Summary: We had a great day exploring Luxor with our guide, Amr from Forever Egypt. He took us to Luxor Temple, Karnak Temple, Queen Hatshepsut’s Temple, and the Valley of the Kings, and shared interesting information about each site. His explanations gave us a solid understanding of the history and significance of the temples and tombs. Amr was friendly, organised, and made sure the day ran smoothly. We appreciated that he managed the logistics well and helped us get around comfortably, especially in the heat. Overall, it was a wonderful,enjoyable and informative tour and a great way to see the main highlights of Luxor.

Summary: Waleed and the Forever Egypt team was spectacular. They took care of every detail so we had a fun, safe and seamless trip. They communicate exceptionally well and follow thru on everything they promise. If you go to Egypt, go with this company (shout out to Amr and Ahmed in particular, who were incredibly knowledgeable and helpful). (As an aside, our family went during the start of the Israel/Iran conflict and felt safe and welcome the entire time. The people are kind and welcoming.)
