A luxurious trip to the wonders of Luxor

The whole tour was nicely planned and executed in a way that we enjoyed and saw the best things in a good time and perfect timing. I loved the vast knowledge of my tour guide and nice professional behavior, which made this tour a perfect memory for us

Perfect VIP tour

Whatever with this tour is about entities like punctual, planned, polite, professional. From the first moment I booked my tour, the management contacted me and did the whole planning nicely. The driver was at the hotel exactly on time and took us to the airport to go Luxor, where we were well received by a nice tour guide ( Mr. Baseem) and he planned and also did some suggestion for the whole tour to avoid delays/ crowdedness and to see the whole important things without spending time and money more than needed. We visited the palace of Hatshepsut and 3 tombs of the valley of kings, visited cotton weaving workshops and then had a very nice boat riding on Nile and lunch in an island as per his suggestion. Seeing Carnac temples and Luxor temple was a magnificent experience which was even better listening to him and with his vast knowledge he answered to my many questions. We then had a good rest at a coffeeshop ( again based on his suggestion) which was refreshing before the sound and light show at Carnac. After having an Egyptian food, we went to airport and came to Cairo at about 1 am , where the driver was waiting to take us to the hotel. What else would you need in a VIP trip like this?

Great plan from Cairo to Luxor in one day!!!!

Perfect plan for anyone get it all done in one day if you don’t want to take a train or drive to Luxor We definitely recommend to get your self water and snacks… lots of walking but worth it we love it…. Our friend Ramon was very helpful and friendly. He was very knowledgeable about all the different places. As a teacher this was a very great opportunity to learn about these things to teach my students. Ramon was not pushy in any way. I highly recommend him over a huge tour bus.

Once in a lifetime day in Luxor

So, our booking started off a little stressful. We check availability and booked for a Saturday, full day trip (flights and guide included). After paying, we received a text message stating that Saturday was unavailable and could we do Sunday instead...we could not, because we were in Cairo for my husbands work and he had a work event planned that evening. So, after a lot of back and forth with the agency, and having to "upgrade" to first class flights, (due to availability) we were able to move around some other plans, and do the trip on Friday. Once the actual trip started, everything was amazing. We were picked up at our hotel on time, met at the airport in Luxor by Remon and went on to have an absolutly amazing day. Remon was extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful, patient and so helpful throughout the day. He made some additional suggestions for other things to do, since our flight back to Cairo wasn't until evening time. He even dropped us off at the Luxor airport with take out dinner! This is a day that exceeded our expections over and over! I highly suggest spending a day in Luxor if you have the opportunity to do so and using Remon if possible! I'd suggest reaching out to the agency and checking on flight availibilty before booking if you have a tight schedule. We were booking very last minute, so I don't blame the agency for the lack of flight options, but it would have been helpful to know our options before booking and paying. But, I'm so glad that they worked with us and we were able to make it happen because it was truly a day I'll never forget!

Top Notch!

Remon was WONDERFUL! He gave so much detail and history. He was warm, personable and informative. For someone who likes to explore, he allowed me enough time to do the things I wanted on my own. He was willing to ( and did) answer any question I asked. I strongly recommend him. The balloon ride is a must do. If you must spread it over a couple of days, do so. Doing g the tour of both banks and the balloon ride was a lot for one day. Remon, however, made it fly by.

Great trip in Luxor

Remon was an awesome guide! Very thorough explanations of every site we visited and made accomodations when we needed to. He gave us plenty of time to enjoy each destination as we wanted to and had great answers/explanations to all of my questions. I really enjoyed the entire experience!

Excellent

Excellent tour. Remon, our guide, was very knowledgeable and helped us see all the important sites we wanted to visit in Luxor. Would highly recommend visiting Luxor and this tour.

A trip highlight!

This tour was a highlight of my trip to Egypt. A great way to see Luxor highlights on a day trip. Nermeen Melad was the BEST guide. She was very knowledgeable about both Pharonic history and modern life in Luxor (she’s a local!), and was wonderful company for the day. Highly recommend!

Big day! Saw everything

Great tour! Flights, drivers and everything was handled for us. The day was very long but that's because they fit everything in. We had a wonderful time!
