Got to see all the basic things in Luxor in one day
The day was nice and there was a alot to see. It felt like we were in a hurry all the time and we moved on pretty quickly. The guide was a pro and told many things about Luxor. Sometimes he was waiting outside and it felt a bit weird why he didnt come with us and told us more about the sights.
The driver was super nice and drove safely in the crazy traffic.
Take some cash with you in Egyptian pounds for toilets and food on the way there. And also have water with you.

Luxor private day tour
After a trip to Cairo with a flash tour that was extremely disappointing, we looked for a new tour operator for our trip to Luxor. We found Marsa Alam tours online and have not regretted our decision for a second. Picked up on time by our private driver and met on site by our guide Ahmed on arrival. Ahmed was great! Speaks fluent Dutch and knows what he is talking about. Everything on site was also well organized. (Tickets, lunch and occasionally a fresh bottle of water) After visiting all the sights, tired but satisfied, we return to the hotel.

Amazing Tour to Valley of the Kings in Luxor
After WhatsApp contact from NL with the sweet and understanding Tasneem from the office, who helped us with everything and arranged everything well, we were picked up at 4:00 am and the day ended at 10:30 pm! Very long tiring, but beautiful day.
2 drivers who alternately drove the many kilometers. Well taken care of by the gentlemen. In Luxor we had an English speaking guide Achmed, what a great guy, great. Furthermore, all entrances were arranged by the guide. We also arranged a boat trip on the Nile to Banana Island on site. There was no delay whatsoever. Was a great day!!

Trusted provider for adventurous
Trustworthy. We were picked up on time for our tour to Luxor in Madinat Coraya and were able to do a tour that the top dog Travco only wanted to do for a horrendous sum (Valley of the Nobles and Sethos I). In return, we had a punctual driver, a car for ourselves and a great guide who spoke perfect German and was really knowledgeable (be sure to ask for Mr. Ahmed Moustafa!) and all for almost the same amount.
Unfortunately, the Nile trip was a bit expensive (20€ per person), but that was probably our own fault. The driver was also not fully rested; if you don't trust this, you should take the bus, but then you accept the pressure of the group. Despite this, Whaleed was very friendly and funny.
Important: Be sure to pay the remaining amount in CASH to the driver; online payment is possible on the day of the tour, but the payment provider always showed an error message for us, which spoiled the fun a bit.
Overall, I would do it again if you want to see something that isn't off the shelf and if you don't want to be tied to a large group.

Tour to Luxor and new friends
We have been picked up by Hussein at 4 am who was our driver for the trip to Luxor and the story says that he is the “Egiptian Schumacher”. At our arrival in Luxor we met Hoda as our guide. She will make sure you have the best time and make you feel welcome in addition to be the best possible guide you can have. Both we're very friendly and we soon became acquainted as friends.
The trip itself was very adventurous, very informative, and fun!
Hussein and Hoda did everything to make us feel at ease. Honesty is important, they knew where to go, where to buy, and what to pay.
During our return to El Quseir we have been in the company as well of Khalid who was our second driver with whom we had a great talk and discovered he is as well a guide in Luxor and one of the oldest employees of Marsa Alam Tour.
Thank you for showing us the highlights of South Egypt and for treating
us as friends! We enjoyed ourselves and it was worth it.
We will see you next time and ready for the upcoming trips with you! :)
Shukran!

Luxor gorgeous .. the rest improveable
Last month we stayed in luxor after agreeing the online route with the manager of the facility who proved very kind .. our adventure left at 2 am from Marsa Alam for luxor with punctual driver .. long journey but overall comfortable. Arrived in luxor we were joined by a guide who led us on the trip of the beautiful city and what not too pleasant , tried to give us anything for a fee, from the sale of DJ jewelry to photos with animals .. bad was 'lunch in a restaurant (?? But ..) pity the premises were excellent and luxor offers so much in cultural and scenic terms that wasting time in a grueling bargaining turns out to be very unpleasant.

Fascinating!!
It was a wonderful day when my family and I were able to tour the main temples and monuments of the Luxor area. We were picked up by someone at our hotel in El Quseir and in a comfortable van we were taken to Luxor, where we found ALADIN, who guided us and followed us very carefully throughout the day, giving us information and advice...a great friendly and reliable person. We had several drivers, all very friendly, and despite the chaos when driving in Egypt, we got to each place well. The food included in the tour was good and typical Egyptian. We had to make several stops at different businesses (Amber, Papyrus, Perfumes), which I would have preferred to spend less time and add to the monuments, but in the end also those places were interesting to visit as they are part of this fascinating culture. I absolutely advise this agency as they have quality and good prices. For contacts in Spanish look for Náda, you can surely organize an incredible excursion.

Nice excursion
We left our hotel at 05.00 (too bad for the delay of the driver who made us a little nervous) and arrived in Luxor at about 10.00. Travel okay!
Our Italian-speaking guide, Ramadan, guided us to the Valley of the Kings and we visited everything on the booked tour.
It was very hot so Ramadan offered us a mini cruise on the Nile of about 30 minutes well appreciated and above all excellent choice to admire the two banks of the river.
Thank you Ramadan for the beautiful day spent together!

Great day trip to Luxor
Great time on a one-day day trip from Cairo. They picked us up in our Airbnb in Cairo, took us to the airport, the driver of a great air-conditioned vehicle picked us up in Luxor, toured its all around, dropped us back at the airport after dinner, and a driver picked us back up in the Cairo airport and got us home. Long day, but we were grateful for the adventure. Only the included buffet lunch was sub-par. Glad we insisted on the feluca boat instead of the motorboat, it was the highlight of the trip, in addition to seeing the astounding sites at Luxor. Be prepared for everything to cost extra money… water, bathrooms, king Tut’s mummy, etc.
