Good times with the 2 Mohameds - We had a good time with the 2 Mohameds, ours guide's name was Mohamed and so was the drivers. Mohamed the guide expertly explained the history behind each site we visited and answered all of my follow up questions. He even offered to take pictures of us during the tour which was super helpful. Mohamed the driver was excellent and we felt completely safe driving to each site. Thank you Mohameds for making part of our time in Luxor wonderful.

An efficient tour to enjoy the West Bank of Luxor - I was nervous about my first trip to Egypt, but I was able to get a message the day before by what's up, so I was able to arrive at the day with peace of mind. The tour was completely private, with just the four of us, our guide Mohamed and the driver. Most of the tickets were arranged in advance, and it was very efficient. This tour included ruins that are not often listed in tourist guides, but they were all wonderful and I'm glad we went. Mohamed has a wealth of archaeological knowledge about the ruins, and he told us the best places to see, which made the trip many times more enjoyable. I can now read a little bit of hieroglyphics! I'd definitely like to use this service again next time. Thank you.

Fantastic tour - with a friendly and knowledgable guide! - The Valley of the Kings is the highlight of any trip to Egypt, and we would definitely recommend this tour as a great way to experience it. The guide is genuinely knowledgable on the issues - not just someone who has read a random book. Everything about the guide and arrangements was excellent (which isn't often the case in Egypt). We were picked up from our hotel, and transported around in a good, clean, safe vehicle. Your guide speaks very good english and was very polite and understanding of our special requirements. He answered all of our questions even if some were a bit basic for him! The guide really brought everything to life, range from love scandals and battle reports, to teaching us some basic ability to read hieroglyphics. He also made everything work seamlessly - Egypt isn't an easy country to visit and avoiding some of the hassle on a hot day out is very welcome! Very much recommended!

Very helpful and affordable. - Had an amazing experience with uth these guys. Very friendly, helping and helpful and affordable. He actually took us to more places than we had initially decided. Even though the light and sound show at the temple was not in the initial itinerary, he promptly arranged the tickets and helped us reach there in his vehicle. Thanks Amir.
