Aswan-Luxor Cruise
The tour was amazing: the sites, the ship and the guide. We saw all the sites that were part of the itinerary, in increasing order of importance and size. The food and the service onboard were superb. Our guide, Ahmed Sliem, was extraordinary: knowledgeable, kind and extremely helpful at all times.
The main (and only) issue is related to pace: it's really a 2.5-day rather than 4-day cruise, as the ship really starts sailing in the afternoon of Day 2 (the only worthwhile scheduled activity in Day 1 is the Temple of Philae). In the quest of selling "optionals" the scheduled activities start very slow (so pleople are motivated to buy the optionals), and then cram too much at the end (Valley of the Kings, Queen Hapshesut, Colossi, Karnak). Our guide, however, did a lot to fix this issue to the best of his abilities.

Thank you Ahmed Sliem!!
We arrived yesterday from our cruise. Our tour guide was Ahmed Sliem. We had such a good time! It was an amazing experience. Our guide was so kind and always on top of every detail, incluiding making sure we always had water or snacks, or getting us the best prices at the markets. He shared tons of information with us, we learned a lot, we are extremly happy!!! The boat is also very confortable, food was excellent, the staff is very very nice. We would definitly chose them again.

Gran crucero por El Cairo y el Nilo con esta compañía
Mi familia y yo fuimos en un crucero por el Nilo reservado a través de esta agencia. Recomiendo encarecidamente esta empresa! ¡Gracias Hany El Dosouki por cumplir con lo que su empresa anunció! Entregaron todo lo que dijeron. Volamos a Luxor para nuestro crucero y fuimos recibidos justo en la reclamación de equipaje. Nos escoltaron desde allí al crucero. Furgoneta privada era semi nuevo, espacioso para 6 y limpio! Una vez que nos registramos, nuestro guía turístico, Ashraf Al Raafey, se reunió con nosotros para el primer día de excursiones. ¡Mi familia no puede decir suficiente de este hombre! Extremadamente inteligente, amable y muy atento. Algunos de los tours eran abrumadores debido a las grandes cantidades de turistas y vendedores, pero él nos guió perfectamente cada día / noche. Pudimos pasar tiempo en el barco y él estaba más que feliz de pasar parte de su tiempo libre para responder a las preguntas que teníamos sobre Egipto. Estoy tan contento de que reservamos a través de esta agencia y nos dieron Ashraf como nuestro guía / cuidador durante el viaje. Nos trató con respeto y se aseguró de que siempre nos sentíamos seguros y protegidos. Si reservas, por favor pregunta por él, no te equivocarás!
También reservamos una furgoneta privada en El Cairo durante 3 días y nos cuidaron bien. Sahar Kandil era nuestro guía turístico todos los días y lo mismo que Ashraf en servicio. Ella nos hizo sentir como familia desde el momento en que nos recogió en nuestro hotel. Ella es extremadamente brillante y atento. Mi familia y yo tuvimos la gran suerte de que ambos guías nos trataron como familia. ¡No te equivocarás con esta compañía!

Beautiful experience in Egypt
Loved this trip! Especially the Isis temple and Luxor temples and around. I wish we had more time at the Isis temple ! The guide Mo was very knowledgable and it was great to see him also interact with other guides and locals and the friendships and mutual support they share. The boat trip was amazing, the staff were so friendly and kind and the food amazing - a great vegetarian diet! Also loved the massage on the boat and the feeling of peace sailing down the Nile.

Great trip with an even better tour guide!
Our booking started with an online search for a Nile cruise. I discovered Luxor and Aswan Travel and decided to give it a shot. All email traffic went fine, but when I received a payment link without any invoice or summary attached, I started to worry a bit. So we asked for it and received one in an email saying partly in caps lock "your Official VERY DETAILED INVOICE". Personally I was not very pleased with this tone. Also when reconfirming our pick up time and place the evening before departure (I had communicated out hotel address weeks before and hadn't heard anything since then), I all of the sudden got additional instructions although it was me reaching out to the agency. That raised some eyebrows too. However, looking back at the entire trip, I must say everything was perfectly organized and in the end there was no reason to worry. Also the additional instructions for our pick up where not necessary as the guide and driver were right there on time.
We were very happy with our guide Mahmoud. He took care of everything. His knowledge is profound and he is very enthusiastic in sharing everything that he knows about ancient Egypt. He always wanted to make sure he was not forgetting anything interesting to tell! In line with his pleasant personality he also showed interest in us, his clients. We also relied on him to bring is to shops where we could buy quality items without worries. A great tour guide!
Summarized it was a very pleasant trip with zero remarks during the execution of the trip. I definitely recommend Luxor and Aswan Travel and will consider them again for future trips in the region.

Tolle Fahrt auf dem Nil
Wir wurden auf die JAZ Regent ubgegraded. Da nur wenige Gäste auf den Schiff waren, wurden wir von der Crew sehr umsorgt. Auch unser Reiseleiter Achmed (der 2.) hat sich liebevoll um uns gekümmert. Die Ausflüge waren sehr gut organisiert und Achmed konnte uns immer sehr sachkundige Hintergrund-Informationen geben. WIr können Luxor and Aswan Travel und besonders Achmed (II.) wärmstens empfehlen.

Wonderful experience with all details managed beautifully!
My four female friends and I used Luxor & Aswan Travel for two experiences: an overnight trip to Abu Simbel and a 3-night Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor. We also hired them for private transport to/from airports. I cannot recommend them enough, as Hany and his team took the worry out of the many issues one always encounters on an international trip and made my group feel very safe. They even provided complimentary helpers through the Cairo airport as it can be crazy to navigate! Our guide, Ahmed Megally was a lovely man ❤️. He was very friendly and easy to be with, and his passion for, and knowledge of, ancient Egypt was amazing. I highly recommend them for a trip to Egypt!

Una experiencia maravillosa
Un viaje maravillosamente organizado con un guía turístico privado excepcional y conductor. Nuestro crucero de 4 días por el Nilo era jamba - lleno de turismo. Recomendamos encarecidamente esta empresa.

10/10 experiencia - Pregunte por Ahmed como su guía
El viaje fue increíble. Nuestro guía fue
Ahmed Sliem, y su conocimiento, experiencia y amabilidad hicieron una experiencia maravillosa. Visitamos varios templos cerca de Asuán, Edfu, Kom Ombo y Luxor, así como las tumbas en el Valle de los Reyes. Mi favorita fue la tumba Ramsés 5 y 6 en el Valle de los Reyes, que Ahmed recomendó específicamente. Recomiendo encarecidamente este viaje y Ahmed como guía.
