We had great time with Khaled. It was long, so I would suggest eating a good meal before. It’s a very well timed tour. I would recommend.
We had a nice day trip visiting the West Bank sites of Luxor with our guide Khaled and driver Yousef. They picked us up from our hotel on time. Both were friendly, polite and professional throughout our tour. Khaled spoke perfect English and was extremely knowledgeable of the history and sites, not just in Luxor but Egypt. He also provided very helpful recommendations for our stay in the city. The car used for our tour was in very good condition and comfortable. We were quite happy with the service we received from Reflection Travels, Khaled and Yousef.
Abdul was an excellent tour guide. As a trained Egyptologist, he knew so much and really brought the sites we saw to life. As a private tour, he was very flexible, which was nice so we could adjust to the kids, especially on a very hot day.
I pre arranged this with seperate filght from Sharm el sheikh. Everything was on time. Pick up driver Hamdy was at Luxor airport to pick us up and stayed with us all day. Iur tour guide Khaled was a very gentle man. Funny, experienced and very knowledgeable. He made the day a joy. Showed us all the major sights of Luxor. We appreciated his time. All in all a wonderful day and highly recommend this experience for the historical sights.
While I only spoke poor English, he talked to me a lot and tried to entertain me in various ways! They talked about their private lives as well as the history of each place, and I was able to join the tour in a cozy atmosphere. If you ever come to Luxor again, I would like to ask you.
Our tour was absolutely amazing. The drive was very comfortable, especially in this heat. Khaled, our guide, went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed every minute. He is very knowledgeable and told us the story with a lot of details, which we truly appreciated. Everything was perfectly organized. If you are considering visiting this part of Egypt, please make sure to ask for Khaled, he is truly wonderful!
The tour is well organized and, even if demanding due to the duration (especially under the late May / early June sun), it is really worth it. The places visited are breathtaking, the organization of the timing and the logistics of the meeting points were optimal, and the guide Khaled is very knowledgeable (even if he did not always accompany us inside the temples) and was very attentive to our needs. I recommend the tour, excellent value for money.
The driver's guide had already come and waited for us according to the arrival time of the plane. I'm glad the guide's commentary was kind. It was a great help to go to a shop that showed me how to make papyrus, which I had not planned.
An amazing day at Karnak and the Valley of the Kings. Great guide, perfect timing, no stress. Special thanks to Khaled: kind, knowledgeable and so caring. He brought history to life with passion. Highly recommend!
It was amazing to see all the great tombs and temples on the west bank of Luxor. A special thanks to my tour guide Khaled. He took all the time to show me the special places and explained the history of these ancient sites. It was an incredible experience.
