Would not recommend they are deceiving and misleading! They have no customer service! They knew they were doing bad business so they acted like they upgraded us to a 4 star hotel. When in fact it was not a 4 star hotel it still was a low budget 3 star hotel.
It was such an amazing experience from start to finish thanks to our guide, Mahmoud. Mahmoud was super knowledgeable on the sites, clearly well-known and respected at the sites which helped us feel more comfortable and supported through the day, and he was overall such a pleasure. He ensured our happiness and enjoyment was priority which is always amazing. He even did his best to keep us active and entertained as we had a late night flight and wanted to explore Luxor as long as we could until our flight. I’d 110% recommend Mahmoud and Nice Tours :)
Hassan was a very entertaining guide. He told us as much as we wanted about the historical Egipt and the sites we see. We highly recommend him to anyone who requires decent English.
Our guide Raimond was very good and present throughout the tour in Luxor
Wonderful memory of the balloon flight. We were accompanied by Mohab who was very friendly. We continued the day with our guide Mohamed, his explanations were very interesting and detailed. We specified our diet for lunch and this was respected. We did not have a felucca ride but the day is already very busy (pick up 4am and return at 4.30pm). I recommend!
Amr showed our family of four the sites in Luxor over two days. We saw the amazing Temple of Karnak and he explained the important statues and architecture. He took his time and answered our many questions -- his training in tourism and Egyptology were very valuable. The Luxor Temple was also magical, and thanks to him we understood how all the different pieces fit together. Day 2 was the East Bank: Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatchepsut and the Collossi of Memnon. He explained everything clearly and gave us good preparation so we could see all the important things. We were also taken to a spice shop on Day 1, and an Alabaster manufacturing store; these were clean and authentic, without too much pressure. All in all we were lucky to have had Amr here in Luxor -- an enjoyable tour and lots that we learned and will remember for many years to come. On Day 2, before the East Bank, we took a hot air balloon ride, which was exciting and fantastic, flying right over the Colossi. We had to leave at 4:45am and were in the basket and flying by 6am, seeing the sunrise, with amazing views from the desert to the Nile. 5 stars!!!
Mina was calm, patient, and accommodating throughout the day. He was soft-spoken but overall a very good guide. He knew when to step in and when to step back, and we appreciated that balance. He also advocated for two members of our group during a very confusing ticketing experience, where they were directed to a different window for reasons we were never given and can only speculate about. Mina stepped in, adjusted quickly, and involved others to help resolve the situation. That effort was clearly not self-serving, and that alone earns him 5 stars in our book. That said, the day did not run as promised or as we expected. Unfortunately, the balloon company made a mistake early on, which created a domino effect for the rest of the itinerary. As a result, Mina was placed in a difficult position, managing a group that was already frustrated after missing the sunrise and then waiting nearly an hour for a balloon. I had anticipated this delay would impact the rest of the day—and it did—especially since we had a flight later that evening. Because of this delay, we missed the Colossi of Memnon and the felucca sailing experience on the Nile. The felucca sailing was one of the activities I had been most looking forward to, regardless of whether it included a motorboat component or not. Additionally, I had requested an opportunity to try local street food, especially since it would have been faster given the delays. While Mina seemed to acknowledge that request, we were ultimately taken to a buffet restaurant. It was presented as though we had a choice, but it felt clear the company has a standing arrangement with that location. The buffet's overall quality was not great. Unfortunately, my husband and I both ended up with traveler’s diarrhea afterward, so I would advise others to use their discretion and follow their instincts.
our tour was excellent, the ballon ride was absolutely awesome and our guide prof mahamoud hasan was wonderful and very informative, kind and helpful

I had an absolutely unforgettable Christmas vacation in Luxor, Egypt! Visiting the East and West Banks was a dream come true, and it was made truly exceptional thanks to my outstanding tour guide, Mohamed Ayman. He went above and beyond at every moment. His knowledge of Egyptian history and culture is phenomenal, and he speaks flawless English along with other languages. He was incredibly professional, kind, and respectful, and I felt completely safe and well taken care of throughout the entire experience. He even took the time to capture amazing photos of myself which I truly appreciated. If you’re ever planning a trip to Luxor, please do not hesitate. I highly recommend Mohamed. He’s truly the best!
