Traveler reviews
Luxor ❤️
The guide and driver are very kind. Everything is organized to perfection.
Trip to Luxor
The trip to Luxor was very interesting with lots of impressions. I can really recommend it.
Never made it
My trip was cancelled last minute
Avoid at all cost!
Do NOT book! This is my first Negative feedback EVER! We never went on that trip and still waiting for Refund. They sell trips with no available flights. We were told to cancel our booking less than 24hrs before the pick up time (very convenient). That way they get to keep the whole amount that we've paid. When I refuse to do that and ask for full Refund, I was told I have to wait until they investigate our case. Still waiting... We are about to leave Egypt in a couple of hours NEVER to return : (
BEST TOUR EVER
I had the best time with my tour guide Laila. She recommended so many other things that I could do that I definitely felt like enhance my experience here. I would 100 percent recommend Ramses the thirds temple the art work and the magnificent buildings were just as great as Karnak temple. Her English is also really good and she’s able to go in debt with all of the knowledge with any questions that you have as you’re driving from place to place. I definitely would recommend her as a guide. If you do book she knows so much about the rich history of Egyptian rulers and also all of the pharaohs this was such an amazing I had the best time and I did it solo. I would also recommend banana island you can see all the amazing monkeys and crocodiles while cruising through the river Nile
