Punctual, comfortable and clean vehicle, prepared guide
This trip was amazing. Thanks to Khaled, our guide, it was fabulous. We highly recommend Khaled for his professionalism.
Hisham, the tour guide, speaks perfect English. He's willing to answer both tour related and non-related questions, and he is passionate about its work. At the end of the tour, he recommended and booked us a dinner in one of the best restaurants in Luxor. Joe will drive you easily around the most difficult streets in Egypt. We definitely recommend the tour!
Tour at Dendera Temple was a rich experience. Beautiful place, very well preserved temple. Many impressive images. Our guide Roshdy did a great job, and took care about us with safety and dedicated attention to details and explanations. Thank you. Celso / Ana
We had a wonderful time with tour guide, Rushdey and driver, Ahmed. This full day trip was wonderful and well worth the time it took to get there and back.
Roshdy was an excellent guide who was very informative and strived to make sure our experience was what we wanted. After sharing his knowledge he allowed us to spend any amount of time we wished to take pictures and we never felt rushed.
Roshdy was a great guide, very knowledgeable and courteous. He made sure we could enjoy the sites at our own pace, gave a lot of interesting background, and made the day hassle free. Highly recommended.
I had a great time today with a private full day tour to Dendara and Abydos. Khalid Eltayeb from Egypt Fantastic Tour is my tour guide and he is also a very nice, experienced and knowledgeable Egyptologist. Overall experience was above average and he has the best way of explaining the history in a fun way. He took me to Dendara first so I can have the whole place for myself which is the opposite way to start your tour. He also shared lots of tips and tricks and we did not forget to have a laugh at things sometimes. I would highly recommend him in case you are traveling to Luxor,Egypt.
Egypt Tailor Made Tours picked us up bright and early from our hotel and started our 3 hour drive to Abydos. The tour guide pointed out lots of information about the local culture, such as the sugar cane trains. We had a wonderful tour of the Abydos Temple and then hit the road for Dendera Temple. Dendera was my absolute favorite temple of my whole trip to Egypt. Beautiful columns and lots of wonderful color on the ceiling. It was a great stop because we were the only ones at the temple. They provided lunch for our drive back and lots of cold water!! I HIGHLY recommend Egypt Tailor Made Tours!!
Of the most important monuments to see, for their conservation and history, it is very worth visiting
