Private Tour nach Abu Simbl auf der Straße

Finding Oscar and LadyBird Egypt Tours was a stroke of sheer luck. Had planned a trip to Luxor and Abu Simbel with a friend and her daughter in Dec 22. It was self-planned and we decided to reach Luxor and plan the subsequent tours and the car bookings. However, we were under tremendous pressure from friends and family to have a pre booked vehicle to take us around. That’s when we started looking online for car rentals and tour companies in Luxor 2 days before our trip. LadyBird Egypt came up as no 8 in the top 10 Luxor based travel companies on Trip Advisor. However, what was interesting was the reviews that this company garnered. Most of the reviews were diverse and seemed genuine and one name that appeared over and over again and all for good reasons was that of Oscar. I contacted LadyBird on their official WhatsApp number and got connected to Ahmed. Ahmed was super prompt in his response and quickly connected us with his brother Oscar. We were very clear that we wanted Oscar with us if we booked the tour and they confirmed Oscar’s availability within the next 2 hours. Both Ahmed and Oscar were very transparent, upfront, prompt and extremely patient in answering all our queries and doubts. Oscar picked us up at Luxor airport and was with us constantly for the next 3 days. Our top reasons why we loved travelling with Oscar and Lady Bird Tour: • He was extremely punctual but allowed us the flexibility to take it easy when we needed it. Never rushed us to match his convenience • Fluent in English which was a huge plus since it made communication extremely easy • I had mentioned about my back injury and hence he provided us an entire Toyota Hiace for the whole trip. And we were only three of us. • His car was plush and spic and span on all three days. He provided us with water and snacks and made sure we carried them with us while getting off the car in the afternoon. • He is an excellent driver. We drove almost 1200 kms to and fro from Luxor to Abu Simbel and back on the same day. We started at 4 AM and reached back at around 9 PM driving in the dark for quite some time. He was in control and you felt safe even when he was manoeuvring in between trucks and buses at 120 kms/hour. • He kept a look out for you and ensured that you did not get bothered by hawkers, guides and shopkeepers. • Helped us negotiate the Egyptian price for food to souvenirs wherever he could • Connected us with good guides ( fluent and knowledgeable) and other activity partners like the felluca rides on Nile etc. • Open to feedback. He had connected us with a tour that conducts the hot air balloon rides and also another tour agency for our days in Cairo. Our hot balloon experience wasn’t that great and we found the Cairo tour to be expensive. He was open to our feedback about both of them and was not at all defensive. • Always around to ensure that we were safe but never intrusive or overbearing. • And a doting father who couldn’t stop talking about his five year old daughter Sophia.

Amazing experience! Clear instructions to follow. Salar Oscar was very helpful and he had a New nice clean Car! We really enjoyed it. Everything! It was beautiful. Excellent customer service. I will always use this company. Thank you so much for an amazing tour! Can't wait to go again!! ????????????

The experience is really worth it and Mike was actually the best guide we have found in Egypt. He has a great knowledge, was worried all the time about us being well and speaks English very fluently.
