L’ensemble global de la prestation m’a decu a part le vol en molgolfiere qui etait splendide. Par contre ma guide Samar helmy a zte un guide parfait tres patienne pour m’expliquer en anglais malgre mon anglais sommaire. Egalement mon chauffeur ahmid est un tres bon chauffeur et ponctuer

Dit bedrijf is absoluut verschrikkelijk alles wat ze willen is je geld geen communicatie van welke aard dan ook, tenzij ze een deel van uw tour annuleren leugens vertellen niet boeken u op boten dan schuld je niet een restaurant te boeken voor het diner te moeten rijden rond Luxor voor een uur met uw chauffeur als gevolg van deze gids niet geïnteresseerd in u verlaten om voor jezelf te zorgen en niet te reageren op berichten van bezorgdheid van ons

Taxi privé tout le long du séjour au top !!! Pour le guide, c'était Gerges Emad, très sympa mais anglais alors que nous avions demandé français... Nous n'avons rien compris et ça c'est vraiment dommage ! Dans tous les cas le temps sur site était extrêmement limité et il y avait énormément de monde. Les restaurants vraiment pas top, faut aimer manger toujours pareil et puis attention tourista... Malgré les précautions c'était pour moi. Hôtel chouette mais à notre arrivée 2 petits lits... Bof. Après on a trouvé un arrangement mais sachant qu'on a réservé très longtemps à l'avance leur excuse d'hôtel surbooké était moyenne. Les ballons c'est vraiment magique ! C'est THE BEST MOMENT !!! Malgré un faux départ où on nous a mis dans des bateaux puis fait repartir en bus au dernier moment sans explication. Gros bémol : l'agence nous envoie des WhatsApp pour les infos essentielles mais après on obtient jamais de réponse au reste de nos questions. On était de nombreux français divisés en plusieurs groupes mais pas ensemble donc vraiment difficile de parler avec les autres. Pour le séjour à Louxor, les temples jour 1 sont vraiment splendides il faut le dire. Et montgolfières jour 2 à ne pas manquer !!! Mais pour le reste il faut TOUJOURS payer encore et encore pour aller aux WC pour tout.... "Tips tips" ça enlève beaucoup de charme au séjour en Égypte. Mais ce n'est qu'un avis personnel. Pour le tour en chameau les propriétaires étaient très sympas mais je suis mitigée sur le lieu de découverte car on est restés dans les petites ruelles très pauvres et sales et c'est aussi pour ça que j'ai aimé car faut aussi être capable de voir la vérité de leur vraie vie en face. Merci pour ces 2j. Peut être que revoir vos groupes selon la langue parlée et les restaurants pourraient être bien, inclure (+60€/personne) les tickets aussi pour faire gagner du temps a tout le monde (car du coup Trop de monde on a pas pu faire tous les tombeaux... et avons passés 1 minute top chrono aux colosses de Memon... vraiment dommage) ainsi que votre réactivité sur WhatsApp. Encore merci à notre super taxi et malgré les incompréhensions de langue à notre guide cool. Cordialement

We visited Karnak and Luxor Temple on a visit from Hurghada. The Karnak temple is magnificent, An unforgettable experience followed by a visit to the much smaller temple of Luxor. Our afternoon session ended with a lunch organised by our tour operator. Needs to be said that the drinks were well overpriced, even for European standards. Our day made complete by the knowledgable and friendly guide Mary from Luxor.

