Well-organized, informative, and impressive
Very well-organized, informative, and impressive tour. A comfortable mini-van with experienced driver Ahmed, picked is up punctually at 4:40 am. The early timing was absolutely worth it since we were at the sightseeing points before other tourist groups arrived.
Special thanks to our guide, Said, knowledgeable and attentive professional, who kept everything under absolute control, giving valuable advice and sharing interesting details of the great history of Egypt.
Highly recommend to everyone who is curious about such adventures and new experiences.

Day out at Luxor, Karnak and Valley of the Kings
We were thoroughly satisfied with our day out and would highly recommend this trip.
We got up very early in morning at 3.30 am ready for our 4am pick up by our driver Ahmed, he was a lovely man who went out of his way to look after us all day day and make us feel safe in his country.
Ahmed was very knowledgeable and was chatting away in English as we travelled to Luxor, he gave us lots of our great advice and warned us of the pitfalls of chatting to the hard sell merchants that you WILL encounter during your day.
There were plenty of stops at toilets/comfort stations during the
day, which was great for my wife and two daughters.
We got to destination in about 3 1/2 hours but we had films to watch and free Wi-Fi in our luxury minibus.
We were greeted by our sights tour guide Said.
He was fountain of information and spoke English well.
We arrived in the temples complex of Karnak and it was AMAZING and no crowds due to our early pick up and start. Said explained everything in detail and answered all my family's questions, you could see he loved his job and it shone through in his delivery.
The temples were fantastic and the history of the Egyptian civilisation was stunning when you realise what this culture achieved three and a half thousand years ago.
Next up was a lunch in a panoramic restaurant on the bank of the Nile. Egyptian menu, but tasty food.
Don't forget to take lots of small denomination Egyptian pounds,USA dollars or Euros as you need to tip everything and everyone you encounter in your day, toilets were 20 Egyptian pounds to use per person.
Then after lunch we went for a boat ride on the Nile. It was stunning. It lasted about 30-45 minutes and I got to drive the boat and sit on the roof of the vessel, made my day.
Off the boat back into our air conditioned minibus and onto the Valley of the Kings. This place is a cauldron of heat and you need plenty to drink with you as the heat was strong. You will need to stand in the shade whenever you get the chance. Our guide Said sorted out the purchasing of all the tickets you need for all the attractions all day.
We got to choose 3 tombs that we wanted to visit on our tickets, there are 62 to chose from.
Guides are not allowed to talk explain to you inside the tombs so we had our history lessons outside the tombs and ventured in on our own.
The tombs are unbelievable and rich in the history of Egypt, the colours of the walls were amazing considering they have only been dusted off and touched up with new paint.
Stories etched into the stone from three and half thousand years ago.
It just blew my mind what I was looking at in the tombs.
We were all gobsmacked at the history of the place.
Back into our bus and more snacks and refreshments supplied by Ahmed. We stopped at an alabaster workshop and it was very entertaining so we purchased a small carving to take home with us.
Onto the Valley of the Queens.
Yet another stunning vista to experience and Said was once again a great history teacher.
You may struggle with steps you need to climb up and down during your day but you can take your time and what you get to encounter is well worth the effort.
All done and back on the bus by about 3.30 pm for our journey back to the hotel.
We dropped Said off on the way and thanked him for great effort, history lesson, and looking out for us all day, he was very gracious in his reply.
On the way home Ahmed stopped at a roadside cafe/shop and we were given some ice sugar cane water to drink which was very refreshing and worth stopping fo.
More entertainment on the screen in the bus journey home which broke up the 3 and1/2 hour journey back to our hotel in Hurghada.
At our hotel around 7 ish we all thanked Ahmed for our day. He was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about all he spoke to us about all day and we were very glad he was our driver.
Summing up up it was a hard day physically but well worth the effort, the two people we had looking after us were outstanding and the effort they both put into entertaining and looking after my wife and I and two daughters was over and above what was expected of them.
Great day and we have many, many stunning photos of our experience.
I can't recommend this trip high enough.

