“Fun & Fascinating”
We had a great visit to Luxor and Karnak Temples with Mohamed! We have been to Egypt before, so we had some experience with the sites. We learned new things with Mohammed! Mohamed has worked as an archeologist which gives him insights many guides lack. His descriptions of the history and significance of the Temples was fascinating and engaging. Very VERY impressive! Thank you, Mohamed!

“Perfect Day in Luxor!”
We had an incredible experience with Ali S! We only had one day in Luxor, and he planned the perfect customized itinerary so we could do and see everything we wanted. He was very knowledgeable and taught us so much about Ancient Egypt, plus he was very friendly, helpful, and lots of fun! We loved having a private guide and driver so we could move at our own pace, ask lots of questions, and design the itinerary that was right for us. We had the best time in Luxor, all thanks to Ali! If you’re visiting Egypt, We can’t recommend him enough.

Safe travels!
