Mahh moof is the best - Let me write a short review for one of my Egypt tour guides. So, I visited tour to Edful and Qom. And if you are that person who likes adventure, then you would like this. Otherwise, pretty sure you won't. I got picked up last minute, super earlier than I was expected. But the person did tell me that that was going to happen.So the person who picked me up was a 19-year-old, super reckless driver. I mean, he's a 19-year-old. Um, didn't understand what I was saying or asking because he didn't speak English. He only took me to very expensive, um, places. And the whole thing was a scam. Except the tour to the temple. So once we got to the temple, I met the tour for that temple. Especially the tour, the best tour that I've ever had in the whole trip with Mahmood

A wonderful day exploring the well preserved Edfu Temple - Smooth, effortless communication with the tour operator. We were piked up on time by a friendly driver in a nice car. We were given plenty of time to see both temples and were brought back home safely. The Edfu Temple is better preserved than the Kom Ombo Temple. We didn't know that at the time so ask your driver or your tour guide (if you've booked one) for more time in Edfu. We had a wonderful day and I definitely recommend this tour!

Amazing - Guide and taxi driver were amazing. Guide advised a different site to visit instead of Kom Ombo. He was definitely right it was amazing.

Great driving but tipping is a problem - Very nice tour , the guide very good a very good person . The only unnice thing for which I was very bad but on the other hand almost everywhere here in Egypt is that tipping is mandatory and there is also a minimum amount. I think everyone should be free to give an offer based on their experience and I for example did not have a great experience with the driver who took me from the ship to the Edfu temple this morning. The minimum tip was 1€ which is equivalent to 50 Egyptian pounds I had only 100 pounds and I kindly asked the driver to change them and give me 50 , he with a full wallet wanted to give me back only 20 pounds telling me that the rest would be a gift from me when I had only those without the possibility of withdrawing others and in addition a little annoyed by the attitude I would not even give him 1€ if it was not mandatory. However, it took him a while to give me change and he wouldn’t even let me down. These people are already paid but still require extra money MANDATORY when in my opinion it should be on offer whether or not you are satisfied with your experience, if you do not give them the money they treat you like patches and this is not good at all.

Go for a private tour - It s a very long way from Luxor to Edfu and Kom Ombo, but we can definetely say that is worth it, especially for Edfu which is greatly conserved. You are going to spend most of the time in the car, but doing it with Abu and Peter made everything funny and enjoyable, they are the cutest. Thanks again for everything guys!
I will not give 5 stars only because we booked our private tour at 9am, and the night before the company asked to move it at 6 or 7am.

Really good day out - Small mix up about pick up time but resolved quickly. I chose the driver only option and was happy with that as I have been before many years ago and prefer walking around at my own pace taking photos. Special thanks to the driver Ayman who kept me entertained and managed the difficult traffic with complete calm and I always felt safe and secure- car was very comfortable.

Don't think was worth the time - It says that is 4 hours per temple, of course it's not that much. Is 8 hours of journey by car. For each temple, the guide will give you an explanation of 10-15 min and will give you other 15 minutes to see it by yourself. The temples of Edfu is pretty big, of course is not enough time (the guide was really nice and gave me my time, but of course, you will be behind the schedule, we arrived near 2 hours late). The temples were really beautiful (not too extraordinary, if you don't have too much time, you can skip them) but next time I will visit them on another way.
