Luxor tour from Hurghada with Sharm Wonders… I can’t wait to come back and see more with you! We booked the private Hurghada to Luxor tour, when I saw the pick up time I was dreading it (4am)... However, the quality of the vehicle and the driver quickly started to make my fears and apprehension dissolve. Upon our arrival we met our tour guide, Mido. Mido is so knowledgeable and friendly we had an amazing time. From the onset Mido was friendly and approachable- no question was a stupid question and he had the answers at his fingertips. I wanted to buy some gifts for family and friends and Mido and the driver fitted in the time during the tour to do this. The buffet lunch on the banks of the Nile was good too- lovely baklava! I can’t recommend this tour enough- despite not experiencing the other guides I can highly recommend asking for Mido as I couldn’t fault him! Definitely pay the extra for the Tomb of the Golden Boy King (Tutankhamun)! Outstanding value compared to other agencies prices for same tour (£80 cheaper for both of us and a personal guide) I would recommend Sharm Wonders and would use them again when visiting Egypt
