Reviews
Our driver Ahmed was super nice and he brought us some fresh drinks for the trip. Thank to the two guides (Fatma and Amani) for showing us the Edfu Temple and the Kom Ombo temple in so much detail. The two guides know English very well and they are very kind. We really appreciate their time!!
Asma was an excellent guide on our private tour from Aswan to Luxor (including Kom Ombo and Edfu). She is knowledgeable, kind, and very attentive to details. What I appreciated most was that she understood how I use ChatGPT for language support and explained things in a way I could save, reread, and learn from later. Thanks to her clear explanations and comfortable pace, I was able to deepen my understanding even after the tour. Highly recommended!
Our driver Omar was a professional and safe driver and the car was very clean. We had excellent tour guides at each of the two temples. Amani and Fatima were very knowledgeable and described everything clearly. The temples were outstanding.
We made this journey on 16 March. Driver Mohammed was excellent. It is not an easy drive but highly interesting seeing day to day Egypt (not seen from a cruise). He drove safely and with care. We recommend seeing the two temples. Very interesting. This also breaks the drive. The temple guides are included and met us near the sites. Both the guides and temples were excellent.
A good way to travel from Aswan to Luxor and seeing a few sites along the way. Our driver was pleasant and our two guides were very informative but did tended to speak very quickly. So much information and names to remember and it adds so much more to the trip understanding what we were actually looking at rather than just seeing cravings on the wall.
Smooth operation from start (Aswan) to finish (Luxor). Driver Mohamed was punctual, a speedy but safe driver and introduced us to our guide at each site. We particularly appreciated Fatma and Amany who are the best guides we’ve had so far in Egypt: knowledgeable, clear and explaining the meaning behind the objects. Would totally recommend this way of travelling between Aswan/ Luxor as you break the journey with amazing sites and also get interesting views of Egyptian life on the way.
The driver didn't speak any English, but that was totally fine. He was very polite, great driver, and got us snacks and water. The toue guides were well informed and spoke good enough English for us to understand them. Amany specifically spoke good English and was very nice, didn't try to hurry us or pressure us to leave. She gave us space too so we could explore on our own. Every experience Ive had on Viator has been amazing and I will definitely continue using this service in the future, while also recommending it to my friends, family or anyone who asks.
As the road between Aswan and Luxor is bumpy, the company provided us a big mini van in order to have comfortable trip without any extra charge. It is a very good experience to see the temples, cities, villages, and Nile river during the trip. It also saves money and time for the journey between these two iconic cities. The driver was polite and on time. The company contacted us several times before our trip to give all information related to this trip.
Eyes of Egipt provide very honest, professional and pleasant service. Exelent knowledge of local nuances,
feel really safe during the trip, totally isolated from the mess outside. Driver and car are very nice. The communication and customer service is top notch. Amany is super nice too. The downside is that price is expensive. Also the route to Luxor might take a better route. The city road is a bit too rough. Not their fault though.
Nice, smooth journey, driver was on time, good safe driving, pleasant demeanor, driver made a stop for us that wasn't on the schedule which was very helpful. Due to time constraints we didn't visit the temples and driver was happy to go directly from Aswan to Luxor. No complaints and would recommend this company
Professional and friendly driver Safe on the way he drives Great service Car was clean Great company to work with I would use it again
The driver was great. Very difficult drive and he did wonderful. Both visits were very worthwhile. We liked both sites.
It was amazing. The tour guides, Amany and Fatma, were very good at teaching us about Edfu and Kom Ombo. Additionally, the car was comfortable, where the tour operator, Ahmed, chartered a nice van for all of us.
