Overall super happy....

Florian_N, Apr 2026
Overall super happy. Organized this very short term (like 12 hours before departure) and everything went super smooth. The van was spacious so that we (family of 5) could sleep all the way after the 4 AM start. Our guide Osama was super knowledgeable and very accommodating of our ask to accelerate the tour a bit given the full thing was a bit too long for our kids. The restaurant they picked was very (!) good Overall great experience would recommend any time

Excellent private trip to Luxor Valley of the kings

Great guide, Harbi was informative and took care of the trip and the details. Mahmoud the driver was excellent. He drove safely and properly through out the trip.

Luxor experience you must not mis

Heinrich_U, Mar 2025
We recently had a great experience with Memnon Reisen, their driver Ibrahim and guide Harby. We had limited time and had the one-day experience to Luxor. We were picked up early from our hotel on Hurghada. Our drive was faster than most agencies advertised and we had a very nice private car with AC, water and snacks. Both Ibrahim and Herby were very smartly dressed and we could see they paid a lot of attention to detail. We stopped once on the way to Luxor for a coffee break and Herby had a lot of information of the sites along our road. In Luxor our trip was planned to mis most of the crowds. We had amazing sites and some great pictures due to this. Herby is extremely knowledgeable and we were emerged in an ancient history filled with wonder. We had time for a few extra stops and we can recommend Herby’s recommendation for a boat ride on the nile. Private and again a great experience. Our lunch was at a very nice local restaurant. I think many tourist would mis it as its a little off to the side of the river. The food was traditional, the service amazing and we could not recommend this enough if you are looking for real Egyptian food. We were back at our hotel nice snd early with some time to enjoy the red sea before dinner. Herby was an absolute legend, he shielded us from all the obnoxious venders and steered us to most incredible sites and experiences. Ibrahim was courteous and a professional driver, his appearance and car speaks of great pride in what he does. Thank you for making such a trip so amazing.

Amazing (but long) day

timmopage, Mar 2025
Fantastic day. Our guide harbie was amazing. A long old day though.. 4:30am pickup and got back at 6:45pm. Glad we avoided the long coach option. lunch was really tasty and they were so nice. Own car plus own guide equals winner winner

Highly highly recommended!

Matt_S, Mar 2025
Such an amazing experience, our guide Harbi really looked after us and was so knowledgeable on all the history. Everything ran so smoothly, we had a perfect day.

Highly recommended private tour

Sabine_K, Jan 2025
Absolutely amazing experience where we learned a lot about Egyptian history. Our guide Harbie was very knowledgeable and brought history to life. Although it was four and a half hours from Hurghada to Luxor each journey, it was worth the trip.

Valley of the Kings

Michelle_M, Dec 2024
Our driver Hassan was on time he was very courteous and a very careful driver considering the way people drive over here .Our guide Harvey was fantastic he went above and beyond. The tour itself was spectacular we will always remember. It was a very long day but worthwhile. We couldn't thank Harvey enough he was very knowledgeable and made the trip very interesting Thanks for the memories We were very surprised also as we were the only two in our trip private transfer we would definitely recommend this trip

An experience. Worth doing.

Brian_G, Dec 2024
A long day. Be prepared. 5 hours drive there abd 5 hours back. The lunch quality was dubious. Not happy. Guide and driver exceptional. Well worth it. But not the long day.

Excellent day you won't regret!

Karen_M, Nov 2024
We booked this day trip, 2 adults and 1 child (Nov 2024). It is an early start but the mini bus provided was so comfortable and the guide provided cold drinks and regular comfort breaks throughout. The trip its self was everything we could have wanted. Harbie is very knowledgeable on egypts history and local issues. We really felt looked after. When out with him he told local venders we were with him and we didn't get approached as much. He guided us through the day and made the experience one to remember. Thank you Herbie, the 2 drivers and Memnon for providing this trip!

