Amazing Day.

rupert_g, Feb 2025
Absolutely brilliant service. Fantastic driver and guide. Both made the day very special from start to finish. Our guide was very good and his knowledge was brilliant and English amazing. Never felt rushed when looking around and answered all our questions.

Private excursion which was not private at all

Sandy_V, Apr 2024
Really did not enjoy this trip , the tour guide had his own agenda, we started with the karnak temple, from the time we got there he kept asking us to visit another temple rushing us at this temple, he then told us of the price to visit the other temple which he told us was £20 per person then tried to negatiate the price down. Throughout the reat of the day he kept on forcing me to write a review for him which i was not happy about as we were still on the trip. The trip was very rush and not pleasant at all considering this was a private trip , he also wanted to take us to his friend shop and kept on preventing me from buying from any other shop.

Response from Host, May 2024

Mr. Sandy Indian! It was a private trip and the driver was also good. The delicious lunch you had at Luxor's best restaurants was good. Snacks, water and cola. The car was modern and good!! . You and your children visited all the archaeological sites mentioned!! All the staff were serving you honestly even though they were fasting and it was good!!! I called you during the trip and you told me that the trip was good and this is what made us very happy. You assured me during the call that you would write us a good review. When you returned to Norther Ireland, things changed? Regarding the Habu Temple, which is a temple not included in the trip, and the guide told you that the person 20 is English and you refused to go, what is the problem!! Do you want to visit this temple for free? No thank you. Manolo

Great day out!

chris_C, Feb 2024
Very prompt pick up in comfy air conditioned mini bus, driver was great and offered snacks for the journey. Took around 4 hours to get there with a toilet stop on the way, ensure you take toilet paper as many rest places dont have some. We met the guide there in Luxor, Mohammed who was great, he was very knowledgeable and made the day very relaxed, offered any additional stops we'd like to make like the Banana Island or any of the factory shops however as we'd been to these in the past we declined. We felt we had sufficient time after each stop to walk around and take photos and spend time at each place with no pressure. Lunch was tasty at the cafe and a nice relaxing view of the Nile! We really enjoyed our trip back to Luxor thank you would really recommend having a private tour!

Great Day in Luxor

Michele_R, Feb 2024
Azab was a fantastic, knowledgeable guide who made our day in Luxor so worth it! He was a wealth of information at each of the spots we visited, and organized a fabulous lunch for us in a local spot to make our day extra special. Highly recommend!

Fantastic day trip guided by Azad, to Luxor. Went to Karnak temples Habu temples Hatshepsut temple and Valley of the Kings. We visited three tombs and two extra on recommendation and they were amazing. Azad has amazing knowledge and has educated us in the history of the area which has been so interesting. We enjoyed this day so much and will return to this wonderful place again if we can. Thank you so much Azad for making our day so great. A long day but we would highly recommend this trip to anyone who visits Egypt. We had a day making amazing memories

What an amazing trip. Driver didn’t speak much English which wasn’t a problem, he made sure we were comfortable. Excellent driver felt completely safe. The guide was amazing, thank you Azab for a wonderful day, very knowledgeable and obviously loves his job. Would definitely recommend this private tour.

Great day out to see Egypt's past

Carol_S, Jun 2022
Had a super day seeing the sights of Luxor. Drive was very comfortable and safe experience. My guide was full of information and I learned a lot. Seeing all the tombs and temples on TV in the past, it was great to see in person. The only down side was feeling pressured in to buying in the additional stops. One reason I chose this private tour was so I would hopefully avoid the pressure. But saying that a great way to see a lot and not be stuck in a bus. Many thanks

Response from Host, Jun 2022

We are always at your service. We are glad that we were a part of your trip and a small part that was the reason for your happiness and a beautiful memory that will always continue with you. We are happy for your review. Thank you very much

