Ahmed Kassem and Mamoud were amazing. Emo Tours was very user friendly. Definitely use this company and these guys! - The company was extremely easy to use and book the day before. Our guide, Ahmed Kassem, was absolutely amazing. Our driver, Mamoud, was also top knotch. Ahmed was incredibly knowledgeable and also made us feel very comfortable the entire time. He had a good understanding of each location and was able to answer all questions. He also spoke very good English and was a genuinely good person. Would highly recommend booking with this company, especially if you can reserve Ahmed Kassem! 10/10 would recommend.

A Full Day of Egyptian History and Breathtaking Views - Our guide - Ahmed Kassem, and driver - also Ahmed, made our experience of touring Luxor delightful! We visited all 5 locations of interest and were taught so much about Egyptian history. Ahmed Kassem encouraged us to explore the sites at our own pace, answered all the questions we had, and often advised us on how to get the best experience. In addition to the tour locations, we visited an immersive souvenir shop and a restaurant, which were both surprisingly pricey for Egypt.

Must do Luxor tour - Very well organized tour by Emo tours. The guide was good and the driver was kind too.
They were on time and whole tour to Karnak temple, Luxor temple and the lunch was amazing. My daughter slept in between so they customized and covered one spot which afterwards. The lunch served was very fresh and local.

Excellent Service and Experience - We landed in Luxor airport, and our tour guide Salwa was there to greet us. We immediately started the tour by going to the Karnak Temple, then we went to the Valley of the Kings, then to the Temple of Hatshepsut afterwards we went to Colossi of Memnon and lastly to the Luxor Temple. It was a jammed packed day, and having a driver really helped going from one place to another, especially in the heat of the day. 😉 Highly recommend planning your activities with EMO Tours!

Excellent quality of services - Our tour guide, Sam, seemed to have a thorough knowledge of the history and the monuments included in the tour, which was very helpful. Moreover, his English was excellent and he provided important tips for our convenience and safety. Finally, the trip was smooth due to the nice driver, as well. Overall, a very nice experience, strongly recommended.

Don't book ( horrible guide ) - This was worse tour we had in egypt and in 11 days we had quite a few. The problem was the guide his name is Asmeth he was not trust worthy and will explain before and send us alone to the activity. He suggested not to go inside the tutankamun tomb. He said it was a waste of time ( its not ) ! He was trying to make money of everything we would buy ! Last but not least , we were so mad at the situation that we requested to go to the hotel early and did not finish the tour! Do not recommend!
