we're picked up 1 hour later than the normal pick-up time. That's resulted in loosing the sunlight in the temple ( which was Luxor Temple). The guide was so polite. she was not into the details of the temple. Rather she gave brief info and leave us in the temples. Overall, it was not bad, slightly over the average service.
Company confirmed booking right away and responded quickly anytime I messaged them via WhatsApp. Pickup right on time. Guide was very knowledgable and provided a lot of detail but had a somewhat mechanical delivery and wanted to go through her presentation at her quick pace even when we asked her to slow down to take some Pictures. Both temples are excellent. Would suggest starting in late afternoon. to see Karnak temple first in the daylight and then go to Luxor around dusk to see it in daylight and then at night since it is open till 8. Must see Luxor at nifht. Allow about 2 hours for each.
It's an experience like no other. We had the most informative afternoon with a guide who is well spoken and exceptionally friendly and accommodating.
Angie, was knowledgeable, patient and friendly. We asked and she even shared some great local recs for local food which were a hit. Go early! Locations get pretty crowded in afternoon/evening.
There is no guide. Only private car and a driver. Too expensive for that.. Do not recommend this tour.
Hany was brillant from start to finish! He was a funny man and we couldn't have asked for a better tour guide. He knew his stuff 😀 Highly recommend!
