3 Days: Aswan, Abu simble,Air Balloon,Luxor, from Cairo by plane

SPLENDOR IN EGYPT Review of Oxen of Egypt Samar was our guide for the temples of Luxor, Karnak, and Habu as well as the tombs in the Valley of the Kings and Valley of the Nobles and a variety of sites between Luxor and Abu Simbel, including the Aswan. Samar’s open and joyous personality (and humor) alone made the tour thoroughly enjoyable, and her knowledge and presentation elevated the excursion to a higher level. She conveyed information in impeccable English. Her mastery of Egyptian history is expansive, enthusiastic, and not only includes description and interpretation but a deep appreciation of the art. She was tour guide and art docent but quickly also became a friend. Samar was sensitive to the group’s needs, providing an immersive experience of Egyptian life while still affording us “free” time to do things on our own or relax. She negotiated with vendors to ensure that we bought souvenirs at a fair price. She brough her joie de vive to the occasion and ensued that we fell in love with Egyptian culture and cuisine. Frankly, Samar became our favorite tour guide across our many years of travel. Visitors who engage her services will be lucky indeed.

I had the absolute pleasure of being guided by Samar visiting Luxor sites. She is the perfect guide! So knowledgeable and Truly passionate which comes across in her delivery of the history and the stories. She speaks perfect English, is warm, friendly and witty. Her pace of delivery is excellent allowing time to look around and to take photos. Samar also gave advice about the does and don’ts whilst in Egypt, taxi prices etc. I would highly recommend Samar to anyone visiting Egypt and will definitely be arranging other tours on my return.

Samar est une excellente guide… Elle donne l’information pertinente sans toute fois nous bourrer le crane.. elle rend la visite intéressante, relax et amusante. Elle est à l’écoute de nos besoins et adapte la visite en conséquence. Je crois que quiconque veut visiter Luxor et ses environs seront choyés d’avoir Samar comme guide. De plus, l’anglais de Samar est excellent ce qui facilite la compréhension des superbes histoires égyptiennes qu’elle sait si bien nous raconter.
