Amazing day!!
Fantastic day. It is long but so worth it. Leila our guide was amazing, her knowledge was second to none and her love for egyptian history really enhanced the tour. We didnt feel rush and felt so safe. Leila did everything she could to make sure we enjoyed the sites and the tour, she even bought us ice creams for the nile boat ride. The resturant was lovely, even my fussy 8 year old enjoyed it! Highly recommend this tour and Leila, you wont be disappointed!
Very nice experience with a few things to know.
Very nice experience, we loved doing these tours, it was very interesting, and our French guide Samir was really great! The only negative remark concerns the organization of the trip with the very early pickups at the hotels (3:15 AM) when afterwards we have to wait for the bus for 50 minutes at the meeting point... We had taken the option to visit the tomb of Tutankhamun (28 euros more per person) and we found out afterwards that the tickets bought on-site for this tomb were only 13 euros per person... So, the impression of having been a bit ripped off on this "option".
A fascinating and informative day in Luxor
An excellent day for us as a family. Laila was a very informative, friendly and energetic guide. Her English was excellent and she was very kind and patient throughout. It was a bonus to have ice cream and a boat trip on the Nile.
Disorganized
I, or rather we, did not enjoy this excursion. It is indicated that you will be picked up at 5 o'clock, and one day before, we receive a message that we will be picked up at 3 o'clock. The German-speaking tour guide was very nice and had enormous knowledge, but unfortunately, he spoke very quietly in the crowd, and we understood him with great difficulty. It was mentioned several times by both tour guides that we could book a 40-minute Nile cruise. Long story short, it was barely 20 minutes; the boat gets a minus point, and these points also represent a safety risk: A "hidden" rusty nail damaged my wife's dress. There is a risk of injury here, which is why this should be addressed urgently. After lunch, the German-speaking tour guide signed off and found a replacement. He mumbled a lot and also ran ahead of the German-speaking group very often and was annoyed if you didn't show the necessary attention (everyone shows their attention differently). At times, the German-speaking group was also pressured to go into the alabaster shop and look around there. The men who sit in the front and supposedly work there are paid to scroll on TikTok more and gawk at women. We thanked them, but we do not recommend this trip, or rather, we do not recommend this tour operator!
Good tour, the best guide.
The best guide - Layah, highly reccomend. Very friendly and easy to understand.
