Honestly I couldn’t say anything bad about this your. It was truly amazing Hassan Capo was our tour guide and it was perfect! He knew exactly where to go to wait in the least amount of lines took amazing pictures and videos and was super patient with us the whole day. He was very well educated and passionate about Egyptian history and didn’t feel pressured or rushed once. We took many tours and this is by far our favorite guide and tour. Thank you!

Amazing experience. The hot air balloons are wonferful. The session had to be canceled due to the weather but they were able to offer us a tour the next day. Ragab was a friendly guide for French people who allowed us to discover the monuments of Luxor.

Most certainly Dr. Mo is one of the most informative and knowledgeable guides I have ever had. He has a wealth of knowledge and I would recommend him & the tour. Maybe the lunch was not worth the upsell of $35 but I was informed of the price and what to expect in advance. However, overall a great tour and great guide and I would do it again & recommend.

This tour was my 1st hot air balloon ride & what a great choice. Overall very safe & professional, they take it serious. Was an amazing view and relaxing with a smooth very easy landing! Worth the time & money

Excellent tour,Hassan my guide had done a Phd at University on Egyptology,so was very knowledgeable and explained the information in a concise and easy manner. He took his time,did not rush,one of the best tours I have ever done. Totally recommend him and the tour

This is one activity you should no skip if visiting Luxor. It has terrific view, our operator(Dr. Mo tours) made it a painless experience, from pick to delivery back to hotel was well organized. The flight was amazing and I think we got the best views of Hatshepsut Temple and surrounding valleys. The landing was way better than a plane, thanks to Omar for that.

It was great day. Excellent guide. For us it makes a huge difference visit the places with a guide. The lunch in a small boat was delicious and special.

Fantastic day in Luxor that started pretty early with the baloon ride but believe me, it’s completely worth it and as safe as it can be. The the Valley of the Kings and Queens are AMAZING! Finally the temples of Karnak and Luxor are something you should see at least once in a Lifetime. All this with de experience and expertise of Dr. Mo that’s actually a PHD egyptologist. He will make your tour unforgettable, trust me.

My sister and I did the full day tour with Hassan and it was incredible! He was extremely knowledgeable about Egyptian history and knew all the best spots to see everything. Lunch was also great. Highly recommend a tour with Hassan!

This was an excellent tour. Hassan was full of information and so attentive. The valley of the kings were unbelievable. The heat was 45 degrees however l, so I would suggest coming at another time of year other than August if possible. Hassan was so good at stopping for breaks out of the heat.

Hany was a great guide!! Had a fantastic time and Hany was very knowledgeable of the temples we visited, plus he told them in great entertaining ways! Definitely recommend

WOOOOOW! What an amazing tour! This was our first time to Luxor and egypt in general and this tour exceeded every expectation. Put your guide Shaimaa was the absolute best! She gave us wonderful information all day long whether it be at the temple or driving around her home. She made sure that we we very well taken care of and cared for. We loved how she gave us guided tours as well as let us roam free. She even gave us the best advice as well as made sure we didn’t die of heat. Truly truly and unforgettable experience. We felt like a part of a family. If you book this tour you will love it we are sure!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Dr. Mo. He is extremely knowledgeable and we were pleasantly surprised to find out that he is actually an Egyptologist and lecturer. We managed to do all that was highlighted in the package, PLUS a delicious authentic Egyptian lunch. He is very personable and a pleasure to be around. He has a great sense of humour which made the tour a lot more fun. We would highly recommend this tour and in particular Dr. Mo’s company to anyone.

