Insightful and fun tour you cannot miss! - Ayman is an expert Egyptologist who provided us with a wealth of information during our Giza tour visiting from Colorado. We learned so much from him and our driver Mazan was also wonderful and we had so much fun. Luxury Tours helped pull this tour together at the very last minute for us so we were beyond grateful to be able to squeeze in this tour on our last day. We added an Felucca sunset boat ride and it was the perfect way to end the day. Definitely recommend!

A tour not to be missed!!! - Together with our knowledgeable and extraordinary guide Hassan we spent an unforgettable day. Hassan, with his infinite knowledge of the history of Egypt, transported us back in time, making us relive with emotion, curiosity and interest a period 5000 years ago. This tour will make you fall in love with this land and its past full of charm and mystery.

An absolute blast in Egypt! Solo traveler review - This is definitely the perfect partner for your trip — I had the pleasure of doing a full 10-day trip in Egypt and this was the highlight of it all!

They have found a way to make all of their tours as enjoyable, thorough and efficient as possible in order to make the best use of your time. They are extremely flexible based on your preferences and are committed to making your stay as enjoyable as possible. Everything was taken care of and I felt like I was in the best hands. The experience was phenomenal and I loved being able to travel around & eat like a local! Egypt is a wonderful gem with a great balance of cuisine, leisure and exploration. 1000% consider booking through Luxury Tours Egypt — I definitely will do so when I go back!

Transfer for visit Cairo and Giza sites - It was a great experience, not only a great driver (very important in Egypt and expecially around Cairo) but also a great and funny experience. Interesting information and curiosity. You can also feel safe during the excursion. We were 6 people of different ages and everyone was assisted in the best way. For sure we will meet again for our next Egypt experience
