Am i able to personalise a tour and remove the luxor part and stay with the group?

if you choose to remove Luxor and stay in Cairo instead, the price remains the same.

can I ask a couple of questions regarding the tour please. airport transfers do we advise you what our flights are and you meet us when our flights arrive? The flight we are looking at arrives early hours of morning - Will that be a problem? Sightseeing Tours What is the mode of transport? Is it airconditioned? What is the maximum group size on these tours? What is the price of the hot air balloon option in Luxor? costs: just trying to get an idea of what the entrance fees will be for the different sites? do we pay them at the sites - how does that work?

Yes, simply share your flight details (airline, flight number, and arrival time) when booking, and our driver will meet you at cairo International Airport with a sign bearing your name. Early morning arrivals are no problem at all—we handle them regularly and can arrange a smooth transfer to your hotel for rest.

Maximum group size is 8-10 people for an intimate experience; we can go fully private if preferred. The hot air balloon ride in Luxor costs $125 USD per person (includes hotel pickup, flight over the Nile and temples at sunrise, and drop-off). It's weather-dependent and highly recommended! Entrance fees vary by site but total around $150-SD per person for a standard Luxor,cairo itinerary . We provide a detailed breakdown in your itinerary quote. You'll pay them directly at the sites (cash USD or EGP preferred; cards sometimes available). We cover all transport, guides,—fees are the only extras.

I recently completed this short Egypt tour and "perfect" is the only word to describe it. From the initial booking to the final drop-off, the organizers were professional and efficient, taking all the stress out of the logistics. The guides are incredibly knowledgeable, bringing ancient history to life with passion and wit. I want to give a special shout-out to Tony, Marwa, and Ayman (Aka Luxor Ambassador) in Luxor. They went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and ensured my experience was personal and memorable. This isn't just a tour; it’s an authentic look at the heart of Egypt. Highly recommended!Show more

This tour was amazing, it exceeded my expectations that were high to begin with. The tour guides had a wealth of knowledge and answered any question they had, we could not stump them. Our guide for the pyramids was Marwa, she was fantastic! For Luxor we had Ashraf, and you couldn’t ask for a better guide. He was super friendly and tailored the tour to us! Can’t recommend enough. Tony was the tour manager and booked all the flights and tours. He crushed it, the drivers were always on time and we never waited on them. Flights were booked and had zero issues.Show more

Tony provided flawless logistics allowing us to seamlessly go from tour to tour. Tony was so accommodating, helpful, and friendly! He helped our group scheduling tours, flights, drivers, resorts, tour guides, and answered all our questions. Outstanding service! Out first day was filled with viewing the pyramids, camel rides, entering the tomb, and then the GEM. Our 2nd day we flew to Luxor where we saw the Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple. Our 3rd day we went to Valley of the Kings and the Hatshepsut Temple. We had a traveling day when we arrived and at the end of the tours allowing us to check out the mall by the resort and the Tivoli Dome. This was our first trip outside the United States and it was amazing! No hassles and felt very safe! Would live to come back and would definitely recommend all aspects of service!Show more
