Custom day tour the East Bank in Luxor

Salwa was our tour guide for the day and we were very happy with how knowledgeable she is, she also prioritized the most important key points of our visit since we were short in time. She explained everything and answered all our questions into detail. She also has a great and kind energy, our driver was very kind as well. Overall I would recommend this experience to whoever is interested in knowing more about this magnificent place.

The temples are impressive and amazing. Salwa is very knowledgeable about everything. We even added a boat ride at the end of the trip.

The positive: Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, he explained a lot to us and gave us tips for great photos on both temples! The negative: we booked a tour in German to not have to interpret from English to German to our son, however I don’t think that our guide’s knowledge of German was at the right level for this type of service. I’m confident he would probably do a much better job in English or Arabic, so I would encourage him to keep learning the language if he’s keen on giving tours in German.

Very enjoyable and interesting tour with our tour guide Salwa. Salwa told us about all aspects of our tour, friendly and professional.

The trip was very nice. The guide Salwa was very explanative about the details of the history.

Very nice experience! Selwe was very pleasant.

We had a wonderful day exploring the East Bank. Our tour guide Salwa was extremely knowledgeable and informative. We were picked up on time, she guided us through the Karnak and Luxor Temples. She explained the history and meaning of several drawings/ writings in through detail, took our photos and gave us time to take photos as we went along and also in the end. She was easy to chat to, really friendly and made our tour very enjoyable.

Mahmoud oraby was our guide on this amazing tour. His knowledge of Egyptian history is extensive. He brought the ruins to life with his explanations. We throughly enjoyed ourselves. I highly recommend Mahmoud as a guide. Our driver Abdo expertly maneuvered the crowds, allowing us to picked up and dropped off right at the sites. A wonderful tour!

Feedback. 1st day the person on the phone lied to us that pyramids open at 8 am. We had to insist on 6 am pick up. Were there at 7 am and had a wonderful visit. But it would have been bad if we had listened to the person on the WhatsApp line. The sidetrip to perfume “factory” and spice shop was a waste of time. 2nd tour to philae... The airplane was late. So we were late. The guide complained about having to wait for us. He made us feel guilty for things not in our control. He was very bossy and controlling. He also advised us to start a sunset tour at 5 or 530 when we knew the sun went down at 5. So again we had to insist on being at the felucca at 430. And the felucca was very nice, but very short duration. The trip to Kom ombo was fine, except that the guide took on an extra 4 people. He said a friend was Ill or unable to do the other people's tour so he included them on ours. It was not a problem, but is was not technically a private tour. The trip to Kom ombo and edfu was excellent. Except that we did not have tickets as the guide at Kom ombo did not meet us until we were already in the temple. But he gave us money for the tickets instead which was fine. And he was very nice and let us stop to pick up a felafel and coffee. We asked to stop at Esna on the way. Was very difficult to get them to agree. Charged additional cost, which was fine but insisted on immediate payment. And then said the cost was deferred via the text number. Did not hear from them again and they sent a guide the next day to get the money. Last trip we did to west bank luxor. Again told us pick up is at 7, but we insisted at 6. Pickup was late. Crowds already starting to form at temples. Asked about another extra temple and was advised to go to it, again for additional $20. The temple was not good so was a waste of time and money. Overall, this company seems to be very expensive. You do NOT need to take any options with food... its actually just 150 pounds each for the meal, and they charge much more than this. Also, most of the places do not need a guide, but if you want one, you could get at the gate. I would not do this company again. Spent a lot of money for 5 tours with you and got very bad service.
