Great tour - This was an excellent trip overall with some caveats. We were picked on time by our driver Ahmed. His van is the most luxurious transport you can ask for and we have it only for ourselves. The seats are comfy, there are extra cushions, rugs on the floor, free WiFi throughout the day and all sorts of cold drinks and snacks. Flat screen with entertainment and even some nice decor including live plants. Ahmed is a great host and he will make you feel welcomed and safe. He will stop for a quick toilet/smoke break if you ask him. His driving skills are second to none and he prides himself to be the first tour on site from Hurghada which I'm sure of he achieves every time. He drives fast, very fast. But please don't be alarmed, he is the best driver and we enjoyed his driving skills. And as I mentioned we were the first ones in Karnak temple from Hurghada which means little to no crowds. In Karnak we met Said, our guide for a day. He is very knowledgeable and you can ask him questions about Egypt rich history which he will gladly answer. During the Karnak tour he wanted to sell us some necklaces that can be personalised with your name, but we declined. From memory they were like 30 dollars and more depending on the material. After the tour you will have 30 minutes to explore the site for yourself or just to take pictures. You will be asked if you are interested in the optional boat ride on the Nile as this have to be booked in advance. We agreed to it even though it's quite expensive. Normally you would pay 10 EUR per person, but because it's private, we paid 50 EUR in total for both of us. I believe next stop would be a papyrus workshop, but we already been to one in Hurghada so we skipped this one. We went to an Egyptian cotton store instead, as my girlfriend was after some dress for herself. She bought one and she was very happy with the quality and the price. She paid around 35 dollars. This was an optional activity purely on her whim and Said recommended the store we went to. Next stop was a free buffet lunch next to the Nile river and the restaurant was decent enough. There was a choice of mains, salads and desserts and we were happy with the quality of the food. Drinks are to be paid extra but they were cheap. For a cappuccino, espresso and juice we paid 190 LE. There are free toilets in the restaurant and they are spotless, so if you need to use one, do it here. After the lunch we hopped to the boat from the pier next to the restaurant and started our 45 minute sailing on the Nile river. We saw Luxor temple and took a nice pictures from top of the boat. We relaxed as the coffee/tea was served and enjoyed Said history talk. It was a nice experience, but not worth 50 EUR. Ahmed was waiting for us on the other side of the river and took us to the Colossi of Memnon for a quick photoshoot and Valley of Kings after. There you will have 3 tombs to explore and you can choose which ones. Tutankhamen tomb is for an extra charge, but both Ahmed and Said warned us not to go there as there is nothing to see inside. We let Said pick the tombs and we were not disappointed. All 3 of them were beautifully decorated. Be aware of local "helpers" inside of them offering to take pictures of you or explaining the carvings as they do it for tips/baksisch. Just ignore them politely and they let you be. Said will tell you all about the tombs beforehand anyway. After the Valley of Kings you will be driven to local alabaster workshop/overpriced tourist trap shop. I don't know how optional this experience is, but do avoid it if you can. There are pushy salesmen inside and we were guilt tripped to buy some statues from the initial price of 3500 LE for 1000 LE after one of them chased us outside. You can buy the same ones in Hurghada for 500 LE or less. Of course they will try to justify the high prices with the "quality of workmanship and material used" speech. Avoid if you can. Last stop was a Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut. It is a beautiful temple with some nice statues, columns and carvings and Said explained the whole history to us. Beware of the "helpers" again as they will demand tips by just talking to you. It was a nice ending to an awesome tour. We dropped off Said shortly after and started heading to Hurghada where we arrived shortly before 6:30 pm as promised by Ahmed. Apart from the beautiful sites he was the highlight of our tour. You will struggle to find a more kind hearted and quirky (in a good way) guy and we enjoyed his company and driving very much. If it wasn't for him, we would rate this tour a star lower.

