The driver you need in Luxor - We had an exceptional experience with Ali in Luxor. We were initially only supposed to spend one day with him and ended up using his services almost every day of our stay. Ali is attentive, his knowledge of Luxor, his recommendations of restaurants and places to visit made our stay unforgettable. Thanks to its boats, we both made crossings to the West bank, but also enjoyed a magnificent sunset during a felucca ride. Ali also organized a hot air balloon trip for us. His hospitality, punctuality and advice are the key to a successful trip! We highly recommend Ali to anyone who wants to explore Luxor in an authentic and enriching way, sometimes getting away from the very touristy places. Thanks for everything Ali!

Good tour and customer service by Ali! - I'm a personal travel agent and booked this trip for some customers of mine. They loved the tour on the Nile other than the care and attention received by Ali who provided and excellent customer service and communication (both with the customers and me). I fully recommend this local agent! Thanks again Ali! ;-)

Ali is amazing - Ali was a fantastic tour guide. We first met him as we did a Felucca Sunset ride with his nephew who was also very nice! For the day after, Ali took us to visit the West Bank and all important attractions. He was very informative, honest and trustworthy. He provided great guidance about what sites to prioritize as we only had one day in Luxor. His car has A/C which was definitely a plus, and he also has a boat that can take you from east to west and viceversa. He is very flexible, even volunteered to drive us to Aswan then Abu Simbel! Highly recommend!!!

Felucca ride on the river Nile to Banana Island (2 hrs) - Did the evening Felucca River Nile Cruise & visited Banana Island. Ali was incredibly informative & hospitable & it was an over all great evening. My friend & I are allergic to banana, so instead of having the locally grown bananas, we were given watermelon instead. The sunset we were able to watch from the Felucca was beautiful. Certainly something I would recommend to anyone considering a trip on the River Nile or visiting Banana Island.

Lovely sunset felucca ride along the Nile - Ali and Mahmoud were spectacular! We had a very nice 2 hour ride on their boat at sunset which included a short stop to Banana Island. Ali was pleasant and gave us some history about the landmarks we passed while Mahmoud steered the boat. We were even treated to some mint tea, which was made over an open flame while on the boat! Great experience and great price!
