Did a solo tour with Hassan. He provided great insight into each site before entering which allowed for a really in-depth experience. The lunch was also really great, a nice break between west and east Luxor. Would definitely book again, highly recommend.

Hassan was a fantastic guide and ensured that we were briefed adequately all throughout. And I did really like the lunch spot he took us to. Overall, I’d strongly recommend a tour with him!!

Overall, this was a very good tour — the guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the day enjoyable. The transport was comfortable and everything ran smoothly. Just be aware that the entry fees for the sites are not included and add up to around €50 in total, including the small transportation inside the monuments and drinks with lunch. It’s still worth it, but good to know in advance so you can budget properly. The day itself is quite long — if possible, it would be even better split into two shorter tours, since there’s a lot to see and do. Other than that, it was a great experience and a nice way to explore everything in one day with a reliable agency and guide.

We recently took the “Private Full-Day Luxor Highlights – East and West Banks” tour, and it was by far one of the best excursions we’ve ever done. From start to finish everything was outstanding. First of all, our pre-tour communications with Ragab were excellent. He responded promptly, clarified all the details and made the logistics very smooth, which gave us peace of mind from the get-go. Once the tour started, our guide Abdul absolutely stole the show. His passion for Egyptian history is incredible, and you could tell it wasn’t just rote facts: he has genuine, strong ties within the local community, which added real depth and authenticity to his storytelling. As well his recommendations for sites and optional add-ons was perfect. My two teenagers, who can sometimes zone out on tours, stayed fully engaged the entire day thanks to how dynamic and involved he made the experience. With Abdul, the sites didn’t just feel like check-boxes. At each stop he wove in compelling narrative, historical context, interesting anecdotes and local insight. He brought the ancient world alive in a way you rarely see. We’ve been on many tours over the years, and this one truly felt like a different level. In short: this isn’t just a good tour, it’s a must-do when you’re in Luxor. If you’re on the fence, book it. With Ragab’s seamless coordination and Abdul’s exceptional guiding, it was a day our whole family will remember. Highly recommended!

Our trip around Luxor was absolutely incredible. From the moment we started, our guide was so kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about Egyptian history. He went above and beyond to make sure we experienced as much as possible, fitting in extra stops and sharing fascinating details at every site. From the Valley of the Kings to Karnak and Luxor Temple, every place came to life through his stories. Despite the limited time we had, he made the day feel rich, seamless, and unforgettable. Highly recommend this experience — truly the highlight of our time in Egypt! 🇪🇬✨

My friends Chloe, Maria Victoria, and I had an absolutely incredible Private Full-Day Luxor Highlights tour covering the East and West Banks, all thanks to our brilliant guide, Hassan. His exceptional intelligence and vast knowledge turned this into the highlight of our Egypt trip! Hassan’s expertise was nothing short of extraordinary. At the majestic Temple of Karnak and Luxor Temple on the East Bank, he wove together intricate historical details about ancient rituals and pharaohs with such clarity and passion that we felt transported back in time. Crossing to the West Bank, his insights into the Valley of the Kings—especially the tombs of Tutankhamun, Ramses, and Seti—were mind-blowing, revealing architectural genius and cultural secrets we’d never have uncovered alone. At the stunning Temple of Hatshepsut and the Colossi of Memnon, Hassan’s storytelling brought the sites alive, answering our questions with remarkable depth and humor that kept us engaged from dawn till dusk. Hassan elevated the day even further by taking us to a fantastic lunch spot serving authentic Egyptian dishes—our kofta and fresh salads were delicious and perfectly timed to recharge us. He also guided us to a wonderful alabaster factory, where we explored stunning handcrafted pieces and learned about this timeless Egyptian craft—it was a fantastic, unexpected highlight that added a creative touch to our adventure. His thoughtful touches, like ensuring we stayed hydrated and comfortable in the air-conditioned transport, made everything seamless, while our skilled driver navigated effortlessly. This tour was a perfect mix of awe-inspiring history and personalized adventure, made truly special by Hassan’s brilliance and warmth. Chloe, Maria Victoria, and I can’t recommend him enough—if you’re in Luxor, book with Hassan for an experience you’ll cherish forever!

Our family had only one full day to explore Luxor, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Amani. He was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating stories and historical details about every site we visited — from the temples to the tombs. What stood out most was his honesty and genuine care in making sure we got the most out of our time. Amani went above and beyond to show us so much in one day while making us feel comfortable and unrushed. His passion for Egyptian history and culture truly brought each place to life. We’re so grateful for his kindness, his patience, and all the memories he helped us create. Thank you, Amani, for making our Luxor visit one we’ll never forget!
