Tour guide Mina
We had an absolutely fantastic experience visiting the Luxor temples with our tour guide Mina. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, friendly and incredibly passionate about Egypt’s history and culture. Mina was also very kind, patient, and attentive throughout the tour, always making sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves. His enthusiasm and expertise truly made this one of the highlights of our trip to Luxor. We highly recommend Mina to anyone visiting Luxor and looking for an exceptional tour guide experience. Thank you, Mina, for such a wonderful day!
Guide and communication were great.

MAHMOUD HAGGAG
Mohammad has 3 masters degrees under his belt! He is full of knowledge and able to teach you on many subjects. He will ask your preferences like focusing on history or mythology or culture...you pick, he will craft the tour to your interests. The tour was worth way more than his modest price. Definitely chose this companybtondeliver. They picked us up from a remote west bank boutique hotel (Jewel Howard Carter, also amazing) and delivered more than promised. Enjoy an intro to Luxor from someone born and educated in the mysteries of Egypt!
Amazing and joyful experience
It was an amazing experience! Our tour guide Manual was very nice and showed us and explained a lot of things. Highly recommended tour to anyone looking for a great experience in Luxor!
Full and engaging tour of key historic sites
I took the tour (admission fees included at the time of booking) with the guide Amr through Karnak and Luxor Temples. He is very well-informed and engaging. The guide and driver are patient and accommodating. The temples are astounding to visit, and you must visit them if you are in Luxor. The temple is not overcrowded, but be aware that it was hot even in May so bring a hat and sun protection.
