour for us. 5/5 service. The tour guide (Mr. Raymond) and driver did everything they were required to do (i.e. take us to each destination in an A/C vehicle, give us brief descriptions, etc). They did no more, no less. We were very happy that they did not rush us. We love taking our time and they allowed us to do so. 4/5 service.

Fantastic time in Luxor - Our tour guide’s name is Nermeen. She accompanied us for 2 days visiting all the important sites on the east and west banks of Luxor. She was wonderful, prompt, very well informed and very patient with all our questions. There was not one question that she didn’t have a full answer to. I thought that she must have had at least a Master’s degree in ancient Egyptian history, but she said she just loves to read about her work and be well informed. She was appropriate in everything she did, giving us time to explore on our own if we wanted, giving us advise about how to handle different situations. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great guide. She’s a native of the great city of Luxor who’s passionate about her work and loves to help people get to know her city and appreciate it.

NASCO tour and the walking Encyclopedia named Nana - If you ever happen to stay in Steigenberger Nile Palace and wanted to do a day tour around Luxor, look for the NASCO Tour Desk and ask for the tour guide to be Nereem (Nana). She's a valuable asset in preserving the history of Egypt. She knows a lot and she answered ALL my questions without hesitation. She's a nice person, funny and accommodating. She even taught me how to read hieroglyphics (now every time I see a Duck and a Sun in one picture, I'll call it SaRa.) I also want to say thank you to our driver Emad. Great team. 👍
