About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Charlemayne0 contributionsEngaging and entertainingKarim was an excellent guide for the Karnak and Luxor temples on the east Bank. I was engaged the entire time with his presentation. I highly recommend going with Egypt crown toursWritten April 6, 2024
- IndigoDXB0 contributionsWouldn’t recommend with this company..This is a trip with just a boy boat captain and no guide no commentary and you are left to make the best of it yourself. The River Nile is charming in any case so you probably will enjoy it but we just expected a little more of a “tour”. Dealing with Kareem the company owner has probably been the worst part of our experience as he is very temperamental and does not accept any constructive feedback. He even canceled our trip for the next day last minute when I shared some feedback with him. He could have simply shared what the trip is about and what to expect but he was too busy to do so hence our disappointment. For that I would hesitate to recommend using crown tours for other travelers as you would not want your plans falling apart because the company owner was in a bad mood!Written April 4, 2024
- Babynotts0 contributionsStunning Nile sunsetWe had a lovely evening watching the Nile sunset from a comfortable, clean felucca. The two crew members were made sure the trip was a memorable one. The food was discussed beforehand and was delicious. If I had one concern, it was having to climb down a muddy bank to the boat, and then back up again in the dark. Definitely wouldn’t be suitable for elderly or disabled people.Written February 17, 2024
- 199fabianf0 contributionsAmazing private felluca sunset tourAmazing private sunset fellucca tour ! We got picked up in our hotel by a very nice car, the driver and the guide where very nice and welcoming! After a short drive, starts the fellucca tour ! Hamza and Mussa were awesome! We went to banana island and they really took the time to show us the area by sunset/night. I would definitely recommend them!Written January 6, 2024
- jiahual20190 contributionsAmazing sunset tripIt was a fabulous trip, Musa and team has provided a welcoming and relaxing sunset trip on Nile river. Lovely breeze, nice weather - we have fully enjoyed the peaceful time on the river. Highly recommendWritten December 28, 2023
- georgepriestley0 contributionsGreat couple days in Luxor with KarimWe originally booked the river Felucca cruise with Karim and enjoyed it so much that we decided to book more! We booked the sunrise balloon trip and a half day West Bank tour (Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Queens, Colossi of Memnon, Temple of Hatshepsut) through him as well. Karim is a very informative and entertaining guide and we recommend everyone to go with him! All the best, George, Matt, James & TommiWritten November 28, 2023
- X3904TTgarethj0 contributionsPerfect experience, great value but sadly no windCaptain Mossa was very welcoming and friendly . Sunset over the Nile is a truly mesmerising experience.i cannot recommend this highly enough . The boat, Humpty Dumpty, was perfect. The only reason for the 4/5 was we had no wind so he couldn’t sail . Weather is not something that can be held against the wonderful Mossa but would have made it perfect !Written November 23, 2023

- salehhala1980 contributionsNice cruiseThis cruise was easy to book and had very friendly service. The ride came with pick up service from my hotel and drip off. The pick up was on time and the driver was friendly. The owner met us at the dock and was very accommodating. Our boat drivers were Ali and mousa, both were very friendly and great. We recfonend this tour.Written September 18, 2023
- Dreamer4242640 contributionsBest Luxor Tour GuideKarin is awesome! We booked multiple trips - transportation to/from the airport, tours of the east and west banks and more. Very informative, made it super easy for us and since it was a private tour, we changed the day to suit our needs. He’s the best. Book!!Written September 13, 2023
- Suyane V0 contributionsWe could not have better captains!Today my boyfriend and I went to a Felucca Trip on the Nile and it could not be better. Kareem picked us on time and brought us to the Felucca where we met the best captains we could ever had, Ali and Musra. What a nice boys! So young, but so client focused. From tbe beginning to the end they made sure we were enjoying it, served us tea and water. We laughed together and talked about life. They made us to feel at home! It was one of the best tours we had so far in Egypt. I would recommend them to all of you who are looking for a sunset felucca experience in Luxor. You will meet and be guided by honest, kind and very hard working people. I hope you enjoy it as we did. Thank you Ali! You and you colleague made my day! Thank you Kareem for organizing thia for us.Written August 26, 2023
