Luxor West Bank Tour - Our driver Alaa took us around the Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Queens, Hatshepsut Funeral Temple and the Colossi of Mennon on the west bank of Luxor. It wasn't severe enough on time, so we could enjoy sightseeing slowly.

Solo traveller of a certain age’s review. - What a first class experience from pick up to drop off in a clean and very comfortable car with a good driver.
The tour guide, Ibrahim, is an exceptional young man, having a real passion and deep knowledge for his subject.
He explained in detail what to look for in each tomb as guides are not allowed entry to the individual tombs due to congestion.
Be aware that tomb employees will offer to take photos of inaccessible areas with the expectation of tips so take plenty of notes!
The different tombs and temple were individually spectacular and the queues moved well. It was great to have the opportunity to discuss them with someone as knowledgeable as Ibrahim who had a degree in the subject and is a registered tour guide.
I vetoed the suggested trip to an alabaster factory and was taken to a local cafe for lunch. The cafe was basic but the welcome was warm as was the variety of foodfrom a set menu which arrived promptly with a basket of the local soft pittaDrinks were not expensive.
I can thoroughly recommend this trip and as a solo traveller felt very comfortable.

Excellent - We had only hired a driver. We had Mustafa which clearly lived his city as he gave us a lot of information about Luxor. We had ample time to visit the sights and as we were on a private tour we could allocate our time as needed.

Excellent tour, great guide. - We had an absolutely fantastic tour this morning with our guide, Ibrahim. From the moment we arrived at the Valley of the Kings, everything was seamless. Ibrahim expertly guided us through the site, skilfully helping us avoid the queues while sharing fascinating insights and detailed explanations about the tombs and the incredible history behind this extraordinary place.
We then continued to the breathtaking Temple of Hatshepsut, where his knowledge truly brought the stories of ancient Egypt to life. Our morning continued at the Valley of the Queens, and finished at the Colossi of Memnon.
Ibrahim’s expertise, organisation, and passion made the tour exceptional. We genuinely had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Luxor.

Wonderful tour with very knowledgeable guide - We had a wonderful tour. The guide was very knowledgeable, answered all our questions and helped us choose which tombs to visit. We didn't pay to go into Seti I and did not feel like we missed out. He chose tombs that offered different experiences and sights and pointed out what to look out for before we went in. (No guides are allowed in the tombs for crowd control). We did opt to pay extra for Tutankhamun and Ramesses V/VI.
At no time did we feel under pressure to hurry. The description said the tour would be 5-6 hrs, but we were at least 7hrs for the whole tour.
We selected the option that included the tickets and I think this was a very good decision as he had all the tickets (except the optional extra tombs) ready to go, which was very convenient. The extra tombs we had to que up and pay for once we had decided what to visit.
The TagTour rep was also wonderful, corresponding with us on WhatsApp and answering any questions we had regarding logistics.
We also booked a second tour with them the half day Luxor and Karnak temple tour, which was as wonderful and an airport transfer, which went very smoothly.
I would 100% recommend this company.

Tag-Tours is a highly professional tour operator in Luxor. - Mostafa organised a fabulous morning for us with our guide, Saber, who is a fully qualified and very experienced Egyptologist. Saber was not just good, he was exceptional at imparting historical facts in an interesting way. His guiding started the moment we set off in the immaculately clean minibus, driven by Mohammed.
Saber recommended the best tombs to visit in the Valley of the Kings and outlined the history of the Pharaohs as well as that of the gods so we could decipher the decorations inside the tombs.
At the Temple of Hatshepsut Saber was equally knowledgeable and went into much greater historical depth and decoding of the features than with the guide on our previous visit.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mostafa at Tag-Tours and also Saber who is brilliant and very likeable.

Great option - The driver was at the exact time waiting for us in the hotel. He drove carefully and the car was very clean. A very good option in Luxor if you want to visit the temples, but want to escape the tours.
