Luxor

Carmen_E, Mar 2020

Hany Yassen was our guide and Mohammad our driver during the guided tour in Luxor. The experience was amazing and Hany is very historical savvy. We visited the Valley of the kings, went to a local coffee shop ( I needed the caffeine, after a long train ride). It was a great adventure to those looking for a unique experience. I definitely recommend for you to shop (gold, papyrus in Luxor not in Cairo). We also went to the Temple of Hatshepsut, colossi of Memnon, Temple of Karnak, & the Luxor Temple. They are breath taking and incredible to see! Hany does a great job explaining and taking you through the main key points in history.

Our tour guide Hany and driver Mohammed went above and beyond to make sure that my sister's and I had a great time!! Hany our tour guide was exceptional and very informative. He also took us to several places to make purchases and eat excellent food! The train ride wasn't a bad experience for the price and was overnight so no daytime hours were lost. I highly recommend this tour. We met some great people along the way and I will make contact when I return back to Luxor in coming months. Thank you so much for a great time!!!
