We took this tour as part of a recommendation from friends and we were certainly not disappointed -We arrived at the port of Safaga and were met by our friendly and very professional guide who took us on our full day tour to Luxor. A very comfortable van with explanations of the countryside and all the important points of interest - nothing was too much trouble and we had a beautiful lunch included at an authentic Egyptian restaurant and we visited all the amazing sights that Luxor has to offer including the Temple of Karnak and Valley of the Kings - all entry fees were included so nothing more to do than relax in our air conditioned van and experience the most wonderful day - we were returned to our cruise ship after what could only be described as a once in a lifetime experience - thankyou so much !!
