Jun 25, 2024My wife and I purchased this tour from Egypt Tours Club one month before our travel. Everything was handled with perfection including pre-trip confirmation, hotel pick up, flight arrangements from Cairo and pickup in Luxor. We were picked up by Ibriham early morning and he was very welcoming and informative. Our guide in Luxor was amazing! Ash spoke perfect English and was extremely knowledgeable about everything. He was also very candid and forthcoming about discussing religion, politics and economics. Excellent service! We felt safe and comfortable the entire tour. I recommend this tour and company without reservation. Thanks to everyone, especially our guide Ash, for a wonderful day. We also ran into Ibriham in Alexandria and he made it a point to say hello. Great people!
