“Sadly we were not impressed by the guide. I feel bad leaving a negative review as she was a nice person, but she offered very limited information, no stories or overview of the history to bring it to life, and was not able to answer even basic questions. In fact we tried to bring up facts we had read prior to encourage her to bring forward more information. She just kept on telling us what dynasty the pharoahs were in, and pointing out things we could see for ourselves i.e that there were animals on the walls - but no information other than that. We hired a different guide the…”

“I had Ahmed as a tour guide honestly couldn’t have asked for a better one. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of the temples and tombs, but also explained everything in a clear and engaging way. I really appreciated his kindness, patience, and ability to answer all of our questions. He also knew the best times and spots to avoid the crowds, which made the tour so much more enjoyable. Luxor is incredible on its own, but having such a professional and friendly guide truly brought the history to life. Thank you Ahmed for a lovely trip”

Review of the private Luxor to Dendera and Abydos tour, with temple highlights, guide tips, costs, travel time, lunch, and practical advice.

“Emo Tours' tour to the Temples of Dendera and Abydos is a 1-2 hour drive from Luxor, but it's a wonderful tour that I highly recommend. ✨ The difference with Karnak Temple is that both temples still have their ceilings intact, so the carvings and colors from thousands of years ago are still beautifully preserved, which is incredibly impressive and well worth the long journey. ✨ But what was most wonderful was our guide, Bahgat. ☝️ Not only did he provide easy-to-understand explanations of the ruins, based on their historical and cultural background, but he was also incredibly considerate and client-first from start to finish of the tour, which made…”

Review of Luxor’s private half-day tour to Karnak and Luxor Temples, with an Egyptologist guide, lunch, hotel pickup, and practical tips.

“This was an amazing experience! I was promptly picked up from my hotel and driven straight to Karnak Temple. From there, I was taken around both temples by Sara who is super welcoming and takes her time explaining a lot of information. I like to ask a lot of questions during a tour, and Sara was great at handling all of them! She also made sure I wasn’t falling into any tourist traps or overpaying for things like tips & gifts, really valuable support! Definitely recommend the tour & guide!”
