    Continue to Deir el-Bahari for a private guided visit to Hatshepsut temple. Built in the mid-15th century BC, this striking temple blends harmoniously into the limestone cliffs from which it is partly carved. It served dual purposes: the main east-west axis as the sanctuary of Amun-Ra’s barque, and the north-south axis representing the pharaoh’s life cycle from coronation to rebirth.

    After lunch at a local restaurant, transfer to Luxor Airport for your flight back to Cairo. Upon arrival, you will be met and transferred to your hotel for overnight stay.

We recently booked a family tour, and they made our entire trip smooth, enjoyable, and completely stress-free. Traveling with both a senior and a young child can often present logistical challenges, but the team handled everything with incredible care, making the whole experience nice and easy for everyone in our group. Our itinerary included visits to the Pyramids, two fascinating museums, and the vibrant local market—and every single stop went exceptionally well.

He managed to navigate us around the city during low-traffic windows, meaning we never had to waste time waiting in long lines. Beyond his expertise, his kindness and flexibility were unmatched. We originally booked for a group of 5 to 6 people, but due to the price, the others backed out, leaving just two of us. He was incredibly accommodating with the changes, and never made us feel like a burden. Honestly, he is worth every single penny and definitely not expensive for the quality and amount of things we were able to fit in given such a short trip. We spent about 3-4 hours at each site- never rushed and really enjoyed getting to know Moh.

We had such an incredible tour with Mohamed. His knowledge at all the sites was invaluable and we learnt so much. If you plan to visit the pyramids you are wasting your time doing so without a tour guide like Mohamed. He and his driver always picked us up on time, he was informative (without overloading us with too much history or assuming any prior knowledge of Ancient Egypt). His local knowledge meant we always had a cold drink of bottled water and had some delicious lunches. Our tour also included a visit to the Citadel and Old Cairo (Coptic Cairo) and they were certainly a must do in your tour with Mohamed. I will definitely be recommending him to friends and family.

On my first day in Egypt, I was collected from my hotel and spent an amazing time visiting the pyramids of Giza with Samir and a very knowledgeable specialist guide. It was an awesome experience, the guide (Rad) was informative and friendly. Samir kindly dropped me off afterwards to my hotel in Cairo. Thank you Samir of Mr Egypt Only tours

| Outstanding tour by Mohamed

We had such an incredible tour with Mohamed. His knowledge at all the sites was invaluable and we learnt so much. If you plan to visit the pyramids you are wasting your time doing so without a tour guide like Mohamed. He and his driver always picked us up on time, he was informative (without overloading us with too much history or assuming any prior knowledge of Ancient Egypt). His local knowledge meant we always had a cold drink of bottled water and had some delicious lunches. Our tour also included a visit to the Citadel and Old Cairo (Coptic Cairo) and they were certainly a must do in your tour with Mohamed. I will definitely be recommending him to friends and family.