ルクソールの素晴らしい一日
なんて素晴らしい旅行なんだ!4人家族（10代の娘2人）で、ツアーガイドのサイードさんと運転手のアーメドさんがいました。Ahmedは、午前4時にすぐにアウトホテルから私たちをピックアップし、すぐに私たちを安心させてくれました。彼はフレンドリーで、私たちが求めた興味深い事実や情報をたくさんチャットしてくれました。カルナック神殿までは長いドライブでしたが、アーメドが最初のチェックポイントに案内してくれたのは、最初に到着したミニバスでした。彼は運転の仕方を知っている人だが、カイロではすでに渋滞を経験していたので、他のクルマのスピードとクレイジーな接近に対して十分な準備をしていた。カルナックで一度、私たちはサイードをピックアップしました, また別の素敵な男性, 非常におしゃべりで本当に良い英語.彼は明らかに自分の役割に情熱を注いでおり、これまでのところ、このエジプト旅行で私たちのお気に入りのツアーガイドの1人となっています。
彼が我々に与えた知識はちょうどよく、彼は質問されるためにスクリプトを離れて気にしない。カルナック神殿、王家の谷、王妃の谷は素晴らしく、感動せずにはいられません。ツアーではカルナック神殿を訪れ、ナイル川のレストランで昼食をとり、船に乗ってナイル川を下り（各13ユーロ ） 、 王の谷、王の谷を訪れました。ツアーが終わってから、私たちは空気に戻りました。コンディショニングされたバンでサイードを降ろしました。それから、再び私たちを家に連れて行くのはサイードに委ねられ、彼は良いタイミングでそうしました。途中、彼は私たちに新鮮なサトウキビの飲み物と、杖自体を試してみました。彼のバンには軽食や飲み物が積まれていて、アイスクリームやクリスプなどまで買ってくれました。各トイレで何エジプトポンド払うかなど、ほとんどのことを手伝ってくれました。食事も営業しないうちにホテルに戻る。またこの2つをぜひおすすめしたい。

Valley Of The Kings
バレー・オブ・ザ・キングスへの日帰り旅行では、渋滞を克服し、列の先頭に立つために、早めのスタートと明らかに迅速な乗り換えが必要です。
そして緊急性は意味をなした-注意を保証し、エリアを訪問する場合は絶対不可欠である素晴らしい場所。
ガイドのサイードは素晴らしく、知識が豊富で役に立ちました。
幸運にも素晴らしいグループと一緒だったので、少人数のツアーがお勧めです。
長く疲れる日だが、間違いなくその価値はある。

アレックスとオーウェン

Best tour in Luxor
The tour was great. We got there before most on the ride with Ahmed and Mustafa so the places were quite empty which was nice. Said was a great tour guide and explained everything well. There was WiFi on the bus all the way and cold drinks and snacks whenever we wanted.

Rundherum perfekt!
Für den eiligen Leser: rundherum perfekt!
Von der Abholung im Hotel (04:00), bis zur Rückkehr (19:45) war die Tour perfekt organisiert. Unser Fahrer Ahmed war über die gesamte Zeit um unser bestes Wohl bemüht und der Van perfekt ausgestattet. So wurden wir über die ganze Tour mit kühlen Getränken versorgt. An einigen Stopps versorgte uns Ahmed auch noch mit abgepackten Eis, der Hammäää!
Der Van verfügt auch über ein Monitor und USB Ladebuchsen.
Auch die Organisation der deutschsprachigen Tour lief perfekt. Trotz vieler Touristen, hatten wir an keinem der Highlights Wartezeiten.
Der deutschsprachige Guide hatte ein unglaubliches Wissen zur ägyptischen Kultur.
Unser Fazit: Die Tour ist eine absolute Empfehlung!!!

I like it that much
I recently joined a Luxor day tour from Hurghada with a small group, and it was fantastic! The top operator provided excellent service, making the trip smooth and enjoyable.
Visiting the Valley of the Kings and Karnak Temple was a breathtaking experience, and our guide was knowledgeable and engaging. The small group size allowed for a more personalized experience, which I appreciated.
Overall, this tour was a highlight of my trip, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore Luxor!
