Review of a 2-day Hurghada to Luxor tour with a sunrise balloon ride, temples, tombs, felucca cruise, hotel, meals, and private guide.

“Today was the second day of our tour in Luxor with the Magic Guide (Aladin). We visited the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and the Colossi of Memnon, and the whole experience was truly fascinating. Our guide explained every detail and shared the full history behind each site and the different tombs. He highlighted the most impactful ones to visit, which made the experience even more meaningful and enriching. We also had the chance to see how local artisans create beautiful objects from natural stones, which was incredibly interesting and unique to witness. A truly impressive day — full of culture, history, and amazing insights. Highly recommended!”

Ahmed (Luxor/ 2 days): Was extremely informative and passionate when he told his stories. He was receptive whenever we had questions and always looked out for our best interests. Marcos (Aswan/2 days): Made our trip super convenient and went off without a hitch. He ensured we never were swindled during purchases, had a wealth of knowledge and had a great sense of humor.
