Best experience ever! - Since the beginning Yousri was really nice picking us up from the hotel and waiting for the train to come (def book for sleeping train) when we arrived to Luxor, Mido was amazing. Mohamed was a great guide explaining everything. The day we arrived was my husband’s birthday so they surprised us with a cake on the falluca and everything was perfect. Everyone was amazing. I completely recommend doing this tour.

Amazing trip and professional guide! - This tour was the perfect way to explore the ancient wonders of Luxor in a short time. We started our journey from Cairo by taking a sleeper train to Luxor, which was a comfortable and convenient way to travel. The train had clean cabins, cozy beds, and tasty meals. We arrived in Luxor early in the morning, where we met our tour guide Hamdy, who was very friendly and professional. He took us to a nice hotel where we checked in and had breakfast. Then, we started our adventure on the West Bank of Luxor, where we visited the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon. Hamdy was very knowledgeable and explained the history and significance of each site. He also gave us enough time to explore and take photos at our own pace. The Valley of the Kings was amazing, with its colorful and well-preserved tombs of the pharaohs. We were lucky to see the tomb of Tutankhamun, which was a highlight of the tour. The Temple of Hatshepsut was impressive, with its elegant architecture and beautiful reliefs. The Colossi of Memnon were majestic, standing tall and proud in the desert landscape. After a full day of sightseeing, we returned to our hotel and had a delicious dinner at a local restaurant. The next day, we visited the East Bank of Luxor, where we saw the Karnak Temple and the Luxor Temple. These temples were stunning, with their massive columns, statues, obelisks, and hieroglyphs. Hamdy showed us the most important parts of these temples and told us fascinating stories about the ancient gods and kings. We also enjoyed the sound and light show at Karnak Temple, which was a spectacular way to end our tour. We then took the sleeper train back to Cairo, feeling satisfied and happy with our experience. This tour was well. organized, informative, and fun. We highly recommend it to anyone who wants to see the best of Luxor in a short time.

Great explorer of luxor history - We had an amazing time with Egypt Super Tours and our tour guide Ahmed. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. He showed us the best of Luxor, from the ancient temples and tombs to the modern city and culture. We learned a lot about the history and mythology of Egypt, and we saw some breathtaking sights. The highlight of our trip was the hot air balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings. It was a magical experience to see the sunrise over the desert and the majestic monuments from above. We felt safe and comfortable throughout our journey, thanks to Ahmed and the professional staff of Egypt Super Tours. We highly recommend this tour company and this tour guide to anyone who wants to have an unforgettable adventure in Egypt.

Awesome trip to luxor ! - I had a wonderful time with Egypt Super Tours and their tour guide Hatem on the 2 days Luxor Tours by sleep train from Cairo. It was one of the best experiences of my life, and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to see the beauty and history of Luxor in a short time. The tour was very well-organized and hassle-free. I was picked up from my hotel in Cairo by a friendly driver who took me to the train station, where I boarded the first-class train that departed at 9 pm. The train was comfortable and clean, and I enjoyed the food and the scenery on board. I slept well in my private cabin, and I arrived in Luxor early in the morning, where Hatem was waiting for me with a smile. Hatem was an excellent tour guide who spoke fluent English and had a great knowledge of Egyptian history and culture. He was very friendly, respectful, and attentive to my needs and preferences. He took me to a nice hotel near the Nile, where I had a quick breakfast and got ready for the highlight of the tour: the hot air balloon ride! The hot air balloon ride was amazing! It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I will never forget. The view from above was breathtaking, as I saw the sunrise over the majestic temples and tombs of Luxor. I felt like I was flying over ancient history and culture. Hatem was with me in the balloon, pointing out the landmarks and telling me fascinating stories about them. After the balloon ride, Hatem took me to visit the most famous attractions of Luxor: the Valley of the Kings, where I saw the tombs of Tutankhamun1, Ramses II2, and other pharaohs; the Temple of Hatshepsut, where I admired the impressive architecture and statues; the Colossi of Memnon, where I took some amazing photos; and the Karnak Temple, where I was amazed by the size and beauty of the columns, obelisks, and sphinxes. Hatem explained everything in detail and answered all my questions. He also gave me enough time to explore each site at my own pace and take as many pictures as I wanted. The second day of the tour was equally enjoyable. Hatem took me to see more of Luxor’s attractions, such as the Luxor Temple, where I saw the avenue of sphinxes and the statues of Ramses II; the Luxor Museum, where I learned more about the history and art of ancient Egypt; and the Mummification Museum, where I saw how the ancient Egyptians preserved their dead. Hatem also took me to a local house for lunch, where I tasted some delicious Egyptian food. At the end of the tour, Hatem took me back to the train station, where I boarded the overnight train back to Cairo. He thanked me for choosing Egypt Super Tours and gave me a souvenir as a gift. He also helped me with the check-in and boarding process, and he wished me a safe journey. The train ride back was relaxing and comfortable, and I arrived in Cairo early in the morning, where another driver picked me up from the station and dropped me off at my hotel. This tour was an amazing opportunity to see some of the most important and beautiful attractions of Egypt in a short time. I learned a lot about the ancient history and culture of this fascinating country, as well as experienced its modern life and hospitality. I also had fun and adventure with activities like hot air balloon ride, felucca ride, camel ride, and more. I did not regret booking this tour with Egypt Super Tours, as they made sure I had an unforgettable experience. Hatem was one of the best tour guides I ever had, and he made me feel like a friend rather than a customer. He was very professional, knowledgeable, passionate, courteous, and fun. He went above and beyond to make my trip memorable and enjoyable. If you are looking for an amazing and unforgettable experience in Egypt, you should definitely book this tour with Egypt Super Tours and their tour guide Hatem. You will not be disappointed! They are one of the best tourism companies in Egypt, and they offer high-quality services and personalized attention to their customers. Don’t miss this chance.
