Summary: I had an amazing time guided by Mahmoud. A good balance of stories and independent time. Take the time to travel at your own pace, and marvel at the deep history.

Summary: Highly recommend this half day tour of the West Bank. Maria was so friendly and knowledgeable and very accommodating of our needs. She allowed us to take our time and really enjoy every stop, never making us feel rushed. Her demeanor really made the experience more enjoyable. We ended the day with an amazing lunch (also Maria’s recommendation). In my experience sometimes with the included lunches you sacrifice quality but this food was truly top notch. If we had spent more time in Luxor, definitely would have booked more tours with her and her agency — very kind and courteous people.
