Excellent 5h visit with Jaky to the valley of the kings and the Hatschepsut temple

We had a very nice tour with our guide Jaky and driver Abdelsaboy. We visited the valley of the kings and the Hatschepsut temple. Jaky (Jakline) is egyptologist, very knowledgeable and and also gave us interesting insights not only into the old tombs and temples, but also into how people live today in Egypt, their religions, etc. We got to see overall nine tombs (including the tree you need to pay separately for). We also appreciated for once to have a female guide. The tour was worth every cent. Abdelsaboy brought us the next day to Hurghada (separate private transfer). The car was nice, clean, safe and with AC.

Operator response

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed your time in Luxor with Jakline and Abdelsaboy. It’s great that Jakline’s knowledge as an Egyptologist and her insights into both ancient history and modern Egyptian life made the experience special. We’re also glad the transfer to Hurghada was comfortable and smooth. We hope to welcome you again on another adventure in Egypt!

A unique and unforgettable experience

We booked two private tours. One with valley of kings and Hatshepsut temple on the west bank and the next day in the morning Karnak Temple in Luxor. We were very satisfied with Nasco Tours. Our tour guide, Nirmiin, did an excellent job - thank you! She's very knowledgeable and made our stay in Egypt a unique and unforgettable experience. Regarding Karnak temple, go there very early in the morning before the large tourist groups arrive. All transfers were done with a safe and well-maintained minibus.

Excellent tour of Luxor

We had an excellent experience in Luxor with NASCO tours. Communication was excellent, coordination and timing was great, and our guide was wonderful. We spent the first afternoon on the East Bank at Karnak and Luxor temples. We started early the next morning with the balloon ride, then a full tour of the West Bank. Our guide had a PhD in Archeology, and he had all of the information and stories. We would highly recommend.

Operator response

We appreciate your kind words about our communication and coordination - it means the world to our team. Hope to welcome you back to Egypt soon!

Amazing tour and BEST tour guide, Maha!!!!

Maha was the BEST tour guide, extremely knowledgeable and friendly for both of our tours of the East and West Bank in Luxor. She taught us so much about ancient Egyptian culture and tradition, and gave us ample time to roam freely and be at our own pace. We enjoyed every minute of our tour and had wonderful transportation services throughout all of our stops! Thank you so much Maha for an amazing experience in Egypt and we hope to be back soon!!

Nana is the best!

We had the best time with Nermeen(nana). We got arranged with her through our hotel in Luxor, Hilton. We spent one full day and one half day with her and wish she came with us to Cairo! She was easy going, knowledgeable and the best Egyptologist! She knew a ton about the dynastic error and took us to the worthy spots. We are so grateful we go to spend our time in Luxor with her. We felt very safe during our entire time in Egypt and appreciate how above and beyond they go to ensure tourism safety.

Ahmed was a fantastic guide!

We arranged our tours with Nasco through the Luxor Hilton. We have experienced many guides over the years, throughout the world and there is sometimes uncertainty about what you kind of experience you are going to have. Ahmed immediately put us at ease with his relaxed manner. But when it came to explaining the sites he was a great storyteller. Many thanks for making our experience a memorable one!