Amazing trip 👍👌🤗 - We had an incredible experience on our private tour, thanks to our fantastic driver, Ahmed. He was the most driven and dedicated driver we could ask for, expertly managing our schedule to ensure we were always the first at each checkpoint. His commitment and passion for his work were evident, and he made us feel welcome with his warm personality and generous spirit. Ahmed's English was excellent, and he was always ready to share insights and answer any questions we had. We truly wish there were more drivers like him on our holiday! Our tour guide, Said, was equally impressive. His deep knowledge of Egypt's history enriched our experience immensely. Thanks to our early start, we were able to explore before the crowds and the heat set in, making for a much more enjoyable day. We highly recommend this tour and this company! Kind regards, Martin and Lubica (Habiba)

Awesome tour trip - Our driver arrived on time in an air conditioned minivan stoked with snacks and drinks. As we set off Ahmed our driver was full of information about what was going to happen on our journey and made us feel at ease straight away and even put a film on for our 8 year old. He said we would be the first bus to get to Luxor and he was rite. He handed us over to our tour guide said who was very friendly also and extremely knowledgeable on everything Egypt and its history. He was very helpful patient and we were put under no rush. When our tour was over he made sure we were back on our bus safe and with all our belongings and made sure we had no last questions. Back with Ahmed whom said he would get us back to our hotel before 5:30 and true to his word with beauty and the beast on the 14 inch screen we were on our way with lots of water very tasty orange juice and a few snacks we were back on time with plenty of time to shower for dinner. Thanks guys. Can’t recommend you two enough. Till next time

Interesting and fun trip to Luxor! - Hello friends, this tour and service was excellent, excellent, excellent! From the contact correspondence the day before and on the actual tour. We had Ahmed as our driver, who picked us up on time and early so that we could avoid all traffic and get to Luxor for 9am where we met Said our tour guide. Both Ahmed and Said were friendly and looked after us just like family. We throughly enjoyed the day and Said had a wealth of knowledge, spoke excellent English and gave us all of the details. We started off the day at the Kanak temple where Said laid the foundations for the rest of the day, explaining the history of the relevant pharaohs as well as providing general information about how the temples were built. Following this, we had lunch on the bank of the Nile, where the staff were excellent. As well as this, there was a range of foods, meaning something for everyone. Next, we went on a Nile cruise, where once again Said imparted his knowledge, talking about how the Nile was used historically as well as information about it now. We then arrived at the Valley of the Kings, where we trusted Said's judgement on which tombs to visit, which proved beneficial, as not only had he picked the most interesting and well preserved ones, he was able to supply us with an abundance of information. We then headed to an alabaster factory and finally another temple, before rounding off the day. The van we were provided with had wifi, a TV, AC, as well as free snacks and drinks throughout the day! Ahmed was a very safe and reliable driver, helping us reach all of our destinations before peak visiting hours; and Said was an excellent guide who helped the day run smoothly. We highly commend both Ahmed and Said for making this such an enjoyable and interesting trip!!

Luxor Sightseeing - Excellent hospitality, Ahmed’s attention to detail is phenomenal from first communication to arrival back at the hotel. His minivan has an abundance of snacks and cold drinks as well as WiFi and a tv. With the heat Ahmed also treats you to ice cream. With all of these facilities the long journey does not feel long at all. Once in Luxor we were greeted by our guide Said whose knowledge was full of facts of information. He stayed with us throughout the whole day imparting knowledge of key events. If you are wanting to visit Luxor I would highly recommend Ramashka tours, Ahmed times the itinerary to ensure you miss the crowds and always managed to be one of the first to arrive at each of the venues. The Valley of the Kings is a must see as walking in the tombs is simply mind blowing.

Amazing trip in Luxor - It was a beautiful experience especially with the best guide Said and the best driver Hamed who made this incredible. Thanks again for their kindness and generosity! I recommand !

An extraordinary journey into the past - It was an incredible experience and the best we've had in Egypt. We would like to thank Said and Ahmid for their involvement, kindness and excellent service throughout the day. The places we visited were incredible and an absolute must. We highly recommend it. There was everything, wifi, TV in the car, drinks we left and arrived on time (even in advance). We had a lot of freedom in the organization of our day

Great Private Tour - Ahmed picked us up promptly at 5am. He was a great driver, and he was well prepared with drinks, snacks, WiFi, TV etc. We were the first tourist van from Hurghada to arrive. Sa‘id was also a great tour guide and well informed. He shared with us the relevant background information and key sights, giving us options for add-ons but never pushy. Akmed brought us back early based on our wishes (only seeing sights, no shops), so back at hotel at 5pm. Exactly the tour and service we wanted.
