Luxor with Abdo - We had a fantastic day with Abdo exploring the wonders of Luxor! He guided us with great professionalism through the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, and the magnificent Karnak Temple. He is knowledgeable, kind, and always ready to answer any questions. He speaks excellent Italian (as well as English), which made the experience even more enjoyable and accessible. We felt comfortable right away and learned so much thanks to his clear and passionate explanations. Highly recommended!

Experience of a lifetime. - What an amazing experience. I’ve learned so much about this country, their beliefs, their culture and history. I must say, it helps to have a great guide and Bola guided me through all the Luxor temples with ease and imparted so much knowledge of these wonderful moments, he is very knowledgeable and eager to share and answer any questions you might have. I highly recommend him as a guide. Thank you guys for the great work.

Nile cruise with semi private guide best way to see Egypt. - This has been a fastastic way to see so much of Eqypt. The cruise was comfortable and Andro made us feel safe in all areas. We saw the Abu Simbel and Kim Ombo temples. The crocodile museum and more. He stayed on the ship with us which made it easier for us as we had some health issues. The Hot Air balloon ride was my personal favorite.

When knowledge, ancient culture and great services meet =) - The company is always available to respond any questions you might have, which makes you feel secure and taken care. The cruise is beautiful, it has great decoration, it is super clean and the room was more than we expected. Our tour guide was Gabriel, who knows everything there is know about Egypt - inside out. We did the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple and Luxor Temple. Many of his explanations allowed to better understand what we were seeing or we were about to see. But I also would like to highlight his ability to be empathetic and very very carismatic. He is able to provide high level explanations, but he can also be very specific about any aspect or detail You would ask about. Great mix. We did not know what to expect ... But, we are taking unique experiences with us, we are very satisfied with the company and we are happy we acquired this package.

Great experience - Great tour and experienced guides. In Luxor my tour guide was Abdo. I had other tour guides in Edfu, Kom Ombo and Aswan/Abu Simber but canät remmenber their names
Especially the Valley of the Kings and Air Ballooning in Luxor were great experiences as well as Abu Simbel temple south from Aswan.
I upgraded myself to a Deluxe cruise ship which was a good option (based what the other tourists told me about the basic ship). My tours were with a small groups (three of us in Luxor and seven in Aswan/Abu Simbel).
So all in all, this 4-day part of my 6-day tour was great and I recommend it to everyone.

Great moments visiting temples of South Egypt - We spent some time out of time with our guide Gabriel during the visits to the temples of Edfu and Kom Ombo. Gabriel’s explanations of ancient Egypt were simply extraordinary. And the organization was perfect despite a misunderstanding with the driver in Abu Simbel

MY BEST TRIP - Everything was perfectly organized, from the domestic flight to the warm welcome on site. The Nile cruise was comfortable and well-managed, with delicious meals and very polite, attentive staff. Abu Simbel, Aswan, and visits to iconic temples like Karnak, Edfu, and Philae were truly memorable. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The hot air balloon ride at sunrise was a beautiful way to end the trip.
The only small downside: the pace was sometimes quite intense due to the schedule and activities.
Highly recommended!

Very good overall - To summarize our experience: we had a great time! Everything was not perfect and here are some things to know: the price of visits is not included. When they write "visits included" it just means they will take you there, but you will have to pay each entrance ticket (between 15 and 20 euros each time about). There were some slight delays but nothing dramatic. Also the picture of the boat is non-contractual: you will have a boat that may have nothing to do (it will be the same size and will perform the same function but maybe not the same standing). For our last day, the hot air balloon was cancelled due to bad weather, we were refunded $40 (at the time of writing I have not yet been refunded, but I just finished the cruise). Due to this cancellation, we asked to advance the tours to 6am instead of 9am and the agency arranged to do it at the last minute, thanks to them.
For our last day, Christine was a good guide, repeating herself sometimes and not always understanding our questions but nevertheless bringing a lot of information to the different sites. She also left us the free time we wanted to take pictures, and finally had a very pleasant time.
The other guides were also excellent but I don't remember their names (hani maybe in Abu Simbel and Marie a Aswan).
