2 Day Short Break in Luxor Package

The warmth of the people of Luxor was shown by the company representative Mohamed, driver Saleh and the very knowledgeable guide Ahmed. Although it was Eid holidays, Mohamed took his time out to be with us and Ahmed gave us a fantastic trip to the West Bank on day 1 and East bank on day 2. The tombs at the Valley of Kings and temple of Hatshepsut were explained in detail including quite some intricate pieces. Karnak temple was more than amazing and Ahmed again went to lengths to explain all the different aspects of the temple. We had an awesome time in Luxor. Do take some time to spend at the souq for some very good bargains.

Meravigliose le tombe nella Valle dei Re. Anche i templi di karnak e Luxor sono di una grandezza e maestosità inaspettate. Luxor nel complesso ci è piaciuta molto. L’ambiente è molto più accogliente e tranquillo rispetto al capso del Cairo. Anche il contatto con la natura, il Nilo, i tramonti.. tutto è molto rilassante. L’albergo Iberotel veramente bello e confortevole, giardino curatissimo con piscina sul Nilo. Ottima anche la Guida Ramadan, preparata e con un buon italiano. Professionale l’autista Salah e preciso nell’organizzare il tutto il referente dell’agenzia a Luxor sig. Mohamed. Una bella esperienza di viaggio!

After being let down by our UK travel agent at the last minute, we flew to Cairo and arranged our trips once there. We were so lucky to have found pyramid. They catered for us at the last minute. Mohammed and Mahmoud collected us from the airport in a clean, comfortable air conditioned car. They were on time for our flight and clearly visible to us at the airport. We had arranged one night in a hotel in Luxor before travelling to Aswan to join a short river cruise. Mohammed and Mahmoud took us to our overnight hotel and collected us the following morning for our train journey. Mohammed arranged our train tickets and saw us safely to our train. When we returned to Luxor we were met at our boat by ms Ghada for our tour of Luxor. We visited the valley of the kings, valley of the Queens, Karnak and Luxor temple. What an excellent guide she was and a thoroughly nice lady. Again we had a very clean air conditioned car with a safe and steady driver. Ghada was extremely knowledgeably about the sites we visited and was able to answer all of our questions. We were with her for the day and she took us to a fabulous local restaurant. Having the small private tour meant that we were not continuously waiting for other people and could easily move back and forth and change our schedule to avoid crowds. Our tour finished at 4pm and we were due to fly back to Cairo on a 10pm flight. At no extra cost to us, pyramid tours booked us a room in a 5 star hotel so that we could shower and get some rest after our long day. It was needed and very much appreciated. Later that evening mohammed and Mahmoud returned on time to collect us and take us to the airport. I cannot recommend this company enough they gave us all that we asked for and more. Polite. Friendly, knowledgable, clean air conditioned vehicles and a very safe and sensible driver. PS - they were always very happy to help take photos ????
