Great way to end Luxor with a later tour with Ahmed Abdulteif giving us a lovely introduction to Karnak and Luxor temple . He led us away from crowds and highlighted fun facts and also knew all the best photo shots . We appreciated his dedication , humour and friendly attitude especially when there was so much to see . Favourite time was when it started to be sunset , despite the number of tourist. We had a great time and would recommend for others to try .

It was a very good experience. This time, we only had a driver and a car without a guide, but the driver was eager to talk to us inside the car, and we didn't get bored during the trip.

After our amazing encounter with Taha the day before, we decided to explore Luxor and the Karnak Temple with him, instead of on our own. We booked our trip with him, and since it was Taha's second trip, he went above and beyond to take us to a nice koshari restaurant for lunch. Taha and the agency provided the best travel experience. Highly recommended.

Initially we booked this half day tour for in the morning but having seen Luxor Temple lit up at night we asked if we could change the timing to late afternoon. Nothing was too much trouble for Mohammed at IconTours Egypt and our pick up time was changed without any issues. It was great to start the tour of Karnak at a cooler time and to be at Luxor temple for sunset. We feel super lucky to have met our guide Mansour. He showed us areas of the temples that were bypassed by bigger tour groups. Often we found ourselves in quiet areas learning about the carvings and the stories they depicted with no one else around - which in busy Egypt is no small feat! These great temples are awe inspiring but to be given the opportunity to get a true picture of the thought and meaning behind their creation was great. Mansour not only made our tour memorable by sharing his knowledge but also by encouraging us to question things. Mansour’s background and being well traveled meant we shared a sense of humour so a lot of laughs were had which is always a massive bonus.

We had a fantastic day in Luxor with our guide Mansour! He took us through the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon, sharing fascinating history and stories at every stop. Mansour was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience enjoyable and easy. We really appreciated how he brought the sites to life and helped us get great photos. Highly recommend him to anyone visiting Luxor!
