After initially a misunderstanding and incorrect cancellation, Tours Marsa Alam made a huge effort to make our tour happen.
They stayed in very close contact with us, arranged alternative transportation to Luxor, we met with our guide, Ahmed, who spoke excellent English, was very knowledgeable and very kind. He provided plenty of water, soft drinks and fruit.
We had an excellent day visiting the Temple of Karnak, the Colossi of Memnon and the Valley of the Kings.
The food provided (we ended up having a packed lunch due to time constraints) was excellent Egyptian food, very very tasty.
Thank you very much for a great day.

Al met al een prima dag. Werden keurig opgehaald bij het hotel om 3:50 door Ahmet en Ghalil, welk echt 2 toppers zijn! Trip van 5 en een half uur, waarbij de eerste 3 uur door de woestijn waren en er een goede weg was. Laatste anderhalf uur echter over een weg met vele drempels en busjes die elkaar te pas en te onpas inhalen, mocht je las hebben van wagenziekte is dit een zwaar gedeelte. Eenmaal in Luxor zijn we begonnen met de Karnak tempel, waarbij we ook onze privegids ontmoetten, welk ons rondleidde en een ander koppel. De tempel en sfinxen zijn prachtig. Nadeel hier was dat de gids allemaal extra's probeert aan te smeren, waarbij je online al had aangegeven dit niet te willen. Daarnaast zat er een oversteek over de Nijl inbegrepen bij de trip met een motorboot, maar ook deze probeerde hij nog te verkopen voor 20 euro per persoon. Anders zou je 45 minuten om moeten rijden. Na Karnak gingen we naar een atelier, waarbij ze je kunst willen verkopen (stond niet in omschrijving van de tour). Niet boeiend, maar wel zonde van de tijd. Daarna gingen we richting het restaurant met boot, zonder te betalen. Al was dit dezelfde boottrip die hij ons eerst nog wilde aansmeren. Lunch was een klein buffet. Hierna zijn we nog naar de vallei der Koningen en Hatshepsut gegaan. Hier mag de gids enkel aan het begin zijn praatje doen en niet mee naar binnen. Vervolgens gingen we nog naar een kunstgalerij toe, waarbij ze ook weer hoopten dat je wat zou kopen. Ook dit was zonde van de tijd en stond niet aangegeven in de omschrijving van de trip. Als laatste gingen we nog naar de Colossen van Memnon en namen afscheid van de gids. Na een lange terugreis, waarbij er gelukkig minder verkeer op de weg was, kwamen we om 22:10 weer aan in ons hotel. Een Felucca trip zou ik dan ook zeker niet aanraden aangezien je dan nog later terugbent.
Communicatie vanuit Marsa Alam Tours kan echter flink verbeterd worden. Zo moet je zelf contact met ze opnemen betreffende de trip 1 a 2 dagen van te voren. Daarnaast geven ze aan dat ze een dag van tevoren contactinformatie van de chauffeurs en de gids zouden sturen, echter nooit ontvangen.
