We booked a private boat with Dua. She was an awesome tour guide. She explained the history of the village and the Nubian culture. It’s a way to cool off.

Beauty Egypt Travel. The people from here were very nice, took care of me and got me around the city. The guide was Bassem Khames - very knowledgeable with higher education in Tourism and Archeology and who knew many languages including English and French. He took me to the Valley of the Kings – west and east bank and he taught me many facts about the Egyptian architecture, hieroglyphs, customs and habits and took me nice pictures in the temples. And he was also an Orthodox like me ???? it was nice to find people with same religion and habits as in Romania. He also took me to see some local original alabaster family business where I bought beautiful and good quality statues – 6 small statues for 100$. Furthermore, I would like to thank also Ahmed Rauoof – another representative of the Beauty Egypt Travel – that took good care of me and made me feel safe. He also has higher education – went to the Higher Institute for Tourism and Hotels EGOTH and knows a lot of things about history and culture. Ahmed took me to the Karnak temple Sound and Light show (waited for me and assured I have a good time), Banana Island (he explained the customs, described and presented me the famous ships that are sailing on the Nile and took me nice photos everywhere), helped me arrange the Luxor balloon tour and took me from and to the Luxor airport – he assured I am ok and all my check-in procedures were fine.

Your expert guide provides the essential context so you get the most from the flight. Take to the skies and experience the region by the light of sunrise as you glide over landmarks in a hot air balloon. Acquire necessary safety guidelines prior to your ride, then float up hundreds of feet. Observe the complex of temples and chapels at Karnak to the east, then cast your eyes to the west for views of Hatshepsut Temple in its dramatic spot at the foot of colossal cliffs. Spy the Colossi of Memnon rising up and seemingly guarding royal tombs. With informative historical and cultural narratives from your guide, gain a fantastic perspective of the ancient sites and magnitude of Luxor.

I highly recommend taking this trip by plane. We booked less than 2 days in advance, there were almost no tickets left. We had business class seats to go. My name was wrong so I had to buy another ticket at the airport, maybe last seat on the plane. The agency was fair and deducted the amount from the total price agreed, very correct! From there, everything went very smooth. We were expected at the airport in Cairo by our guide Zenab and our driver. We had a private tour just for ourselves. We could go at our own pace. Zenab was a great guide and person. She was very welcoming and did her best to please us at all times. Overall, I totally recommend this travel agency, they are very thrust worthy and will guide you from and back to your hotel entrance. Thank you!!