My family and I, inclusive of my 8 year old and 15 old sons were on a tour with Dr. Mo as our guide. We were coerced to give a 5star review while still on the tour during the 2nd stop. I have requested removal of that review and want to ensure an accurate review as given to ensure this happens to no one else. A few days prior to our tour Dr.Mo first attempted to tell us entrance fees were not included via WhatsApp despite the tour Clearly stating 3 tombs were included. Once I responded he then said the entrance fees would be included. We were picked up from the airport by our driver who seemed nice. We picked up our guide, Dr. Mo on the side of the road. Our first stop was the colossi of Memnon, he gave us a brief history and took 2 group photos of us before taking us to the next stop, the valley of the kings. Dr. Mo told us we could add the valley of the queens to see Nefertiti for an additional $25 PER PERSON as it would be another location on the opposite side but we declined and said we were interested in the tour we paid for and adding King Tut’s tour, which we knew was another admission fee of about $10. Dr. Mo said he would be taking us to an Alabaster place. He explained the importance of Alabaster to Egypt. Once we arrived they showed us how they turned Alabaster into other items. After the demonstration the gentleman showed us his store where the pricing started astronomical. They didn’t want us to leave and ended up dramatically dropping the prices. Once we arrived to the Valley of the Kings Dr. Mo showed us the map of the valley of the Kings and explained the reason for the differences in the sizes of the different tombs, including King Tut’s. He then stated he would get our included “2 tickets” and we could get our king Tut tickets at the booth if we still wanted to see King Tut. I pulled out my phone to check as I knew there were 3, not 2 tombs included. My husband asked him to confirm 2, he said yes. I quickly pulled up the tour and showed him the inclusions and said there should be 3, 4 total if we did King Tut. He then responded “Yes 3, 4 total.” We started to head towards the ticket booth but This is where everything turned for the worse. My husband and cousin called me back over and said Dr.Mo stated there would be an additional $25 per person, at this point I thought they were referring to the pickup and drop off at the airport which we were told about ahead of time and reminded of via WhatsApp the day before. They said he was saying this would be additional for visiting king Tut’s tomb and paid to him as a charge by the company. I scrubbed the tour details and exclusions prior to booking but I still pulled it back up while waiting for him ti come back from the booth as this was not stated anywhere. At this point one of our group members had already paid the $10 entrance fee for king tut entry but we were upset with the bait and switch method being used. Once Dr.Mo returned I had him clarify to the entire group what the fee was for. He then stated we needed to pay another $25 per person, in addition to the entrance fee because we would be adding something. We were not adding an additional stop on the tour as the tomb is in the same location as the other Tombs we were already seeing. He said it was the company policy. I asked him where it was stated and he said it wasn’t on there (viator) but it’s on TripAdvisor, I showed him it was not. My husband asked him to show us the policy and where it was written because of the principal. What is the fee for? Why weren’t we told about it before now? He said it’s his fee as a guide and it’s the company policy, but said the company would be willing to discount the fee to $20 per person. My husband then said we would be willing to go in the tomb alone to which he replied is “not allowed, it would be breaking the rules.” I then told him I didn’t agree, it should be stated prior to arrival and again showed him where the exclusion said the admission fee and mentioned nothing about an additional tour guide fee for seeing king tut. We also noticed he kept saying it was the company, not him. My husband asked him to state the name of the company knowing the response, to which he replied “Dr. MO’s tours.” He already mentioned he was the person messaging me from the company contact, I then pointed out he was Dr. Mo and therefore it was his company. At this point he denied it being his company and said it was “a different Dr. Mo, he was Mohammed and Dr. Mo was not Mohammed. At this moment he knew our entire group was unsatisfied and he agreed to not charge the unknown fee, but only if we gave him five 5 star reviews. My husband quickly said there were only 4 adults, my son is tall but he is only 15 and does not have an account. He responded with the parent could do it and wanted a handshake. Completely tired of the back and forth my husband said fine and Dr. Mo asked for everyone’s word. Once we received all of our tickets we got on a cart and went to the tombs. He was clearly upset and didn’t speak to us or give any narration during this short ride or walk to the tombs. Once we arrived, to our surprise he said “These are the 3 tombs I recommend and that one is King Tut’s,” as he pointed them out. “You all can walk around freely and I will meet you over there. I’ll give you 30mins”…then walked off! What? No explanations, no history or reasoning for those three tombs. We later found out guides aren’t even allowed inside the tombs by overhearing another guide tell his group. We later saw a sign at the meet up spot as well. All along he knew he couldn’t even go inside yet claimed we needed to pay him, per person, for the added tomb explanation