Edfu Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Beautiful vidit to the West Bank, another great discovery of Ancient Egypt in Louxor. Good guide and good driver.

Timely transfers, guide: kind Bernadette who spoke Italian, everything was fine. Polite driver, perhaps the only downside was the stop at the alabaster factory, which was clearly aimed at sales. But even here, there was maximum discretion without the usual aggressive pressure.

Great experience that gave us a comprehensive overview of some of Luxor’s most important historical sites. Our guide was knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating, and we all enjoyed the experience greatly.

Very well guided and informed tour of the west and east bank, gave us more than enough time to see everything at each stop and explained the history in great deal. Would recommend

Ahmed kassem was a very great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, patient and made sure we saw everything. If you’re thinking about doing this tour, I highly recommend! He gave great recommendations and made the day awesome!

Great tour, so much information given and not rushed at all Only myself and partner and our tour guide Ahmed Kassem was amazing and driver and we had a great day food at lunch stop was also amazing Thank you

We did the half day tour in West Bank which was amazing. Our tour guide Salwa was very knowledgeable and explained the rich history in great detail.

Salwa is a wonderful guide, she is very knowledgeable. The driver is safe and on time. I am a solo female traveler and I never feel unsafe in any way being with them. Thanks again for a good day!

They Changed the time and I could not get in touch with them

We had a wonderful half day tour to the valley of the kings and other west bank sites. Amera looked after us and was very knowledgeable. The tomb of Seti and Hatshepsut temple were truly amazing. Would highly recommend the trip and Amera as a guide

Ahmed Kassem is an excellent guide very professional, very kind who knows his subject perfectly I recommend 100%. Very funny and competent and above all very professional it honors Egypt

Salwa has been patient and passionate about the sites that we visited. I have been guided into Habu Temple, Valley of the Queens, Valley of the Workers, Valley of the Nobles, and The Ramesseum, the Mortuary Temple of Ramses II. It turned out to be important to have her with me, because she explained clearly the details and meaning of the wall and ceiling reliefs. She timed entry to spots such that I had space from crowds to take pictures. On my own, I would not have the true appreciation that she learned from many years of study. You might ask for her; she gives you the time and does not cut corners.

Salwa took us round the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut’s temple, Memnon statues and to the alabaster workshop. The tombs were superb (paid extra for Tutankhamun’s) as was the temple. Salwa’s knowledge was good and very interesting. Less good is the alabaster place - they are rip-off masters - but they do have to make an income somehow, and the free drink was most welcome! Emo Tours do this tour and are a very reliable firm! Enjoy it!

Salwa was excellent, very good tour

Shaban was really great at running Mega. It was all relaxed and he was super aligned with us and still showed us all the great sights and explained. Great atmosphere and a beautiful day.

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.
