So I'll start with the only negative, this is a long assed day! We were the first pick up, 3:45 and got back about 10:30pm! As for the rest, we booked the day before the trip, had a WhatsApp text within an hour, and they answered a few questions for us straight away. Pick up time was text and emailed at 6pm, communication was brilliant, drivers were great, our guide Nana, was amazing, felt so luck to get her, so friendly and knowledagble, and gave us warnings of all the tourist traps and nonsense some guides may tell tourists! We were given a few snacks, plenty of cold water, lunch was a Buffett and decent. The whole day ran like clockwork, just no waiting for anything no time lost or wasted. The sights themselves were just incredible, obviously. Couldn't reccomend these guys highly enough just super professional.

We went on a daytrip from hurghada to Luxor and our group was in total 14 people. We were with 2. Me and my boyfriend. I really recommend this organization! The van was good (with airco) and we had 2 drivers, one named Ismael/Asmaa and both the drivers were very nice and also very funny! Our guide that showed us The karnak temple, Valley of the kings etc was Hoda. She was an amazing guide!!! Definitely recommend her! She gave us really good information, spoke English very well and very clear and she was very kind! She even gave us tips to protect us from the sellers that try to scam you at the shops. She also gave us after the information some time to explore on ourselves and take some pictures. She provided us every time with cooled water! (I think every person got like 5 bottles of water over the entire trip) and she also gave us an Ice cream and a little candy at the end! Tip: don’t buy any souvenirs at toilet stops the sellers will try to scam you.

Six hours travelling to Luxor without any interesting commenty on the journey was a shame. Guide was very knowledgeable with a lot to say in very short spaces of time which is difficult to take in. There is a saying in English guiding, "Give me the facts but spare the detail" which could apply to a day trip like this.
