Ultimate Luxor: Private Balloon, Temples & Nile from Hurghada

Today we made the daytour from Hurghada to Luxor. Picked up right on time by Achmed. He drives very well and neat After the ballontour, we met our guide for the day, Hamdy. Hamdy is a very nice man, who knows everything and gives you a lot of information. The combination Achmed en Hamdy is highly recommendable. When you stay in Hurghada dont't hesitate tp book this trip.

Jackie took us to 5 sites that were great. She was so amazing at explaining what we were about to see. She also went out of her way to keep us in the shade and happy at all times. I was actually surprised by her deep and interesting knowledge of what we were about to look at or looking at. I have traveled to over 30 countries and been on many tours and without a doubt my favorite is Jackie. I normally do not “ever” write a review but for Jackie I am very happy to do so. Also Ronnie our drive was great. Eric Gray

I bought this tour via Revolut (viator operated) but both sites don’t give the ótimo to review, ir must be a bug or something but I’d like that this review appears there too. Everything went as planned and the hotel was very nice, such as the workers there. They were very caring. I want to highlight the work of Hassan (our guide) and driver. The driver was always very kind, helpful and available, he was never late. Hassan is an Egyptologist with many years of experience, and he explained the history of the temples to us in a very clear way. He is also a very funny and friendly gentleman who welcomed us warmly and took us to places where we didn’t see any other tourists, which truly shows that he knows Luxor better than anyone. On top of that, he was always available to chat and answer our questions. I also want to highlight the care and thoughtfulness he showed when choosing local restaurants and food for us, since we are veganand everything was wonderful! Without a doubt, it is worth booking a tour with Hassan. I’m certain that no website on the internet could teach me the things he did! If you want an authentic luxor tour, book with Hassan, I promise you wont regret it.

Excellent trip with Manal. The temples were excellent, the hotel was comfortable and all staff were friendly, our guide was knowledgeable and efficient and the Valley for the Kings and hot air balloon ride were fantastic. We would definitely recommend this trip from Hurghada and we are so glad we didn't try to do everything in a single day.

Aladdin our tour guide was full of knowledge and gave us some great facts around the tours of the valley of the kings . Nothing was too much trouble ! Hassan our driver was very accommodating also , taking care to make sure we were comfortable and was both very friendly throughout the whole tour . Highly recommended!!! 10 out of 10!

Our stay in Luxor was both interesting and enriching in terms of discovery and culture. However, one major downside was the extra costs. Despite paying a very high price for just two days, we still had to pay additional fees to visit the most well-known temples and tombs. This was really disappointing, especially considering that in previous excursions — for which we paid much less — everything was included. That being said, I want to give a special mention to our guide, Pola. He was truly amazing — so kind, gentle, and patient. He explained everything we visited very clearly, and when we asked him to take us shopping for souvenirs, he didn’t hesitate to help us. He was honestly the best guide I had during my 10-day trip in Egypt. Another special mention goes to our driver (apologies, I forgot his name). The transfer from Hurghada to Luxor and back went very smoothly. The car was clean and air-conditioned, and the driver was very attentive and considerate. The only negative point was that he didn’t speak English, so we had to rely on Google Translate to communicate. Unfortunately, during the long stretches of the road trip where there was no signal, it became quite difficult. Otherwise, aside from these few negative points, everything went well. We didn’t follow the full program because it was simply too hot today.

We had a really good ans informative trip with our tour guide Alladdin. He was really helpful in guiding us and explaining all the history of the places we had been.

The trip was amazing. The guide and the driver did a excellent job showing us everything. The food was also pretty amazing

Fathy is a very knowledgeable friendly guide he brought all the temples to life for us. He was a brilliant guide 5 🌟 shame hot air balloon was cancelled.

The tour has been one of the best experience I have ever done! Aladdin was our guide for the two days, his knowledge of ancient Egypt history is impressive and he has answered all our questions. He has also taken amazing videos and pictures of us! He has been very accommodating with our requests and make sure we had everything we needed. Hassan was our driver for the tour and he has been very accommodating too asking us where we wanted to go after dinner. This tour is very worth for its money. The hotel we stayed in was lovely and we had dinner and lunch in two different places overseeing the Nile river and the food was delicious. We also did a felucca ride on the Nile which was very fun. We didn’t get to do the hot hair balloon ride due to high winds but this was no ones fault. Definitely recommended and again thank you Aladdin! 😁
