Unique travelling experience in the heart of ancient Egypt
That was a once in lifetime journey through the history of one of the most importanr civilizations. Luxor & Aswan team had it all perfectly planned, the highlight being the tour guide himself. Muhamed is an egyptiologist who combines deep knowledge with a unique teaching charisma: both my 13 and 11 y.o. kids were fascinated by the stories & hieroglyphics explanations and despite some necessary early wake up calls, there was no complain! I only regret we did not have enough time to visit Abu Simbel. Maybe next time :-)

Fantastic experience, great service and attention to detail
We had a wonderful trip with Luxor and Aswan Travel. We were traveling with two parents and three kids, ages 10, 12 & 14. The ship was lovely and the cabins were very comfortable. The food was excellent, including many, many delicious options for vegetarians. Probably the best part of our trip though, was our excellent guide, Mr. Lamey. He arranged everything for transportation, for seeing the sites, for extras like sailing on the last day. He was very knowledgeable, very accommodating, very good with kids. I highly recommend him and also Luxor and Aswan Travel. They even helped us arrange for our COVID PCR tests on board the ship so we would have them in time for our flight. Communication before and throughout the trip was excellent.

Book now to make your trip easier!
We did this tour as part of our trip to Egypt and it was amazing! Do not hesitate to book through them. Mohammad was our guide and he was so helpful and had a lot of knowledge, we learned so much from him! He helped plan all the activities we wanted to do, even if they were last minute. They went so far as to help my fiancé get his haircut at a local barber. Everything went smoothly and he was very accommodating . Definitely recommend this company and Mohammad!

Great Experience!
We had a wonderful experience on the 4 day, 3 night cruise from Aswan to Luxor. Everything was perfect, from the care we received even before the trip, to the ship, the visits and tours during the day and our guide. The travel company exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much to Hany, who helped us plan our trip and Ehab, our guide, who both made sure everything was perfect.

Superb travel experience
We decided last minute to travel to Egypt for the holidays. Hany our tour operator was extremely helpful and very swift with his responses to our inquiries. He advised us to book the river cruise from Aswan to Luxor on the "Sun Goddess" which we were very grateful for because we ended up on one of the most modern ships in their fleet. All 30 cabins are suites (a sort of living room with a separate bedroom section) with a balcony. The service and the food during the cruise was excellent. My husband, daughter and I had our personal tour guide for 4 days. Galal was absolutely fabulous. He was not just extremely knowledgeable about the history of Ancient Egypt but also a lot of fun to be with. He made out Egypt trip an unforgettable experience.
I can highly recommend Luxor and Aswan Travel if you are looking for a hassle-free, convenient and superb travel experience.

Best Tour Guide We've Ever Had!
We've done a lot of traveling and have had a lot of tour guides, and our guide George Edward was the BEST we've ever had in any of our travels. He took us from Aswan to Luxor on a luxury cruise. He truly went above and beyond, while most other tour guides do the bare minimum. He was incredibly knowledgable and passionate, and answered our many history and cultural questions about the sites. He was not pushy in trying to sell us things like many other tour guides are, and did a great job of fending off the many pushy souvenir salesmen. He made our entire experience absolutely seamless and relaxing - a true vacation!

Amazing time with Luxor and Aswan Travel
We spent nearly two weeks touring Egypt—Cairo, Giza, Nile Cruise, Luxor, Aswan, and Abu Simbel. Absolutely everything was well-planned, both of our tour guides (Waled and Hassan) were excellent, and I felt we could trust Hany to figure out any problems or requests. I would highly recommend this tour company for anyone looking to explore Egypt.

George Edward is the Best Tour Guide
To me, the best part of the trip was our tour guide: George Edward. If you book with Luxor & Aswan, or any tour company, make sure to ask for him! He absolutely went above and beyond when guiding us through the trip. George's passion for Egyptology and history is evident when he explains all the sites that are part of the tour. Also, given his experience, he was able to get us access (free) to parts of sites that other tour guides either did not know about, or just did not care to show their clients. We frequently saw other tour guides leave their clients to their own devices and explore various sites while George was always willing to walk us through every room and explain all the history. He definitely seemed like the most knowledgeable guide. Furthermore, he was always very conscious of giving us our own time during our trip so he was never overbearing. I appreciated the way that he also shielded us from some of the aggressive panhandlers and shopkeepers on the streets. He also made sure we never got ripped off by anyone. Whenever there was additional downtime, George always had suggestions for additional things to do/see or places to grab a great meal. I do not think our trip would have been the same without George.
As for the travel agency, I think Luxor & Aswan did an excellent job with logistics. We never had to wait for transfers from one site to another and they handled any problems we had (airline lost our luggage). Furthermore, they were extremely communicative and easy to get in touch with. They vet their vendors and allowed us to have a hassle free trip! 100% recommend Luxor & Aswan for all your planning needs.

Nile Cruise
The Nile cruise I took was really fantastic. The boat they used was really nice, I would recommend asking for one of the nicer boats. My guide (Michael Farah) was 10/10, polite, knowledgeable and a quality guide - ask for him when you book the cruise and make sure you do the hot air balloon ride!

Outstanding honeymoon trip
This company company exceeded my expectations, not only did Hany plan an amazing trip from visiting the pyramids in Giza, to helping with the flight to Aswan visiting Abu Simbel, booking a Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor visiting all the temples and monuments along the way, as well as visiting all the museums that were open, the alabaster mosque so much more. He also scheduled the same driver in each city we visited. The company was generous enough to offer us the hot air balloon ride in luxor as a honeymoon gift because we were on the fence about scheduling it ourselves. The best part of our private tour for our honeymoon trip was having the most outstanding tour guide I have ever had, Shema Esmail, went above and beyond for us the entire 10 day trip. As an Egyptologist she was extremely knowledgeable as well as always helped and took care of us in markets and bazaars. She brought us to her favorite local small businesses to eat the egyptian meals she grew up on.To say I could not imagine having another tour guide would be an under statement because of the friendship my wife and I built with her through out the course of our trip. If anyone is looking for a company to assist them with touring the beautiful country of Egypt please do not hesitate to use this company. I can not thank everyone in this company and the drivers enough for make our honeymoon perfectly flawless.
