Karnak And Luxor Temples Private Tour

We had a great tour with Rania! We beat the crowds and the weather was perfect. She spoke great english and told us many facts about the sites. Would recommend

Wow, wow, wow. What a wonderful private tour this is. Walid was an incredible tour guide who through his knowledge and enthusiasm brought ancient Egypt and the hieroglyphics to life. He also was great with my daughters keeping them engaged and entertained. Furthermore, thanks to his experience he took and helped us take stunning photos. Pick up from our hotel at 2:30pm was seamless and George our driver was great, never parking too far. Karnak and Luxor Temples are phenomenal places and it can become easy to be overwhelmed by the amount to take in. However on this tour you are in great hands and will leave enriched with great photos and wonderful memories. Many thanks again Walid and George.

Walid was super knowledgeable and an excellent guide. He explained all of the inscriptions and gave wonderful insight into the history of the region. Great experience!

What a wonderful adventure through the past today! We really enjoyed our time today and would certainly book again. We were well taken care of, the facts were interesting and well explained in the broader context of Egyptian history, and he left plenty of time for Instagram photos. (-: Highly recommend.

George was an excellent Guide very thorough answered all our questions, gave us an in-depth view of Karnac and Luxor Temple

Walid was a fantastic guide who was extremely knowledgeable and showed us all of the sights of both temples. We had a great time and would highly recommend him as your guide. Fayez was a great driver.

Fabulous . Our guide ayman elhassany - was excellent. This is our second trip to Egypt and Ayman has been the best guide we have had. His knowledge and how he explained the Egyptian history was very enlightening. Also very nice gentleman.

Raniah collected our group of 4 from reception of our cruise boat at 6am. Arrived at Karnak at 6:15am when only a few visitors there. Her knowledge and enthusiam was amazing. Cant recommend more highly.

Reem was an excellent tour guide and provided a lot of fascinating information as we explored Karnak and Luxor Temples. She was very knowledgeable but also extremely warm, friendly, polite, and willing to take as many photos as I wanted without making me ever feel like I was imposing. I loved going here during sunset — it was quite breathtaking. The epic and colossal nature of these sacred temples and monuments are quite awe-inpsiring to say the least. I highly recommend booking this tour — you won't regret it! Thanks Reem, for an unforgettable experience!

Very knowledgeable and friendly. Arrived on time and was patient throughout. Also was good photographer. Kept everyone engaged.

This was an amazing experience! We've visited several other Egyptian sites solo or just with a driver, but wanted to see at least one with a guide, and it's 100% worth it. Rania was amazing - full of knowledge and enthusiasm, she really made our day. Bukr the driver was also super friendly and helpful. The whole day was well organised, with good communication before and on the day from Walid. Golden Joy Travel are the best tour agency we've dealt with so far in Egypt and I'd strongly recommend them to anyone.

We had a absolutely wonderful tour with Mr. Walid. An extremely knowledgeable guide, who taught us a lot today and took care to show us so many small details that we would have not seen otherwise. Super prompt, very organized and very patient with all our questions.

Highly informative and enjoyable experience. The guide had no difficulty answering the most difficult questions and was most helpful throughout the tour. I certainly recommend this tour.

Exploring Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple with Walid was amazing. We started at Karnak, and were impressed by its vastness, with highly-decorated entranceways, walls, and columns everywhere, especially in the Great Hypostyle Hall. The columns were covered in intricate and colorful hieroglyphics. Walid explained the significance of the different sections to us as well as interpreting many of the hieroglyphics. He answered all our questions well and we enjoyed hearing his stories behind the hieroglyphics. Then we continued to Luxor Temple, which is where new pharaohs would be crowned and had a more elegant feel. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and recommend it.

Walid was an excellent guide and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour of the temples. I could feel the majesty with the ornate architecture and could easily picture what it was like thousands of years ago. We went at 7am on a Saturday morning and it was so peaceful, calm, not too hot. I could explore these temples again and again- there's so much to admire. Thank you, Walid!

This was such an informative and fun day. Ahmed is incredibly knowledgeable, especially given his past experience as a local archaeologist which is truly impressive! We learned so much about the temples and the history in Luxor. Ahmed has an incredible way of telling stories where you can feel his passion about them, which makes it even more exciting to learn.

