We (1 adult with two children, aged 14 and 5) were lucky to enjoy this amazing private day tour from Hurghada to Luxor – and it was simply fantastic!
Our driver Ahmed was punctual, very friendly, and drove safely and comfortably – even our youngest had no problem with the early 4:30 a.m. departure. The vehicle was modern and comfortable, equipped with Wi-Fi and a TV, which made the long drive very enjoyable for all of us. We especially appreciated how attentive Ahmed was throughout the day: he always had chilled drinks and snacks ready – which was a real blessing in the Egyptian heat! Ahmed spoke very good English and some German, which was more than enough for smooth communication.
Another highlight of the day was our guide Ismail, who led us with deep knowledge, patience, and warmth. The entire tour was conducted in German, and Ismail spoke excellent German, which made it easy for both me and the children to follow and enjoy the historical context.
We visited so many incredible places, including the impressive Temple of Karnak, the Papyrus Museum, a peaceful Nile boat ride, a buffet lunch at the Hawaiian Restaurant, the Colossi of Memnon, the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and an alabaster workshop – where we were especially amused by the local stonemasons happily practicing their German with us. It was a small, funny and personal moment that really stood out!
Everything was perfectly organized, never rushed, and yet we experienced so much – all in just one day.
We can highly recommend this private tour for families with children. The pacing was relaxed, the breaks were child-friendly, and we felt well looked after the entire time. A big thank-you to the whole team – especially Ahmed & Ismail – for giving us such a memorable day!
100% recommendation – 5 stars from us!