5 stars for our guide Ahmed Anwer who was very knowledgeable and helpful. We have learnt a lot of key information from his talks which made the visits very interesting and insightful, instead of just passing along and taking photos without all the rich history of ancient Egypt. Would highly recommend. We had a good driver (Wali) too. The visits to the temples on the first day were terrific and we were truly awed by the achievements of ancient Egyptian civilization. Lunch was okay. Dinner was on top of a building with good views but food was not very good, one of us doesn't eat meat and the vegetarian option turned out to be just rice and chips (along with the usual starter salad and starter soup). Evening boat trip on the first day on the Nile was great. This was after taking a couple of hours rest in the hotel. The sunset on the Nile was stunning to say the least. Captain Mohammed was very helpful and took photos for us on top of the roof. The balloon was fantastic, seeing dozens balloons went up together and then be in one that oversaw the valley was really special. Valley of the kings were impressive and the temple of Hatshepsut was a great setting. Final lunch was traditional Egyptian and very good. We stayed at Temple hotel which was reasonably good. The reason for not giving the full 5 star rating was mainly because I think it is over priced. We have a primary school child who was charged full price. And having learnt the costs of things in Egypt over the last a few days I think the total price paid was very substantial, especially that it doesn't include entrance tickets which cost additionally c.$150 in total for 2 adults and a child (including the extra tickets for Tutencarmen). Arguably the balloon ride was one of the highlights and single most expensive item but that's actually fairly cheap (c.$33 per person) if you purchase them separately. Granted that this is a private tour which they packaged together for our convenience so I partly understand the premium but it also feels like one of those purchases whereby you pay much more just because you are a foreign tourist. Having discussed with customer service on the cost, they only offered compensation in the form of a private transfer to the airport on our departure, which is what, $5? Otherwise it is mostly good experience with minor setbacks.

If I say this is a trip you never forget, I dont even exaggerate. From Start to Ending the whole experience feels like an unreal dream. As most germans like it you get picked up on point at 1 pm right at your hotel from the most friendly driver (Mahmoud) you can imagine. He give you some interesting facts about egypt and Smalltalk if you like but also gives room to rest and nap. Costantly aware of our wellbeing. The ride to Luxor takes around 4 h so you arrive at Luxor Temple in the most beautiful light-setting which is perfect for photos. At Luxor Temple our guide Adli was already waiting for us and guiding through entrance and ticket purchase. You also have the option to book beforehand through the agency. But waiting line was short and we quickly made it into the temple. Adli is a walking book of information and patient with my son of only 6 y who was all over the place after the long day. After Luxor Temple you will be transferred to a restaurant for dinner which is tasty but for me it was the view over Luxor and the Nile from this rooftop-restaurant. After dinner you will be brought to a quite luxurious hotel with a comfortable bed and a wake up call-service for the morning. Pick up at the hotel is at 4:30 am by a Minivan. By boat you will be transferred across the Nile an offered a tea/coffee and a sweet snack. Just before the sun starts rising you arrive at the Balloon airport. On Site you be able to book a photo and videographer team for small money. Then you take off to a breathtaking Ride with the balloon. The Captain is sympathic and has a hand full of funny jokes. The view over the valley of the kings is outstanding. Afterwards back to hotel breakfast and then we got picked up again by Adli and Mahmoud for the last Temple visit at Karnak. The plus about starting so early is that you arrive before the masses of other tourists do. A lot of interesting facts about the building later you are ready for the last two stops on your trip. A delicous lunch with traditional Egyptian food and the Camelride. We have been brought back very safely and once more enjoyed the friendly company of Mahmoud. All in all more than worth your money😊

Mixed feelings about this trip. We loved the hot air balloons, Valley of The Kings, the temples were amazing and the sunset boat trip. The hotel we stayed in was beautiful and the staff were so friendly! For what you pay you get a lot for your money. The down sides: very poorly organised, a lot of waiting around not knowing what’s going snd with no communication and clarification from anyone. Also, If you have Khaled Galal, I suggest you refuse to have him and demand to have someone else. He portrays, himself as caring very much for you. That you will have the best time and that he will go out of his way for you. This is not true at all, he is very sly and not to be trusted. He harasses you to go to his friends shops to buy things, perfume , t-shirts, jewellery ect He tells you not to tell the driver as he isn’t suppose to take you to these places, he says the drivers are