Really was an all inclusive tour

Rashpal_S, Apr 2022
Carlos and George our Drivers picked us up at 5am and we reached Luxor to meet our tour guide by 9am. We visited the Temple Karnak on the East bank and travelled across the Nile in a motor boat to the West bank where we stopped for something to eat. By then, the day was getting hotter and hotter reaching 38 degrees, we were so glad that we had a private booking with Air con. Ahmed, our tour guide was great and always asked us if we wanted to see anything additional along the way with no pressure i.e papyrus, perfume studio, pottery or Bazars. This really was an all inclusive trip, a huge snack and drink box was provided for us and the tour guide even provided small notes to use when we needed a toilet break We traveled with 2 children 9 & 11 and felt safe throughout. My tips- carry small notes and if you want to buy anything, to get the best price agree half the price quoted.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Thank you, sir, for your review , and all the staff in the company thank you. we hope to see you soon and have a good time

Luxor merita, attitudine meno.

Lorenzo_P, Dec 2023
Partiti mezz’ora in ritardo, può capitare. Gita a Luxor molto frenetica. Guida altrettanto. Visita a finta “fabbrica” di manufatti artigianali… con finalità di vendita a prezzi spropositati ( 😉 tenuto il gioco perché loro simpatici e noi in vacanza). costante sensazione di essere solo un lavoro di routine e opportunità di guadagno. Luxor merita. Traffico e guida auto “egiziani”, state pronti.

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Grazie per la tua opinione. Nel viaggio è incluso un giro di shopping facoltativo. Non esistono prodotti contraffatti, sono tutti souvenir di qualità diversa. Vi auguriamo un felice anno nuovo

Interessant

Spannende und interessante private Führung (auf Deutsch). Der Reiseleiter war hervorragend und hat durch den Tag sehr gut geführt.

Vielen Dank, mein Herr, für diese Bewertung. Wir sind jederzeit für Sie da.

A faire !

Karine_P, Feb 2023
Beaucoup de route mais cela en valait la peine : sites magnifiques et grandioses. D'avoir un guide privé nous a permis de ne faire que les activités que nous souhaitions et d'éviter les arrêts "boutiques". Notre guide Hassan parlait un français parfait et était très à l'écoute.

Response from Host, Feb 2023

Nous sommes honorés d'organiser un voyage pour vous. Vous êtes aussi des gens formidables. Toute l'entreprise et le personnel vous remercient d'avoir réservé avec nous et votre avis qui nous a fait plaisir. Nous espérons vous revoir bientôt. meilleurs vœux.

Prive tour Luxor - Egypte vanuit Hurghada (nov 2022)

R_W, Jan 2023
Bij Viator in Nederland hadden we een privetour naar Luxor Egypte geboekt. Drie dagen voor aanvang nam touroperator Manolo Tours via Whattsapp contact met ons op. Er werden enkele praktische tips doorgegeven en ter bevestiging het ophaalpunt bij ons hotel in Hurghada. De chauffeur sprak goed Engels en vertelde interessante informatie over Egypte. Na 3 uur stond de gids die ons in Luxor ging rondleiden al op ons te wachten. De chauffeur had even daarvoor telefonisch contact gelegd. De gids wist erg veel over het werelderfgoed te vertellen. Als eerste hebben we de Karnak tempel bezocht. Na de privé boottocht over de Nijl volgde een goed verzorgde lunch. De koningsgraven in de Vallei der koningen met de Egyptische hiërogliefen en graftombes waren het meest indrukwekkend. Ook de tempel van Hatshepsut en de Kolossen waren de moeite waard. De gids en chauffeur van ManolaTours maakten deze excursie voor ons tot een onvergetelijke ervaring.

