Ramses is an excellent driver, guide and companion. His English is very good and he cares so much you have a good time. Very organised and always early. Helped manage the day and thinks of everything I needed in advance. Very safe driver and he know’s all the local information. Highly recommend this trip with Ramses.

During my life I've traveled across multiple continents and had at least a dozen guide. Today our guide was Michael. Hands down the BEST guide I ever had. Michael has PhD in ancient egyptian so he's very knowledgeable. He was also very well-spoken, intelligent, and kind, and you could clearly see that guiding is his real passion. He put real effort into engaging with us, helped us take photos, took us "backstage" on some of the locations and even taught us some hieroglyphs along the way. His enthusiasm and knowledge made all the difference and turned a simple trip into a meaningful experience. To me it seemed Michael went out of his way but for him it must've been just another day at the office. Thanks and hopefully we meet again someday.

Great half-day tour of Dandla! The round trip experience booked is excellent. The car is fairly new, clean inside and air-conditioned. The driver was attentive and enthusiastic, driving very steadily, taking care of us along the way, making the otherwise boring drive extra comfortable. Go to the temple and choose this one that's really hassle-free, safe and reliable!

Very nice time and great memories collected together as a family!! The ride was very pleasant, car was very clean and the driver (with Omar) was also totally accommodating. We had to adjust the time due to another tour and it was no problem and Omar was waiting for us. After that we were safely taken there and had enough time to see through. The temples is Mega beautiful!! And not as crowded as in Karnak. Also, that it was inside... you're not so exposed to the sun. On the way home we wanted to buy water and bread to strengthen and he had invited us without him having to and bought more than what we wanted! Thank you very much PS: Thanks again for driving back as we left a cap in the car 💕

Michael was brilliant. He made the trip special. He is very knowledgeable. He is also an Egyptologist. If you want a ride of your life please ask for Michael. We also made a mistake with the booking but Michael sorted it within half an hour by moving a booking a day earlier and arranging the driver.

Highly recommend this one. My ride with my driver George was great. Comfortable and seamless. The desert road was magical. Then, when you get to Hathor, it gets really interesting. Well preserved ceiling frescos, inner corridors that go up and down, secret chambers. The temple space is truly an experience. Take your time there, which is what I was able to do. Remember to buy the extra tickes for the crypt and the rooftop for the complete run of the place. Thanks guys, for the tour.
