Transfer Luxor - Aswan - The tour was very nice. Esna, Edfu and Kom Hombo are must-see stops on the way to Aswan. We had the driver-only option and enjoyed it. Mohamed drove safely and left us all the time we needed for visits.

Excellent tour - I did a day tour from Luxor to Aswan with stops at three temples, and it was a great experience. Our driver, Jasser Hamada, was very friendly, polite, and easy to communicate with. He is a English speaker. He drove safely, kept everything smooth and on time, and made the long ride feel comfortable. BTW, the tour operator replies very quick and take care of their customers. I’m very happy with the tour and highly recommend this tour.
