We took a boat from Aswan to Luxor and had an amazing chance to have Mohammed tour us around Aswan and the cities that we stopped at until Luxor. He was very clear with his information and made the tour extremely interesting. He was very patient and answered all of our questions. Besides being an amazing tour guide, he is very kind as a person. He provided us with water and chocolates every day before our tour which made an experience much more comfortable! However, when we encountered a problem with a company, as on the day of our departure to new destination they changed our plan and we were told that we are staying in the same city one more night(even though the night before we were told we are taking a car to new a city). This change frustrated us a lot and our tour guide put all his efforts to solve this problem and tried to do his best to fulfill our needs. We ended up going to the office of the company in Luxor (we requested to meet with the company) , where we met Georgina. Our family travels a lot, and this kind of service was never seen before. She had the audacity to scream at our tour guide for bringing us to the office as she didn’t want us to speak to her. She fully disrespected him and the whole team. A manager of the company should and cannot ever raise the voice on the colleagues (especially to the person who works so closely with their client). This left us in shock as it clearly shows the values of the company. Our tour guide never deserved this as he was just trying to do his best for us to enjoy our experience. We are deeply sorry that Mohammed had to resign due such treatment and I hope the company will compensate it for him. Likewise, I hope the company will take action from this and realize that they lost a very valuable asset in their team. Out of all our tour guides he was clearly the best one and treated us as his family. We are still in very much of a shock from the manager Georgina and we hope the company will overlook her work and take according actions.If you are visiting Luxor and don't have Roshdy as your tour guide, you are missing out!

If you are visiting Luxor and don't have Roshdy as your tour guide, you are missing out! Roshdy became part of the family and cared for us every step of the way. He was a great teacher of Egyptian history and very patient with some of the slower individuals in our group. We had an amazing time taking the Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor and it will be an unforgettable experience. From America with love ❤️The only reason I am giving a higher review is because our tour guides. Roshdy was our guide through Luxor and Aswan and he gave us tons of information and was genuine.

The only reason I am giving a higher review is because our tour guides. Roshdy was our guide through Luxor and Aswan and he gave us tons of information and was genuine. He made sure that we had a good time and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable with our rooms and the food. Our tour guide for Cairo was same and he was great about taking great photos for us. This travel company we went through was not nearly as good as their guides. We requested 5 star hotels and payed quite a bit extra and they booked us in the cheapest and oldest 5 star hotels. Many of the activities that have optional choices they have you pay anywhere from 50 USD to 120 USD. They don’t give you any notice of it before. Like I said the trip was great, but the only reason I enjoyed it was because our tour guides Roshdy Khodary and Sam.We did a ten day tour and had a great experience. Roshdy was very personable and helped our family see and do the things we wanted to see and do.
