Amazing Luxor Your - Amazing places we have visited. All Luxor's places we have visited are incredible. We would love to have much more time to visit with more calm. As 1 day trip you will visit the most important parts and be ready to hurry up as you don't have much time to spend around as you need to jump for the other point. For the price, its worth each penny I have spent. I would recommend to do in smaller groups, so you can have much more info from your guide.

We loved the guide but 2 extra stops didn't make us happy. - *if you want to know about 2 stops not mentioned in the description read last paragraph* The tour was amazing we loved our guide Mimo. He did such a good job it was admirable. I also found his passion for the job inspiring. Esso tours you better appreciate this man! If it weren't for him this would not be a 5 star review! (Also the polish speaking guide seemed nice) The tour was really neatly organized we liked it except for one thing. There were 2 stops not mentioned in the description. First one was stop at alabaster workshop. Unpleasant tourist trap. The second one was a boat trip on a river Nile during sunset. It was really beautiful but unfortunately short and most of the time we spend at local farm with a little zoo. The poor animals were kept in unpleasant conditions. It made us sad. If only the boat ride was longer maybe with few more stops... I really want to stress out how beautiful it is to be on a boat on a river Nile during a sunset. It costs 13 eur extra and an alternative is to wait one hour in a bus... They take you around 5:00 from the hotel and take you back around 10:00pm. So it's a long day most of it on the sun it's exhausting. From my perspective they should make the tour shorter get rid of all the unnecessary stops. Or spend more time at the monuments. Only because our guide was such a lovely person you are receiving 5 star review.

Exciting Egyptian Adventure: History, Temples, and Fantastic Guide - What an amazing trip! Our guide shared loads of information about Egypt's history, and he was always there to help whenever we needed it. We got to visit all the temples and facilities with plenty of time to spare. Lunch was good, offering something for everyone. We highly recommend this excursion for an exciting and enjoyable experience!

A good day out- well worth it - This was an excellent, if long day trip. But it was well worth the early start and late finish. Our guides was extremely knowledgeable and friendly and managed the trip in English and French as a family had booked at short notice who preferred French. We were given an excorted tour at Karnak, a quick look over the fence at luxor temple, boat ride to cross the Nile (extra as described $10each). This trip stopped off at Banana Island where we were offered fruit an chance to see a caged Nile crocodile, baby camel and feed baboons. Not up to western ethical animal standards we felt this a bit inhumane for the conditions the animals were kept in, but at the same time understandcthis is a different country and culture. Lunch did not really cater for a vegetarian diet either. Prior to Valley of the Kings, we were taken to an alabaster factory where as is the norm we have discovered, the locals tried the hard sell. This is not unique to this tour but you need to be ready to refuse almost to the point of being rude- so many street sellers. Valley of the Kings and the temple of Queen Hatshetsut was outstanding and we asked to visit the tomb of Tutankhamen which is also extra, but worth it. Be ready to tip the guards if yhe help you with photos- and just look out of the bus window as you drive up the Nile Valley to see why the locals are so desperate for foreign £/€/$. There is a lot of poverty here if viewing from a Western perspective. Other points- the bus is a big coach with mixed nationality goups- Russian, German and English speaking on our tour. And you heed to pay for water on the coach. It was run efficiently and wr would highly recommend for inquisitive families who want a day away from the beach/ pool.

Very good though - Incredible excursion thanks to Farid, a wonderful guide. The only downside, we were dependent on the majority group at the time (the Russians) and as a result we were constantly in a hurry to move forward through them....very unfortunate

A little disappointed - Magnificent landscape and monuments. We spent more time on the bus than on the visits. In addition, the guide promised us a trip on the Nile in a felucca even though it was a motor boat. It was not correct. Apart from that, I can only recommend visits to the different sites