- Y2587PRalainf0 contributionsA VIP Adventure with Abdul of Egypt Crown Tours - Hassle Free and Very Knowledgeable Guide/LocalMy cousin and I had the pleasure of crossing paths with Abdul, the proprietor of Egypt Crown Tours, thanks to a recommendation from Shashti, a jewelry merchant situated near Sofitel Hotel. We openly expressed our concerns to Shashti, sharing our fervent desire for a guide who could ensure a trouble-free and scam-resistant experience, especially considering the unfortunate encounter we, like many others, had faced around the Cairo Pyramids. Our encounter with Abdul turned out to be a truly gratifying one. He demonstrated unwavering transparency when it came to pricing, his wealth of experience, and the commitment of time required. In the beginning, we decided to dip our toes by booking a single excursion. Opting for the Luxor tour, which encompassed both the east and west banks, proved to be a fantastic choice. From the very first day, we were taken aback by the sheer breadth of knowledge he eagerly shared. Adding to the exceptional experience, he arranged for a modern sedan, complemented by a skilled chauffeur named Hussein, for our transportation needs. Abdul skillfully directed us to the significant sites on the west bank, considering our time constraints, and exhibited remarkable attention to detail on the east bank. Following the tours, we took the initiative to inquire whether he had connections for activities such as the hot air balloon ride, a visit to Banana Island, and tours in Aswan. With unwavering confidence, we entrusted Abdul with coordinating all these activities for us. The investment we made in his services proved to be genuinely worthwhile. A single unfulfilled desire remained – a Cairo tour in his offerings. If such an opportunity were to arise, he would undoubtedly become our comprehensive solution for exploring the array of cities we intend to introduce to our family. Abdul ensured that our experience was elevated to VIP status. From in-car refreshments to exclusive privileges during the hot air balloon journey – wherein we enjoyed our own private compartment, accommodating a minimum of four people, in contrast to the usual arrangement – he ensured our experience was unparalleled. This VIP approach extended to our Aswan expedition and boat excursion, which included an exclusive meal experience in the Nubian village. Additionally, Abdul boasts an extensive network in Luxor. He is acquainted with various individuals, including other guides, members of the police and military, workers, and vendors. It's quite commendable that he possesses the ability to maintain a calm atmosphere amidst the vendors and tactfully minimize interactions with other locals attempting to make sales. Our journey encompassed an impressive array of destinations, including Ramses IV, Tutankhamun, Ramses IX, Ramses III, the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, and Medinet Habu (or Habu Temple). Further experiences included a hot air balloon voyage over Karnak and Luxor, a leisurely sailboat escapade to Banana Island, and an invigorating swim in the Nile River. In Aswan, we explored notable sites such as The High Dam, Philae Temple (Isis Temple), the Unfinished Obelisk, and even caught a glimpse of the Nubian Village in Aswan. Abdul's expertise particularly shines in the regions of Luxor and Aswan, where he specializes.Written August 24, 2023
- rodrigocO2042VR0 contributionsAmazing sunset and swimmingWe had the best time sailing through the Nile and being able to go for a swim. Ali on board was super helpful and friendly and needless to say we saw one of the most beautiful sunsets sailing back. Highly recommended!Written June 25, 2023
- Passenger450970511930 contributionsGreat experienceKarim provided an amazing tour. We read the warnings on other posts about bad cars and un-requested shopping stops. He has a great, clean, well air conditioned car and is extremely knowledgeable about the history and people. He also has a great sense of humour. I would certainly do other trips with him. He is flexible and can go to whichever of the temples you pick and make recommendations. Thank-you KarimWritten May 20, 2023
