Un immense merci pour cette expérience inoubliable ! Dès notre prise en charge à l’hôtel, Youssef, notre chauffeur, a été parfait : conduite fluide, rassurante et très agréable. Nos premières heures de découverte en fin d’après-midi, entre le temple de Louxor, l’allée des sphinx, la balade en felouque et le dîner traditionnel, ont été sublimes. Un grand merci également à Ismail, qui a su nous faire découvrir en peu de temps les incontournables de Louxor, avec beaucoup de gentillesse, d’efficacité et une vraie envie de partager en français. Le lendemain, Sabry a pris le relais avec passion et p

Professor Ahmed Elsisi was the most entertaining and knowledgeable guide! We had an amazing day with him seeing the sites of Luxor, he was an amazing host. I would definately recommend this trip with him, we learnt so much history and little bits that we would never have got with anyone else, an amazing and memorable day, thank you 😊

This is the way to experience these amazing treasures of Egypt! Although an early start, we were driven by Mohamed in comfort to Luxor in a car that was our personal vehicle for the day. When there we collected our tour guide for the day, and were very lucky to have Prof. Ahmed Elsisi to show us around. What Ahmed does not know about these sights and the history of Ancient Egypt, I cannot imagine is worth knowing. We learned lots from him, and had plenty of free time on our own to explore the sites we visited. If you want to visit these sites, and learn more about them, this is by far the best

Fantastic! We highly recommend this tour. We were picked up by MrAbanob, our chauffeur for trips to and from Desert Rose Hotel in Hurghada (he also chauffeured us around Luxor) and everything was on time and very comfortable. On arrival in Luxor, we were introduced to Professor Ahmed Elsisi, our Egyptologist tour guide who was fantastic, and accompanied us throughout our excursions in Luxor. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable about the various sites, he was incredibly helpful with the restaurants and locals, especially in helping to translate to accommodate my nut allergy. He also acted a

We had a lovely two day tour to Luxor with Legacy Tours from Hurghada. Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings are stunning and well worth the trip alone. Our guide ‘The Professor’ Ahmed Elsisi was hugely informative and entertaining, finding space away from the crowds and sun, whilst conveying the history with humour. The whole tour was smoothly run and our driver Mohammed was excellent. Lunches and dinner were at Egyptian restaurants (the meze and kofta were both refreshing and tasty, perfect in the heat), and I really enjoyed the Nile cruise on the felucca boat cooling down after a day at

We had a great time with our tour guide Professor Ahmed Elsisi & Mohammed the driver. The historical & Nile cruise sides of our 2 day trip was exceptional. As well as sharing his in depth knowledge of all things Egyptology the Prof was huge fun, keeping us entertained with stories & anecdotes. The only reason I have down graded to 4 stars was the balloon trip, where Legacy Tours were seriously let down by their choice in flight partners. Unfortunately out of approximately 40 flights that went up, we were the only balloon not to leave the ground, which I could totally understand if it was down
