Luxor 10-Day Tours and Trips

I signed up for this tour to see all the things that I had only read about in history books. And it didn't disappoint. The tour starts with someone meeting you at the Cairo airport to help through customs. This makes it so easy. You get handed off a few times and end up at the hotel. There is security everywhere. I never felt unsafe during the entire tour. There are several add on tours you can do before or after the official tour. I did the Memphis a Dashur tour, which included two pyramids, and also did the Alexandria day trip. It's totally worth it to go into the pyramids. They are hot and stuffy and an uncomfortable hunkered over walk to get into but it's so worth it. You are going to be spending a lot of time traveling on a bus on rough roads so be ready for that. Some of the days start really early so you can get there before the crowds. This ended up being totally worth it nothing like having a whole temple to yourself. Be ready for very pushy salesfolks everywhere. Also have lots of small bills available for tipping and bathroom breaks, there's normally a fee for any bathroom use. And bring your own TP since there often isn't any. The guides know a lot. Our guide was Mina M. He answered all our questions and provided tons of information and kept everything going smoothly. He was more than wiling to accommodate requests. We had signed up for the felucca but discovered it was just sleeping in a group on the deck of the boat which is more adventure than we wanted. So he arranged for us to do the cruise but stay in the hotel that night which was fantastic. The highlight for me was the valley of the kings in Luxor and snorkeling in the Red Sea. I want to return to see more of both.

Fabulous value for money- accomodation including 3 nights on a ship on the Nile, a flight to Aswan, ferry rides, comfortable buses and a horse and carriage ride to a temple, and 2 nights at a resort in Hurghada. Great food, good accomodation, big days and lots of learning with our outstanding guide Michael Mousa.

The tour was a highly enriching experience. The tour guide Mr Ramez was incredibly knowledgeable providing insightful details at every historic site that we visited and ensured our safety throughout the trip. I learned a lot from his expertise.

Tour was well organized and gave enough time for sightseeing. Meena, our tour guide was marvelous and made it even more enjoyable. His story telling skill is outstanding. Lot of early morning check outs [however it make sense with travel time and to avoid excoriating heat in afternoon]. Felucca cruise was totally worth despite its preliminary facilities as sleeping under the stars on nile river was an amazing experience. Tour company was able to accommodate modification of the tour. Highly recommended tour esp for solo traveller!!

Took this trip with the tour operator in Oct 2019 and it was a spectacular journey to witness the ancient civilization of Egypt. Our guide, Kero, was not only extremely knowledgeable about Egyptian history but also very attentive to ensure that everyone in the tour group felt welcomed and comfortable as a big family.

We had a great and well organized trip. Knowledgeable and friendly guides, nice hotels and a full itinerary. We spent time in Cairo and Alexandria seeing the sights, a river cruise from Aswan to Luxor and toured the Valley of the Kings, and water time in Hurghada. Each place was unique and worth visiting.
