Brilliant - Our pick up was at 515. We were supplied with a breakfast box and a bottle of coke or water for free. Two hours in we stopped at a services which has everything you might expect; tea, coffee, snacks and a toilet. At that point we had about 20-30mins break to stretch our legs and use these facilities. We then started travelling again at 8am. Arrived at Karnak at 0930. The tour guide was knowledgeable and allowed everyone to stand in the shade. The temperature was as 42 degrees C. He gave everyone enough time to see what they wanted to see and take photos. Then we went by boat on the Nile to our lunch destination. (Additionally Euro 10 pp). Lunch was a lovely buffet and we only had to pay for drinks (EUR, USD, GBP accepted and card). We went around various historic points of Luxor and finally at the Valley of Kings. We finished at about 1530 and headed for home. We had enough stops for the toilet and to stretch our legs. Please be aware most places expect 50 Egyptian Pounds or 50 cents (€0.50) to use the toilet. The ride back to Makadi brought us back at 715pm A fantastic and memorable day.

Amazing Trip - It was an amazing and exhausting trip to Luxor. We started at 4:30 am and covered all the beautiful locations. Tour guide provided the history information and interesting stories from the past. Lunch stop was also very good. There were Vegetarian options and food was tasty. Overall great trip.

Fantastic excursion - The gid was great! Took some photos of us and a lot of interesting information about the temples and Egyptian history. The lunch was great, but I suggest to bring your own drinks because it was very hot and in the restaurant you have to pay 2€ for a drink. Overall the experience was awesome!

knowledge and passion - Me gustaría hacer una mención especial a nuestro tour guide YAYA. Gracias a él, aprendimos mucha historia y algunas anécdotas sobre el Templo de Karnak y el Valle de los Reyes y Reina. Su conocimiento y pasión por la historia de Egipto nos dejó boquiabiertos, tanto que la visita se nos alargó más de lo esperado. Los Organizadores de la empresa Reinsen, fueron siempre muy serviciales y colaborativos, ofreciendo tours que se adaptasen a nosotros. A través de whatsapp nos comunicábamos de manera muy fluida. Muy contenta de haberlos contactado!! I would like to make a special mention of our tour guide YAYA. Thanks to him, we learned a lot of history and some anecdotes about the Temple of Karnak and the Valley of the Kings and Queen. His knowledge and passion for the history of Egypt left us speechless, so much so that the visit took longer than expected. The Organizers of the Reinsen company were always very helpful and collaborative, offering tours that adapted to us. Through WhatsApp we communicated very fluidly. Very happy to have contacted them!!

Recommended - It was my first booking through TripAdvisor and I was a bit skeptical about whether everything would work. Immediately after booking I received a WhatsApp with the confirmation. The pickup was supposed to be behind the gate, but it was directly from the hotel. The group size was comfortable (7 people) and the guide was great. Saw a lot, learned a lot, sweated a lot ;-).

Best tour agency in Hurgarda - As I say best agency, best services in Hurgarda. We organise with Mister Mahmoud all our tours how long we stay in Hurgarda and we were very pleased about all. Services, guides, transportation. We get in touch before we left Romania, via WhatsApp, and we explain to him what we want to do in Egypt how long we stay, and he really do a great program for us, on the best price. Go with him, and you will not be sorry. See you soon Mahmoud, I will be back, this time only for snorkelling and scuba.

Valley of the Kings Trip review - I have rated tour 2/5 for two reasons . The main reason is that this tour was described as a ‘small group of max 10’. I booked this particular trip because of that very reason ( there are lots of similar tour operators offering the same trip) . We were a group of 5 so that should have been half of the total tour group size . It ended up being 35 people!. 30 of the group were German speakers , which was confusing as I booked an English tour/guide. We travelled all the way to Luxor feeling like we were on the wrong bus! Obviously we were not on the wrong bus , they had collected us from our hotel and checked our booking details before getting onto the bus. During the journey a guide spoke in German and pointed out sights and buildings of interest. We were in the dark. When we arrived at Karnak Temple we did have an English guide. The tour itself was good and interesting. We visited Karnak Temple, Hatshepsut Temple and the Valley of the Kings. I felt rushed by the time we arrived at the Valley of the Kings and it would have been good if we would have had to option to go to Tutankhamen’s tomb, even if we had to pay extra to visit it but unfortunately we didn’t ( I think because of the lack of time).
