SIMPLY AMAZING!!! - I literally just completed my day on this excursion and can truly say my experience was nothing short of breathtaking! My tour guide was Hatem (Tommy). I am not embellishing at all when I say that Hatem is the EPITOME of all tour guides! He is truly knowledgeable (over 20yrs of experience), amenable, well respected around the city and the sites, and has an overall great personality. He is excited about his job and truly brings the sites to life. Hatem is also very honest and can help you navigate the city of Luxor and its people. Hatem is also very patient, respectful, and speaks great English. This was my first time in Egypt and I also was alone. I had an overall great time while in Egypt. I felt safe at all times and my only negative comment is that Hatem could not be with me throughout the entire time. Yes, he is THAT good! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you participate in this tour. Trust me, you WILL NOT be disappointed.
