Amazing experience, highly recommend!!!
I have always wanted to visit Egypt , so I decided to visit with my sister for our birthday in order to learn more about the country, it’s people and the history that has intrigued me since childhood. I searched relentlessly for a tour company that had real -life reviews of other tourists that had traveled to Egypt to explore just as I wanted to do. I was elated when I found Hesam tours and read all the positive reviews from other travelers and so I booked the full private day tour from Cairo to Luxor which promised an adventure of a lifetime. The package I booked included bookings for our flight from Cairo to Luxor by Egyptair , we were picked up at our hotel early morning and chauffeured to Cairo international and from there our day of sightseeing began. We felt safe the entire way throughout which is the most important thing given that we do not speak the native language and had never traveled to Egypt prior. By the way , even the drivers for pick up , drop off and on the tour made every effort to speak to us in English so communication was a breeze. We learnt so much about Egypt on this trip courtesy of the most amazing Tour guide and licensed Egyptologist Remon Romany who went above and beyond to explain everything in detail to us plus he had the greatest sense of humor so we also laughed the entire da. He covered information from ancient Egypts’ East and West Banks. Every aspect of this trip was impeccable , from the Nile River to the Valley of the Kings, to visiting numerous tombs,
to exploring the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut and walking through Karnak Temple. Our guide accompanied us to local shops to purchase our souvenirs like cartouches and papyrus artifacts. After the tour we had lunch and was accompanied back to the airport where again Remon made sure we were securely checked in before bidding us farewell. I can’t sing him enough praises as he was just amazing and we will definitely be requesting his services on our next trip to Egypt. ( Remon if you are seeing this review, you’re awesome!!!) highly recommend your services. When we arrived back to Cairo we we picked up by our Driver Eslam again who brought us back to our hotel, he was also very pleasant . If anyone is planning a trip and seeking a tour company I would recommend!

My wife and I had an absolutely incredible day in Luxor!
My wife and I had an absolutely incredible day in Luxor! After flying in from Cairo, we were warmly welcomed by our exceptional tour guide, Maret. From the moment we met Maret, her passion, pride, and enthusiasm for her hometown of Luxor and its rich Egyptian history were truly contagious. Throughout the day, we explored remarkable sites including the Temple of Karnak, the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and Luxor Temple. Maret skillfully guided us through each location, ensuring not only that we gained knowledge but also that we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and had time to ourselves to explore and reflect. Despite the packed schedule, there were ample opportunities for rest, and Maret even arranged a delightful boat trip on the Nile to a wonderful lunch spot, which turned out to be an unexpected highlight. For anyone seeking to make the most of their time in Luxor, this themed tour is an absolute must! If possible, request Maret as your guide – you'll be amazed and delighted, just as we were.

Amazing & a must-do tour!
What an amazing experience guided by the most amazing, knowledgeable and friendly tour guide Dina and her driver Gerges. Being two females that have booked independently a trip to Egypt we felt completely at ease immediately when greeted by Dina at Luxor Airport and felt safe and looked after in her care after experiencing Cairo & Giza which was a little overwhelming to begin our trip. Our flight was delayed from Cairo to Luxor and Dina took it upon herself to re-organise the order of our tour to ensure we did not miss out on anything due to site closing times etc. We highly recommend requesting Dina as your tour guide. The driving is also chaotic in Egypt however Gerges’ driving was safe and professional at all times. Hesham was prompt and maintained great communication from start to finish. Overall a great experience & is a must-do tour if visiting Luxor.

Amazing Luxor tour - highly recommended
We had an amazing Luxor tour with Michael! Michael was very informative and had the best day with him. Our early morning flight included pick up from our hotel in Cairo and then pick up from Luxor airport. We spent the day on the east and west banks and toured all the main sites. We upgraded our lunch with a boat cruise and view of the Nile (highly recommend this). Our driver George was also amazing and gave us a few laughs along the way. We highly recommend this tour - really made our Egypt tour memorable!

Amazing Luxor
The history of the area was AMAZING! Our tour guide Deena did a good job of explaining things although she did get a bit tired towards the end of the day (it was very hot!) and was on her phone more often than we would have liked. But we would highly recommend spending a day in Luxor to round out the Egyptian history!

Amazing private tour with Dina
We had an absolutely fantastic time on the full-day private Luxor tour with Dina as our guide! Her knowledge of the historical sites was impressive, and her passion for sharing the stories behind them made the experience truly unforgettable. Dina's warm and friendly personality added an extra layer of enjoyment to the tour. Thank you for an amazing day! Highly recommended!

Touring Luxor
I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Egypt. It was very informative. Remon was an excellent tour guide and we were overly satisfied with what the tour had to offer. We went to lunch by the Nile River and this gave us a touch of the country side in Luxor. Our driver picked us up and dropped us off at the hotel. There was some logistical hurdles initially but we were able to resolve it. However, I highly recommend this tour.
