My friend and I had one day to visit Luxor and chose Marsa Alam Tours. The good price, reviews, and private tour first attracted us, and the service really exceeded expectations. We booked the tour the day before, and they were fantastic with reaching out quickly to coordinate all the details. Both our driver, Amr, and our guide, Mohammed, were very knowledgeable and friendly and worked with us to tailor the experience to what we most wanted to see (Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Valley of the Kings, and the Alabaster shop were my faves). Mohammed even helped us avoid pushy souvenir shop workers and with haggling when we did find stuff we wanted to avoid the tourist up-charge (although all souvenir shops along the way are extremely overpriced). I would highly recommend them for those looking for a more personalized tour!

We had two magnificent days out with Shimiaa in the Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut - and then in Karnak and Luxor Temple. Finished up with a felucca on the Nile. Shimiaa has great wit, is extremely energetic and knowledgeable and makes you feel at ease at once. She knows the area like the back of her hand and is steeped in Egyptology so can answer any question. In such an important and breathtaking place it is important to have a guide to match the magnitude of the sites - and Shimiaa is just that. Can't thank her enough for making our trip so memorable.

This tour is amazing, I would totally recommend it to family and friends! We had the chance to explore all the temples from Aswan, Abu Simbel to Luxor. Our guide Ramzy was a key part to make this trip unforgettable, he was very knowledgeable and always willing to answer all the questions we had about the history of the temples. He was always with us and made sure that we had the best experience. The cruise was really nice too, the room was well equipped and the staff were very helpful and friendly.

It was a great experience sailing the Nile and it is something that you must do. But when you are doing this with a great guide and great tour operator then everything is amazing. We travelled on a small-group Nile Cruise with Mody Tours. From start to finish, Mody Tours was by far the most accommodating tour operator and Ahmed answered many questions for us and made us feel very secure and confident. We have to especially thank Hany, our group Egyptologist and Tour Guide, who was super kind, helpful and very funny. Also he was well informed about the places we’ve been visiting and he explained beautifully all the historical information. He was willing to help us with everything we may needed and he made us feel very good (even if we were travelling with 2 young children and we had some difficulties). Finally he has been arranging for us a testing (PCR) in the most comfortable way, the sample has been taken from the hotel. (Just keep in mind that is very expensive around 2100 Egyptian pounds, nothing to do with the operator). So we highly recommend Mody Tours, Hany and Ahmed. They all made our cruise an unforgettable experience!!!! This country has stolen our heart and we will definitely return to Egypt. Thank you!!!! السلامة

You can't dislike an snorkeling experience that drops you in the midst of a large (approximately 60) pod of dolphins. The experience is exhilarating. And you also have the experience of snorkeling at a dramatically beautiful reef. I would probably do it again. But do know several things. First, while my group got very lucky, I was told that tourists see dolphins about 30-40% of the time. So prepare for a VERY long boat ride that might disappoint you. Second, to ensure that your boat ride to the reef consumes 1.5---not 2 or more--hours, I would INSIST that my boat have twin engines. The boat I rode was an 80 foot behemoth with a single engine that pushed us at no more than 8-10 knots: ridiculously slow for such a long ride. In the end, my group spent 10 hours "getting somewhere" (i.e. from hotel to boat, then boat to reefs) for a grand total of 1.5 hours in the water. (It didn't help that upon returning to the dock, we had to walk 5-7 minutes in hot sun to the van because the tour operator did not want to pay the 185 egp to pick us up at the dock. Not very classy.) Two more points: pickup from your hotel is VERY early (mine was at 5 am) and no food is provided until well after noon. So have your hotel pack a breakfast or bring your own. Lunch, however, is a nice combination of meats and salads, though drinks are limited to sugary sodas, water, and coffee. Second, as on my Hamata islands snorkeling tour, guides want to shepherd the group around quickly; if you are an experienced snorkeler, tell them that, ditch the guides, and explore the coral on your own. It will be a much more memorable experience. One more thing, if you get lucky and see dolphins, have your camera battery charged for both video and still shots.