spy’s for the company and will report him. That’s okay, as I will report him myself! He doesn’t take no for an answer , we are a mum and daughter on our own and he made us feel like we had to buy things, I felt forced into buying over priced jewellery, but for all the rest of the shopsI put my foot down and refused to go , I am disabled, use crutches to walk, and this trip was a lot for me to cope with, without him trying to force us to go to places we didn’t want to go. At times he would try to rush us, and then he would stand around chatting to his friends and kept leaving us just waiting around for him. We paid for him to be our guide, not make us go to shops we don’t want to go to and we weren’t paying him to hang out with his friends! He told us that after the hot air balloon it would be a waste of our time to go back to go back to the hotel for breakfast and he would meet us at the hot air balloon and take us straight to valley of the kings before it got busy, that he was going out of his way for us by doing this. He told us to order a breakfast box and take all our luggage to the hot air balloon. He lied!! He didn’t meet us there, the organisation to get us back to the hotel was an absolute nightmare, we had to keep getting off one bus and on to another, our trip back took so long that by the time we got to the hotel, most of the others had had a lovely breakfast and left for Valley of the kings, it was also very hard for us taking all our luggage into the hot air balloon. Khaled was waiting for us at the hotel and tried to make us get straight in the car to drive all the way back to near where we had been. I told him the journey back was ridiculous and I will stop for coffee, he sat with us as if to rush us, so I ordered an omelette and said as we are here we may as well have the breakfast we had paid for! So he walked off and left us. When we were finished and we’re ready to leave, he left us sat outside waiting whilst he chatted to his friend! I really wish we’d had a different guide as we would have made the trip so much better. Even my 13 year old said she didn’t trust him and thought he was sly. She said he was also very touchy with her, something I didn’t even see, so he must of been extremely sly doing it when I wasn’t looking. It was so bad that after Valley of the Kings I told him I didn’t want to do the rest of the trip, the boudin tent, lunch, camel ride ect. That I was in so much pain that I needed to go straight back to my hotel in Hurghada. He said it’s no problem, that he would leave us and go home and we can go straight to the hotel which will only take 2&1/2 hours without stops. So we said good bye at the car and I didn’t want to tip him, but I did. He was obviously mad about the amount I tipped, I said it’s all I have left after having to paying all the entrance fees, having to tip absolutely everyone, having to buy things we didn’t want, but felt bullied into buying, having to pay to use all the toilets for two days. Anyway, he had said he would leave us, but to get back at me for not tipping him what he felt entitled to, he got in the car!! He said don’t worry it is only 2 minutes” basically we drove him all the way home, it was about 45 minutes each way, in the opposite direction to what we needed to go. I am extremely unhappy about this and will report him to the company. I asked to leave at 10:09am and didn’t get back to our hotel until about 3pm I think! When we should have got back around 1pm! He was also trying to get us to buy trips directly from him, I don’t think he should be doing that. The meals provided on the trip, although at different restaurants, was exactly the same meal each time. It was tasty, but no one wants to eat the same food for lunch and dinner for 2 days. The positives. The Temples, the roof top restaurants. The sun rise in a hot air balloon, the sunset on a boat on the river Nile, the Temple hotel The first day you are picked up at 5am, driven to Luxor, with a stop for the toilet, be prepared to pay for the toilet and harnessed to buy from the market there. First stop is the Temples, which were amazing. the guide was very informative. You are then taken to a restaurant for lunch, you get an orzo soup, rice, vegetables in a tomato sauce, salad, and you can choose from lotta, chicken or beef. After this you are taken to the hotel, we were lucky enough to get The Temple hotel, which is beautiful and the staff are lovely, so friendly and helpful, they can’t do enough for you! There is a roof top terrace, with seating, bar and pool. The views are beautiful. You are then picked up for the sunset boat ride. Our first boat was a very strange experience. We hardly left the harbour and we were not out long enough to even see the sunset. This is advertised as a sunset boat ride in the Nile, we didn’t get a ride on the Nile, just hung around the harbour, and we were brought back before the sun even set. Everyone else looked confused and dissatisfied, and were moaning but didn’t challenge anyone about it. When we got off the man who appeared to be in charge asked us if we enjoyed, so I told him truthfully , it was not what we paid for. He swiftly showed us to another boat which was just leaving and this as much better,we sailed slightly out in the Nile, saw the sunset, dank Egyptian tea. It was beautiful. Nor this is where things get weird, you are picked up for dinner