Cruise on Nile River between Luxor and Aswan

31-Aug-2019

We enjoyed a fabulous Nile Cruise. From Luxor to Aswan. Boat was lovely, staff polite and helpful. Our every need was catered for. The tour stops at Temples were interesting and informative, made the more so by our guide, who’s knowledge and passion for his work ensures the best experience for clients. The temple of Abu Simble was the highlight of our trip. I’m sure we’ll be doing a repeat tour sometime in the future

Amazing organisation from Cairo top tours

20-Oct-2019

i booked a luxurious trip through Lookategypttours. They arranged everything; i toured the pyramids of Giza and Saqqara, and the Egyptian Museum & old Cairo and took flight to Luxor where Mohammed was our guide, as i cruised on the Mayfair Nile cruise ship. Having the cruise ship as a base was a lovely, relaxing way to see the Jewels of the Nile: the Valley of the Kings, the temples of Karnak, Luxor, Edfu, Philae and Kom Ombo. And i have amazing time in abu simbel temple Overall excellent, I had dreamed of visiting Egypt for 40 years and Lookategypttours made sure I had the trip of a lifetime.

Excellent tour- would do it again in a heartbeat!

21-Aug-2019

I did the cruise between luxor and aswan with lookategypttours and it was one of the best parts of my Egypt vacation! Mahmoud was an extremely knowledgeable guide and helped us get the most from each of the sites we visited, but also gave plenty of time to explore on our own or take pictures. He took us to the temples at different times from other tour groups, and at some points we were the only ones there! Quite amazing to wander around and have the whole place to yourself. We were so grateful for his tips and guidance to get us through the trip. Would absolutely use Lookategypttours again and would recommend to anyone going to Egypt
