I have been to Luxor and Karnack temples on five different tours, but never have I experienced a more knowledgeable and Pleasant guide than Sherry. She was enthusiastic about the subject matter and very eager to answer the questions that came from the group. I’m certain she would be an excellent guide for any English speaking group. I recommend her highly. The driver was also extremely Pleasant and his vehicle was very clean and nice.
We loved our tours especially because our guide Sherry was extremely amazing. She’s very knowledgeable about the history of Egypt and she’s also very patient. It was quite hot and she ensured we were ok.
We had an incredible experience on this private tour! Our guide, Sherry, was absolutely wonderful, she made the day so much fun and possessed a massive depth of knowledge about Egyptian history, Karnak Temple, and Luxor Temple. What really blew us away was her flexibility. Even though our flight was delayed by 2 hours, she waited for us at the airport, stayed in constant communication, and was incredibly understanding. Because of the delay, we couldn't start until 9:00 AM, but Sherry didn't let that rush us at all. We started at Karnak Temple, which is a mind-bogglingly impressive site, and then moved on to Luxor Temple after a quick break. While Luxor is the smaller of the two, it is equally magnificent. Throughout the entire tour, Sherry gave us plenty of time to take photos and enthusiastically answered every single question we had. It was a perfect, stress-free experience. Highly recommended!
Well I do not have enough words to say how great Sherry was. I can safely say out of all the guides we had in Egypt, she was by far the best! She was incredibly knowledgeable, a professional photographer (to say she took great pictures for us - knew the best spots, best angles), and took such great care of us. We had a early morning flight to Luxor, she allowed us some extra time before visiting Karnak to get something to eat and drink so we were awake and ready for the visit! And we had free time in each location after she explained everything to walk around to admire the incredible monuments and take any other pictures we wanted. If you need a tour guide in Luxor, she is the person to book! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Sherry was an amazing tour guide. She was very polite and knowledgeable about the history of Karnak and Luxor temple. She took amazing photos as well. She took me to have a falafel pita sandwich which was truly delicious. I highly recommend booking with Sherry if you are wanting to visit Karnak and Luxor temple.
Sherry the guide was awesome she was very knowledgeable and helpful to take cool photo's Also helped us skip the scammers
We toured the karnak and luxor temples with Shrehan!!! Let me say that she was absolutely amazing!! She picked us up at our hotel and began the tour with water. she was extremely informative and super fun. I would def reccommend her
Shrehan was a very knowleable and entertaining storyteller. She made me feel very welcome and like we could be friends for years. I highly recommend her as your guide. She knew where all the best heiroglyphs, the best poses for photo ops and even took us to eat some delicious dates (w/nuts) and knew the best spice shop. Wish I could have her as my guide for all my tours in Luxor!
We did a half day tour of the Karnak and Luxor temples. Our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us all her knowledge in an exciting and engaging way. We loved hearing the stories and seeing how we can interpret ancient Egyptian writings, drawings and hieroglyphics. She was able to answer all of our questions. She went above and beyond and kindly asked the driver to stop at a small shop so we could get some food and refreshments at the end of the tour before dropping us off back at our hotel.

Our tour guide was very kind and welcoming. However, due to limited English proficiency, it was often difficult to fully understand her throughout much of the tour. There were several questions asked that were not clearly answered, and the language barrier made overall communication challenging. As a result, the experience was not as educational as we had hoped, and there were moments when the guide was not consistently attentive to the group. Additionally, a significant portion of the tour involved being driven through very tourist-focused areas where there were attempts to sell items, when we were simply hoping to stop for a casual meal. We feel the experience could be improved by having a guide with stronger English communication skills, clearer engagement with guest questions, and a more guest-focused itinerary.
Had a private guide in Luxor for two days. Sherry was excellent and well worth it for her local expertise! Luxor was one of my favorites on my Egypt trip. Valley of the Kings, Karnak & Luxor temples (Luxor Temple at night was less crowded and beautifully lit), Luxor Museum, Hatshepsut Temple and more! Don’t miss the hot air balloon at sunrise - great way to start your visit to Luxor! Hope to see Sherry again next time!
We had a wonderful trip! Our Tourguide Shrehan was the best guide ever!! She was helpful, friendly, professional… 11 out of 10!!