We had an amazing 3-day tour in Luxor as a family of four with two young kids. On the third day, we visited the Dendera Temple of Hathor, located about 1.5 hours north of Luxor by car. We were lucky to be paired with Rania, a Luxor local with a master’s degree in Egyptology who reads hieroglyphics like a pro! She did a fantastic job explaining the history at each site, answering all our questions, and tailoring the experience to keep our kids engaged. The tour company was incredibly efficient, with spot-on transportation and a breathtaking sunrise balloon ride that they arranged seamlessly. We asked to skip some of the usual tourist roadside stops, and they accommodated our request without any issues. Our days started around 7:30 AM, and we were usually back at the hotel by early afternoon. The price was very fair and arranged easily via WhatsApp. Highly, highly recommend!

It was absolutely delightful to have this tour on our first day in Luxor! The guide was very knowledgeable, making it an amazing experience. All our questions were answered, and every topic was covered thoroughly. Highly recommend this tour!

Great service and really informative. Picked up and dropped off at the hotel. Not rushed and professional.

Pick from the hotel was lovely and on time, Ramia our guide was amazing she was very knowledgeable and had a warming and friendly manner. We had an amazing day and would highly recommend her and the trip.

I had an unforgettable experience on the Luxor Temple and Karnak Temple tour with our amazing guide, Waleed. His deep knowledge of ancient Egyptian history brought the temples to life, and his enthusiasm made every moment captivating. Waleed was not only informative but also incredibly engaging, ensuring that everyone felt included and excited about the sights. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Luxor—Waleed truly made it special!

Such a great tour with Waleed. He knew all the history and all the important places in the temples (I don't know how he remembers such details) it was such a great tour. I would recommend.

Picked up by Rania who kindly waited for us in our hotel reception. Very warm welcome with bottles of water provided. Air conditioned car with private driver. We experienced Karnak / Luxor temples with our private guide Rania who had studied Egyptology for 5 years in Cairo and this really showed! She was very educational, explaining to us the history of Luxor, the temples, hieroglyphics as well as taking some great photos for us! She was very kind and she did not push for time or tips which has been very common in Egypt for us. She also showed us some local restaurants and shops which were not wildly overpriced for once! I would 1000% recommend this tour with Rania and wish her all the best for the future ☺️

We had such a great time with Rania on our tour of the Karnak and Luxor Temples! She was so kind and knowledgeable about not just the history of the temples we visited but all of Egypt’s history. We went in the late afternoon and I would recommend that time frame as the afternoon light makes the temples glow. The Karnak Temples absolutely blew us away (and may have even topped the pyramids for best sight in Egypt). Rania even recommended a great place for dinner where we sat on the rooftop and watched the sunset. I would highly recommend this tour!

We booked this tour and it was a very good experience. We requested a Spanish speaking guide and they were able to arrange. Zacarias was an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable and provided very clear explanations and answered all our questions.

Must visit the Karnak and Luxor temples. Our tour guide Reem was knowledgeable and friendly. She picked us from our hotel on time and took lots of photos for us. She even dropped us at a particular shop which we requested and even volunteered to wait for us. She gave us information about app to get local taxi. Would highly recommend.

Marian was a great tour guide. We got picked up right in the time we requested. They even listened when I messaged to adjust pick up time to accommodate for our time. The temples we saw were so beautiful and the tour was very informative and calm. Marian will listen and go at the pace you desire. Would recommend

Absolutely fantastic private tour with Rania! We visited both temples in east side of Luxor and with her amazing knowledge on history, hieroglyphs, archeology, we just learned so many things about all these kings on great ancient times. I strongly recommended! Great driver too with a nice car to drive us around.

We toured the Temples of Karnak and Luxor with Walid (two adults and adult daughter). These are both overwhelming sites and Walid did a first-rate job taking us through, interpreting hieroglyphics, and explaining ancient Egyptian religion and society. I’m a professor and historian of antiquity (not Egypt) and I’ve taught introductory classes on Egyptian history. I knew some of the historical details but Walid took us much deeper and I learned a great deal. He was personable and flexible with our schedule. Highly recommended.

Our tour to Karnak and Luxor temples was amazing. Our guide Rania is very knowledgable and her academic background helps a lot in explaining the history behind. We totally recommend this tour which is very well organised and rich in information. We chose to start at 7am to avoid rush hours.

The tour guid, Valid, was so patient and great at explaining about the Temples. I took 2:30pm tour and luckily watched the sunset in Luxor Temple. It was picturesque.

Punctual came on time to pick up us. Rayna was so amazing, with good communication, super knowledgeable. She explained all in detail and great pace did not rush us through our tour. She took our great picture on perfect location which made our tour memorable. Also advised where to buy high quality artwork and necklaces in cheaper price. Very satisfied with my tour I highly recommend Rayna.

Our tour guide Rania made this experience amazing! She was so informative and did a great job engaging our three teens/tween. Karnak and Luxor temples are not to be missed. Our driver, George, was extremely professional.

