We visited the Valley of the Kings on the West Bank of Luxor and the Karnak and Luxor temples on the East Bank with our guide Mona. Mona’s English was impeccable and she was super friendly. She answered all of our questions and shared her vast knowledge of Luxor. At the Valley of the Kings we visited three tombs. The tombs were so cool because the colors had been preserved inside each tomb. There were elaborate paintings covering almost every surface of the inside of each tomb. Then Mona took us to lunch on the East bank of Luxor. After lunch we began the tour of the East bank temples, Karnak temple and Luxor temple. Karnak temple was enormous. Mona walked us through and told us all about the hyroglyphics and about the purpose of each of the large statues. She gave us some time to roam around on our own and take pictures. We visited Luxor temple after sunset. Mona chose to show it to us at night because of how beautiful it looks all lit up in the evening. After Luxor temple we were dropped at our hotel, where Mona accompanied us inside and helped us to check in. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Luxor. Ask for Mona - she is a great guide and so easy to interact with.I do a lot of international travel photography and I'm not the easiest person to guide because I like to go to places very few other people go.

I do a lot of international travel photography and I'm not the easiest person to guide because I like to go to places very few other people go. But I must say that Heba prepared a very thorough itinerary for me in four cities, and the best guide of all was Mona. I was with her throughout Aswan and Luxor, and she was the perfect person for me. Her English is outstanding, and she has a terrific personality. She's full of enthusiasm and knowledge, and always went out of her way to help me accomplish my goals. Our driver Alaa in Aswan was also very helpful in arranging to ship everything I bought while there, and Islam in Luxor was also great. I highly recommend contacting Heba for any type of trip to Egypt that you want.I was fortunate to have ended up on a tour with Heba by chance and had no idea where I was going to or what to expect. I made my booking late at night with an unrelated tour company and had been told by them that this company was the best one to go with. As that's what every tour salesperson says...
I was fortunate to have ended up on a tour with Heba by chance and had no idea where I was going to or what to expect. I made my booking late at night with an unrelated tour company and had been told by them that this company was the best one to go with. As that's what every tour salesperson says, I was doubtful I would have such a nice experience but I was pleasantly surprised. Heba has great English and has a strong understanding of the history behind the sights she took us to. She acted as our photographer and was kind and personable the whole time. I felt this was fair value for money and I would do tours with this company again. Adam - New Zealand.My mom, friend, and I were in Egypt for almost a week.

My mom, friend, and I were in Egypt for almost a week. Luxor was our last stop and it was the best part of our trip. Luxor was amazing on its own, but our guide Mona was what put this part of our trip over the top. Mona was knowledgeable and fun and full of information about the temples we saw and Egypt itself. She was hands down the best guide we had in our time in Egypt as well as in all of my other travels to other countries as well. This was a great end to our trip and I would highly recommend her.Islam picked us up at the airport with a sign with my name on it. He waited patiently as our plane was 2 hours late.

Islam picked us up at the airport with a sign with my name on it. He waited patiently as our plane was 2 hours late. He drove us on a tour of Luxor to the west and east banks. The car was new and clean. He was polite and kind. He knew his way around without needing GPS. He gave us water, juice and sugar cane drinks. He picked out a nice restaurant for lunch overlooking the Nile River. He drove safe and cautiously with a nice variety of tunes on the radio. At each stop he gave us a recommended amount of time that we should spend there. We had his number and could message him on WhatsApp when we were heading out to the car. Islam always made pleasant conversation and kept checking with us to be sure that we were happy and well taken care of. We were very pleased with Islam as our driver. Please request islam. You’ll be glad you did. Thanks again for a great experience in Luxor!Our tour through Luxor and the surrounding area was amazing with Heba.

Our tour through Luxor and the surrounding area was amazing with Heba. We only spent two days with her, but that experience was unforgettable. We visited Valley of the Kings, Luxor Temple, Colossi of Memnon - just to name a few. Heba did an amazing job at explaining all the stories and history of events that happened at each site. We were so impressed with her services. She was prompt every morning and explained our itinerary very well. I would highly recommend Heba and her husband for any Egypt tours you want to plan. They offer it all!
