Rewarding Experience
We booked the Luxor excursion, taking into account previous Tripadvisor reviews on Remashka Tours. We were not disappointed, our driver Ahmed arrived promptly just before our pick up time of 5.00am. We were pleasently supprised on seeing our mini bus, which was a luxury standard vehicle. Ahmed gave an explanation of the days itinerary and advised we would be meeting our guide (Said) for the day at the Karnak Temple. We were given snacks and refreshments during both our outward and return journey. We had a short toilet break about 07.00am and arrived at the Karnak Temple at 08.30 meeting Said our guide for the day. Said was very knowledgeable and had a good comprehension of the English language. We had an early lunch at a restaurant (included in the cost of the tour) and took a boat trip up the river to the West bank (additional £10.00 cost) where we picked up our mini bus. We then proceded to the Valley of The Kings. This is a full-on day, but a rewarding experience with our driver Ahmed returning us back to the hotel promptly at 7.00pm. Our driver and guide were very friendly guys, and we would recommend this particular excursion company to anyone wishing to go to Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings.

A Day well spent in Luxon
Had a great day at Luxor. It was an early start, 4.30 pick up which is good because they make sure you get there before the crowd comes in and it does get really crowded. Our driver Ahmed was pleasant friendly and kept us entertained through out our drive.Ahmed and our tour guide Said made sure we were comfortable and we were well taken care. Said explained the culture and history in details and took his time, he dint rush us which was very good.
Will definitely recommend them.

Great experience
What an amazing driver, not only did he get us to and from our trip to Luxor safely but I dropped my bank card in the bus on leaving last night and he brought it back to me this evening! Thank you so much to Ahmed the driver and Said the tour guide x

Fantastic!
Visiting the Tombs was amazing, and I enjoyed the boat ride on the Nile.
The bus was comfy and we were well looked after.
Be aware the security guys at the tombs take amazing photos on your phone but you need to tip them so keep Egyptian money back to tip driver and guide as I was unfortunately caught out and couldn't get to an ATM to get more money for tips!

Everything you could hope for and more.
The very early start was well worth it. Imagine seeing some of the world’s most impressive and famous ancient temples without the crowds. Well you can and it’s incredible. The rest of the day continued to delight, helped greatly by the very comfortable and spacious vehicle, driven skilfully and extremely quickly by two charming and attentive drivers (Ahmed and Ahmed). Drinks, snacks and banter all refreshingly high quality. And a special mention to Said, our super knowledgeable guide, who spoke excellent clear English and provided exactly the right level of information. Other reviews we read before booking were positive and the trip still exceeded our expectations. What an amazing day! Highly recommended and great value too.

Amazing Experience!
An absolute must if you are visiting Hurghada! Despite the long drive to Luxor we felt very comfortable and looked after throughout the journey. Both drivers Ahmed and Ahmed were great, very friendly, funny and accommodating. The van is extremely comfortable. Snacks and cold drinks including water, Diet Coke and fresh orange juice was provided throughout. Said was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable and friendly.
Highly recommend these guys, outstanding and very memorable experience!

Excellent
The entire trip was excellent, the team were excellent. The two Ahmeds should have been F1 drivers, they got us to all the sites first and back to our hotels safely. Both Ahmeds made sure we were well hydrated and well fed throughout the trip and did everything they could to make our experience a memorable one. Said our tour guide spoke very good English and was very knowledgeable about ancient Egypt and gave just the right information so as to not lose our focus. Highly highly recommend these guys, outstanding throughout. Thank you for a fantastic day.

Fantastic day
What a great day! Picked up punctually at 4.35am at our hotel by Achmed 1 and shortly thereafter picked up Achmed 2, our two drivers for the day. A quick trip to collect the other couple on the tour and we set off for Luxor. It’s a long but exciting and interesting drive - given both the speed driven (it’s fast!), the chat and the desert views. We also got to enjoy sugar cane plucked from a passing lorry as well as plentiful snacks and drinks. Achmed gets you to Karnak Temples before any other tours from Hurghada as a point of principle. This is fantastic as when you are leaving you see the swarms of people that have arrived later. Our guide was Said who was brilliant - great English, extremely knowledgeable and paces everything just right. Nothing was too much trouble and the tour is very well organised with exactly the right amount of time for us at each stop. The sites at Luxor are truly impressive. We arrived back in Hurghada at 8pm. Thank you Achmed 1 and 2 and Said for making it such an excellent experience.

Luxor In a day
Just got back from Luxor Valley of the king's tour. Ahmed 1 and his co-driver Ahmed 2 were brilliant. They were punctual, informative and got us to Luxor before the tourist rush. The mini bus was comfortable WiFi and refreshments were provided . The tour guide in Luxor Said was very knowledgeable and spoke good English. Well done team Ramashka, definitely 5 star # 3000 years of Egyptian history in a day !

Perfect day out in Luxor
Amazing trip to Luxor. Driver Akhmed “the Schumacher” made sure we will be on time in every promissed location. He even went far and beyond in making us experience local crops such as fresh sugar cane and green beans, provided snacks and drinks during our journey.
And our tour gide - Said - brilliant and very knowledgeable in explaining a lot about the history of all visited places. Both of them: 10/10. So if anyone decides to get a trip to Luxor with this company just make sure you will have Akhmed and Said with you.