I had booked this tour for 8:00 am but was asked to change it to 2:30pm with the reason that it was a better time in order to avoid crowd as the sites were less crowded in the afternoon... It was the opposite and when we arrived at Luxor it was really overcrowded ! The guide we had for both sites was clearly more interested to get rid of us and leave us on our own after giving us some information without moving aroud the temple ! The guide was totally useless and it is us who asked him to leave us alone !!
I went on a private bespoke tour of Ancient Egyptian sites with a group. Ahmed Talaat from Travel Trend carefully crafted every aspect of our tour and made sure that each day and experience flowed seamlessly. I cannot recommend Travel Trend Egypt enough and I would wholeheartedly recommend them and their services to anyone looking for a bespoke experience. Shukran Ahmed 🙏🏼
Our trip was absolutely seamless thanks to our incredible guide Sherihan. Her deep knowledge, professionalism, and infectious energy transformed a standard tour into a truly unforgettable experience. She consistently went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect, tailoring the itinerary to our interests and handling every request with grace. She is a massive asset to the company and, frankly, deserves a significant raise for the level of excellence she provides. I cannot recommend her highly enough!"
Great tour of Karnak and Luxor temples with Sherry. Lots of information and details about each site. Great to enjoy the company of a local mum, very friendly and knowledgeable and lots of laughs along the way. Highly recommend her tours. Thanks Shu Shu

Sherry was our guide and she was simply fantastic. Very friendly, warm and knowledgeable. She really looked after us and made our time in Luxor well worthwhile and fun. We would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone wanting to do this tour. Lovely, lovely lady. Her driver took was excellent. Very kind. Very, very good driver.
Had an amazing day with Cherry, she was very passionate and full of information about the tour. Would definitely recommend her for family and friends to do a tour with her!
We had a very knowledgeable guide called Sherry. Fantastic tour, and the minibus was very comfortable. Would recommend 100%
Sherry was a wonderful guide and extremely knowledgeable. We learned a lot today. The sites were very impressive. I would highly recommend this tour with Sherry! I would request her services if we return to Luxor.
Awesome throughout and ended up doing a custom package, aa our guide wanted us to have the best, after being ill for a few days
This was the best tour ever done. We were booked for the tour and rescheduled twice with our guide without any fuss. The tour we expected was half day, but our guide Cheri, was amazing and we ended doing a custom package. To also include valley of the kings and an additional temple. We also had my wife's jewellery altered whilst on tour. Visited a stone masonry from local granite, and other materials. Guided tour of how they made item, amazing craft manship. Cheri was great, patient and very attentive throughout. Highly recommend.
Sherihan was an amazing guide! We did the Karnak and Luxor temples and avenue of sphinxes. Sherihan gave my son who loves all the Egyptology an in-depth description of hieroglyphics and he truly enjoyed the knowledge he learned. Sherihan was passionate and a joy to have!
Ms. Sherihan was my guide and she was wonderful. She said “it is your day… we do as you wish”, which was very accommodating. We started with Karnak before the crowds and it was spectacular. She also took many photos for me. We then went to Luxor and again, had the place to ourselves. I really enjoyed being shown the history and meaning behind everything and it was thanks to Ms. Sherihan. Best guide I’ve had.
Great day looking around the Karnak and Luxor temples. Our guide was friendly and enthusiastic and answered our questions. We also went on a short Nile boat trip in addition to the tour. He gave a lot of detail about the sites and meaning of the hierogliphs. Very helpful generally as well! Lunch was fine but in an entirely empty restaurant.
I went on a two-day trip to from Makadi Bay to Luxor. Even though the trip was a "last minute" decision it was well organised by Travel Trend . Half way to Luxor the guide Wael was pick up, highly educated historian whom made the experince/sight seeing in Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple and Valley of the kings much more interesting. Wael was very informative about the history, the culture and religions of Egypt. Beside of the sight seeing, the trip included a boattrip on the Nile, lunch at two local/authetic restaurants in Luxor, horse trip at night time around Luxor and a overnight stay at a hotel. A minor downside of the trip was the hotel I stayed at in Luxor. Hotel Steigenberger Achti Luxor was Fantastic nice, clean Hotel, Dinner was very good Buffet was rich & varities of quality food very recommended I would highly recommend Travel Trend Egypt and I wouldn´t hesitate to ask Them to arrange a new trip when I return to Egypt in the future. I would even ask for Wael to be my private guide again. I wish all the best
This tour was around 4-4 1/2 hours and we saw both Karnak and Luxor temples. Our guide Sharihan was really very informative& give us a lot about Egyptian history & culture,She was flexible with our tour and allowed us to see the temples guided with her, and then free time to explore on our own,I’d enjoy a longer tour with her. Really we Say Thanks a lot SHOKRAN!!!!