We booked a private transfer from Aswan to Luxor with stops at Kom Ombo and Edfu, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. Our driver was punctual, professional, and made the long journey feel smooth and safe. The vehicle was clean, air-conditioned, and very comfortable, with cold bottled water provided throughout the day. What really made the trip unforgettable were the guides. At each temple, we were met by knowledgeable, passionate Egyptologists who brought the ancient sites to life. At Kom Ombo, our guide explained the unique dual dedication to Sobek and Horus, highlighting fascinating carvings, including ancient surgical tools. At Edfu, the temple of Horus, the guide walked us through one of Egypt’s best-preserved temples with amazing insight and storytelling. The timing was perfect—we arrived before the big tour groups, allowing us to explore both temples in peace. It felt more like a curated historical journey than just a transfer. By the time we reached Luxor, we were not only comfortable and relaxed, but deeply enriched by everything we’d seen and learned. This service far exceeded expectations. If you’re traveling between Aswan and Luxor, don’t miss the chance to do it this way.
It was a smooth journey from Aswan to Luxor, though we had a bit confused about the pickup point initially due to the hotel having different ports. Ahmed is a friendly and careful driver. He sent us to the hotel in Luxor safely. We enjoyed the stopover at Kom Ombo and Edfu Temples. The whole trip spends about 8 hours, including visiting the temples. If you consider such a way of transferring to Luxor, I would recommend this agency. It helps us to save a lot of time.
Ahmed G. was a wonderful driver. He was prompt, polite and courteous. The car was clean and comfortable and he did a wonderful job. I would recommend him for transportation for anyone traveling from Aswan to Luxor.
It is a long bumpy ride on the country roads and has much poverty. If willing to take the day, the temples are worth the trip.
Great experience with our driver Zeka. He was on time, bought sugar cane juice and ice cream for us and put our music in the car. His car was very nice and clean. We recommend him 100%.
We were picked up on time and communication was flawless.Our driver Mustafa was good even though he didn’t speak English.He waited patiently while we toured the temples. Highly recommend.Thanks
On time and a good driver. He knows his way around and is is helpful with any questions. Always ask the price before ordering any drinks or food so you don't get suprised.
Good and easy drive, to the point and on time. We arrived early at the temples and enjoyed the quite not crowded places. Best alternative to a steamboat.
We were extremely pleased with our experience, we had a driver and guide Fatma, she was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and helpful, it was just a job for her, she genuinely enjoyed imparting her knowledge. I would strongly recommend Eyes of Egypt and staff.
Great private transfer Aswan to Luxor (Edfu & Kom Ombo). Comfortable car, excellent driver, flexible itinerary. Highly recommend!
Driver was on time and good, but it was a extremely long day over 8 hours in all. Temples were worth seeing but Edfu especially was sooo overcrowded. In hindsight would miss the temples and just get driven the quick route straight to Luxor, driver reckoned 2 hours on the desert road!
The service they delivered was as promised. Nice and new car (with seatbelts for all seats) Very good driver. We got to visit Kom Ombo and had a very good guide there. The visit at Edfu was also good.
On time, well organised and efficient. A great way to travel between Aswan and Luxor, if not cruising. Took in Kom Ombo and Edfu. Both well worth seeing. Individual guides at both. All tickets taken care of. Journey is interesting and takes roads alongside the Nile, as opposed to the main highway, if you go straight from Aswan to Luxor.
Our driver reached on time (6:00 AM) They had arranged the guides well in advance at Kom Ombol (Deena) and Edfu Temple (Manal). We were even given complimentary snacks and juices. This trip that could have gone boring was made bright by them. And we reached our villa in Luxor by exact 3:30 pm
Driver was good. But one tour guide didn’t do much. Other tour guide was awful. Tried to rush us through site. And couldn’t understand her English.
We hired the company to drive us from Aswan to Luxor with 3 stops in kom ombo, edfu, and esna. Ahmed, the agent, is very friendly and professional. We asked them the morning of the departure date to leave Aswan one hour late and they found a way to accommodate us. mustafa, the driver, is so nice and caring. His car is new . Oh last but not least, their price is also competitive so I would recommend this tour for sure.
Sultan, my driver make my trip from Aswan to Luxor smooth as silk. We stopped at Kom Ombo and Edfu temple for taking picture. He’s really nice and patience.
