This company was recommended to arrange various trips for us while we were in Egypt. I recommend you use them as well. Mo (owner) has great people. He provided a private minibus (the cleanest vehicle we saw in Egypt), a good, reliable, prompt and cheerful driver and experienced, knowledgeable guides for the different sights. He also arranged a brilliant hotel with views of the pyramids from the room windows (beat that!) and roof terrace. He arranged for me to buy a cartouche as a gift and I was able to watch it being made. In short, Mo is exactly who you need to have great memories of your Egyptian holidays. Thanks a lot Mo.

I had an amazing experience in Cairo and Giza and Alexandria. The trip was spread over full days and was a completely personalized trip, all arranged and tailor made by the Egyptian Travel Guru as I can call him now, Mohamed. He assigned one of the best guide experiences I have had so far, in the form of George Onsy. George is an encyclopedia on Egyptian History. He is truly an expert Egyptologist. He was with us everywhere from Giza pyrapda to the Sphinx to Sakkara to Memphis and a full day in Alexandria. Connect with Mohamed at Luxor Egypt Tours and get a fantastic tour plan in hand for an unforgettable Time in Egyot.

Today we visited the pyramids of Giza and it was absolutely great. We had a Private Transfair with AC and our driver was super considerate. He did everything for us and took everything into consideration even if we had to get up early what absolutely worth. The museum was great.
This was an exceptional tour with an excellent guide. We had a wonderful time exploring these sights with our guide Sam who was very approachable, available for questions and had a wealth of knowledge. Additionally, he went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Our driver Mohammed was also fantastic—courteous and professional. I highly recommend this tour as it is very well organized and enjoyable.
It was fantastic with a fabulous crew. Highly recommended!!! We liked the trip and the friendly crew so much!!!🤗🤗🤗
