About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- dennisy5310 contributionsBahariya Dessert organised through Marsa Alam ToursI absolutely loved today's tour to the Bahariya Desert and was extremely impressed with our driver. He picked us up, ensured we arrived at our destination safely, and was diligent and careful throughout the journey. He also took great care of my wife when she was making purchases and stood guard to ensure her safety. Additionally, he safely transported us back to our hotel, completing an eight-hour commute while making sure we felt supported. With regatds to the actual tour: our guide was very informative, explaining the history and ensuring that we were comfortable and understood everything he was articulating. He welcomed any clarifying questions we had. The lunch was spectacular! We enjoyed home cooked meals in a traditional home, and the flavours and variety of food exceeded our expectations. It was a lovely day shared with my loved ones, and I'm deeply impressed by how well Marsa Alam facilitated the tour for me on such short notice.Written 14 February 2025
- patginb0 contributionsGreat guide, beautifull views, well organized!!!We had a really great, intensive day in Giza and Cairo!:) Our Gauide Bassant turned out to be wonderful person with a huge knowledge, good attitude , beautifull energy and perfect planning. A lot of stunning photos were made by Bassant aswell!💚She knows the best spots for photoshots!:) Together with the driver we could move easily and safely to see Pyramids, National Musem and the City of Cairo. Restaurant offered us delicious food aswell! Transportation between the resort and the airport was also well organized! Everything went smoothly and with good standards! Thank you very much MarsaAlamTours!:)))Written 9 February 2025

- davidrA2319QU0 contributionsDay trip to Kom Ombo and Edfu from Marsa Alam not possible!All looked promising with a small deposit taken until the afternoon before we were due to travel. Company then contacted us to say the trip was not possible the direct routes from Marsa Alam - Edfu and El Quesir-Qift are not accessible to tourists. Instead the route is via Safaga giving a total return driving time of 18 hours without any stops! It seems that this has been the situation for a long time so the trip should not have been offered. Quick refund made but hardly makes up for the disappointment.Written 30 January 2025
- 729majac0 contributionsGreat private trip to Luxor! Absolutely worth it.We had an amazing time visiting Luxor! Mohamed, our driver, did a great job getting us everywhere safely. It is clear that it is not a good idea to drive there yourself. Mustafa, our guide, could answer on all my questions. He had a lot of information to give, which was really nice. Only downside is that the day is too short to take your time everywhere. We were away from our hotel for more than 17 hours and still the strip felt quite fast paced. I do recommend to take the optional sail trip and to visit Luxor temple, in my opinion, they are absolutely worth it! The grave of Toetanchamon was not that necessary for me. I think you can get the idea of the graves well enough with the other three graves you visit. The only thing we didn't do was visiting the albast factory. The while trip was just my partner and I, which made the whole experience a lot more personal.Written 24 January 2025

