Tour to Luxor from Hurghada on your bucketlist - The Luxor trip from Hurghada was awesome. Our tour guide Mr. Nessar was very friendly and knowledgeable about his Egyptian history. The tour company was on time to pick us up at our hotel. We had great lunch and for an extra €10pp we went to visit the banana island to feed the Monkeys which was ok but not extra ordinary as being sold. The ride down the Nile river was def amazing and that would be enough to cool of from the heat, it felt like going down in history as it would have been in the Time when the Pharaohs ruled. The temple of King Ramses and King Tut was nice. The visit to the Valley of the King's was def worthed. For an extra €35 for two persons we were allowed to enter the tomb of King Tut to see his Mummy. Advisable is the visit during the time of the year, now in June the weather was extremely hot 41⁰C we had 3 sights to visit by the time we got to Valley of the King's I was drained off my energy and already drank plenty of water to keep hydrated. I do believe that around September to February the weather should be a bit better. But a must see and bucket list worthed. Any museum around the world can never top this excursion.

Awesome Visit to Luxor - My husband and I had the most amazing time on this trip from start to finish. We would like to give more than 5 stars if we could.😊
Egypt Voyage and Team were wonderful!
They made our trip to Egypt more memorable .
Their communication was excellent! Mr. Ali reached out to us a couple of times before the trip to make sure everything was fine. Pick up was prompt and Eid , our Driver , was nice and pointed out important locations on our way to Hurghada to meet the bus.
Our Tour Guide, Eslam was excellent and very pleasant , ready to answer all our questions. Ahmed , our Driver, and Mohammad were patient and wonderful. Roman, our Local Tour Guide , was very knowledgeable and explained everything to us in detail . He did not make us feel rushed at all.
The buffet lunch at the Hawaiian Restaurant was delicious. They offered different kinds of Egyptian food.
The boat ride along the Nile River going to the Valley of the Kings was a treat!
All in all, it was awesome, we had so much fun and it was a perfect day.
Thank you very much! We will recommend Egypt Voyage to our family and friends.

Strongly recommend - This trip was long and the day was very hot. Luxor is an amazing place, and really, I would recommend seeing it. I booked my trip through my hotel tour guide, Mohamed Alkady
He did organise absolutely everything for us and we were very well informed
He even organised for us a breakfast to go from the hotel.
I travelled with my 2 teenagers. The trip was long but comfortable. Just enough stops and resting points. For the price I paid, we have had everything included and lunch provided. All the trip we had a guide who was really good and told us a lot of interesting facts about Egypt
I will strongly recommend Sun International for turism and Mohamed Alkady.
I already booked more with them 😀

Eye opener - Superb day out to see history as it was. It is 4 hours from Hurgada. The tour company we went with TUI really looked after us, like puttin the 8 of us all English speaking together. The guide had thorough knowledge

Great - But be prepared - It was a brilliant experience, albeit scorching. The bus was air conditioned which was an absolute lifesaver and we met some lovely people on the tour.
There was never enough time to spend at any of the promised stops. And we were made to stop at an alabaster shop which nobody wanted instead of getting a proper photo opportunity for the collusi of memnon.
Even the valley of the kings was a whistle stop tour with having to basically run in and out of only three tombs.
There was finally Nile Boat ride which was effectively forced on us for an additional €15 per person. Which wasn’t mentioned in the programme. It was a brilliant experience but paying more when we had a specific itinerary was not very good.
We did have a good day, but this was spoiled by being rushed around, paying extra and tour operators getting quite annoyed when you didn’t want to pay extra for something

Good experience - It was overall a great trip. However I suggest for your operate to provide complimentary water for people. We don’t all have 2 dollars or euros for a bottle of water. I almost passed out from heat and dehydration.

A trip I will never forget - I wouldn't recommend travelling by bus as it took 5 hrs each way. Plane would be my preference next time even if more expensive.
Picked up from hotel at correct time, travel guide was excellent.
At Luxor the new guide wasn't there to meet us abd we had yo wait 25mins in 46 degree temperatures. He raced us around Karnok Temple, shouting for us to hurry up. I myself have a knee and leg problem and 2 ladies in our group had a walking aid!
For the whole of the tour he seemed to be racing around, not allowing us time to take the pictures we needed. Visiting Luxor is a once in a lifetime chance for us and we wanted to enjoy it.
He even asked if we could use our credit card to pay for the whole group to enter Valley of the Kings as his card " didn't have enough credit". This I found totally unprofessional!
He was very knowledgeable and chatty and did slow down towards the end of the tour.
I was pleased I went on this tour and would use Viator again, but the guide needs to appreciate the age group of the people pn his tour and the ability to walk in that 46 degree heat.

Not recommended - Our tour consisted of the 6 people in our group - 4 adults and 2 toddlers- and 2 people from another hotel. Our guide was not very informative and rushed through the sites without giving time to take photos. We were told there would be time on the way out of the temples/tombs but he never stopped to allow it. We had to race to keep up and the kids basically got dragged along so we didn't lose sight of him. He straight up lied to us about the opening time of the restaurant for lunch by telling us it didn't open until 1230 so we would stop at an oil/perfume factory until the restaurant was open. When we politely refused, magically the restaurant was open at 1130, and we were not the first guests. He also was not informative about taking/leaving our bags and how long we would be away from the van. The vendors at the sites were very pushy and annoying (not the fault of the tour but certainly didn't add any positive emotions to the day). We ended the day at the Valley of the Kings - about 130pm- and after a morning of running around in the heat, we went inside one tomb and didn't bother with the rest due to being tired and hot. This tour would benefit from reorganization and seeing the valley of the kings first in the morning when it's cooler and people have more energy and willingness to spend extra money to see King Tut's tomb. We were not impressed at all with the quality of this tour and would not recommend it.
