A Day Tour Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel

16-Jan-2020

Meine Schwester und ich sind zwischen den Jahren für 8 Tage nach Ägypten. Unsere erste Stadt war Luxor. Im Hotel sind wir auf das Blue Heaven Travel Team gestoßen, die uns immer für eine Beratung zur Verfügung standen. Als wir an unserem vorletzen Tag von Kairo ankamen und uns beraten ließen wie wir die letzten Tage verbringen könnten, und dass wir liebend gern Abu Simbel und Assuan sehen wollten. In wenige Zeit und mit viel Mühe hat uns Kamal sehr gut beraten und uns ein sehr schöne und umfangreiche Tour angeboten, angepasst an unsere individuelle Interessen und Zeit. Noch am selben Abend sind wir von Luxor nach Assuan gefahren. Gesehen haben wir insgesamt Assuan, Abu Simbel, Philae Temple und dem Nubian Village. Von all den Tempeln und Pyramiden die wir in Luxor und Kairo/Giza gesehen haben, nichts hat Abu Simbel und das Nubian Village übertroffen! Das waren unsere absoluten Highlights. Vielen Dank für tolle Beratung, Gastfreundlichkeit, die wunderbare Reiseerfahrung! Beti F.

Lovely Nile Cruise Luxor-Aswan and Abu Simbel

7-Apr-2020

Because of previous experiences with EgBride Travel (excursions, an Omra and two cruises), we decided to approach Mohamed again to arrange another Nile Cruise. With all our wishes in mind, he booked us a beautiful luxury cruise on board the MS Opera together with a mesmerising trip to Abu Simbel. Thank you for excellent service and priceless insight to what we were looking for. We wish the entire EgBride Travel Team all the best in this difficult time, and we will definitely be contacting you for our next adventure

We arrived at EGBride at 9.am hoping to book a tour for the same day. Kamal was amazing, he arranged a private tour to the Valley of the Kings for us within an hour! Our guide Shareem was fantastic, very knowledgeable, and passionate about Egyptian history. Would definitely highly recommend this company.
