We were completely enchanted while visiting Luxor. Our guide Shima was very knowledgeable and great company. She brought Luxor alive for us and we enjoyed every minute of it!

We’ve just done a one day trip to Luxor, Valley of the Kings and temples. We booked through Love Egypt tours; Mr Hass was brilliant at the organisation. We requested Abdull as our guide after reading other reviews and we were not disappointed! His extensive knowledge and enthusiasm was infectious! Not only is Abdull a guide, he is also a Egyptologist that has dug in the Valley of the Scribes. We’ve had many private guides throughout our travels, but he is truly the best! If you’re looking to book a tour to the Valley of the Kings we would recommend Love Egypt and to ask for Abdull! When we return to Egypt we will definitely request Abdull again.Отдыхали 2 дня прекрасных дня в Луксоре.

Отдыхали 2 дня прекрасных дня в Луксоре. Бронировали двухдневный индивидуальный тур: - Западный берег: Долина царей, храм Хатшепсут и Дейр-эль-Медина - Храм Дендера Всё нам организовал Haas. Всё было очень хорошо. Вечером Haas встретил нас в аэропорту и отвез в наш отель. По дороге Haas рассказал про достопримечательности Луксора и куда можно самостоятельно сходить в городе, порекомендовал рестораны, музеи. Также Haas организовал нам индивидуальную прогулку на лодке по Нилу на закате. Было очень красиво и романтично. Всё было замечательно. Haas очень дружелюбный, пунктуальный, много знает об истории Египта и обо всех достопримечательностях, которые мы посетили. Очень аккуратный водитель, что очень важно для Египта. Haas был всегда с нами на связи. Я на 100% рекомендую заказывать тур в компании Love Egypt Tours.We had an incredible time with Abdul for our group of 6 over two days exploring the East and West Banks of Luxor.

We had an incredible time with Abdul for our group of 6 over two days exploring the East and West Banks of Luxor. Abdul was a phenomenal guide: passionate, knowledgeable, flexible/accommodating, and more. He was a great communicator (via Whatsapp) leading up to the tour, and had great advice on our questions for flexing the itinerary slightly. We came away WOWed by Abdul, having learned a lot and had a great experience. We would recommend him to all who plan to go to Luxor!Upon a punctual and welcoming arrival at the doorstep of our hotel, we were picked up by our driver in Safaga.

Upon a punctual and welcoming arrival at the doorstep of our hotel, we were picked up by our driver in Safaga. After a relatively calm ride, our tour guide, Abdul joined us and we immediately hit off together: Passionately and irresistibly delightful, Abdul did not not only explain the meaning of the five valleys to us, he was also able to lead us on a journey to explore for ourselves by talking to us in a way that we really enjoyed listening to him and we were actually able to remember most of what he said after that impressive day at the 5 stops in Luxor. One could tell that he loves his job; everyone he met by chance on that day was pleased to see him. We felt that he dealt with us in a really honest way. He also took extra responsibility into making sure that we have a nice lunch, get even an espresso before heading home and made sure we had enough water to drink at all times (we underestimated the amount of water that was neeeded for the the day, so free tipp for you guys, 2l at minimum per person). Abdul did not hesitate to make this day an unforgettable one, took us by surprise (no spoilers for you here, you have to check it out by yourself 😉) I would highly recommend the tour, everything from pickup, breaks, tour, lunch, saying good bye and ride home has exceeded our expectations by far of Luxor. I thank our driver, tour guide Abdul and boss Mr. Hass for this awesome day, it was nice to meet such nice people in Egypt. 😊I’m very pleased with my experience with Love Egypt Tours and our guide, Ahmed, in particular.

I’m very pleased with my experience with Love Egypt Tours and our guide, Ahmed, in particular. We opted for a 2 day tour of Luxor in which we visited the West Bank sites on day 1 and the east bank sites on day 2. From the moment Ahmed picked us up in our hotel lobby he was very welcoming, enthusiastic, and professional. He was extremely informative and helped us to come away with a tremendous amount of knowledge about the places we visited. Luxor was our favorite place that we visited among a number of cities in Egypt, due in large part to how enjoyable our tour was. I couldn’t have asked for more from this tour. I would highly recommend Love Egypt Tours and their guide Ahmed to anyone looking to have a guided tour of Luxor during their holiday.
