Traveler reviews
Very good tour
THIS TOUR IS VERY GOOD, because the guide explains many history of Luxor clearly. So I would recommend this tour to many people
Great guide for Edfu and Kom Ombo temples
Hassan was an amazing guide for our tour of Edfu and Kom Ombo temples! He is very knowledgeable about Egyptology and is very enthusiastic about sharing information that makes the experience more enjoyable. I highly recommend a tour with Hassan for anyone interested!
Great visits
We had the best time with our guide Marcos. He was very professional and knowledgeable, but most of all very kind. We never felt exploited like we have with many other guides (a problem we are experiencing often here in Egypt). We really appreciated this, the information and sightseeing, nothing more. The sites themselves were incredible and worth a visit!
Kom Ombo and Edfu
Majed Hassan was a very good guide with complete explanation about the temples. The tour covered both Edfu and Kom Ombo and gave also free time at the end to take pictures.
