Always travel with Memnon! :)
We traveled to Egypt primarily to not only soak up some sun by the sea but also to get a little closer to the country's history. Due to the many positive reviews, we decided on Memnon Reisen and booked two excursions through them. After our day in Cairo and Luxor, we - like so many others - can really recommend Memnon Reisen 100%. Everything worked out great, from the easy communication via WhatsApp, pick-up, journey, program, lunch, etc.
We went once as a couple and once as a foursome with our guide Adel in Cairo and Naschaat in Luxor. Everything was well timed and we never had to wait long to get from A to B. One phone call and the air-conditioned car was waiting for us. A huge thank you to these guys too for your time and the great stories and for bringing this culture and history closer to us. Naschaat in particular, with his in-depth knowledge of hieroglyphs, gave me goosebumps more than once. I could listen to him forever as he reads this ancient language from the historic walls and pillars of the temples and tombs.
Also a big thank you to our drivers who brought us safely to our respective destinations.
Two unforgettable trips.
Thank you again!

Unforgettable Luxor experience. Perfect organization
We took a 2-day private tour from Marsa to Luxor with Memnon Tours with our almost 6-year-old daughter and were absolutely thrilled. Everything was perfectly organized. Our driver Ahmad took us there and back safely, the German-speaking guide and Egyptologist was extremely competent and friendly, and individual requests were taken into account. The hotel right on the Nile was top notch.
Next year we're going to Cairo with Memnon

Magnificent day. The organization was perfect. The drivers were very good and the guide Akram who spoke perfect French explained the history of these monuments to us. A moment of relaxation on the Nile then a good meal in a nice restaurant. Everything was perfect. A private tour with a bus for the 4 of us is obviously more expensive, but it is well worth the price. THANKS

Exciting trip
An unforgettable day for us thanks to a great tour guide who passed on his extensive knowledge in an interesting and enthusiastic way. The tour was slightly adjusted after consultation and so we were able to experience the well-preserved temple in Luxor and Madinet Habu away from the crowds. The tombs in the Valley of the Kings were also impressive. I can only recommend this tour and Memnon, the drivers are friendly and the buses are good, so the long journey from El Quseir was easy to bear.

Best Private Luxor Tour
We did extensive research on tours to Luxor because it was important to us that we get the best experience. Harbi was so knowledgeable and the way he told historical facts through stories and visual drawings made the tour so interesting and engaging. His communication with the driver was flawless. Our driver always had cold drinks ready for us! This was a splurge but well worth. Definitely do not booking a private tour. This experience was once in a lifetime and we are happy we chose Memnon Reisen!

Luxor 2 days
Everything was super organized. 2 days in Luxor - that was unforgettable. The tour guide spoke perfect German and was able to explain everything very well. No mass tourism. The money goes to the right people and not to a large corporation that only pays people a minimum. We would go again anytime! We look forward to seeing you again for a second time in Luxor and Cairo.

Exceptional tour and unparalleled experience
We did a lot of research before booking this tour and we could not have made a better choice! We also booked a private tour in Cairo with a different provider before this trip and can safely say the experience with Memnon Reisen was in a different league.
We booked through Viator so we could pay online. Although it went through late in the evening we received WhatsApp confirmation almost immediately. Communication and organisation was exceptional from the beginning.
Our driver was really polite and friendly and kept us topped up with ice-cold bottled water and soft drinks all day. It was over 40 degrees and a long day so we went through a lot of drinks between us but never exhausted the supply.
Lunch was delicious. Drinks in the restaurant were extra but we had fresh juice which was both good value and delicious.
We also chose to add on the additional cost to see Tutankhamun’s tomb in the Valley of the Kings on the day.
Our guide Gerges was so knowledgeable and personable. We knew we were in great hands for the day and throughly enjoyed every moment of the tour. His English was impeccable and you could tell he had been a guide for 2 decades.
100% recommend this tour and Memnon Reisen. If we ever get to return to Egypt, we will be booking all our tours through them.

Excellent experience
Great trip, guide spoke great English, shared excellent knowledge, shielded us from hawkers and merchants, tailored our experience to us. Driver was friendly, keep us fed and watered and got us there earlier, avoiding queues and delays. Lunch was excellent at a local restaurant.

Trip of a lifetime
We would highly recommend this trip to anyone wanting to see as much as possible in one day. Thank you to our amazing guide Harby, so knowledge and attentive. Also our drivers Michael and Akmed who ensured we had as much time as possible at each location, by dropping us close and being there to collect us. All very professional, including the team who kept in contact prior to our trip. we had a wonderful day, and learnt so much.

Perfect excursion into a millennia-old history
For our first holiday in Egypt, we really wanted to immerse ourselves in the history of ancient Egypt and visit Luxor and the pyramids of Giza. We had read a lot of positive things about Memmnon Reisen beforehand and therefore booked both tours here, as well as the transport to and from the airport. However, this review only refers to Luxor.
From the communication beforehand, which was initially by email and later conveniently via WhatsApp, to the transport, to our private tour with an Egyptologist, everything was really perfect.
We were picked up at the hotel at 5:00 a.m., our driver briefly informed us about the course of the trip and then we set off through the still dark desert towards Luxor. 3.5 hours later, Naschaat Obaid (Nasch), Egyptologist and our guide for the day, met us in Luxor and explained the schedule for the day to us. Nasch was really an absolute stroke of luck for us. He planned the day so that we were at every sight either before the crowds or the crowds had just come from there. This meant that we were able to enjoy the places and his really great and detailed explanations of the history in a way that is certainly not usual.
If you're reading this: Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for your authentic manner, we had a great day!
The tour was really worth every cent, the organization is excellent, questions are answered promptly via WhatsApp and personal requests are taken into account as far as possible. We were also provided with cold drinks throughout the day (included), which is an absolute plus when the temperature is around 38 degrees. We can recommend Memmnon Reisen without reservation, thank you for this wonderful day.
