Luxor - This tour was very informative and took us to all the major sites of Luxor and the Valley of the Kings. Our tour guide (Rosie) was extremely helpful and accommodating for me as I had hurt my knee earlier in the day and was using a cane. I highly recommend him as a tour guide. We also had an excellent driver for our tour.

Amazing Luxor, Great tour guide Mohammad. - Our visit to Luxor was amazing. After much research , I decided to go with Reflection Travels' private one day luxor East and West Bank tour with tickets + lunch. I must say it's a value for money package. Our guide Mohammed ( English speaking) was knowledgeable and guided us in the best possible way. His narration about all historical monuments took us through a journey back to pharaonic times. Anytime you visit Luxor, I must recommend to choose Reflection travels and Mohammad as tour guide is a must.

Fantastic guided tour by Hany Yassen and driver Taha - Fantastic guided tour with Hany Yassen. He was able to give plenty of insight and historical context surrounding all the sites visited through the day. Also very kind and patient, he lets you explore the sights at your own pace. Our driver Taha also excellent - very courteous and safe driver. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Luxor

Only have one day to see it all in Luxor, this is the tour to book - The tour covers some of the most iconic sites in Egypt: the Valley of the Kings, the Valley of the Queens, the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, Karnak Temple, and Luxor Temple—all in one day. It’s an ambitious itinerary, but it’s perfect if you’re short on time and want to see it all. The round-trip transportation was seamless and comfortable, with an air-conditioned vehicle that made getting from one site to the next enjoyable. Bottled water was provided, and lunch was included. The lunch was huge and very filling—more than enough to refuel after exploring the sites. However, be aware that you'll need to purchase your own drinks, as they were not included with the meal. As for our Egyptologist guide, Abdo, he was knowledgeable and shared a lot of information about each site. However, the interaction was a bit limited. I noticed he was frequently on his phone throughout the day, which made me feel a little like an inconvenience at times. While this did affect the personal experience somewhat, it also allowed me some freedom to explore the sites at my own pace, which I appreciated. One thing to note is that the tour’s fast pace works if you only have one day. However, I do feel that the locations, especially Karnak Temple and the Valleys, deserve more time. Spreading the tour over two days would allow for a deeper dive into the history and significance of these places, which is something I would recommend if you have the flexibility. In summary, this tour is great for seeing the highlights in a short amount of time. The logistics were smooth, and the sites were breathtaking. If you're looking to maximize your time, this is the tour for you. However, if you're a history buff or someone who wants more engagement, you may want to consider a more in-depth experience.

The used the infrastructure built by the ancient forerunners - Our excursion included: 1. Valley of the kings 2. Valley of the queens 3. Temple of Hatshepsut 4!!! Show how made the rock sculpture 5!!! Show how they make they make a scarfs 6. Lunch was in ugly place. 7. Luxor temple 8.!!! Parfume shop 9. Karnak temple (I think it was before the luxor). For my humble opinion half of our stops have no make sense. Yeah guide tried to explain us many things, he okay but it's still not enough. For the rest things I'm sure we can do better without it. So what I recommend not use the viator and othe platform and just buy the sim card of orange or Vodafone which will cost 4 usd for 7gb and use Uber(in cairo) and indrive(In other places), change 100-150usd to egp and feel okay without the guide and use the Wikipedia directly in place. Please be sure you don't need tour guides, vaitors and other, cuz its nothing. Thx