Shrehan, our tour guide greeted us at the Luxor airport on our inbound early flight from Cairo and provided us with a great tour of both the Karnak and Luxor temples. Impressive how these millennia old temples were built! Shrehan was both very informative and enthusiastic to share her knowledge about Luxor’s sites. Great way to start our day!
This tour was fantastic! Great vehicle on time picked us up in the hotel, very comfortable, ice cold water and the best part: our great guide Sherihan! She was a warm, kind, very knowledgeable person, with lots of interesting information to share about the temples and Egypt. Give it a go, no doubt about it!
My guide was very gracious and informative. I learned a lot about the history of the country and the temples.
Samira was our guide and she knows a lot about the Karnak and Luxor temple. She explained a lot on the sites and it is really a must see! We had a great time!
Sabah was very friendly, flexible, very knowledgeable guide. We had a great time w her. The transport car is spacious. If you don’t want trouble arranging anything, then book it without hesitation. However I think the tour is priced too high for 2 temples, considering there is almost no driving from downtown Luxor. My tour to the West Bank was priced lower considering the entrance tkts cost more and the drive is a lot more substantial. If the weather is not hot, I would recommend walking the sphinx ave that connects the 2 temples.

Sabah is very knowledgeable about Egyptian history along with being really fun and interesting. I’d enjoy a longer tour with her. Shukkran !
We had an excellent half day visiting the temples of Karnak and Luxor. Our guide, Sabah, it was so great to be guided by a woman for a change, was knowledgeable and engaging keeping a good balance between time alone and time with her. First class. I would hope to book her again next time I am in the area. Our driver, Iman, took great pride in his car and that showed. It was immaculately clean and his English was good enough for us to chat with him about a few things.
Our Tour Guide was Wael, I highly recommend him. Very knowledgeable, personable...just and overall nice guy. Thanks Wael...until we meet again.
My friend and I took a sleeper train to Luxor from Cairo. We arrived around 6am and our guide Ahmed met us at the station. We were advised to go to the temples right away as a river cruise boarding was unavailable and we can avoid a crowd of people this way as well. He's full of knowledge and very helpful. After the trip we were able to check-in and he was our private guide all the way to Aswan and took care of us every step of the way. By the end of the trip, he was like a friend who took care of us. I would highly recommend him to anyone who's looking for a guide in Egypt.
Rely on this team! Our group of 20 was treated like royals and educated like master's students. Walaa met us the first morning and instantly earned our trust and respect. Nadar kept us on track and laughing along the way. They ensured safety and comfort, and then spent countless hours teaching us about the history and art and culture and religion of this amazing land. I'm a million-miler international businessman...and this is the best tour group I've had the blessing of sharing the path with on my adventures. We actually went on many of their tours, not just Luxor. But Luxor and Valley of the Kings were my favorites.
We enjoyed a pleasant visit with Dr yosra, very clear in her explanations and who speaks very good French
Our guide, Sherry, explained in detail the historical sites and gave us a better understanding of them.
Sayerd speaks very good German. Organization perfect. The tour was very interesting. 😊😊😊🙏🙏🙏🌞🌞
I begin by thanking Mustafa, a person prepared, helpful and a great kindness. Everything went great, from hotel pickup to visits. The fascinating explanations were the perfect setting for fantastic places. Mustafa thank you again for making the beauty of your lands even more beautiful.
Spiegazione della guida interessante anche se a tratti un po’ sbrigativa. Consiglierei le prossime volte di stare di più al tempio di Karnak, visto che comunque in 3ore e mezza circa finisce il tour, vedendo entrambi i templi.
Visite des deux temps avec un très bon guide français, bonne visite ! Rien à redire . Allez y vous ne serez pas déçu.
Notre guide Ali était très intéressant, il connaît bien son domaine. Il a été adorable avec ma fille de 4 ans.
Enthousiaste, onderlegde gids. Veel deskundige en ruime uitleg over het oude Egypte. Zeker aan te raden.
Excelente tour para conocer estos dos templos. Todo muy bien, puntualidad y guía en español muy descriptivo. Muy recomendable
His travel was pleasant and the reception by the company was good, the treatment was good and they offered the best to the tourist had a few minor problems and was abandoned and all his professionalism and thanks the master Mahmud al-happy welcome
