Luxor
Valley of the kings was exceptional part of visit. Luxor and Karnak much grander than expected. Remon was a excellent guide. Really enjoyed the trip

Awesome
I had a really good time in Luxor. Everything was smooth from the flight to Cairo to Luxor and airport pickup. We did way more than what we signed up for. The temples were amazing. I was hesitant about the Luxor trip but it has been the best thing so far. The boat, horse & carriage ride. and lunch was a plus! I had the best tea EVER. Very safe and knowledgeable tour guide even with the coronavirus going around. I highly recommend!!

5 Star Tour to Luxor w/ Remon!
From start to finish despite a minor snafu w/the airport pick up, the trip was flawless. Traveling as a single female during Covid 19, my health and safety were my #1 priority. Hesham, Owner of Hesham Tours set up my all inclusive trip to Luxor starting from hotel pick up, to flight, hotel and tours. He was in constant communication and was quick to answer any questions I had, thus putting my mind at ease. My guide Remon was absolutely Amazing! His in-depth knowledge about the history and culture of Egypt exceeded my expectations. He even became proficient as my personal photographer! ~ lol and went the extra mile by taking me to some of the authentic local spots where I was able to purchase some quality treasures (not the cheap tourist stuff...) Shukran lak Remon! Look forward to having you as my tour guide on my next journey through Egypt! Don't hesitate to book with Remon and Hesham Tours. Your trip will not only be fun, memorable and adventurous but you will be in good hands!

A must see in Eqypt
Great Experience visiting Luxor from Cairo. Luxor is a must see in Eqypt. We had the best tour guide. Dina was awesome, her English was great and was able to answer all of our questions; we loved her. The only thing I would say; that due to Covid; this is not a one day trip; there are pushing for one night stay; and return the next day; so plan accordingly; also do not accept the free one night stay they are offering to make up for the inconvenience; the three star hotel in Eqypt is more like a 1 star motel in USA. So make your own accommodations if y have to stay the night; which of course will be additional expense to the price listed here. If I had to do it again; I would plan my trip around Luxor and Aswan; much more to see there then Cairo.

Good tour
We booked our own flight from Cairo to Luxor and the guide and the driver picked us up from the Luxor airport. On time pick up with sign. Be aware men outside looking to help with your bags next to the guide and driver are not part of the package. Carry your own bags or tip them. Gave $1 a bag. Guide knew a lot of information. Driver was good and polite. Gave good suggestions on where to buy items and eat. Very helpful and friendly!

N eed a guide? Ask for Michael Nasser and Hany Wasfy!
We were really lucky to get Michael and Hani assisting us with the tour. Being for 4 days in Egypt, never seen a guide who is so soft spoken and very informative. Knows this place in and out. Hani on the other hand, has a great patience. Though we were running a bit late with our schedule, they never made us feel the rush. Very clean car and an organized trip. I have already recommended them to our friends planning to visit Luxor. Cost effective and the best service. Guys, ask for them particularly!

Mr. Erpelding
Remon was fantastic and very kind as well as funny. He knew every question that we asked and spoke English well. Took us to behind the scenes places that let us get a real feel for the culture of the past and present. Would recommend to anyone who what's to learn interesting and useful information. 11 out of 10. Was waiting at the airport with out names as well. Always held doors open. He and the driver.

This tour was the highlight of my trip
Right from when I booked the tour, Hesham was readily available via WhatsApp. He was always there to answer any questions we had, and I knew then that we were in good hands. The pick up from our hotel was spot on, checking into Cairo and Luxor airports were also stress free. Hesham will send you a screenshot of the booking confirmation. You need that and your passport for checking in. I would recommend to check your boarding pass when it's being printed at the check in. I noticed the airport staff member had put the wrong passenger name on my and my brother's ticket. Luckily, I spotted it and went back to get it corrected. Just make sure to check your boarding pass thoroughly. Remon was our guide for the day. He wove tales of Egypt's history like a story teller and we were completely. His knowledgeis second to none. He allowed us plenty of time to wander around and take pictures. He was extremely accommodating - he asked if we wanted to do anything else for the day and gave us options. We decided to have lunch and he very kindly included a boat ride for free. We also took the option to book a hotel to stay in as the return flight was 10.30pm. (We finished the tour at around 1pm). At the hotel, Remon took care of everything: booked us in, got our key, and he even kindly arranged for the hotel to prepare us a breakfast box due to the late flight. I can't recommend this your enough. Yes, it was a long day and we were tired at the end of it, but it is completely worth it. Karnak temple was the best bit, completely awe inspiring. If you're visiting Egypt, you cannot miss it. Thank you Hesham and Remon for taking such good care of us and for giving us such a memorable trip. Shukran :)

Incredible experience with a fantastic tour company
This was an absolutely amazing experience. If you’re fascinated by the history of ancient Egypt as well as the beauty of it, then you will love this tour. Our day started at Cairo airport where we took a domestic flight to Luxor and arrived at around 5.30 AM local time with no problems whatsoever. We were picked up by our wonderful tour guide Remon and our driver, who both accompanied us throughout the day. The day as a whole was simply flawless and everything we did as part of the tour was awesome in its own right. However the two main highlights for us were the visits to the Karnak temple and the Valley of the Kings. The Karnak temple was in my opinion the most intriguing place I’ve seen since being in Egypt. It is incredibly beautiful and is brimming with history through its unique inscriptions on every wall. Our guide Remon was extremely knowledgable and gave us so much information regarding the history of the temple, explaining it in such an interesting way almost like a story. He took us around the complex and explained to us various aspects of some of the buildings and then gave us plenty of time to explore the complex by ourselves for photo opportunities etc. If you love photo opportunities then this is definitely a place to secure a range of seriously impressive photos. You will not see a better place which has a combination of immense history and magnificent structures anywhere else in Egypt and I include the pyramids in that. The second highlight of the day was of course the Valley of the Kings and is probably the main reason why you decided to do this tour. I can categorically say that you will not be disappointed. This place will transport you right back to the time of the pharaoh’s themselves. The tombs were everything we thought they would be and more, brimming with colour, beauty and magnificence. I would highly recommend you visit Ramses IX tomb as that is arguably the best of all the tombs. The tour guides are not allowed to follow you in the tombs so any questions you have for them you should ask before entering. Regarding this particular tour company, they are absolutely fantastic. I could not speak highly enough of our tour guide Remon. He was extremely polite, professional and most importantly knowledgable. He would tell us all the important information regarding the history of everything we saw, before always allowing us to explore for ourselves and take pictures and videos. He was definitely one of the best things on this tour and made an effort to make our experience both hassle-free and enjoyable. The tour company owner Hashem also kept in direct contact with us via WhatsApp from the moment we booked the tour to the moment we finished and provided us with all the important information we needed before hand. I cannot sing this tour companies praises high enough. BOOK WITH THEM. YOU WON’T REGRET IT.

Expensive tour but good service
I was picked on time for the short plane ride to Luxor and was greeted with a guide and a driver. The day was packed driving from one temple to another. Had time for lunch at a local restaurant downtown. Chose light and sound for the evening as the flight back was at midnight. Nothing special for the show. . Micheal the tour guide is very knowledgeable and can answer any questions. I think for the $ dollar price the tour is on the high side and it does not include the entrance to any temples. I was met by the driver back in Cairo for the trip back to my location.
