Amazing day! Nana is a super guide!
It’s an early start, but super worth it. The van is comfortable, and the knowledge of our super guide Nana was amazing. She really made the trip and answered any questions I had. The food was good and overall I would recommend this trip to anyone! Super day and learned a lot about Ancient Egyptian history in a short space of time!

Great trip
The trip to Luxor was an amazing and unforgettable experience. Everything was very well organized, from transportation to the sightseeing schedule. We visited incredible historical places such as the Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple, and the Temple of Hatshepsut, all of which were truly breathtaking. The guide was very knowledgeable, professional, and explained the history in a clear and interesting way. Thanks to him, we learned a lot and really felt the magic of ancient Egypt. The whole trip was comfortable, safe, and well planned. It was a long day, but absolutely worth it. I highly recommend this Luxor trip to anyone visiting Egypt — it is a must-see experience.

Great trip with a lot of history.
We visited Luxor on a day trip from Hurghada. The excursion was very well organized, and the guide was extremely knowledgeable. Lunch was absolutely delicious and featured authentic Egyptian cuisine. We especially enjoyed the Nile boat trip and the Valley of the Kings. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to immerse themselves in ancient history.

Visit to Luxor
Nana was helpful and had a lot of knowledge about Egyptian antiquity around Luxor. She could very nicely convey with humor the antiquity to the tourists. This was whole trip during day from the starting point from our hotel in Hurghada.

great
Ahmed was a good guide on site. Khalido our general tour guide was kind too.hBeware the cruise isn‘t really optional. Also wear a jacket when they pick u up it will be cold outside and in the car as well. Favorite part was Karnak temple.
