We were absolutely captivated by the sheer magnificence of the temples. Our guide Mohamed was very kind and patient, and he arranged a great deal for our excursion to the Dendera Temple on the second day. Bonus: he's a good singer 😉

Half Day Tour was as listed - no frills and had was a great balance of hands on tour guiding and free wandering. Karnak is very large so we covered the highlights and the history before I was able to roam around. Tour guide was great and very knowledgeable on the sites. Moved on to Temple of Luxor, which is a little smaller but just as magnificent. Again, the tour guide was able to answer all of my questions and explained the background very well.

We really enjoyed our tour of the east bank. A lot of visitors focus on the tombs of the west bank, but Karnak Temple is the largest in the world and very well maintained - definitely worth a visit! Luxor Temple also has interesting history, covering several periods of the New Kingdom, and the avenue of sphinxes is amazing. We finished the tour with a good lunch, and our tour guide Ayad helped us organise a boat across the Nile back to our hotel, which we were very grateful for. Ayad was interesting and engaged throughout the day, and we would definitely recommend the tour. Thank you!

My husband and I just finished a half day tour with Salwa. She was an absolute delight, very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions 5000 questions patiently. She sat with us over lunch (we chose the paid lunch option) and we had a really nice conversation about Egypt. The driver (sorry I don’t remember his name) drive very safely (not easy to do in Egypt!). I would highly recommend her as a guide.

Unfortunately on this occasion we did not have a satisfactory experience with Emo Tours, our guide arrived 35 minutes late, his Spanish was too basic and his explanations were very basic, he never offered us the water he was supposed to give us even though it was a very hot day. We have had 4 excursions with Emo Tours and this is the first time that I felt that our guide did not care about offering quality service

This was a great way for my wife and I to see the East Bank in half a day as we didn't have a full day to explore. Our guide was great, with no complaints on her at all. She was informative and had a great personality. My only slight complaint on the tour is it felt a bit short. My assumption for a top half tour would be 12pm-5pm, but we ended closer to 3pm. We were given free time in each of the locations so maybe it's just a case of us not taking as much time. I still think it was a great way to see the East Bank, as we did the West Bank the next day and it would have been too much in one tour.

Our guide made this tour exceptional for us. Sam is one of the more qualified guides we used in Egypt and the Asam was careful and did not drive at excessive speed. The temples are a must see during a visit to Egypt

I was excited to see the temples and glad my tour guide Yosef allowed me to do it at my own pace. He constantly walked ahead of me which made it difficult to ask questions. He had an annoying reoccurring phrase, “What this mean” that I heard over and over. I would recommend the tour, but not with this guide.

Mansor was our guide for the Luxor and Karnak Temples. This was our 4th tour in Egypt so far and was the best by far bc of this guide. He was so honest and true. He took his time explaining the many things about Luxor and Karnak Temples. We had many questions about the history and contemplated many different scholar ideas and writings but he made things very clear in a different perspective, being Egyptian himself this was very valued knowledge that most tourist dont get to experience. I feel very fortunate and blessed to have him as our guide. We told him about our first day in Giza and how we got hounded by street vendors. We wanted to purchase a cartouche with our names but felt we were being given too high of prices. I'm so glad we spoke to him of this and told him as he immediately said that yes the price was double what it should have been. He saved us 1k USD!!! For the same authentic 18carat gold! He was a very good man and made us very happy! You must request him!

INCREDIBLE! I highly recommend taking this tour! It was perfect and our tour guide, Romaney, became a good friend by the end of it! Romaney was punctual and picked us up in our hotel lobby as planned a few days before our scheduled tour. He took us to the East bank and Luxor temples and educated us on so many details of Egyptian history. He made history so fun and interesting (even more than it already is!), gave us tips on how to navigate going through certain areas where people try to sell you items, and even brought us (by our request!) to certain shops that were the most authentic and high quality of items. We cannot thank this tour company and Romaney enough for making our trip so incredible and taking every detail with extra time and care to make sure we felt safe, comfortable, and interested at all times. Romaney helped us get the best photos, showed us his favorite areas, and see everything and beyond. If I could give 20 stars I would!
