Great experience - Great experience and the tour guide was great. Ask to have Sayed Gamal for your guide because he was extremely friendly and descriptive.

Amazing experience start to finish! - We booked this full day private tour Viator and had an amazing, personalised experience! Our guide Syed Gamal contacted us from the day before confirming all the details which was reassuring. We met him on the morning and he arrived promptly with a driver Ammar. The car was a new Chery Tiggo which was very comfortable for the day tour. Syed is clearly very knowledgeable and experienced. His depth of knowledge was amazing and there wasn't a question he couldn't answer. He spoke clearly and very easy to understand. It was hot and busy day but we didn't feel rushed and having an 8 year old with us they were very mindful as we had to take breaks. The lunch place was very nice also and overall had a great experience. Ammar drove very safely and we were dropped and picked up from each location at the entrance, no waiting around. Amazing experience start to finish!

Informative private trip to valley of the kings and Karnak temple - We contacted Luxor Egypt Tours and they provided a quick response with a competitive quote compared to other companies. We had a great trip with our guide Sayeed (driven by Ahmed) to the Valley of the Kings and Karnak temple. Sayeed was very personable and informative. We really enjoyed it

Great historical day with Mr Sayed Gamal - Excellent tour, especially our guide Mr Sayed Gamal's knowledge with history is academic level and he knows many details that are not commonly known. He is also a compelling storyteller. A day well spent. Our driver Omar has also been very patient with us. Both of them have taken us to an extra monument on request as they were impressed by our historical curiosity.

The best time in Luxor and Valley of the Kings! - We had a great trip with Sayed Amel, our guide and Amar, our driver. Sayed brought us straight to the most beautiful tombs in the Valley of the Kings, with all the tickets ready to go. It was well organised and Sayed was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about sharing his experience about the history of the pharaoh’s, as well as the tombs, land and symbolism - which only a guide can truly help you understand. The lunch was also incredible, really great quality food (some of the best we’d had in Luxor) and to top it all off Karnak temples and Luxor temple were particular highlights for us. In total we spent about 7 hours on the tour, including lunch, and a short stop at a local alabaster factory where we picked up some lovely gifts. Overall I’d really recommend this tour, Sayed was warm, welcoming and happy to answer all our questions.

Luxor full day hitting all highlights - Angie our guide was punctual and friendly and subtly kept a very busy tour day on time. She is very knowledgeable and engaged fully with us on our questions and curiosity. Good lunch stop. Hassan the driver was a very safe and courteous driver with a very comfortable air-conditioned van. A very good day.

Excellent and Full of Amazing places - Amazing tour around the best Temples in Luxor and our guide, Mr. Sayed Gamal The driver (Bogy) was amazing. Sayed was super kind, arrived before our scheduled time, was very knowledgeable and we learn a lot. He was very attentive to us and we had a great time (he even stopped at the pharmacy because I had a headache). The driver was really nice, careful driver, and very servicial to us. He dropped us off and picked us up on time for all our places. The lunch was good with different options. Overall we had a great day on this tour. I will book it again and recommend it to anyone to do it. We learned soo much today and saw so many things that you would want to come back.
