Private Day Trip from Hurghada to Luxor and Valley of Kings

Lani_S, Apr 2026

Convenient way to go around Luxor

Very convenient private tour as we dont want waiting for other people. We were picked up on time, we went at our own pace and was dropped off at the right time when our legs couldnt carry us anymore. The 2 Mohammeds who drove and guided us were very friendly and professional. They catered to our every request during the day.

Hurghada Desert OBSERVERS (Classic Stargazing )

Akos_G, Apr 2026

Great experience and tour guide!

Great experience to see the sunset in the desert, learn about Bedouin culture and also a lot about stars :) Our tour guide Moussa was very engaging and did his best to make sure we have a good afternoon / evening: he even offered to do camel ride (which was not originally included in our booking) and helped to negotiate in the Bedouin market! One thing to note for all: the ride to the Bedouin village is through the desert and sand dune and it takes ~45 mins. This can be quite a roller coster, which is an experience, but your stomachs need to be ready for it!

Small Group Excursion to Luxor Valley of the Kings from Hurghada

Lyndsey_R, Apr 2026

Great day to see everything in one go

We had a great day. Yes it’s an early start, yes it’s hot and yes it’s tiring. Reading some of the reviews I’m not sure why some people don’t expect this? Our drivers were amazing and also tour guide very helpful. Plenty of drinks for all throughout. Enough toilets stops on route and back and most of all the itinerary was amazing. We opted to pay for Nile boat and is worth it. I think if you want to spend significant time in each place this isn’t or you as it’s an all in one day tour (also with the heat I wouldn’t want to spend a huge amount of time in each)! Overall I’d recommend this trip - we travelled from Hurghada and it’s a nice small tour.

Hurghada : Cairo Excursion by Flight, Pyramid GEM or Ancient Museum

Tom_S, Mar 2026

Fantastic tour

The tour of the Pyramids, Museum and Cairo was amazing and very well organised from start to finish. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Ahmed Sholah was my guide for the day and he made the whole experience very enjoyable and stress free and he knew all of the best places to take the best photos and they all looked fantastic. I would highly recommend this tour.

Dolphin House with lunch by Boat from Hurghada

David_J, Jan 2026

Hurghada Dolphin House

The day began with a timely pickup by Ahmed. He is a gem! Comfortable vehicle, relaxed drive, and super kind toward our family. He was also there to pick us up following the excursion. We enjoyed snack and refreshments. The boat crew and captain were fantastic. Again, incredibly warm and helpful. They were fabulous in accommodating all people on the boat, whether young or old, novice or experienced. Day began with seeing dolphins while still tied up at port. Then a long haul to the Dolphin House. Along the way we spotted dolphins from the boat. On location, we were able to swim near some coral and had two small pods of dolphins swim very near us. It was incredible. Important to jote is that the crew of our boat was respectful towards the reefs and dolphins. This cannot be said for other boats and zodiacs we observed. Lunch was tasty. More dolphins observed on our way to the final snorkeling location. That last reef was another pleasant swim with good variety of fish and a couple of rays. The people working this tour, from driver to crew to captain were all lovely and worked hard to make it enjoyable for all.

Hurghada: Star Watching Desert Adventure by Jeep with Dinner

Harikrishnan_L, Dec 2025

Star-studded experience with amazing folks!!

This was the most beautiful experience of our Egypt trip. The team was amazing, they picked me up right on time from the hotel, the vehicle was super-comfortable, the driver was amazing and the jeep safari on the desert was awesome.. absolute offroading which they called "Egyptian massage". The main person explained well about Bedouins and showed us glimpses of their lifestyle, the sunset point was amazing and the little camel ride was fun. Our astronomer Arabi was superfun and knowledgeable, the dinner was great and the stargazing experience was beautiful. The return journey again was great! For the money, it was amazing collection of multiple experiences well-managed by the team of wonderful people. Very highly recommended!!

Hurghada: ATV Quad Safari & Bedouin Village Tour with Camel Ride

Hareet_R, Oct 2025

Great experience !

We were picked up from our hotel right on time — the driver came into reception to collect us, which was a nice touch. The car journey was about 25 minutes from where we were staying. The quad biking was great fun! Definitely recommend wearing the provided goggles — sunglasses won’t be enough for the dust. We brought scarfs with us. Our leader, Mohammed, was really friendly and took lots of photos for us, which made the experience even better. The camel ride was short but cool, and the tea they served was lovely. There are small shops on site if you need to buy anything, and you can bring a small bag with you. Overall, a really good experience! We did pay 400 LE for a fridge magnet, which was quite steep — so make sure to double-check prices before buying souvenirs.

Orange Bay Island

Leon_S, Sept 2025

Orange Bay is worth the trip

Make sure that you bring some extra cash with you as there is a levy or extra tax for visiting the nature's area which will have to pay before you board the boat. Also make sure that you bring a towel with you for drying yourself after the two snorkel stops which are on reach to Orange Bay. You might also need some extra cash for buying ice creams or any other items from the gift shops located on Orange Bay, which is an additional charge outside of the payment made for the trip. All in all a good experience. And a little bit extra to tip your guide. Loaded structure, crew etc is always appreciated

Cairo By Big Bus full day From Hurghada (Pyramids-sphinx-Egyptian Museum-Lunch)

Christopher_L, Aug 2025

Cairo Trip - Museum, Pyramids, Sphinx

We travelled from Hurghada by coach and it was a long journey and a long day, but worth it. Flying would be a better option I'm hindesight and if your able, but luckily the coach was spacious enough for everyone to have an individual seat and catch a little shut eye along the way. Hanan, our tour guide joined us and was fantastic from start to finish very warm and knowledgeable about the sites we were visiting and also added extra info on landmarks and the history. This was our first day trip as a group out of 6 planned, and we hope to see Hanan before we leave. Multilingual and ensured everyone kept with the group and gave information on areas and artifacts we visited, with a smile that would brighten up any dull day. Amazing tour guide and an amazing experience for the first Egyot excusion. Thanks Hanan, for an amazing day. Chris
