We picked a private this tour based on Trip Advisor reviews. Our goal was security. We took this tour: a day in Cairo focused Christian sites, the Museum of Antiquities and the Tut artifacts. Day at the pyramids, camel ride, and antiquities. Day at Abu Simbel and the statues and tombs that were moved for the Aswan dam flooding. Tours of temples at Aswan. Two days at Luxor. The first day focused on tombs at Valley of Kings & Queens and next day at Luxor temple and Karnak temple. It was comprehensive tour and totally do-able without becoming exhausted. When we wanted to rest, the "tour" paused and rested.
The guides were knowledgable. We appreciated all the explanations of mythology. There were many great experiences like hot air ballon ride, sail boat ride, sound and light shows, trips to interesting factory stores where you could see rugs, alabaster vases, papyrus art, jewelry made. We decided it was our most fun vacation ever.
The first day at the museum as I cut through a huge mass of people on the stairs and was soooo glad I was on a private tour instead of in a group tour herd. Egypt Magic works very hard to please you. We found them to be flexible and adaptable and accommodating. We were pleased and would highly recommend.
