Abu Simbel Tour, door to door service.
The Viator tour of Abu Simbel worked out GREAT for the 4 of us...
We were picked up promptly at the dock where are river cruise ship was situated, returned to that precise location as well. Our ride was comfortable and we had an outstanding tour guide, Omar. He provided a thorough explanation of the statuary and construction and relocation of this marvel

The optimal choice!
I had one of the best tours of my life! I traveled solo, and the car was clean, modern, and equipped with A/C. Reem provided great historical context before we dove into each site, creating a truly well-articulated narrative. The team was incredibly flexible with time and adapted to my pace, whether I needed more time for questions and exploration or wanted to move a bit faster. They were also wonderfully transparent about the local culture, offering helpful advice on tipping, food, and anything else I needed.

A tour for those who want depth
I travel a lot and and I love history. In my first time in Egypt I needed tours that would allowed me to learn as much as possible in a digestible way. This is exactly what I got in this tour. Amira gave me the depth I wanted while exploring the West side of Luxor. She was able to give me enough details about the temples and tombs to make me feel knowledgeable about ancient Egypt afterlife traditions. Amira is very experienced with more than 26 years as a guide and she is able to dispense her expertise at the right amount. The tour took about seven hours, including lunch. We covered multiple temples, the valley of the kings, the valley of the queens and the city of the artisans, with a brief stop by the Colossi. The pace was comfortable and conducive to a lot of Q&A interactions. This is a tour for people who want to go beyond the highlights and I highly recommend it.

Thrilled!
The Full Day Tour to the East and West Banks of Luxor was one of the most memorable experiences of the entire Egypt trip. The day was long and quite intense, but absolutely worth it if you want to see Luxor’s most important attractions in a short time.
The guide was knowledgeable and explained the history of Egypt in an engaging way, not just with dry facts. The visits to the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and Karnak Temple were the highlights. It is hard to understand how impressive these places are until you see them in real life. Karnak was especially breathtaking with its enormous columns and incredible details.

Long Live the Reign of King Mina!!
Our 4-day Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor was absolutely unforgettable and one of the highlights of our Egypt trip. The ship was beautiful, clean, comfortable, and the views along the Nile were breathtaking every single day. Watching the sunrise and sunset from the deck while sailing between ancient temples felt magical.
What truly made this experience exceptional was our guide, King Mina. He was beyond amazing — knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and incredibly passionate about Egypt’s history. Every temple and historical site came alive through his storytelling. He answered every question with patience and made the entire journey both educational and fun. His organization and care for the group made everything smooth and stress-free from start to finish.
The excursions to Abu Simbel, Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and all the temples were perfectly arranged, and the hot air balloon experience was unforgettable. The staff onboard were also wonderful, always welcoming us with smiles and excellent service.
If anyone is considering a Nile cruise in Egypt, I highly recommend this experience — and if you can, ask for King Mina as your guide. He truly made the trip special and memorable. 10/10 experience that we will never forget!

Great choice!
I enjoyed the tour very much. The guide Hany Yassen was very helpful and nice all the time. The driver Abdo eas very polite.
The nicest thing about the tour was that we’re able to do everything in our own pace, once we hada a private car only for my friend and I.

Good organizer to travel with
I didn’t get to ride the balloon because of the weather conditions, it had to be cancelled. However, the communication, transportation and prompted refund were excellent and on time as soon as I requested for the refund.
This was one of the best experiences I had in my entire Egypt trip(after diving in the Red Sea). I would recommend anyone to book through them if you want to book a balloon rides.

Magical Sunrise Balloon Ride in Luxor
We had a wonderful hot air balloon experience in Luxor. It was truly special for us, especially because the flights had been cancelled for the last 5 days. So when it finally took off, there was so much excitement and happiness all around.
Our guide, Yisri, was very organised, full of energy, and made everything smooth from start to finish. He kept everyone informed and made sure we were comfortable throughout.
Our pilot, Baqir, was very experienced. The take-off and landing were both very smooth, which made us feel safe and relaxed during the whole ride. The ground team also did a great job, carefully guiding the balloon and making sure we landed in a safe place.
Overall, it was a beautiful and memorable experience. Watching the sunrise over Luxor from the sky is something we will never forget.

Full Day Luxor tour of tombs and temples!
This was an excellent tour company and tour guide! I requested a few last minute accommodations including pickup from the airport and the City of Workers (highly recommended) as an additional tour stop and they accommodated all of this with great communication. My tour guide Abdo is an Egyptologist and had an impressive amount of knowledge about the mythology and history of each site we visited. He was patient, communicative, informed and went out of his way to answer my questions and arrange the itinerary to ensure I could see everything I wanted. Despite a packed itinerary the pacing was excellent and I never felt either fatigued or rushed. Highly recommended this company and this tour guide!

Excellent tour as described
We had an excellent guide who was very knowledgeable and went into detail about the sights we visited. A stop was made at an alabaster factory, which seems like a tourist trap, but it was low pressure; overall the tour was hassle free, as described, and very enjoyable.

Outstanding views, expert pilot
If you're interested in the best views of the valley of kings and the surrounding area, nothing beats this tour. Or guide/pilot demonstrated incredible control, precision and accurately launching,guiding and landing our balloon. He set it down on a dime. 🙂

Temples and tombs with Ahmed Omar
Ahmed Omar was a great guide for this full day tour of the temples and tombs. The private tour is recommended, as it allows for a more intimate learning experience. He always checked to see if I had any more questions. A very thoughtful guide. A nice lunch to finish the day.
