“Our Guide Mohammed Gobran is superb in his proffesion and so knowledgeable and without this the opportunity to get the most from the tours would not be as great. in addition he is a really nice fella to be with so just excellent all round. The only negative point we would raise is that until the day our Cruise began we did not know which ship we would be on and we now know there is a wide range in the quality of the ships so our tip is to beware of this . Many thanks Mohammed, Nige & Katie”

“If you’re heading to Luxor, stop looking for a guide and go straight for Damiana! 😁 From the moment we met her, we knew we were in for a treat. Damiana isn’t just a guide; she’s a walking encyclopedia with a heart of gold. Her knowledge of Luxor’s ancient wonders – like the stunning Hatshepsut Temple, the awe-inspiring Valley of the Kings, and that other massive temple (we honestly didn’t even need to look up its name because she made it unforgettable!) – is nothing short of amazing. What really set Damiana apart, though, was how she made history come alive. Instead of just rattling off facts, she wove the…”
