Luxor East and West Bank Day Tour plus Felluca Ride and Hot Air Ballon ride - We had a wonderful time exploring Luxor thanks to our professional guide Hatam! He was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions in regards to Ancient Egypt. He also has a great sense of humor and he went above and beyond by making sure we were able to get our USB flash drive recording from our hot air balloon experience in the morning after the tour. He even added Luxor temple even though it wasn’t part of the tour and still gave us an overview about the temple even though it was just extra. He also made sure we are aware of our surroundings to make sure we know what to expect. He’s one of the best guides we had in Egypt so far. Highly recommended if you want a professional guide! Our tour operator Salwa was also helpful she made sure to guide us on our itinerary every step of the way by telling us step by step process and what to expect.
