Day In Luxor

Excellent English speaking tour guide named Hassan Esnawi who picked us up from our hotel and took us on a customised tour of the Tombs of valleys of the kings in Luxor. I appreciated how clear he was when speaking and his knowledge. We were tired and he also arranged for us to rest. 5 star!

BUYER BEWARE: Dishonest operator - Ruined our "sunrise" experience

"Do not trust this operator. We specifically booked a sunrise flight and confirmed multiple times via message that we would be in the air for sunrise. When we questioned the late pickup time, the operator lied to us, promising a 'private car' that would get us to the site in 10 minutes to ensure we made the first flight. Instead, a shared van arrived late and we spent 50 minutes driving around Luxor picking up other passengers. We were still sitting in the van on the road when the sun rose. We missed the entire reason we booked this tour. The operator knew a 6:10 AM shared pickup would miss the sunrise, but lied about a private transfer just to keep our booking. This wasn't an accident; it was dishonesty. The operator knew we would miss it but lied about the transport method to secure the booking. I enquired several times about a refund and never heard back. Highly unethical business practices

Run away!

It’s outrageous to pay for an activity and once on D-Day, no car comes to the meeting place. I waited 35min for a driver to pick me up at the pick-up place to take me to the activity but no one came. Cannot contact the organizer or Viator support. This is shameful! To flee!! I would not recommend it at all.
