We had a West Bank tour of Luxor with Mohammed and he was great. He arrived at our Nile cruise on-time and the car was new and clean. Our cruise was quite a bit outside Luxor but that wasn’t an issue for him. He took us to the temples and tombs explaining the history of each site and giving us some great insights. Also took some great photos for us. Only downside for us was a visit to a ‘gift shop’ on-route who tried to charge us a laughable amount for a vase (£400!) but they provided some drinks thanks to our guide so wasn’t a big issue. I’d definitely recommend Mohammed for any tours in Luxor. Thank you.
Mohamed was knowledgeable, courteous, and easy to spend the day with. We enjoyed our tour and learned a great deal. The only downside was a stop at a local shop that used high-pressure sales tactics and misleading claims, but otherwise we had a very positive experience and would recommend him.
My husband & I had the best day with Mohamed as our guide. We visited the Valley of the Kings, Queen Hatshepsut Temple, Colossi of Memnon, Karnak Temple as well as a lovely lunch & boat trip of the Nile. Mohamed was very knowledgeable & gave us a lot of information about all of the sites we visited as well as answering any questions we had. He was very personable and gave the right mix of information but also free time to explore the different places by ourselves (armed with his insightful information). We would highly recommend Mohamed & when we come back to Egypt we will definitely book another tour with him.
Great overall. We were contacted in advance by whatsapp and everything was seamless. Would recommend again
Great tour and reliable driver and pickup
Mohamed took very good care of us. He is a registered tour guide and very flexible. We did the itinerary shown in his Viator add for one morning. He also took us to fair trade alabaster and cotton artisans. After that, we contracted with him for another morning of seeing additional sites in the West Bank, and he helped set up transportation for us to Luxor Temple and the train station.
Mohammed was our guide for 4 days and was excellent. Informative, interesting and could answer our questions. We highly recommend this tour.
We had a number of different guides in Egypt and Mohammed was our favorite. We had him for 4 days and he took us to Karnak and Luxor temples one day, the Valley of the Kings the second, to Abydos and Dendara one, and finally more sites on the West Bank the last day. He was very friendly and had a good mix of information mixed with time for us to explore on our own. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable, even to the extent of buying us our sodas so we could get the price the locals get, and warned off overly aggressive hawkers. We felt very well-cared for!
My husband and I only had about 24 hours in Luxor and wanted to maximize our experience. Mohamed helped us hit all the main attractions. He provided detailed explanations during his tour, answered all of our questions, and also allowed us plenty of time to roam around on our own. He was happy to tailor our experience to what are needs were including adding additional stops and taking us to some hidden local gems for one of a kind souvenirs.
Thank you so much. It was really nice to meet you and your husband. Wish you all the best dear
Mohamed was a great guide for our two-day visit to Luxor. He is very knowledgeable of history and gave us detailed explanations to all the sites. What we also really liked about him is that he timed the tours to include 30min free roaming at every stop, so we could have time to appreciate the temples and tombs by ourselves and take pictures. He was very kind and polite and accommodated all our needs! Highly recommended.
Thank you so much for your kind words. It was really pleasure to meet you.