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Altijd tot uw dienst. Hartelijk dank voor deze review, dit stellen wij zeer op prijs. We hopen je snel te zien met heel ons hart we wensen je een gelukkig nieuwjaar met de beste wensen en groeten aan elke Nederlander uit Egypte🇳🇱🇪🇬

Toller Tag - hat alles geklappt

voitkelheim, Oct 2022
Es war wirklich ein sehr schöner Tag. Wir waren lediglich zu zweit (mein erwachsener Sohn und ich) in einem 12-Sitzer-Kleinbus. Wurden pünktlich abgeholt von 2 Fahrern, die sich auch abwechselten. Die Fahrt dauerte ca. 4 Stunden, das sollte man auf jeden Fall berücksichtigen, wenn man nicht lange fahren möchte. Allerdings geht die Fahrt ein langes Stück über eine "Autobahn" durch die tollen Berge. Landschaftlich hat diese Tour auch viel zu bieten. Das Mittagessen hat uns sehr gut geschmeckt, in einem netten Lokal mit Selbstbedienung am Buffet. Somit kann man selbst auswählen. Das Getränk zum Mittagessen ist nicht inbegriffen, aber das wussten wir. Ab Luxor begleitete die Tour ein deutschsprachiger Guide, der uns alles über die Zeit der Pharaonen und die Tempelanlagen erzählte. Die Tours entsprach vollständig der Beschreibung und es war ein sehr schöner beeindruckender Tag. Nur noch 2 Anmerkungen - keine Kritik an dem Anbieter!!: 1. Es dürfen im Tal der Könige nur 3 Grabanlagen betreten werden, da muss man auf den Guide vertrauen, was er empfiehlt. 2. Und es wäre schön gewesen, wenn die Fahrer uns gesagt hätten, dass die Snacks (Schokoriegel, Kekse, Chips, Wasser) im Bus uns gehören. Wir können diese Tour uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen!! Liebe Grüße ab die Fahrer und unser Guide Mohammed!

Reise nach Luxor

Lorenor_D, Aug 2022
Der Fahrer war pünktlich, in einem sauberen und gepflegten Auto am Hotel. Vorab konnte man über WhatsApp mit dem Veranstalter in Kontakt treten um eventuelle Wünsche oder ähnliches z.b. zur Verpflegung und Getränken mitzuteilen. Ich kann jeden immer nur diese individuelle Tour empfehlen, da man selbst seine Schwerpunkte setzen kann und dort die Zeit einplanen kann wo man es möchte. Dies gilt auch für Pausen, Einkäufe oder ähnliches. Generell die Reise nach Luxor natürlich genauso ein Muss wie zu den großen Pyramiden. Unser Guide war gut vorbereitet und begleitete uns in die verschiedenen Tempel und ins Tal der Könige. Dort gab es nichts zu beanstanden. Die Fahrt von Hurghada ist ziemlich lang ca. 5 Stunden das sollte man berücksichtigen, wenn man z.b. mit kleinen Kindern im Urlaub ist. Ansonsten ist nur noch zu erwähnen das im Restaurant die Getränke extra bezahlt werden müssen, hier liegen die Preise so bei 3 Euro pro Getränk. Alles während der Fahrt lässt sich mit Euro oder Karte bezahlen. Generell ein rundes Erlebnis das ich so auch wieder buchen würde.

Wir sind immer für Sie da. Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. Wir wissen Ihre Zeit beim Schreiben dieser Bewertung sehr zu schätzen. Das gesamte Team von Luxor Trip sendet Ihnen beste Grüße. Liebe Grüße und auf Wiedersehen

Super Souvenir Louxor

Nadine_G, Aug 2022
Très belle excursion, la prestation a été respectée autant pour les chauffeurs que pour le guide très passionné.Nous sommes ravis , journée épuisante mais très instructive ! Pour info prévoyez des litres d’eau et de la monnaie pour les toilettes car l’addition grimpe très vite sur les sites et à la pause , c’est le seul petit bémol, dommage de ne pas proposer à quelques euros près de l’eau dans une glacière pour toute la durée de l’expérience. Merci à tous

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Bonjour, merci pour votre avis. L'entreprise a fait tout ce qui inclut le voyage. Et la société vous a envoyé de l'eau, du cola et des collations avec le chauffeur. Désolé, nous n'avons pas fourni l'eau glacée pendant le voyage, mais cela n'est pas inclus dans le voyage. merci beaucoup
