A day in Luxor full of colours, new experiences and history
Overall a great day!My guide Hassan contacted me with useful information and updates before the tour. He also checked that everything was ok with the driver and on my way to Luxor.Hassan was a professional, experienced and friendly guide. He provided excellent guiding in the historical sites. I learned a lot about the history and he pointed out interesting details. Great additions to the day were a horse carriage ride and a ride on a traditional motorboat along the Nile. Got to discover features of the local community like a school, hospital and how local families live. Loved to see banana and mango trees!Hassan was attentive and helpful: carried my bag, took some great photos for me, got my favourite drink karkadeh (hibiscus) offered to me in some local shops.For solo female travellers: Felt totally comfortable and safe all day, can recommend. Locals we met were friendly and respectful too.Minus point: A little too much focus on shopping and buying things. I found first prices in local shops visited high, and making a deal took time and got us out of schedule.This was my first day in real Egypt, a day full of colours, new experiences and history. A day to remember. ☺️🇪🇬Warm thanks and many blessings to Hassan, hope we meet again on more tours. 🙏

Tour of Luxor Temples
Great tour - came from Ireland. Tour guide was amazing, made us feel very safe yet let us explore as much as possible by ourselves. Would recommend :)

11 day tour with Nile cruise
I took the 11 day tour including the 7 day Nile boat trip. It was excellent. It was extremely well organised by Hassan. The guides and drivers were polite, friendly and knowledgeable. I found the people courteous and helpful. I had a great time and would recommend it. The culture of tipping is something you need to be aware of but the sites are truly amazing and must be seen.

100% for tour guide and authentic cuisine.
We were very pleased with a private tour with a guide who put a lot of effort into it. Transfer was also at a high level.Ask the guide to organize a meal outside the "tourist restaurants".This is 50% more benevolent and authentic:)So a private tour must be organized.You see authentic Egypt.

Wspaniale spędzony dzień w Luksorze
Wycieczka była bardzo dobrze zorganizowana. Mięliśmy ciągły kontakt z organizatorem Hassanem przez WhatsApp, wybór miejsc, które chcieliśmy odwiedzić był bardzo elastyczny, mieliśmy również cały czas ze sobą busa, który za nami podążał i przewoził do kolejnych lokalizacji - było to bardzo wygodne.Poniżej chciałbym się podzielić wskazówkami, wybranymi cenami i objaśnieniami - może komuś to ułatwi podróż w te rejony. Zaczęliśmy naszą wycieczkę od transportu z hotelu w Marsa Alam i pojechaliśmy prywatnym busem do Luksoru. Na moment pisania tej recenzji oficjalnie turyści nie mogą przemieszczać się nocą w tym rejonie (najpóźniej trzeba wyjechać z Marsa Alam o 16:00) - jest to zakaz wydany przez rząd Egiptu. Po drodze znajdują się punkty z kontrolą policyjną i wymagana jest przepustka. Jeśli ktokolwiek inny zaproponuje Wam transport w nocy to uważajcie, bo to nielegalne i jeśli coś Wam się stanie to żadna firma ubezpieczeniowa tego nie uzna. Żeby otrzymać przepustkę wymagane jest przesłanie zdjęć paszportów do organizatora - to normalna procedura i pozwoli Wam na legalne przemieszczenie się i objęcie ubezpieczeniem.Na cały dzień pobytu organizator zaoferował nam przewodnika mówiącego w języku polskim za 30$ i po angielsku za 20$. Naszym przewodnikiem okazał się sam organizator Hassan, który podzielił się z nami swoją ogromną wiedzą i spędził z nami cały dzień.Nasze plany wycieczkowe objęły lot balonem o wschodzie słońca, dolinę Królów, wycieczkę łodzią po Nilu, odwiedzenie wyspy bananowej, muzeum mumifikacji i kompleks świątynny Karnak. Wieczorem wróciliśmy do Marsa Alam.Zachęcam do przejrzenia zdjęć, które dodałem, bo umieściłem tam wiele informacji na temat miejsc, cen i sposobów płatności. Mam nadzieję, że będzie to dla Was przydatna wiedza.Przesyłam serdeczne pozdrowienia dla Hassana!

Hassle free
We choose the all inclusive option from Aswan to Abu Simbel. The whole journey was hassle free and we had enough time to look around these two beautiful temples. Awesome 👍

An unforgettable time trip in Luxor
Our tour of Luxor with Abdul was wonderful. Abdul gave us a lot of information about ancient Egypt and explained the meanings of temples with extraordinary clarity. The visit to the temple of Karnak and Luxor was impressive, and the experience was well organized and comfortable. I strongly recommend this tour!