I booked this tour last minute when I realize that a guide is definitely needed as a solo traveler. My guide reached out to me to let me know that we should start the tour later to beat the heat, and I am glad we did. This gave us the chance to make it to Luxor temple at sunset and then see it in the evening when it is lit up. I made a friend the day before flying in from Cairo and I asked if she could join the tour the day of. They graciously added her on and even picked her up from the airport before getting me! We felt safe and received lots of detailed information on the sites that remind us all that the ancient Egyptians were people just like us with beautiful stories. We were also given free time for pictures just how we wanted!

Rania was our tour guide and she was amazing! We shared a lot of laughs and she was extremely knowledgeable about Egypt’s history. We wished we could’ve booked another tour (valley of the kings) with her because she was that great! Highly recommend!

Interesting tour with a very experienced guide, who also know where to take the best shots with light and positions. We learned a lot and enjoyed the experience. The car for the trasfer was very clean and they offered us fresh bottle of waters during the your to alleviate the hot sun. For the best experience I recommend to go around 15:00 to enjoy the sunset on the Luxor Temple.

Fantastic trip from start to finish, Walid was a mine of information and knew all the best spots to get photos from Can’t recommend him enough

Vi betalte 431kr som var veldig god pris, ekskludert billetter og tips. Veldig hyggelig guide som kunne mye og som lærte oss mye om historien. Man kan også velge tidspunkt for å bli hentet, så man trenger ikke stå opp så tidlig om man vil sove litt lengre.👍 anbefaler virkelig denne private turen, for par, enslig og familie. We paid 43$ which is a good price for this tour. This price do not include the tickets and tips, but that is no problem. 👍 You can also choose pick up time, so you can sleep a little longer that day.😊 We recommend this tour to couples, singles and family. There is absolutely a more comfortable and instructive tour with a private guide, than the bigger groups.

I enjoyed the tour very much. My guide was knowledgeable as she has a master degree in the related field and I was able to get so much information that I would not be able to get if I went there by myself.

A Stunning tour ! Thanks to Walid, my guide, for meeting me at the train station at 6:30am! Walid was so intelligent and was able to answer any question I had. I was in awe listening to him talk about kings and the temples. He is also a great photographer! This was a brilliant tour , a fantastic experience.

We absolutely loved the comfort and ease of this tour! Our guide was super knowledgeable and fun, the car was immaculate and comfortable, and our driver was careful and attentive. We were able to begin early, miss the crowds, and wander through both temples and the Avenue of the Sphinxes at our leisure. Our wonderful guide also took me to a couple of stores afterwards so I could buy spices (which she helped me pick out!), and our driver returned to our hotel later to take us to the airport. Overall, it couldn't have been better. Excellent information and even better company!

Had a wonderful tour of Karnak and Luxor Temples with Walid. He met us at our hotel and took us first to Karnak. So knowledgeable and a lovely person. Very much enjoyed our tour of Karnak which is just amazing. We were then taken to Luxor Temple and Avenue of the Sphinxes . Another amazing place and a fantastic tour by Walid. We learned so much and Walid guided us so well we got to avoid most of the crowds! A very enjoyable morning and Walid and his driver were a delight!

Our guide was Rania to tour the east bank (Karnak and Luxor). Rania is an amazing guide. So passionate about what she does. We had an absolutely unforgettable time. She is so knowledgeable and extremely helpful in answering all our questions. Took a ton of photos for us. And genuinely recommended things to us so we can have a good time in Luxor without harboring any sales intention. Highly recommend doing your tour with Raina.

Walid is an excellent guide. He is clearly passionate about his work. He is kind and gave us plenty of time to explore and ask questions. We learnt so much on our tour and saw so many intricate carvings that we would not have seen on our own. Highly recommended

Had a half day trip with Rania, she is very nice and give us lots of knowledge on the Egypt history, recommend to have a trip with Rania if you come to Luxor!

Awesome knowledgeable guide with extensive detail in history. Well worth the money and time. Even stopped afterwards for local food.

Marian was an excellent and incredibly knowledgeable guide. We learnt a lot from her. She bought the history to life.

Our guide was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable about the temples. He was also an excellent photographer and took great pictures - highly recommend.

An excellent and memorable visit to the two landmark sites in Luxor. Our guide Walid was an absolute gentleman and showed just the right amount of earnestness in explaining stuff and gave us the space to explore on our own. There was no attempt to take us to any shops to buy stuff (rather refreshing from the other tours). I would definitely recommend this company and especially Walid as a guide for your visit to the temples in Luxor.
