We had a lovely afternoon visiting Luxor and Karnak Temples. Our driver was on time and picked us up right from our cruise ship. Our guide Mohammed was lovely, well turned-out and very patient with us as we took a million photos! His knowledge was excellent, and he was very sweet to ensure we weren’t overcharged by local vendors. We are three ladies travelling together and we felt safe and well looked-after throughout. Highly recommended!
They seriously saved our visit to the karnak! We had a last minute cancellation from our other tour guide and when i reached out to them they arranged a tour guide in less than an hour and he was on time and was a great tour guide! Mr.Hassaan was really thorough and super friendly, he was so helpful and the tour was so smooth and he was able to keep the tour very interesting yet efficient and not too long or boring. He was open to all our questions and even gave us general tips for our trip. I highly recommend them and i will definitely contact them again 😊
Thank you so much. You're welcome again at anytime 😇
Our tour guide Mohamed in Nail cruise in Egypt was absolutely excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable, and the explanations of Egyptian history and culture were clear, engaging, and easy to understand. Each site felt much more meaningful thanks to the detailed background provided. The guide was also very attentive to our pace and comfort, always making sure we were doing well throughout the tour. The level of care and professionalism made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend this guide to anyone visiting Egypt for the first time. Thank you for a truly wonderful experience.
Thank you so much for your detailed review. It was reply pleasure to meet you. And hope to see you again one day.
This was the second tour Mohammad covered for us, this time to Karnak and Luxor Temple, again stepping in for the same guide due to a personal emergency. By this point it was clear how organized and adaptable he is. One of the best decisions of the day was doing the sites in reverse order. Mohammad suggested this specifically to avoid the sunset crowds, and it made a huge difference. Experiencing the temples without heavy congestion completely changed the feel of the visit, especially if you care about atmosphere and historical context rather than just photos. The pacing worked very well for a private tour. Explanations were clear and focused, with plenty of space to walk, observe, and explore on our own. We’re physically active travelers and appreciated being able to move at a natural pace without being rushed or over-managed. As with the first tour, everything ran smoothly from a logistics standpoint: on time, well organized, and comfortable. Even though Mohammad was covering on short notice, both days felt planned and intentional rather than improvised. If you’re interested in the history itself and want a guide who adapts to your level of interest instead of delivering a canned performance, Mohammad is a solid choice.
Thank you brother for your detail review. It was nice to meet you.
This was our first time in Egypt so of course we did as many tours as possible. We are happy to say that our guide Mohamed helped make this tour a bit more enjoyable and interesting. He answers all our questions and was easy to understand when speaking. I recommend him when doing any of the tours.
Mohammed was a wonderful, understanding, and flexible guide. My group of friends are very boisterous, opinionated and full of requests. He guided us through the temples sharing his vast knowledge and was able to accommodate our requests and time tables.
Mohamed was friendly knowledgeable and enjoyable to be with. He had stories to explain the temples we visited that made the experience feel special.
Mohamed was the best driver and tour guide, he is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. It was a trip that I will never forget. I’m so grateful that we had the time together and I know we will remain friends for a lifetime! Thank you again!
Very professional Everytime on time Great knowleage about history and facts about the old Egypt. Always attentive with us