- sannamarit20240 contributionsA perfect 1 day Cairo Trip by plane from HurghadaI booked a private one-day tour from Hurghada to Cairo, which included all the main attractions such as the Pyramids, the Sphinx, the Step Pyramid of Saqqara, the Serapeum, and the new GEM Museum. My guide, Amr Moses, and my driver, Mohamed Ismael, were absolutely 5/5. Their expertise and professionalism were outstanding, and everything went perfectly. I can wholeheartedly recommend Marsa Alam Tours, as well as both Amr and Mohamed ❤️❤️❤️. We had lunch at an excellent restaurant near the Saqqara Pyramid area. Even though I was traveling alone, I felt very safe in their company. Everything ran on schedule, and I could even adjust the itinerary on the go. I particularly appreciated having a private bus with a dedicated driver and a personal guide who was always available to answer my questions.Written 11 January 2025
- mariovS9530GB0 contributionsFull day desert trio in Wadi el Gemal (meet & greet with camels)Seeing the desert of Wadi el Gemal NP was one of the reasons to go to Marsa Alam for a short holiday. We booked the full day excursion with a private guide and were lucky to get Hamada as our guide. He appeared to be a great driver and a walking Encyclopedia of the area. But he is also a very nice man and good company for the day. We started on the sea side with some snorkeling and saw the mangrove trees. Drank some tea with bedoein friends and had a nice lunch before we headed into the desert. We drove through several valleys, saw the accacia trees, giant rock formations and groups of wild camels and donkeys living in the desert . Having bedoein ancesters, Hamada told uss all about (wild)life in the desert. At the end of the afternoon we drove to a deserted ancient Roman village, marked with a temple in the rocks. There I had a remarkable experience when 2 curious camels came towards me and walked beside me for a while before running away! The day ended with a bbq under a marvellous sky full of stars that make you feel very tiny in the giant universe. After a long drive back to the 'civilisation' we returned to our hotel and said goodbye to our new friend Hamada!Written 11 January 2025
- LT-LS0 contributionsNot exactly as plannedWe had 3 days tour to White Desert, Black Desert and Wadi Hitan, and Fayum oasis. White Desert was the most important part for us, that is why we decide for tour with overnight there. And here was a problem. I understand that Marsa Alam Tours is using subcontractors, and they do not have full visibility, how it is handled there. And subcontractor in White Desert was not the best one (including lack of English skills, and couple of other issues). But the real problem was that they changed totally schedule, started later, and decided to finish 2 days trip for White Desert in one day. Not informing us, just doing that. There was ban for camping in White Desert (which I understand), but they decided to shrink everything to one day... So it was very Instagram tour – take a picture, and go to next place, as we do not have time. Fortunately for us, we asked Marsa Alam Tours for help, and Mr Ahmed escalated it. Thanks to him, we were able to go back to White Desert for sun rise, which was magnificent. However those guys, cut our time for Black Desert and other points, including optional tours. We were considering see Alexander’s Temple, but they did not ask for it, just sent us to next place – Fayum. According to the plan, we should be there for evening, we were in mid day. I do not have anything against Fayum oasis, but it was only additional part for us, it was never the plan. I’m not the target. It is nice place, but I wanted to explore Black and White Deserts. On oasis, Mr Sobhi contacted again Mr Ahmed, and they provided us guide for Wadi Hitan, Mr Ali. Generally, everything after White Desert was very good organized, and Mr Ali was very helpful, and was try to fix bad impressions that we had. And Wadi Hitan meet our expectation, so we had wonderful day. But being totally honest, I can’t recommend this trip, with that subcontractor, that they have. If the trip in that shape, as we finally had, would be two days, so from sunrise on white desert we would head directly to Wadi Hitan, and then I would be very pleased. But with this one day, I’m not (as I have to remove couple of things in Egypt from my list to see).Written 9 January 2025
- LT-LS0 contributionsPerfect placeWe were pretty happy with this tour. There was some minor issues related to timing on the first days. We had some doubts on it, but once Mr Ali, who was our guide in Kom Ombo and Asuan, joined us, everything was fixed. He is not only good guide, but as well good organizer. And he was able to push driver and other guys, so we were able to see everything. And for us, this tour was one of the most important part in this Egypt tour. And we were really very happy, how finally it was handled. Especially that we have some time on Dam, to see it from top of monument (which was not in original plan). I really recommend this tour.Written 9 January 2025