and driven to a cafe. This cafe is owned by Nice Tours and what appear to be managers meet and get you, you can order a drink either from the free or paid list. And then you just sit there, no one tells you what is going on, everyone looked confused, we were expecting dinner there, as we were picked up to go to dinner. Then the managers bring you a massive gift bag with a letting for a gift, they then proceed to harass you for you to write a review on trip advisor, there snd then. I refused as we were only half way through the trip, I already knew I wanted to leave a review after the trip, in my own time. We then continued to just sit there, while the managers Errrr sat at a table near us on their phones. Everyone started asking eachother if they knew what the plan wass, no one had been told. So the communication needs to improve! I got fed up of waiting, we could of sat there for hours not knowing what’s going to happen, it was getting late and we had to be up at 3:30am for our 4:20 pick up for the hot air balloons . So I asked the mangers what the plan is, they said you can sit and relax and enjoy your drink until you are ready to be taken for dinner, so I told all the others and got up to leave. They then asked to take our photos holding a Nice Day Tours banner and then a video of us thanking them. A very strange experience, if I’d not said anything, we could have been left sat there all night with no dinner. We were then taken to another roof top restaurant for dinner, which was exactly the same as lunch. We didn’t stay long until I told my driver I wanted to leave. First I asked for the toilet and I was chased by the waiter to pay fit our drinks, as if I’m going to jump out of the window of a roof top toilet to avoid paying pennies for a cola lol we had a good night sleep, but as explained above, we were told to take all our luggage, a breakfast box and sign out of the hotel. We were not given a pick il time and my WhatsApp message was ignored. We were told 4:25 for the hottie balloon, so assumed a 4am pick up. We were not picked up until 4:40’ish the trip was advertised as a privet driver for the entire two days, but for this we had to share a car, instead of taking people who were in our hotel, we had to drive to another hotel to pick them up. It was very cramped. We were driven to the boats we had been on the night before snd I panicked I had been picked up by the wrong car, I thought maybe these people were doing a sunrise boat trip. There was just no communication. I had to keep questioning people all the time and as someone who struggles socially and suffers with anxiety , it really did keep taking me out of my comfort box! Anyway it was finally explained that the body would take us over the other side of The Nile to the hotair balloons. We were the first car lot of people to turn up and the first to board a boat, we sat waiting v fur ages while all the other boats slowly filled, then we sat there and watched them all leave and go to the other side , about 8-10 boats, they all got off and went off in noses, while we just sat there with no one telling us anything, it was crazy! I assume we were waiting for someone who was late, but no one answered me questioning what was going on, they just said we have to wait. We finally left and at the other side got on a mini bus. We finally got to the field room the balloon and my gosh the organisation was none existent, we were ushered back and forth constantly, told to come stand here then told to come back. There was so much confusion about who was going where, also using the toilet costs you money. I would t mind if all the toilets we used and had to pay for were clean and with toilet paper, but they are so grotty! Anyway once the balloons started to be fired up it literally took my breath away! It was so beautiful and made me feel so emotional! So many balloons go up together and fill the sky, it truly is an unforgettable experience and definitely worth going through all the hassles to get this experience. After the balloon ride as explain Khaled did not meet us like he promised to, and the journey back was a nightmare. Instead of putting us in mini buses with people from the same hotel, we were put with ones from hotels , we kept stopping and being swapped to different mini buses, we stood around waiting for ages, no communication at all. We kept having to drop people at different hit ed ls,we were the last ones back to our hotel, it complrtrr er my killed the buzz from the hits it balloon. And I’ve already explained the rest, that in the end we had enough of our guide and gave up the chance to complete the trip as we just wanted. to leave. At least I’ve given you an inside as to what to expect. Please do question and challenge whilst in your trip. Otherwise you will be left clueless as to what is going on and if you are not happy with something, tell them. And of corse, refused to have Khaled as he will ruin the trip for you. I still rate this trip, the good out weighs the bad. But the company should be better organised and improve their communication. They do this trip every single day for hundreds of people so you would think they would be better organised by now. Anyway, I hope this helps to improve your trip and I hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed the good parts :):) I definitely recommend booking it Dispite all the downsides
