We had an absolutely great time in Egypt due to Abdul / King Tut Tours and his team. We booked a customised package with Abdul, and he not only took care of our time in Luxor, but also arranged tours for us in Cairo and in Aswan.
All our tours were private and the pricing was very reasonable for it. For us it was a really nice feeling to know that everything is well-taken care of and we don’t have to worry about anything and can just enjoy our time. In general, I absolutely recommend booking a guide in Egypt - many sites don’t really have a lot of explanations and signs, so if you really want to understand a site, you do need a guide to explain things to you.
In the Luxor area we had the same driver and guide for three days, which was a very pleasant experience because you get used to the person. The guide, Abdul’s cousin Isa, was knowledgeable but above all extremely funny and we had a great time with him. Our driver was also a very warm and loving person.
Even the small things like the lunches in between were very well organised, we received so much water through out the day.
Our special highlight was the hot air balloon ride over Luxor. Abdul has his own team, and we were slightly anxious to do this but we’re felt super safe during the whole trip.
Unfortunately we had to leave Egypt early due to a family emergency, and again Abdul and his team took such great care of us, thought along with us on how we can return to the Netherlands as quickly as possible and gave us so much truly heartfelt support. It really touched us to feel everyone’s compassion. We truly feel like we have a group of friends in Egypt now. I could not recommend Abdul and his team enough.
