Tourist transportation - from and to Luxor Airport

Mr Ali will collect you from Luxor Airport in your own private air-conditioned car and take you to your hotel or destination. He will have a sign for your party and be waiting for you outside the airport arrivals building.

The cost for this is only LE100 Egyptian Pounds total for the car for both journeys, not per person .

Mr Ali would like to make it easy for you to start your holiday in Luxor without any hassle.
Mr Ali will have a sign of your name when he collects you. Please note that a single journey would be LE 50 Egyptain Pounds

We have just returned from a weeks honey moon in Luxor and we must thank Ali & his team for making a good holiday a fantastic one .

For the whole week Ali gave us V.I.P treatment and a service second to none and was only a phone call away for anything that we needed.
We booked all of our trips with Ali including museum, valley of the kings , hot air balloon and virtually every temple worth seeing and we did it all in style. When all of the other tourists were squashing onto a coach and sharing a guide between 40 people, we were picked up in a air conditioned people carrier or car, just the 2 of us and a guide all to ourselves (which was fantastic for my wife as she had so many questions to ask).
The service did not stop after the days trip as Ali would come pick us up ,(if we needed) take us to a restaurant of our choice and then ask us to text him when we needed collecting .

All of this service would of been more than enough but Ali even had a surprise for us on our last day, were he took us for a sunset cruise on his boat down the Nile and we enjoyed a great meal on board and he had even had a cake made for us with our name on. Yet again we had the whole boat to ourselves and it seemed all the other boats on the Nile were crowded. Ali kept saying "they are sardines you are king and queen" funny but that is how we felt.

We have been fortunate enough to have traveled to a lot of places around the world and yet this is only the second time i have felt i needed to share my good fortune in finding such a person as Ali.
Many thanks,

Dear Vanessa,
I just wanted to pass a message on to Ali that I have posted the review below on trip advisor. Please pass on our gratitude for all his efforts when were in Luxor.

Review:
If anyone is looking for a tour guide in Luxor, I can highly recommend Luxor Tours (http://www.luxortoursegypt.co.uk/ourtours. htm), run by Ali Abdou. Ali went out of his way to make our trip great, and it made a big difference having someone trustworthy to arrange things for us.
Ali states that '"honesty is the best policy", and this was certainly apparent in his conduct. Importantly, the tour guides he arranged to take us to the historic sites were excellent: very knowledgeable and friendly.

Hi Vanessa,

Just a quick note to say thank you ever so much for arranging our Cairo by Plane trip last week. Everything ran smoothly and Ali made sure he rang the owner of our apartments to double confirm all was fine and our pick-up time - he was there personally both in the early morning and late evening.

Cairo was fab - busy as usual..... was great to show my fiancé all the highlights and we enjoyed the knowledgeable guide also. We had a great week in Egypt and hope to return soon.

Kind regards, GC

We had a great time, Egypt is an amazing place.
The tours were good, it was nice just having ourselves and the guide. Mr Ali was very helpful any help, advice where to go he went out of his way to help.
Must admit it was like being with your favourite uncle, him doing anything and everything to make your stay enjoyable and for you to come back again (he surpassed himself).

Ali -
Thought we would drop you a line to say thanks for the trips you arranged for us whilst we were on holiday in Luxor.
The Valley of the Kings and the afternoon in your Faluka sailing up to Banana Island and watching the sun set over the Nile, absolutely brilliant.
You are a pleasure to deal with. The afternoon on your boat was the best thing we did whilst in Luxor and I would recommend it to anyone.(Say hello to little Hamdy from GG)
We are hoping to get back to Luxor soon and if we do we will definitely be giving you a call. Once again thank you for helping to make our stay in Luxor so enjoyable.

To whom it may concern,

We just returned from a week’s holiday in Luxor. This was one of the best holidays we have had in a long time. All the activities/ tours were organised/booked by Mr.Ali.
He met us on the evening we arrived in Luxor and took us to a local café for a drink and made us welcome. All the tours were well organised and were with experienced and knowledgeable guides who spoke good English. We were particularly impressed by the fact that Ali organised the same guide for us for all the local tours and this made us feel very relaxed. The tours were never hurried and we were able to take our own time in seeing the places.

The boat trip on river Nile was very memorable. It was very relaxing and the food was very good. We took a day trip to Cairo and this was organised at short notice- We were met by the guide in his car and he took to us the Pyramids, Cairo museum etc and brought us back to the airport in good time.
At the last minute our balloon ride was cancelled, but Ali was able to book a quad bike trip late on Sunday night. In addition to these the cost of these were the cheapest we could find in Luxor. All in all this was a memorable trip and Ali made us feel relaxed by his personal touch and friendly manner.

We have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone interested in taking a trip to Luxor.

We are a family of six and recently spent a fabulous week in Luxor.
Ali Abdue helped us organise several tours including a trip to the Valley of the Kings (with our own very knowledgeable tour guide), a flight on a hot air balloon and a felucca trip to Banana Island.
Ali looked after us with all these trips, giving us a good price, and was very reliable and helpful. He also offered to organise trips to Cairo, Abu Simbel etc. I am glad we met him and would recommend him to anyone visiting Luxor.
