What a day! Went with my partner and honestly, we’re still chatting about it 2 days later. Pick-up was EARLY (not gonna lie, 3am is a struggle), but the air-con bus made up for it. Our guide, Rania, was hilarious and knew so much random stuff about the temples. Karnak blew my mind, so much to see, and the hieroglyphs are wild up close. Valley of the Kings was HOT (like, bring two water bottles hot). I felt a bit rushed at Hatshepsut, but still worth it. Boat ride on the Nile was peaceful, except for a couple of kids splashing us – made it memorable though! Lunch was okay, not amazing, but honestly who cares with scenery like that. Only downside: kinda crowded at the tombs, but I guess it’s always like that. Would totally do it again, maybe in winter next time.

Unreal experience! I came with two friends and we were all blown away. Karnak is so much bigger than I thought, and our guide, Khaled, had all these cool stories. The Nile ride after lunch was the best—super chill, and the breeze was a lifesaver. It’s a loooong day tho, so nap on the bus if u can. Also, you can’t take pics in some tombs—found out the hard way! Would 100% recommend.

Went with a group of friends and had the best day. Guide was a blast, telling jokes and cool facts. LOVED steering the boat on the Nile (I was TERRIBLE at it). Karnak was mind-blowing. Only con: sooooo many people at the Valley of Kings, but still worth the squeeze. Would def recommend.

Went with my partner and we loved every minute. Karnak was stunning, and the guide told us so many interesting facts. The heat was insane, but water was always available. Lunch was okay. The Nile ride was my fave part. Bring a hat!

Best tour we did in Egypt! Guide was hilarious and knew so much history. The temples are MASSIVE and breathtaking. Loved the Nile boat ride. Food was ok but who cares, it’s all about the sites. Would recommend to everyone.
