        Luxor Tour
        significance of the temple. From there we took a boat ride across the Nile and proceeded to the Valley of the Kings. Again Hassan advised us which tombs were the most spectacular so that we most from our visit. We visited a wonderful stone mason's factory next and it was spectacular. Beautiful hand crafted pieces of all shapes and sizes. We were then invited to Hassan s family home and met his family. They were so hospitable and welcoming. We ate with them and the food was first class. It was a privilege to meet local Egyptian people and get an insight into their lives. Often when on holiday you are whisked from sight to sight by tour companies and you never get to meet local people or learn anything about their culture. Eldeak Tours have definitely struck upon a unique way of combining both the traditional historical tour with something that teaches you about contemporary Egypt and benefits local people, not the big tour operators. From there we went on a boat trip up the Nile before being taken home by Yusef. All in all this was a wonderful and enriching experience. If you are considering a tour while in Egypt then I would thoroughly recommend Eldeak Tours.

        Really enjoyed the trip! 100% recommended - everything worked out so well
        We absolutely enjoyed our daytrip to Luxor. Everything went so well, the private shuttle picked us up at our jotel in Hurghada and drove us comfortable to Luxor where we met out tourguide Hussein Eldeak. Hussein did an amazing job, showed us all of the importent sights, teached us so well about egypts history and even took us to his home where we got an amazingly tasty egypt food plattern. I can highly recommend the tour with eldeak tour and would book a trip anytime again. Thankyou again for the amazing daytrip! Sandra

        True hospitality - Curated tour
        True hospitality - Curated tour Ahmed organized for my family a wonderful 3 days tour to see all the wonders of Luxor … and more! We loved our very professional tour guide Farag who gave us lots of explanation and interesting facts and made our days very enjoyable. We loved the lunch time spent with the Eldeak family getting to know the mother, wife, brothers and kids. A very unique touch that enabled us to discover daily egyptians life and their wonderful hospitality ! Highly recommend !

        A wonderful day trip!
        This tour was a chance to experience Egyptian culture past and present. We are pleased to say that we had a wonderful time with our very knowledgeable tour guide, Hussien. Hussien’s family were easily contactable prior to the tour and he was able to communicate effectively with us throughout the trip. Thoughtfully, he was able to rearrange our trip a little as we were initially delayed getting to Luxor from the coast. We started off visiting the Valley of the Kings and this site did not disappoint. With 3 tombs included in the ticket price we were pointed to three wonderfully well preserved catacombs. The place itself was otherworldly and just a surreal experience to be a part of such history. Next up, we visited a local stone mason in the workers village, a nice local addition and if we’d had more luggage space, it would have been lovely to have bought some of the wears. The staff were not pushy at all and hugely hospitable. Then we visited my favourite sight, Luxor Temple - again, Hussien was able to present us with a vivid and expressive tour of this site. Then, and what I think is most special about this tour, we visited Hussien’s family home in order to partake in lunch.The meal consisted of local fresh produce; filling and exceptionally tasty. Finally, we were taken to the Nile to experience a motorboat tour of the river at sunset. This was such a calming and quiet experience to just take in how important this river is to the livelihood of those living in Luxor. Our kind driver then returned us safely to our El Gouna accommodation around 9pm. Highly recommended tour if you are looking to take in some of the incredible history that Luxor has to offer while also sampling some local culture.

        Aswan To Luxor Guided Tour
        Aldeak Tours was brilliant, reliable and very much recommend this company. We were lucky to have Ahmed Valentino guide us! He was passionate and very knowledgeable regarding Egyptian History and made the experience brilliant. After travelling around Eygpt and have used different guide companies - I cannot recommend this company highly enough nor Ahmed Valentino! I wish we had used them for the entire trip!! I look forward to seeing Ahmed again on our future trips to Eygpt. Yousaf our driver was safe, reliable and always on time. Start to end was great.

