The largest of Luxor’s temples, Karnak Temple was one of the most sacred sites in ancient Egypt. It marked the ascendancy of Thebes (present-day Luxor) as the capital of the New Kingdom, with construction beginning in the 16th century BC. Most subsequent rulers tinkered with the complex so it represents a great crash course in different pharaonic styles. The major site here is the Temple of Amon, the largest place of worship ever constructed. There the Great Hypostyle Hall, which was once roofed, dwarf’s visitors with its dozens of colossal columns reaching 25 yards (23 meters) into the sky.
Funerary temple, also known as the Djoser-Djeseru, sits at the base of limestone cliffs in Deir el-Bahri, the temple considered a memorial temple that honors Queen Hatshepsut, and one of the incomparable monuments of ancient Egypt, dedicated to Amon-Ra, the sun god. Designed by an architect named Senemut, this mortuary temple seems like resembles the classical Greek architecture of 1,000 years later. Within its precincts, you'll see sun court, chapel, and sanctuary. Temple reliefs depict the tale of the divine birth of Hatshepsut and trade expeditions to the Land of Punt "a reference to modern Somalia or the Arabian Peninsula".
This desert valley contains the ancient burial ground of many Egyptian pharaohs. Among over 60 royal tombs is the famous Tomb of Tutankhamen that was found in pristine condition.
Now we will enjoy our lunch meal on the oldest hotel in Luxor west bank, (Marsam Hotel Luxor), the food is prepared daily fresh from them organic fields vegetables which is grows on the hotel next to (Colossi of Memnon).
Standing nearly 60 feet (18 meters) above the desert plain, the two faceless statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III are often the first monuments you’ll see when visiting Luxor’s West Bank. Each of the two Colossi was cut from a single block of stone.

Very nice experience! Despite the long trip from our hotel and back, the time spent in Luxor worth the effort. The Guide Hassan made our day very special from the very first minute to the last. His Knowledge and passion for its own history and culture is exeptionial. We really enjoyed him and we strongly recommend this trip.
The tour that Mohammed organised for us was really special and gave us an great introduction to some of incredible sites I've ever been too. Our guide for Luxor, Hassan was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, and was able to craft a tour that was interesting and insightful whether you knew nothing or already knew lots about Egypt. All the guides were friendly, welcoming and relaxed, so that we saw and did lots, but also had enough time and space to connect with the others on the tour and get to know each other. Highly recommended.
Our stay in Luxor and our 2 days tours organised by Mohamed and guided by Hassan were fabulous in so many ways. This is a trip I will not forget. Watching over the temples of Luxor from a hot air balloon was a magical way to spend sunrise and greet a new day. Hassan is a very informed guide with excellent English and very happy to answer questions and to share his wealth of knowledge of ancient Egypt with us. We had so many laughs over the 2 days also! Our accommodation was very picturesque and comfortable and the food was absolutely lovely. Lunch on a Felucca on the Nile on our second day at sunset is particularly memorable for me as I was surprised with a birthday cake to mark a milestone birthday and crew and guests enjoyed local music and dancing on the boat! Until we meet again Mohamed and Hassan, thank you and take care. Noelle xx
Absolutely amazing from start to finish! Had the best time and was looked after so well. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!
I absolutely loved the tour and experiences organised by Mohammed and I was so impressed with Hassan our tour guide. I thought he was the best tour guide I’ve ever encountered. He was so passionate and interesting, engaging and relational. He was extremely knowledgable and the stories he told so interesting and I shall remember them! Our group of friends had so much fun and felt so well cared for. I couldn’t recommend it enough. It’s so worth it to have such a fantastic private guided tour of the amazing Luxor temples. We also had a wonderful lunch on a Felucca on the Nile. And one of the most beautiful experiences of my life: a hot air balloon ride at sunset over the Luxor mountain. So grateful for all this experience. Thank you Mohammed and Hassan!
Hasan and Mohamed are both very experienced and excellent guides. I highly recommend this experiance. True gems of Luxor.
I’ve been on many tours in Luxor (as least 5) as I organise trips for my yoga students and this has been by far the best tour! We were very well looked after, the food Mohamed organised was delicious, communication was exceptional and at all times I and my guests felt well taken care of. Hassan our tour guide was passionate about Egypt and history, knowledgeable and knew all the answers to the thousands of questions we had. Again 10/10 tour guide! I can’t recommend this tour provider enough. Thank you! Shukran! Teslam! We will be back!
