• 5Fantastic experience

  Our trip to Luxor was absolutely amazing! From start to finish, everything was well organised. The taxi ride was comfortable, smooth and efficient, and Luxor itself was simply breathtaking. The tombs were incredibly impressive and it was fascinating to learn more about the history and culture of this beautiful place. What made the day truly special, though, was our guide, Ahmed Valentino. He was absolutely fantastic! Ahmed has so much passion for what he does and shared so much interesting information with us. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and flexible, and was more than happy when we made some changes to the schedule. The local meal that was arranged for us was also delicious and a lovely addition to the day. All in all, it was a fantastic experience and a truly memorable day. We would highly recommend Ahmed Valentino to anyone visiting Luxor. He really made our trip extra special!

• 5Brillant private tour led by the excellent Valentino

  We booked a private tour of Luxor to ensure we had the flexibility around tour times and to do exactly what we wanted but also to leave and return when we wanted. We were picked up at 6am from makadi resort and arrived in Luxor around 9.40am. The transport was very comfortable for the 2 of us (a private car). The tour itself was led by the excellent Valentino, who was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and you knew he loved and lived his job and was a great tour guide. He also took great photos of us. We had the option to pay extra to see additional tombs at the valley of the kings (we took this up and saw the tomb of rameses 5 and 6) and also had the option of a trip to banana island. We didn’t do this which was for the decision we took for us. After the site visits in Luxor we had a nice lunch and returned home and arrived back at our hotel at 6pm. Overall if you want a personal, private tour scheduled to suit you. This is the way to go. It was great to have the private experience led by a knowledgeable guide. Despite it being a busy day it was relaxed and we really enjoyed it.

• 5Amazing experience

  Well what can I say firstly what an experience everything was perfect from start to finish. Our driver Ali was prompt and polite he picked us up on time and the car was already nice and cool, it can get very hot and this was something that had worried us (being a 3.5h journey from our hotel). Our guide Ahmed Valentino was a star, he is an expert on his subject matter and it felt his knowledge was endless. It was well worth getting the private tour over the group we discovered as groups were rushing past us and being hurried through but we felt no rush and were allowed to explore freely. Admission was covered under the tour price and we were recommend the best tombs to visit and wow it did not disappoint. An option trip was offered which we did take to banana island and are happy we didn’t miss out, we travelled in style on a traditional Egyptian boat across this nile and this experience alone was breathtaking. Our breakfast was amazing too, something Ahmed recommended and provided, a genuine tradition Egyptian breakfast of falafel and salad. The meal at the end was something else and we could not have asked for a better view and food. On the way back we were given refreshments and ice cream which was great after a warm day exploring. Thank you to Ahmed Valentino and Ali. Would definitely recommend this tour/experience for all
