Truthfully, the experience was great with Barry and Ahmed as the driver. Barry was funny and knowledgeable for sure. The tour was great throughout especially the Temple Island of Philae with the Motorboat ride (included but tip is not included for the boat master). Lunch was good for most regards (drinks not included). Otherwise, good trip from Luxor.
Barry gives you two options to take the road down to Aswan, the highway that includes toll fees which would cut down by 2 hours or the local road which would be a very long trip down one way. If you choose the highway, be prepared to give 500 egy pounds (roundtrip).
Also be prepared to tip extra for the guide and driver.
