Trip to Luxor (valley of the kings) - Had an amazing trip to Luxor and trip on the nile, we got picked up from the hotel early (5am) by a friendly driver who took us to luxor and picked our guide up near luxor.
Our guide, Mahmoud Issa, was very knowledgeable and friendly. we visited the valley of the kings (could not come and not see king tutankhamun), saw a demonstration of how they used to do the carvings, and then to Hatshepsut. After we had a lovely lunch and after we went off for a trip on the nile, we then went to Habu temple and it was amazing and still well preserved considering how old it is.
All in all, it was an amazing trip and would recommend it to anyone. Just don't underestimate how hot it will get.

Amazing Tour Operator - Amazing tour operator- I'm from the UK and contacted legacy tour a couple of months before I was due to travel to Egypt. I booked all my tours (family of 5) and airport transfers before hand - everything went smoothly, excellent communication throughout - picked up on time, no hidden extras, excellent prices - booked Safari quads/bedouin, scuba diving, orange Bay, Giza/Cairo Pyramids and Luxor/Valley of the Kings. Excellent customer service, guides and drivers - would 100% recommend