as a guide. Not to mention it took 10 minutes max to visit king Tut’s tomb, and that amount of time was only because we took pictures. Once we all met up Dr. Mo said he would take a 5 minute rest, this would be a good time to post all our five star reviews. At this point we had only completed two stops, and still had quite a bit of time left. He then asked us all if we had posted our reviews, we each showed him. When it was my husbands turn he told him it took longer as he was told to do both his and our son’s but when lifted his phone to show him he said he didn’t need to show him as he trusted him. Once everyone was finished he told us we could continue. Dr. Mo then told us we would head to Karnak and said we would drive past the Obelisk of Queen Hapshetsut to see it from the outside. He then said we could let him know whether we wanted to go inside. Of course we all wanted to go as this was included in the tour we paid for. Once we arrived he said he was fasting and had not been able to eat or drink, he said the sun was hard for him so he would explain from the shaded visitor center instead of at the obelisk. We all perfectly understood and had no problem with where it was explained, we do however feel he should not have booked the tour if competing all of the activities would be a problem. From this point Dr. Mo offered us to take a boat to Karnak instead of driving for an additional $25 per person, at this point we declined as we wouldn’t save any time? It was extremely hot, and everything felt like an attempt to get more money. Once we returned to the car he said it would be an hour for us to arrive at Karnak, he would take us there, give us the option to pay $25 per person if we wanted to see Luxor temple, then take us to the airport. I then asked when we would eat lunch as lunch and water was supposed to be included, it was 2pm and we had received neither. Although we weren’t starving yet this was not mentioned when he was explaining the rest of our itinerary. Dr. Mo immediately took offense and said the food was traditionally served as dinner so we wouldn’t get it until after. He also said If we were hungry he could take us to a restaurant for a traditional Egyptian lunch and we would pay, you guessed it, about $25 per person. I told him I was simply asking a question as it wasn’t mentioned and everyone declined paying anything extra. Once we were closer to Karnak Dr. Mo said he would actually see it the place was open as he feared we may be hungry and wanted to make sure the kids ate. We ate lunch in the car and once a few minutes went by he said he was taking us to an essential oil place for 30 minutes as it was too hot outside. Mind you, we previously told him we didn’t care to go to the essential oil place but we no longer had the desire to go back and forth. Surprisingly, the essential oil place turned out to be one of the biggest highlights of our tour as the service from the people there was excellent. We told Dr. Mo we needed to use the restroom, he said we could use the toilet at Karnak. Once we arrived he rushed inside first. As we went to enter there were men blocking the entrance telling us we needed to pay them to use the toilet. They had no uniforms, they were not security. Mind you we’re all low on cash with all of the water and snacks we needed to purchase along the tour to stay hydrated and maintain energy in 100 degree weather. Plus, the purchases we made as a group at both the Alabaster place and Essential oil shop. My husband walked past them and took my son who couldn’t hold it. Once they came out the men again told him he needed to pay them, my husband told him to talk to his guide The rest of us held out and decided to wait until we got to the airport. Dr. Mo did explain Karnak and took another group picture. He then gave us more free time and told him to meet him when we were ready to leave. Once the tour was over I told him I needed to use the restroom and we wanted to get straight to the airport. He asked me if I wanted to use that one before leaving but I told him I didn’t have cash to give them nor did I want to. Never did he offer to ensure we were able to use the toilet and this was not a policy of the facility. As a guide, he should have made sure we were taken care of as all of our previous guides did. Finally, on our way to the airport the guide tells us the company says only 2 of our 5 reviews were posted. We showed him all of the reviews as we posted them. My husband reminded him my sons review was posted from the same phone and ip. He insisted someone else do do it which would have caused the same problem. Once my husband sternly explained it would do the same thing he finally said it was fine and took us to the airport. As a group we felt held hostage for reviews and this was the most terrible tour experience we have ever had. In a nutshell, the sites were amazing but please utilize another company as our trip was soured with the terrible memory of someone attempting to take advantage of us as tourists. We did not receive the detailed information we know we should have whole at the valley of the kings and can’t get that experience back. We had to google the significance of the tombs we went inside as our guide didn’t bother to explain other than King Tut.

I wasn’t able to take the balloon ride due to bad weather. The Egyptian government cancels for safety reason when the weather isn’t good. Although I wasn’t able to have the adventure I was able to get fully refunded within a reasonable time with little fuss. Dr Mo was very professional and kindly refunded me. I took a previous tour earlier in the week with his group and highly recommend!!
