Nice guide
Nice guide, her english is good and there is room for a joke in between. It's a long trip but fortunately we didn't stay unnecessarily long at sights.

Beautiful excursion
The trip was very nice, the tour guide Shaban did his job very well. The trip planning was very thoughtful and you had plenty of time everywhere to see everything. There was a lot of interesting information and the guide's German was very understandable

Day in Luxor from hurgada
Very nice day in Luxor which starts very early in the morning (3h30 departure from the hotel). I thought the ride was going to be difficult but finally it does, the Mini bus is relatively comfortable, two drivers are planned, good driving, several stops on the way and back in order to stretch , fresh water distribution during the ride. A correct restaurant break buffet type is planned , it is necessary to plan 10€ per person because the crossing is by boat on the Nile to get there. The day is definitely worth it especially when you have a good guide like Shadia. She speaks very well in French. The historical account of the different places visited that it presents us is fascinating. Karnak and the Valley of Kings are impressive. Do not hesitate to leave a tip (custom here) to Shadia because she does not claim one but she deserves it.
