2 of the best hidden gems in Egypt.
We had an absolutely amazing day with our guide Hesham. These 2 temples really are the most amazing temples you can Vossy while staying in Luxor. It’s a long drive, but totally worth it and you basically end up with the temples to yourself. The best examples of colour and Intricate hieroglyphs you will find. Thanks so much Hesham for bringing the temple walls to life for us!

I think everything was just great! Highly recommend!
Excellent guide - deep knowledge, respect for clients, politeness and friendliness. Thank you very much. Unfortunately, I do not remember the name of the guide (February 10). There was a great minibus with air conditioning, a large supply of cold water. I think everything was just great! Highly recommend!

Hassle free day trip to the most beautiful temples.
This was one of the awesome day tours with did with Magic Carpet. From start to finish the tour was perfect. If you see nothing else in Egypt - see Abydos. The colors and carvings will amaze you. Our guide Rabie had so much interesting information to share with us, it made the visit so interesting. The driver, Mahmoud, negotiated the crazy driving with ease. The van that we had was new and clean.

Stunning Temples
Beautiful temples. If you have an extra day and want to see how people live outside Cairo this is a great trip. Our guide was great and showed us several areas in the temples I don't think we would have found (or understood) on our own. It is a lot of time in the car on sometimes bumpy roads - but we enjoyed a break from the chaos of Cairo/Luxor and the rustic scenery. If you're really into history, hieroglyphs, or authentic culture this is a must see. If not, you might want to skip it.

Memorable experiences, worthy for a day!
From Nefertiti Hotel, Luxor, the breakfast box was also included in this tour, no worry to wake up early, prepare it by yourself. The driving was utterly comfortable, in addition to the destinations, the views from the car never let you be bored. The Egyptologist was certainly professional, there were many to learn what would be impossible by the private visit. Indeed, the difficult destinations to arrive especially by the foreign tourists, consequently the treasurable ancient Egyptian heritages that heave into sights are almost the trophies of magnificence. During the tour, just to relax, relying on the native driver and Egyptologist, the day of luxury in Egypt, which is absolutely promised!
