CallumUnited Kingdom The entire trip was very well-organised. We was well looked after the whole day, with cold water provided, breakfast pastry and even ice-cream. We had a very enthusiastic tour guide who was very knowledgeable. My partner gets travel sick, they allowed her to sit in the front, looked after her and the tour guide (Fathy) provided an umbrella during the tour to keep the heat off her and made accommodations to keep her comfortable. Abdul was always friendly and willing to take pictures and go above and beyond. The drivers were also very friendly and made stops along the way for restroom breaks and refreshments. There was much more included in this trip than others we saw, and the opportunity to see extra tombs and a nile cruise - definitely worth booking! All in all, a very memorable experience and well-worth booking.

TinaSlovenia We booked the Luxor Highlights Tour from Hurghada with FTS and had an excellent experience. We visited Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon, giving us a great overview of ancient Egypt in just one day. Our guide, Mona, was fantastic—very friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to answer all of our questions. The tour was well organized, and we never felt rushed. The lunch was very tasty and a nice break during the day. We decided to skip the optional boat trip and took the car transfer instead, which was comfortable and worked perfectly for us. Overall, it was a great value for money and a tour we would happily recommend to anyone visiting Egypt.

Amr Mansur, our guide for the day, was lovely throughout the day and providing loads of historical information and responding any questions we might have. I would definitely recommend this tour if you’re staying in Hurghada, and adding the Ramses V & VI and the Nile cruise were really good too. You’ll be lucky if you have Amr as your tour guide as well (we wished he was our guide for a full tour of Egypt).

OliverUnited Kingdom The air conditioning was perfect for the transport to Luxor. Mona was a brilliant guide and gave a lot of really brilliant information about the tombs and temples. Despite it being very hot on the day we went, there was enough breaks and cold drinks. Couldn’t recommend it enough.

ChloeUnited Kingdom Really enjoyable day. Transport was on time and comfortable, had a stop halfway through transfer. Tour guide was amazing ( Amr Mansur - thank you so much) was really informative and keen to answer any questions. We didn’t add the extra tombs, but visited 4 and these were amazing. Had a trip on the Nile boat before lunch. Lunch: really good selection (bread, rice, salad, chicken, fish) Overall a really amazing day, just quite long so make sure to wear comfortable shoes Thank you so much!