Excellent experience

allan_p, Sep 2023
Great trip, guide spoke great English, shared excellent knowledge, shielded us from hawkers and merchants, tailored our experience to us. Driver was friendly, keep us fed and watered and got us there earlier, avoiding queues and delays. Lunch was excellent at a local restaurant.

Five ⭐️ guide

AIMMA_R, Jun 2023
Very knowledgeable guide with street smarts. It was good to be in a small group of only five people, the ability to listen and ask question was the best since in a bigger group it’s harder to ask question and also to listen to what the guide says (all sites are pack with people)

Very interesting trip and good fun.

Penelope_W, Jan 2023
Our guide Harbie was very knowledgable kind and good company. He looked after us well and taught us so much about the history of the Pharaohs. He was very passionate about his subject and brought everything to life. Excellent trip overall and we were well looked after during the trip.

Top ervaring

Linda_J, Feb 2025
Fijne vriendelijke en bekwame tourguide en goede chauffeur. Nergens hoeven wachten. Wij hebben genoten! Wel een lange dag , maar zelfs met een kindje van 2,5 goed te doen doordat we rustig aan konden doen en ons geen enkel moment gejaagd voelden.

Ein toller Tag mit tollem Guide

Sebastian_T, Feb 2025
Unser Tagesausflug von Hurghada nach Luxor war einfach perfekt. Unsere Fahrer holten uns pünktlich am Hotel ab, die Fahrt war angenehm und sie waren sehr freundlich. In Luxor stieß unser Reiseführer Nasch zu uns, ein sehr erfahrener und leidenschaftlicher Erzähler, der uns in perfektem Deutsch die Geschichte der Tempel und Altägyptens lebendig und unterhaltsam näherbrachte. Er beantwortete jede Frage kompetent und passte die Route flexibel an, sodass wir die beeindruckenden Sehenswürdigkeiten entspannt und abseits der Massen genießen konnten. Auch unsere Kinder hatten großen Spaß. Ein toller Tag - vielen Dank!

Tour a 5 stelle!

Leonardo_P, Jul 2024
Il tour è stato semplicemente perfetto. Eravamo sei persone e ci sono venuti a prendere due autisti locali direttamente nella nostra struttura a Hurghada direzione Luxor, insieme alla guida in lingua italiana. Siamo arrivati a Luxor e abbiamo iniziato con tutte le tappe descritte nel tour ed è stato fantastico. Lo consigliamo vivamente! Guida e autisti ci hanno coccolato dall'inizio alla fine del viaggio.

Buena experiencia en general

Sara_S, Sep 2023
Desde la recogida en el hotel todo fue muy bien. El transporte privado cómodo y muy nuevo y el conductor muy atento con nosotros durante todo el día, ofreciéndonos agua y Coca Cola fresca. Las visitas a los monumentos están bien organizadas y el guía se encarga de las entradas. Nuestro guía Ramada hablaba perfectamente español y tenia gran conocimiento del mundo egipcio. Nos explicó todo con mucho detalle y nos ayudó con los vendedores de los monumentos para que no nos molestaran demasiado. El restaurante de comida local muy bien, con buena comida y posibilidad de repetir. Las bebidas salieron como en España. El viaje en barco por el Nilo también agradable, teníamos un barco para nosotros solos. Durante el día se hace una parada en una tienda de papiros que te explican como se fabrican y puedes comprar, también puedes ir al baño de forma gratuita (en los monumentos hay que pagar) y están bastante limpios. La otra parada es en una supuesta fábrica familiar de alabastro, donde te hacen una pequeña muestra de cómo trabajan y puedes comprar figuras de distintos materiales. En ambos sitios los precios son elevados, pero se puede regatear bastante. No es obligatorio comprar pero si te sientes un poco en el compromiso por todas las atenciones desde que llegas. En general el servicio con esta agencia fue muy bueno, también con nuestro guía en español Ramada y el conductor.