What a day! From start to finish it was wonderful. We got picked up by our lovely driver Hassan from our hotel reception. Hassan was so courteous and made sure we stopped for a toilet break and to get a drink. We drove all the way to Luxor where we met our guide Ameen. Ameen was incredible, he explained so much to us, he went above and beyond to make sure we had all the info we needed, nothing was too much for him! I'm so glad we did this tour and would definitely recommend for others to do the same! It's a long day but really worth it. I'm so glad we did the private tour rather than a group tour. It's most definitely worth the money! Thank you Hassan and Ameen for everything, we truly appreciate it!

Wow! What an amazing trip this was. Another one ticked off our bucket list. We started early in the morning, where we were picked up in a comfortable, air conditioned car. Drinks and pillows were provided and regular stops for bathroom breaks. When we arrived in Luxor, we were greeted by our tour guide Ameen. Never have we experienced such an amazing and knowledge guide. Facts were just rolling off his tongue and he made us feel so welcome and comfortable at all times. He answered everything we asked and offered to take plenty of photos on our phone for us. He was so passionate about his work and it felt like he was just a friend with us, rather than us being told what to do. We loved the fact that he didn’t rush us through the trip and told us to take our time, as it is our trip, so we should enjoy every minute of it. Ameen was the best tour guide we’ve ever had and I would highly recommend him to everyone that wants to tour Luxor. Included in our day trip was Karnak Temple, Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut’s Temple, Colossi of Memnon and a trip for lunch to a local Egyptian restaurant which is included in the price (you just pay for your drinks, which is reasonable). We were also offered the optional Nile boat trip for an additional fee, which we were interested in, but unfortunately towards the end, we were just too tired from the intense heat. The travelling was made easy by our brilliant driver Yassen. He was very friendly, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the journey. My girlfriend was struggling with the sunlight beaming on her face, so Yassen kindly pulled over and went to the boot of the car, only to pull out a window shield which stopped light getting in and made the rest of the journey so much better for her. All round this is a fantastic trip and worth every penny. Thanks again to all involved, and to the manager Mohammad for organising it for us. 10/10 👍🏼
A very long, but very enjoyable day. The driver was lovely and our private guide, Mahmoud, was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and friendly - he tried to ensure everything went very smoothly from start to finish. He gave us guidance to avoid the many sellers in the bazaars on the way to and from the sites, and also warned us about the 'helpers' who will try and take photos for you and then demand money. Karnak was great - got there early in the mornings and given plenty of info and time to look around. The valley of the kings was really interesting but the tombs themselves were hot and stuffy, besides very steep ramps down into the bottom. After visiting Hatshepsut's temple we had a lovely meal in a restaurant by the Colossi of Memnon. I was very grateful we had Mahmoud and it was all organised for us.
We had the most beautiful introduction in Egypt, the guide and tour made everything so special because of their expertise and best shortcuts and guidance. 5 star review, 100% to recommend.
The trip was really very well managed. There was good communication throughout from Mohamed, which started before we even left home (England). This was a fantastic experience and the whole excursion was amazing, from the early pick up at our hotel by our drive a Yassen to meeting our fantastic Egyptologist Ameen who was so friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. Ameen was an exceptional guide, extremely knowledgeable not only about the history and archeology of the sites but also freely explaining and giving his views on modern life in Egypt. It made for a really wonderful day. Thanks very much. The experiences were top class and we fully recommend this excursion with an amazing tour company who went above and beyond our expectations.
Amazing trip, best guides. Friendly and fun to hang out with. I loved Luxor with it's temples and people there much better than Hurghada. Next time again!
Hagag is a very pleasant person, who is very polite, empathic, funny and know a lot of Egyptian History and his people. He knows basically every one. Besides that, he manages to show his expertise so well, turning our experience unique. I strongly recommend this tour. I would love to repeat this amazing vacation sometime.
Best tour guide in Luxor. Took care of everything and everyone. If you need anything Amen is your man in Luxor. In two days we saw the main tombs and ancient buildings. Very good times, would defenetely suggest!
