    Robert_H, Apr 2025

    Wonderful day out
    Amy_R, Apr 2025
    Great day out at the beautiful temples Recommend going early to beat the crowds especially Luxor temple Peter our guide for the second day was wonderful, knowledgeable and helped look after our kids so we could relax and enjoy a bit. He was very knowledgable with the history. Emo tours provided a bigger car upon request which was nice.
    Breathtaking

    Shereen was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly knowledgeable about Egyptian history and wonderfully friendly. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide!

    The food with restaurant was not good at all, very expensive for the meal served. And the drinks are extra…with the price of 4 euros per water..
    Magical day with a magical guide
    Richard_M, Nov 2023
    The magnitude of Karnak temple is simply breath taking but what really made this experience memorable for us is the historical context thst our expert guide Angie, an experienced Egyptologist, gave us. She pointed out things that we would never have spotted and explained everything. Truly inspiring!
    Awesome tour

    Great experience

    Armen was a great guide. He knows a lot about ancient egypt and the Luxor temples and gave very intersting insights. All my questions were answered by him perfectly. Thanks
    Amazing guide and expert
    Justin_P, Feb 2023
    Nermina Nabil was our guide, and what a wonderful guide she was. She was kind, friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. She brought the temples and murals to life through her expertise and narration. Also, she explained many of the cartoushe and the hieroglyphics in them and on the walls. Ask her about other historical figures and events from around the time periods and dynasties.
    Very good tour to Luxor and Karnak Temples
    kevin_T, Jan 2023
    We had a good time. Our guide (Fatma) is passionate about tourism and egyptology. She took the time to explain Luxor and Karnak Temples and highlighted the unique features of each temple. The pace of the tour is comfortable and we had free time to take pictures. She brought us to a buffet lunch and the tour was completed on time. The car is new and clean, and the driver (Ayman) is friendly and drove safely.
    The best Luxor and Karnak experience

    Tour takes around 3h - if the guide is slowed down. No question was left without answers ( the guide even returned to one of the spots to correct one comment, what demonstrated professionalism).
    Luxor
    Richard_B, Sept 2022
    Great tour. Ahmed was very friendly and knew all of the history. Only downside is viator.com that requires my comment to be longer
    Great tour guide
    Tema_H, Jun 2022
    Shereen made our tour not only interesting but fun. She is very knowledgeable about Egyptian history and also a very nice person. We would definitely request her for future tours.
    Karnak temple
    TMEnamul_H, Jun 2022
    It’s an amazing place and tour with family. I will suggest my friends to make it if they have time for refreshments…
    Great half day tour
    trent_b, Mar 2022
    My guide for the half day tour was Angie from Emo Tours and she was very knowledgeable and I highly recommend her as a guide
    Brilliant Temples

    We learned so much about these two great temples and the writing system. Definitely too places to visit in Luxor! We wish our tour guide and driver wore face masks at least when we were inside.
    Templi meravigliosi,...
    Cristina_C, Apr 2025
    Templi meravigliosi, assolutamente da vedere almeno una volta nella vita. La guida parlava un italiano scadente e, pertanto, le sue spiegazioni sono state superficiali, ripetitive e non esaustive. Consiglio al tour operator di assicurarsi la conoscenza della lingua delle guide prima di proporle.
    Fantastische Tour in Luxor mit Adel
    Melin_N, Apr 2024
    Adel war ein fantastischer Reiseführer - wir sind total begeistert. Die Erfahrung war klasse, seine Deutschkenntnisse fantastisch und sehr gut zu verstehen. Er war wissend, erfahren und hat jede unserer Frage professionell beantwortet. Die Tour war wirklich gut organisiert, er war pünktlich, hat uns sehr viel Zeit gegeben, stets angeboten Fotos zu machen und die eine oder andere erfreuliche Überraschung gab es auch! Vielen Dank für die grandiose Tour!

    A pesar del calor jazmin hizo del tour muy agradable! Muy profesional y buen español. El ritmo de la visita fue un poco elevado para las exigencias del grupo (una señora mayor de 79 años) pero fuera de eso todo muy lindo
