Destaques de dia inteiro em Luxor, tour privado com almoço

I am currently in Egypt and happy to share that I can highly recommend Far and Beyond Travel without any hesitation. Although they are based in Luxor, they operate across all of Egypt and deliver an exceptional level of service. From the start, the team did a fantastic job organising all our tours and transfers exactly to our preferred schedule. Everything ran smoothly, and we felt completely at ease throughout our trip. Our journey began in Luxor, where we were guided by an outstanding Egyptologist, Alaadin.. His knowledge and passion for Egypt’s history were truly inspiring. It was incredible to learn that he is the grandson of the young boy who discovered Tutankhamun’s tomb accidentally by dropping a bucket of water—such a unique and personal connection to history. Alaadin was kind, patient, and incredibly engaging. His storytelling brought ancient Egypt to life, and hearing about his childhood growing up next to a tomb made the experience even more special. He used to play inside and the family kept chickens in it. We wish him all the best of luck on upcoming archeology digs! All the drivers who took care of us were also excellent—professional, friendly, and always made us feel safe and well looked after. As it’s impossible to see everything Egypt has to offer in one trip, we are already planning to return—and we will definitely be booking with Far and Beyond Travel again when Nefertari’s tomb reopens. They have been absolutely amazing from start to finish. A special thank you to Alaadin, Yassin and Mariska for their impeccable service!

We set out at 8am (in retrospect I would recommend starting earlier as it got hot and crowded) and our guide Allehdin was great at guiding us to the the sites, through the administrative part of buying tickets and buggy rides and then explaining the interior of the tombs and temples. He didn’t come in with us, which we thought was unusual as there was a lot that needed explanation inside the places but was great before and after. It’s a long day, I would skip the alabaster workshop and stick to tombs and temples as they try to charge the craziest of prices for things you can buy online cheaper, you don’t learn much either. Whereas the rest of the day was incredible, the conservation on the sites it great, toilets kept clean and with the exception of pushy tourists in overcrowded corridors and endless wannabe instagrammers taking photos everywhere you get to see and learn so much about the pharaohs, gods and history. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

We had the most incredible full-day Luxor highlights tour with Aladdin and our driver Mahmoud. From the moment we started, they made us feel less like tourists and more like family—so warm, kind, and genuinely caring. Aladdin’s knowledge was absolutely outstanding. Every site came to life through his storytelling, and you could really feel his passion for the history and culture. It honestly felt like one of the most informative and engaging tours we’ve ever had. Mahmoud was also amazing—such a safe, smooth driver and always attentive, making sure we were comfortable throughout the day. Together, they made this experience unforgettable. If you’re visiting Luxor, you’d be so lucky to have them—highly, highly recommend!

A great tour - informative and well organised. Thank you for help and information. Bring sun screen!

We had a full day tour. The guide, Aladeen, and the driver were always eager to give us a great experience. We got a lot of information and at the same time all our questions we had were answered. It was never intrusive, but you always got a good and detailed introduction at every stop and then had time to yourself. Perfect experience!

We had an absolutely incredible experience exploring the wonders of Luxor with our tour guide “Reem”. She made our entire journey even more special. She explained the stories behind the temples and tombs in an engaging and clear way. Every wall carving, hieroglyph, burial chamber had meaning and Reem main sure we truly understood and appreciated what we saw. She was also patient, friendly and attentive to our pace and interests. If you are planning to visit Luxor, I highly recommend Reem.

The guide spoke in Japanese about the explanations, but other conversations in Japanese were not smooth. There have been many times when we have been on tour where we have not been able to get the simple requests. The guide said, "Why don't we just look at the Luxor Temple from the outside instead of going in?" "And he said, "Seti I's tomb is so high, you don't have to go,"" and it didn't make any sense. He said he wanted to pay himself to come in within the required time, but he kept stopping and was uncomfortable. Despite the lack of time, they took me to a souvenir shop. The Alabasta store is completely robbed. They try to get me to buy something around $200. Worst of all, the guide and the souvenir shop are gurus, and when we are reluctant to buy, the guide asks, "Why not? It's so cheap! ⚪︎⚪︎$?" I've been negotiating prices with souvenir shops. They also took us to a different place at noon than the restaurant it says on the tour. There is no coordination between the guide and the company at all. We were supposed to have lunch on the roof, but they let us go to the normal ground floor and we negotiated and we were able to eat on the roof. Why are we so skeptical on tour that we need to check.... I was very tired of trying to take them to a destination that wasn’t on tour and saying no. The guides are basically just simple explanations and do not enter the temple, so there is almost no real-life guidance. Looking at the surroundings, it seems that there are also tours that will take you around the temple, so I recommend that.

The day was great! Lots of walking as expected. Our guide was very informative, made it much more interesting than if we just went and saw the places by ourselves. Lunch was great, it was very fun to talk about different cultures and foods! As always, be careful with prices on everything.

Efficiently laid back the main historic district of Luxor. With the explanation of the Japanese guide I asked, I was able to have a deep understanding of Egypt's history and ruins, and I had a wonderful day. I highly recommend it.

日本語ガイドとても良かった。 ガイド内容もフレキシブルに変更してくれ、対応が良かった。 Great Japanese guide. Was able to change the content of that tour in advance and was very flexible.