Amin is the best giude in Egypt!!! Very informative and wise, funy! Hoppe come back to Luxor and do it agein.

We had an amazing trip to Luxor to all the temples, valley of the Kings/Queens, Nill trip etc. He did everything for us to have an amazing trip, to enjoy every moment , and to gain the proper history knowledge. See you soon my friend Amine.
Amin is the best guide in Luxor! Had the best experience, very informative trip. Hope to do it again!
We had trips while on holiday. Service was excellent we really enjoyed our days out. Exceptional value for money. 100% recommend
Tour with Mohama tour guide Mohamad was awesome he took a lot of pictures from me and explai every thing
Great experience with Mohamed’s organizations, who planned our Aswan to Abusimbel travel, and our guide in Giza. Initially his name was indicated for an specific visit to Luxor, but sadly we didn’t make it, but with the fast work he’s done for us organizing amazing guides and rides, we were able to enjoy our vacation to Egypt. We will definitely send his contact to our friends.
We contacted Mohamed of KEPHER EGYPT on the reccommendation of another traveller just for a tour of Luxor. After chatting on whatsapp we ended up using his services and advice for most of our 15 day trip including transfer from Alexandria to Cairo, guides and transport in Cairo, Luxor and Aswan. On every occasion Mohamed kept in touch with messages and phone calls to make sure everything was ok and to let us know our driver details. We felt very comfortable and it was never a problem to make last minute changes to our itinerary. Guides and drivers were pleasant and competent. The cars were always clean and new. When we forgot our kindle in a hotel Mohamed magically had it delivered to our next port of call. I would not hesitate to reccommend his services. Great job!
A kind soul who will show you his beloved Luxor and give you plenty of information. My experience was very positive with Mohamed. He even helped me book the cruise on the Nile.
Very kind Tourguide with a lot of knowledge and experience. He recommended the best places to see in Luxor. The transfer with him has been amazing and could not have been any better. Comfortable van with AC.
Hurgada dahar at night with my friend Hurgada dahar at night with my friend Hurgada dahar at night with my friend
A truly interesting experience in every single detail
Hassan a nice person but above all expert in Egyptian archaeology .. a day that we will remember forever...
We were constantly fascinated by the history, civilization and culture of ancient Egypt and modern Egypt. The guides have thought of everything and we have always relied on them without worries for any situation. Tour organized in detail, between tourist sites and native places. Holiday at times intense, but with the right relaxation times. Experience to repeat, to discover more and more of Egypt.
Hassan was really great. A scholar of archaeology, he knows the history of ancient Egypt perfectly and transmits this information with great enthusiasm. With him we visited the western part of Luxor but I recommend you also visit the eastern part. Give useful tips for any activity in the area as well as places to eat or buy souvenirs. He also taught us some useful Arabic words during the visit. Highly recommended!
Beautiful tour to luxor from hurgada, beautiful places to visit at least once in a lifetime. Hassan our guide was perfect, conveyed his passion with joy and at the same time professionalism, it was a pleasure. Highly recommended
Guide prepared, who loves his job and does it with passion. He told us so many interesting things in fluent Italian.
Absolutely AWESOME 😍👍 Ahmed Yassine is such a cool guy, we liked him straight away!!! He showed us where, how and what!!! (insider tips) Where the best restaurants/beaches are where you can eat lobster 🦞 & camel medium steak 🥩 with gold leaf!!! He organized everything!!! Crazy thing 😁👍 And of course quality and value for money, not your run of the mill thing!!!
We have had nice trip , there is much to discover and see . Definitely recommended.
With our guide Ahmed Yassen we have already made several transfers and excursions. Luxor - Hurghada, Hurghada - El Gouna, Hurghada Airport etc. Always on time, super reliable, friendly helpful and price/performance more than good. The limousine clean and with air conditioning. I only ride with Yassen and will continue to use his services in the future.. So only recommended.
My girlfriend and I visited Luxor in one day. It was a wonderful experience, made special by our private guide Hassan. The guide, who speaks very good Italian, conveyed a lot of information that made us appreciate even more the extraordinary monuments we visited. We will be back soon!
Great tour guide who showed us the most beautiful corners of Luxor. The transfer in his van was super pleasant thanks to air conditioning. Very warm person, who has enabled us to have an indescribably great holiday.