It was a great experience with our driver who was very friendly and brought us to the two amazing temples. There were two great tourguides waiting for us and told us everything in a great way. I would really recommend it as the two temples were nearly empty and we really got some time to look around.
Amir was very professional, friendly and helpful. The two guides provided, Dina at Kom Ombo and Marma at Edfu were also excellent and really knew their subject well.
Good trip. Comfortable, clean and new car. Smooth ride. Good driver Mina, very engaging, friendly and helpful. Good visits to temples of Edfu and Kom Ombo along the way. The guides are good at explaining ad well as friendly
Edfu temple is excellent and worth the car trip from Luxor. The drive was relatively safe and comfortable, but the car was a little too old and the seat belt didn't work.
All was amazing great day and the guide was very kind. Our flight has a delay but they waited for us, we recommend the tour!
The ride from Aswan to Luxor is pretty long but it definitely helps break the trip up with stops at both Temples. Sultan picked us up on time and was also fun to talk with. I asked him all kinds of questions about Egypt and he was open to answering all of them. Thanks Sultan for being a great driver and helping pass the time with interesting conversation.
Soultan is a great driver. Everything perfect as mentioned in the description. We passed by both Edfu and Kom Ombo temples.
I have to say the trip from Aswan to Luxor with Sultan was a wonderful experience. I am really glad we choose to use Eyes of Egypt instead of taking a train directly to Luxor as we were able to visit two temples and more importantly make a new friend “ la, shukran “ along the way. Thank you for everything! You are highly recommended!
It was a long road trip going through many villages which took more than six hours but the experience was amazing. The guide and drivers were very good, took care of all my family and made the trip very smooth. We spent all the time we wanted at the temples and they accompanied us everywhere. The company manager of Eyes of Egypt was also very supportive and made sure everything was as good as possible. I strongly recommend it!
Great car, very friendly and helpful driver, good driving, driver was flexible, did not push any additional services onto us, highly recommend if you are just looking to have a feel of the attractions like us and not to dive deep into the history, sufficient time given for activities (if you are not interested in diving deep into the history)
Perfect transfer and visit to the temples from Aswan to Luxor. Our driver, Sultan was not only insightful and knowledgeable about Egypt, he took the time to explain life and culture in Egypt. He was able to not only drive us from point A to B but really immerse us in the culture and answer all of our questions about Egypt. If you are looking for transfer, book one with Eyes for Egypt and ask for Sultan! Thanks Sultan for a wonderful trip!
Amazing!!!!! So thoughtful and kind. I would definitely recommend to anyone traveling between Aswan and Luxor. Car was very nice and clean. He went above and beyond. 10/10!!!! He even did something special because it was my birthday. Thanks again
Wonderful service. We ordered just one day before the departure date. The payment and pickup went smooth and on the way stops can be negotiable with the driver. Stable driving skills even with bumpy roads which took up 80% of the trip.
We couldn’t dream of a better experience to travel between Aswan & Luxor and stop by in the wonderful temples on the way. Sultan was an EXCELLENT driver, almost a guide even, as he shared with us all the knowledge he hold about Ancient Egypt and the Nile Valley. His company was much appreciated and he made everything smooth and easy, with a VERY comfortable car, fresh water bottles, he let us take all the time we needed in each temple and took us to a nice local place to grab some food on the road. We couldn’t thank him enough!
Great experience. The driver came on time and was very professional during the whole trip. The tour operator keep me well informed before departure and keep in touch with me during the trip, which made me feel more comfortable and secured.
The driver was amazing! He not only drives very safely and patiently waits for us but also shares many stories about Egyptian culture during the journey. Highly recommend!
Complete and prepared guide. Very clear and attentive to our requests. Also very discreet during the trip. Quiet, safe and cautious driver
Punctual driver, contacted us on whatsapp the night before. very beautiful temples, worth visiting during the transfer.
