Road travel IS the way to see the real Egypt. Come let us show it to you.

Prices are per car/mini-bus NOT per person

Need to get to Aswan but don't fancy connecting through Cairo? Want more independence and reliability than the train? Then sit back, relax and leave the driving to us. And now, with NO CONVOYS between Luxor and Aswan from 6am to 6pm, you are truly free to make your own schedule.

We provide safe, private, air-conditioned transport between Luxor and Aswan. Hiring private transport not only puts your itinerary in your hands, it allows you to enjoy the scenic route between Luxor and Aswan. Pass through local villages and experience the frivolity of kids on their way to school, see Egyptian men and women go about their daily lives and enjoy the varied architecture and stonework of the houses built with materials indigenous to their local areas.

PLUS, marvel at the expansive beauty of the Nile which hugs the road for much of the way.

About the Trip;

Marvel over the Giza Pyramids outside of Cairo; be transported 5000 years as you stand in the vividly colored tombs and temples of Luxor’s Valley of the Kings; feel the warmth of the Nubian people; hear the songs of the Ancients in your heart as you sail down the timeless Nile River and submerge yourself in the sparkling waters of the Red Sea.

Our tours are led by licensed guides who are passionate about Egyptian history and culture and love sharing it with visitors. All tours are educational and informative but casual and fun!

The people of Egypt are its best feature. They are charming, kind, warm and full of wit and good humor. We are extremely lucky to have a local Egyptian, born and raised in Luxor, accompany us on all our tours and act as our own personal ambassador to Egypt.

And of course, nothing beats the culture. You have not lived until you have had some warm Egyptian bread with tahina, smoked an apple flavored water pipe (shisha), dressed up in a ghelabiya, attempted to belly dance or looked down on the world from atop a camel’s back (even if you’re screaming ‘Just take the picture and get me down from here!).

Egypt is an intoxicant that has captured the hearts of visitors since the beginning of time. Let us show it to you.

This is an amazing trip and we had a really fun group last year. Hope to see you there!

Best,

Authentic Egypt

We received this wonderful review from our most recent client.

"Hello KC,

Just to say thankyou for a wonderful experience. Your company delivered everything and more than promised and at very competitive rates. Karim was kind, polite and knowledgeable and no request was too much trouble for him. As well as the scheduled itinerary he accompanied us on an evening search of the markets as my partner was keen to purchase material to bring home and make her own garments. He did this in his own time and would not accept payment, he just wanted us to have had a nice holiday and leave with good memories of Egypt and its people.

He had also arranged our tours of the Valley of the Kings, Karnak and Luxor temples with a guide who was first class and an experienced Egyptologist. Bahaa, our guide for these excursions was excellent in his explanations, knowledge and manner.

We enjoyed every moment of our holiday and it was made even more enjoyable and easy by the wonderful service of your company and its efforts on our behalf.

Thankyou.

Best Wishes

Richard & Marinela."
