Outstanding adventure! Adam will personalize to just what you want one or two hours, different times and/or pick up. If you have ever tried to arrange and haggle for your own cruise you will know the value of having Adam capably handle all the details… he makes it perfect and peaceful! Beautiful experience with three treats: sunny views of the Nile and hibiscus tea , then the breathtaking sunset, followed by a picturesque trip back seeing the Luxor temple and all the hotels and cornice lit up in the twilight. Adam is an exceptional guide who loves to share information about his city and culture and his trustworthy and kind. Can’t recommend enough. This will be a highlight of your vacation!
Wow, Thanks for your beautiful words I don't know what to say really, I do love to show my guests my magnificent home town, Again I can't find enough thanks to thanks you. With love Adam.
Adham was very kind, he allowed us to enjoy a great dinner on the Nile, with a spectacular view and tasting excellent tea! Thank you so much
We booked the Luxor private tour including the Felucca ride and it was our best experience in Egypt by far. The tour started in the morning with an amazingly knowledgable guide through the Valley of the Kings and Hatschepsut’s tomb, followed by a sunset Felucca ride. The Felucca ride was an absolute standout experience with Omar, Yousaf and Karam (our guide and boat captain’s) went well out of their way to make sure we had a great time. They were so lovely and we walked away with great memories and some new friends. This tour was well organised with great communication, arranged by Adham. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!
Dear guests, You are a very special people, thanks for this nice words we actually acting like this with all our dear guests how visiting Egypt, Again thank you and looking forward to seeing you again and soon in Egypt. Best Regards Adham
This tour with Al Hajeej tours was absolutely amazing. We booked in advance from Australia so we were a bit concerned, but everything turned out perfect. The first part of the tour was with Hadeer. She was excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. The second part with Adam on the River Nile at sunset on a felluca, it was absolutely incredible. He was an amazing guide and we will never forget this amazing experience. We found the romance of Egypt we were wanting on this sail boat tour. We highly recommend Al Hajeej tours. Professional and friendly.
Great experience, we were very well guided by Hadeer that provided us with great explanation all long site visit. Finished by a great boat trip with extraordinary sunset time
