Journey Through Karnak: Guided by Ereen, Driven by Tamer
Flyer04737476408,,Jan 12, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00An unforgettable journey through Karnak with Ereen & Tamer Visiting the Karnak Temple in Luxor was truly the highlight of our trip to Egypt. The sheer scale and grandeur of the temple complex left us in awe—from the towering hypostyle hall with its massive columns to the sacred lake and intricate hieroglyphs that tell stories thousands of years old. What made the experience even more special was our guide, Ereen. Her knowledge of Egyptian history and mythology was exceptional, and she brought the temple to life with fascinating stories and insights. Ereen had a wonderful way of explaining complex details in a clear and engaging manner, making the history feel vivid and accessible. She also knew the best spots for photos and helped us appreciate details we might have overlooked on our own. We also want to give a special mention to our driver, Tamer. Navigating Luxor can be hectic, but Tamer made the journey smooth, safe, and comfortable. His professionalism and warm hospitality added to the overall experience, ensuring we could relax and enjoy every moment of our day. ✨ Highlights of our visit: • Walking through the Great Hypostyle Hall with its 134 colossal columns. • Learning about the temple’s evolution over centuries from Ereen’s expert storytelling. • The seamless travel experience thanks to Tamer’s excellent driving. Overall, our visit to Karnak Temple was not just a sightseeing trip—it was a deeply enriching journey into Egypt’s ancient past. With Ereen and Tamer guiding us, it became an unforgettable memory we’ll cherish forever

5.00We had such a great time with Mansuor learning all about the Karnak and Luxor Temples! The afternoon tour was great to see Karnak during sunset and Luxor lit up so beautifully. Mansuor was an expert at engaging who made learning fun and easy. We gained a ton of knowledge that carried through our other tours throughout Egypt. He was a huge highlight for our entire trip and we are grateful we had the chance to learn from him! I thought Luxor Egypt Tours was the best of them all. We had multiple horrible Emo Tours in Cairo and Aswan, so I'm glad we booked with this great group for our entire time in Luxor!
It was a very good travel agency.

5.00I learned the day before that my flight would be delayed for an hour and a half due to airline reasons. They agreed to delay the start of the tour and were very conscientious in their handling of the situation. It was an English-speaking guide, but I am satisfied with the very good guide, who is easy to understand, well versed in history and warm. It was amazing to see the city, beautiful scenery and Aurora in my own eyes.

5.00This private half-day East Bank tour with guide Emad was a great way to see Luxor and Karnak Temples without feeling rushed. The hotel pickup and drop-off were smooth, and having an Egyptologist guide made a big difference—clear explanations, helpful context, and just the right amount of detail. Luxor Temple was impressive, especially with the historical background explained on site. The scale of Karnak is incredible, and Emad helped make sense of it all. Overall, a well-organized, efficient tour that’s perfect if you want a solid overview of Luxor’s East Bank in a short amount of time.
Late afternoon tour of Karnak and Luxor temples

4.00Our guide Sayed was punctual, passionate, and kept us to a tight schedule. We spent 1.5 hours at Karnak temple, coming at 3:30pm which was perfect for golden hour, but we would recommend going a bit earlier to have more time in the temple. 2 hours would be a minimum, in our opinion. Having to start our tour later meant having to rush a bit more than we would have liked. We got to Luxor temple at 5:30pm, in time for nightfall, which was a cool new way to experience a temple, although if you really want to see the engravings in better detail, you should go in the daytime.
It can be better a experience

4.00we're picked up 1 hour later than the normal pick-up time. That's resulted in loosing the sunlight in the temple ( which was Luxor Temple). The guide was so polite. she was not into the details of the temple. Rather she gave brief info and leave us in the temples. Overall, it was not bad, slightly over the average service.

4.00Company confirmed booking right away and responded quickly anytime I messaged them via WhatsApp. Pickup right on time. Guide was very knowledgable and provided a lot of detail but had a somewhat mechanical delivery and wanted to go through her presentation at her quick pace even when we asked her to slow down to take some Pictures. Both temples are excellent. Would suggest starting in late afternoon. to see Karnak temple first in the daylight and then go to Luxor around dusk to see it in daylight and then at night since it is open till 8. Must see Luxor at nifht. Allow about 2 hours for each.
Step into the Old Testament times
