Valley of the Kings / Temple of Hateshesput

Mohamed Refaaie was our guide for the Valley of the Kings and Temple of Hateshepsut. He demonstrated a rich and deep understanding of Egyptian and Greco/Roman History which provided us with a comprehensive overview of both the chronology and historical significance of the sites we saw. All my niche questions were answered and this enabled me to contextualise and understand the sites. I strongly recommend Mohamed, he was an excellent guide and the experience wouldn’t have been the same without him!

Remon

Remon was an excellent guide and picked us up promptly from the airport. We visited Luxor temple and Karnak, his Knowledge of Egyptian history was exceptional and enabled us to have a great experience! His quizzes were a lot of fun too. I highly recommend Remon and learned a lot about how he Old and New kingdoms of Ancient Egypt.

See everything!!!

Tour that allows you to see everything.Remember to get sent on whatsapp the day before arrival the whole program day by day.every night you will still have to ask pick up time because well in advance they do not know how to tell you.Air tickets send them to you the night before and just the file they send you to present yourself at check in.Every day a different local guide who takes you and brings you back in time (even if it is late, the ship waits).Beautiful ship all inclusive spotless and very stable (I suffer from seasickness and I was not sick).Hotel Hurghada super all inclusive.For excursions you always leave very early, remember to have your breakfast box prepared

Left us high and dry!!

One week before we were scheduled to leave for Cairo, the tour operator canceled our tour out of the blue! Now we are stuck with nonrefundable airline tickets and no tour operator! These guys are the worst. Like, who does that???? Do yourself a favor and book with anyone else-

Amazing last day on a very well organized trip

On the last day of our cruise we were back in Luxor and our very friendly and talkative tour guide Gabriel greeted us at the reception of the boat. Everything was once again arranged very timely and smoothly, I recommend Nice Tours to everyone just for the peace of mind while going about being a tourist. Gabriel took us to the last stop on our itinerary; the Denderah Temple in Qena. He was very knowledgeable and it was very nice to see the consistency of information when comparing to all the other temples on our trip. Gabriel was very impressive with his attention to detail at the temple and contextualising the ancient cultures to other historical events. Thank you for a great day and hope to see you again some day on a different tour!

Best guide

Adam was my guide for the day in Luxor. He explained the secrets of the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Aschepsut and Karnak. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him. He was very professional and pleasant! Always in the care.

Worst tour to the amazing ruins!

It was my worst tour ever. The boat, which is considered to be five-star, did not connect at all when I purchased Wi-Fi2G, and I told the boat staff that I would tell my boss, that it was under repair, that I would wait until tomorrow morning, and so on, until the end. Therefore, we heard from other guests and dealt with calls from tour companies. I got him to share the data and did something about it. The tour company initially contacted us at the last minute, but mostly ignored our inquiries during the second half of the boat cruise. The tour consisted of a total of 60 people, one guide per group! Because each of them is a guest on a different journey and has no idea, a guide, the tour was delayed and missed two tours and two Falca experiences. He made it up to me with a nighttime light and sound show, but it was in Spanish, so none of the guests could understand it, it was just cold… Also, the flight home from Aswan to Cairo was the only early flight I had, and when I got there, my guide wouldn’t pick me up. When I called the tour company, no one answered, and when I contacted them at Watts Up, they ignored me. Another guide from the same tour company contacted me, and three hours later my guide contacted Watts Up and picked me up, and found other guests on the boat in the car… They said it was a flight two hours after me. When I asked the tour company why, they said they couldn't get it because it was so crowded, but other guests told me they saw seats available! It was a terrible tour, not thinking about the guests at all. I'm stingy about my wonderful Egyptian ruins experience! I want you to quit this tour company!