        A day to remember 💛
        We spent a wonderful day exploring Luxor on an exclusive and private tour with Ahmed. An experience we will surely remember. Visiting the Luxor temple, valley of kings and a private boat tour on the Nile, the tour could only get more special with an authentic and kind lunch at Ahmed’s house and family. Ahmed himself is a very professional, highly experienced, honest and trustworthy guide. The perfect balance of informative sightseeing, funny stories and getting impressions of the real Egyptian life. We really enjoyed our day and are happy to recommend Ahmed’s tour together with his polite and kind driver Ali. If you‘re looking for something real and a tour besides the typical tourism groups, you got a perfect match with Ahmed and his team.

        The most knowledgeable and passionate tour guides you will ever come across!
        From Aswan to Luxor, Eldeak Tours and their dedicated team showed us an Egypt we could have only dreamt of. A big shout-out to Ahmed Valentino for his incredible passion and unmatched knowledge about the sites. Every detail, every story, was relayed with such enthusiasm that we felt the history come alive around us. Yousef, our driver, ensured our journey was smooth and always on time. But it was Ahmed Valentino's attentive listening and unwavering honesty that truly made our trip memorable. Ahmed Eldeak, who seamlessly organised the whole tour for us, finished with a personal touch, which was felt when he generously invited us into his home and treated us to a delectable Egyptian meal – a testament to the genuine hospitality of the country, especially when we learned and were shown how the ingredients were home reared and grown. If you're considering a tour of this beautiful region, look no further. Eldeak Tours delivers more than they promise, and I can confidently say, you're in the best hands. We can't recommend them enough. Book with them, and I promise you won't go wrong.

        Amazing nile cruise with Eldeak tours
        Absolutely amazing! TRUSTWORTHY and reliable. Very accommodating, Ahmed, our guide, was as excited as we were to be seeing the Valley of the Kings. Best part of the trip was the hospitality we were shown and had an amazing meal with our guides (Ahmed) family. We will definitely come again and do the Cairo journey to aswan. Thank you Ahmed and thank you to your family.

        Unforgettable daytrip with Ahmed!
        We are so happy, having booked this unforgettable trip with Eldeak Tours. Starting with a breakfast in the desert, we visited Luxor Temple and the Valley of the Kings. What an amazing history, which Ahmed explained enthusiastically to us and our children. You can feel that he is a real Egyptian with every peace of his heart. We had a lot of questions and Ahmed had an answer for every single one. After the historical part, we had the chance to have lunch with his family at his house. This was absolutely incredible, we ave enjoyed it so much. Thanks to his wife for cookinga fantastic meal for us and of course, to the rest of the family for giving us a very warm welcome. Trip was completed by riding on a camel and shipping on the river Nile. It is no cliché, saying, we came as guests and left as friends... 🫶🫶🫶

      Daif was our guide who picked us up from our boat and when arrived at takeoff site he procured hot beverages for my wife & I which warmed us up. Daif treated us very well & then handed us over to the Captain Ahmed who was a professional and made us laugh. Thank you both for making our Hot Balloon over the valley of the kings memorable & fantastic. What a view & incredible adventure.

      Taking the balloon ride was definitely one of the highlights of our 5 day stay in Luxor. We took the sunrise tour but getting up very early was totally worth it. The views over the nile and its western bank were breathtaking. The pilot seemed to be very professional as well as the equipment of the balloon and we felt safe throughout the trip. I recommend doing the tour rather at the end of your stay so you can have a wrap-up of all the things you visited, since from up there you can even see Karnak Temple on the east bank. From an organizational point of view Ahmed did, as always, a perfect Job: Book the ride (secretly together with my dad, meant to be a surprise), picked us up at the hotel, and we returned by the time he told us we would be back.
      Such a great experience!

      Very professional with an emphasis on safety. We got there about 45 minutes before dawn and they were just getting the balloons up. The take off is amazing and the flight was outstanding. All of the major sights were pointed out with some emphasis on the significance of each. The pilot was able to land the ballon on a dime. Never felt endangered. The only downside was the little kids trying to sell you trinkets. One kid had the crying angel down. He needed an academy award.

      The balloon ride over the Nile and the Valley of the Kings at sunrise is a unique experience and a must! After the flight we were confronted with an unpleasant demand for money of 20 dollars per person. Also be careful with the cameraman who promises pictures, 15 dollars per person was charged and never sent by email. Ripped off twice!
