Great day with exceptional guide - Our guide Samar was wonderful, fantastic English, very knowledgeable and nothing too much trouble.
Car arranged for the tour was brand new Toyota and a driver that made you feel ultra safe all the time.
Normally we organise our own trips but it was fantastic to just sit back and be whisked from place to place including a fantastic lunch.
Totally recomend

A+++ - Best Tour Guide in Luxor - We were lucky enough to have been showed around Luxor with the very knowledgeable and pesonable Samar. Samar was everything you could want in a tour guide: a wealth of knowledge, full of personality and endless patience to answer all the questions thrown at her by our very inquisitive 12 year old.
We did two tours with Samar which covered the Luxor and Karnak Temples, the Valleys of the Kings/Nobles, and some mortuary Temple out there. Through it all, Samar did an amazing job formatting her tours to be both entertaining and informative.
Being in the middle of a heat wave during the brutal summer in Egypt did nothing to dampen her spirit and we did not feel like she was rushing anything to get back to the air conditioning.
If you are at all looking to hire a tour guide in Luxor, I would look no further. Samar surpassed all our expectations and I am sure she will yours as well.

Great tour! - Samar is a great tour guide. She knows Luxor inside out and is well versed in Egyptian history and antiquities which means I learned a lot. She also speaks English very well and was happy to customize the tour based on my interests. Note my tour was several years ago and I recall it was a highlight of my trip!

Best tour I had in Egypt | 我在埃及遇過最棒的導遊行 - I book Samar's tour from a flyer in my hotel, turns out she is absolutely fantastic! We visit valley of the Kings, Karnak and the Temple of Hatshepsut during the day. She is kind, thoughtful and speaks perfect English (most likely the best during my entire stay in Egypt). She carried a historical encyclopedia to help explained places we visit. She will tell you the dos and don'ts in Egypt, for example, never take a picture in tombs inside the valley of the kings (which turned out to be a great advice by the way). She also share with me the beauty of Islam culture during the tour, i.g. the holy month, etc. It was a very pleasant trip.
By the end of the trip Samar help me find a currency exchange, and drop me off at a very nice place for dinner. I will definitely hire her end to end if I ever have a chance to visit Egypt again.
Samar 是我在飯店隨手找了張傳到找到的導遊，她英文是我在埃及遇過講最好的（我在開羅另外兩個導遊講話都非常難聽懂），而且又很熱心。我們去了國王谷、卡奈克神廟還有哈斯普蘇女王大殿。在國王谷她特別提醒我進去金字塔不要拍照不要拍照 （金字塔裡面很小，所以導遊都是都是在外面等）。進金字塔以後，裡面的警衛有時會假裝走開，給你機會拍照以後再回來逮你跟你要錢，特別是落單旅客（像我一度就只有我自己在裡面就有遇到）。因為Samar有特別講所以我沒拍，警衛還跟我拿手機去檢查，反正真的沒拍我就給警衛看。出國王谷以後Samar聽說警衛檢查我手機，很生氣要回去罵警衛，不過因為要走20分鐘回去所以我就跟他說沒關係算了。Samar也會順便介紹一些伊斯蘭習俗（像齋戒月），非常新奇。旅途最後他幫我繞路找了兌幣所，還載我去一家很棒的餐廳。
總的來說，Samar 的行程非常超值，一切都安排的很棒。Luxor 也非常美，很值得一遊。如果再訪埃及我會認真考慮全程請Samar帶團。

Knowledgable, extremely kind and fun tour guides! - Samar guided our family around the Temple of Hatshepsut, the Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Nobles, and several more sights as well as across the Nile and to a lovely restaurant for lunch. Samar knew so much and told us lots of interesting facts and stories, and was able to answer all our questions. She's just a lovely person and is both fun but also calm and lets you explore the sights at your own pace. She's the first person I'll call when I get back to Luxor!

One day covering the main sites in Luxor - Samar was my solo guide during my visit to Luxor. She was fantastic: knowledgeable, friendly and full of energy. Together we visited the Valley of the Kings, Karnak and the Temple of Hatshepsut. She followed the rules of each historical site making for very ethical and sustainable tourism. We have even kept in touch over the years. I recommend this service 100%
