    Not recommended

    The meeting point was impossible to find. There was no hotel pick up. We went with a taxi who took us to another service provider. It was pretty unnerving. We ended up paying for the Viator service as well as another. Not much to see on the river. Should have bypassed this totally.

    Naila was on top to keep up with me from the begging. She was right on the clock to meet us and greeted me cordially. Boat man was very good and answered my questions to the point that I wanted to know. Naila also offered us other additional attracktions with explanations, however, I couldn't avail it due to time constraint since it was my last day. Overall, I'd recommend this tour to all of my friends planning to visit Luxor and especially, have Naila as their guide!! Keep up the good work!!

    Perfect Evening

    My tour guide “Lola” was so fantastic. She showed me some places in the West Bank and we talked a lot about her life here in Egypt. She was a wonderful guide and it was nice as a solo female traveler to have a woman as a guide! Having an entire boat to myself on the Nile in Egypt is something I thought I would never say I’ve done, but thanks to Lola, I have. Highly recommend!
