Great experience
The program is very well organized. The Mo guide was five stars! He knows the Egyptian history and culture well, explains very interestingly, is attentive and very friendly. The boat, although not luxurious, is well preserved and the staff is super helpful and available. The surprises in the room with the bath towels arrangements were epic! The kitchen staff was unbeatable in cooking more vegetarian dishes! The agency couldn't have been more professional.

Wonderful experience
The sites were incredible! The history and monuments are amazing! The Dahabiya atmosphere was very relaxing, we felt at home. Food was homemade and great. Our guide Ahmed was very helpful, giving us history insights and tips on how to navigate the cities. Highly recommended

Girls trip to Egypt
The trip was truly immaculate. We traveled as a group of three young female travelers and I felt completely safe the entire time. The boat was great and kept clean. The kitchen staff were very friendly and helpful with my allergies. Egypt can be a very overwhelming country especially as a young female traveler but Hany our booking contact kept us appraised of expectations, making it very easy to find our guides and drivers. Our guide Ahmed Sliem made the trip absolutely magical. He ensured we were comfortable throughout the journey, was super knowledgeable on the sights we were seeing, and made absolutely sure we had everything we needed both on and off the boat. My friends and I were super scared of getting scammed but Ahmed made sure to advise us of stores that were worth our time, let us know what prices were fair, and helped us negotiate a fair price.

Trip of a life time to Egypt.
My family and I just returned from an amazing vacation trip to Egypt perfectly organized by Luxor and Aswan Travel. From the planning phase to continuous onsite guidance through airport frenzies and hotel check-ins, to help with rebooking of canceled return flights when our airline failed us, the level of attention to detail and commitment to service is just unparalleled. Needless to say that our trip to Cairo and our Dahabiya cruise from Luxor to Aswan were just spectacular, and our Egyptology guide Ahmed was simply the best. So, look no further than LAT if you plan your trip of a life time to wonderful Egypt.

Wonderful Trip with a Wonderful Guide!
Our trip was wonderful. Our guide for most of the trip was Ahmed Sliem. His knowledge and kindness made the trip 100x what it would be without a guide. He provided excellent advice for the best way to enjoy the sites and was very flexible with optional itinerary items. Bonus: he took great photos of us at all the sites!!

Great trip, five star guide.
Everything about this was fabulous. Pick up's on time, clean comfy room, super friendly staff and really good food! But our guide really made this trip extra wonderful. Dr. Ashraf was so patient, and knowledgeable. We marveled at his fluency in reading the hieroglyphics and bringing each site to life for us. He even went above and beyond to show us things of particular personal interest that we asked about. He is a 5 star guide for sure.

Nile River Cruise - Luxor to Aswan - just do it !
If a Nile cruise is on your Bucket List - do it, that is all I can say.
Just do not expect a relaxing holiday - up early for all the trips.
I have just done it with TUI - no problems at all.
Currency - take lots of $1 dollar bills or euro's, everyone seemed to want a dollar. They will take any currency, I got some Egyptian Pounds at the airport, problem is they were all 250 notes and really wanted smaller, toilets etc were 10 - 15 Egyptian or a dollar.
Make sure you have a pen on the flight - have to fill in a card for immigration.
Luxor - we moored right across from Luxor Temple - what a sight.
We went on organised trips to Valley of the Kings, Luxor Temple.
There is no point me posting photos they won't do justuce to what you see.
You could do Luxor on your own, off of the boat, walk across to Luxor Temple then once inside walk down Sphinx Alley, 3Km to the Al Karnak temple.
The Luxor Museum and Mummification museum are within walking distance.
We also ended up with a carriage ride around Luxor, cost 300 egyptian pounds for an hour, went down the back streets to see where the locals lived, a few shops where the driver got a discount, he was up front about it.
Then down to Aswan with a stop at two temple's on the way.
At Aswan we went on a tour of the High Dam and another temple.
But the highlight would be a trip down to Abu Simbel. Okay, we were up at half three and did not get there until half eight, coach left at half four. But wow, to think they moved the temple from what is now the lake bed.

Egypt, Jordan Custom Private Tour
We wanted to do a last minute trip before the New Year. Hany prepared an amazing tailor made itinerary. Our private tour included Cairo: Great Pyramids of Giza, Sphinx, the Valley Temple, Sakkara, Memphis, The Old Egyptian Museum, The Citadel of Salah El Din, and Khan El Khalili Bazaars. Luxor: Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Nile Cruise (Ship was La Fayan which was very nice) to Luxor West Bank, Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut, and Colossi of Memmon. Sail to Esna: Edfu Temple, Kom Ombu Temple, Crocodile Museum. Sail to Aswan: Temple of Philae, Unfinished Obelisk, Aswan High Dam, bird watching, Aswan Botanical Gardens, and a visit to a Nubian village. Amman Jordan: Petra, Wadi Rum, Dead Sea, Mt. Nebo, and Madaba. The guides and drivers were exceptional! Our tour guide for Cairo was Armeni, Luxor/Aswan was Safwat, and Jordan was Abdullah. We felt very safe and taken cared of the entire time. Hany checked in on us to make sure we were satisfied throughout the entire trip. He was available 24/7 and responded to my messages quickly. I highly recommend using Hany and Luxor & Aswan Travel, you will not be disappointed. We will use them again for our next trip to see the Red Sea and Abu Simbel. Thank you Hany and your team for my trip of a lifetime!

Great relaxing and enjoyable trip
The communication was fast and they answered all my questions before doing the payment. They organized the flights from Cairo to Luxor and from Aswan to Cairo (fixed route). They provided our boarding passes between 24 hrs before the flight. Unfortunately they do not adjust the flights in case that you would like to return to another city after the cruise, like Hurghada instead of Cairo.
Arriving at Luxor there was already a person waiting for me and my wife to take us to the cruise.
Every day we had a tour guide and a driver waiting for us, with the entrance tickets ready. We started every day with breakfast at 7 am to be early At the temples The rooms in the cruise were clean and quite comfortable to relaxt, as well as the common areas. The food was delicious and abundant, only the drinks were not included (only during the breakfast the coffee and tea was included).
Unfortunately the Wifi on boai was not included (10 USD per day), fortunately we bought a local SIM card with enough internet (18 GB for 16 EUR with the provider Vodafone).
We had a long delay on the flight back to Cairo, but Egyptair took care of it and we could catch our final flight to Hurghada.
I can recommend it for families, because they take care of all logistics. I wish you could request adjustments in the flights start and end point.
