I had the most amazing morning with Walid and Sayed. They picked me up promptly from my boat and we visited Valley of the Kings, Hatshepshut temple and the colossi of Memnon. Walid was a fantastic guide, before every site he would sit me down and explain the history and mythology behind each site, and he was so knowledgeable. He also shared with me his recent archeology work which was fascinating, and amazing to be guided by a real egyptologist. All my tickets were included and Walid handled all of that easily for me. I purchased extra tickets while I was there for Tutankhamen, Seti, and Ramse
This half-day tour of the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and the Colossi of Memnon exceeded our expectations. Abdo was an excellent guide — knowledgeable, informative, personable, and right on time for pickup. He explained the history and significance of each site in a clear and engaging way, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to explore and take photos. Transportation was also top-notch. The vehicle was new, clean, and very comfortable, which made a big difference in the Luxor heat. If you’re booking this tour on Viator,