- LT-LS0 contributionsExcelent tripWe have a one day tour to Alexandria from Cairo. And our guide was Ms Malak. And this was pretty amazing experience. Tour was very well organized, and our guide has astonish knowledge on Alexandria. She was able to show as a lot of interesting places, and she was not pushing on time. We have all the time we need, and we could explore some places, even if that was not on normal schedule. Everything was very excellent, I recommend quality of service. Nothing to complain.Written 9 January 2025
- valentinabV9307BZ0 contributionsAmazing and peaceful Siwa daysSiwa tour has been truly one of the best experiences done in Egypt, and I recommend it to all that has a discovering spirit. It’s a real hidden gem, you can have peaceful moments while in Siwa, surrender by the incredible nature. The lake, the fortress, the salty lakes, the hot springs and the desert adventure with 4x4 cars. Everything was just perfect thanks to our amazing guide Khaled! I couldn’t ask for better!Written 6 January 2025
- Srushti20 contributionsWould highly recommend Marsa Alam ToursMarsa Alam Tours booked our 7 days in Egypt and 5 in Jordan tour. We did Cairo, 3-day Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor, and overnight at Bahariya Oasis. They booked our domestic flights, our flight from Cairo to Amman and hotels. It was a personalized custom tour for our family and it was flawless. From the airport pickup to drop-off, everything was well taken care of. The drivers & guides every day were friendly, informative and helpful. Wael Ewada who booked our package stayed in touch with me throughout the trip to make sure things went well. Their airport rep Wael Aziz helped us with delayed baggage and with my daughter who was coming 2 days later. Would highly recommend them.Written 3 January 2025
- 921muhamedb0 contributionsNile cruise and visit great, company tour disasterNo explanation of the tour in details before coming to Egypt Nobody answers on the phone to explain From Hurgada to Luxor transportation disaster, took 6 hours instead of 4, driver did not have document, every border he had to convince police Nile cruise with Kelos was good, we were 26 people in total, empty boat People on board tried to make the possible, they were pushy on tips but it is ok First guide to Luxor was good even if spoke a lot of time on the phone Second girl in Esna and Edfu was really good despite she had difficulties to move so we were quite slow compared to rest, but she was great Third guide in Abu Simbel was very good prepared but expressed, in 15 minutes explained everything than guide are not supposed to enter in temple Last guide in Nubien village, very bad; we payed 40 euros each, but basically was nothing to see; 15-20 euro each is reasonable touristic price for the boat trip Transportation from Aswan to Abu Simbel and back was disaster; super small car with huge person in it, travel for 6 hours with stop 1 hour in Abu Simbel, is not worth. It was already in our package so we decided to go; but really it is a nice location the temple but perhaps better you spend 2-3 hours to relax from 3 hours drive. The car was also full of plastic to cover seats very uncomfortable. Driver no speak English. Next day we had 8 hours trip from Aswan to hurgada. We asked different car, bigger; however we got the same driver! Crazy. We complained but nothing, we had to go back. Driver very unpolite, he stops when he wants for how long he wants. At the end he wants also tip, crazy! I chose this agency because had a bit of competitive price compared to other tours; maybe to save 200-300 euros per person. If I go back I will pay extra money to have a better quality service. With explanation of how long will be driving by car and then perhaps I will negotiate more on the visits to see. But again, nobody answers to phone so difficult to negotiate.Written 31 December 2024

After a few times writing back and forwards Marsa Alam Tours was flexible enough to create a customized 3 days tour instead of 2 days from Soma Bay to Luxor. We appreciated the transparency of pricing and received additional travel document requirement during Covid times. The tour guide was very knowledgable and we felt very comfortable around him. He and the driver were always on time and planned the sightseeing very well. We had a fantastic time exploring Luxor and received a lot of information. Due to Covid there were only a few other tourists at the sited. The hotels followed the Covid regulations strictly (wearing masks, hand sanitizer) and we always felt very well taken care of.

Huda was excellent in describing everything, very enthusiastic with extreme love for egyptology.
The hot air balloon was excellent, great food, good hotel. Karnak Temple is beautiful with a great view of the ancient hieroglyphics. Luxor Temple shows how temples have been reused with highlights of a roman church, orthodox church and mosque all coexisting.
The valley of the kings was truly a once in a lifetime experience, Temple of Sety 1 recommended though extra charge.

Satisfactory excursion but poor organization...
Low level French-speaking guide... Request for additional money by the agency... Misunderstandings between the guide and the agency and the client finds himself in the middle of the exchanges.
Positive point: Top hotel in Luxor

Bonjour,
Merci pour votre retour. Nous sommes heureux que l'hôtel à Louxor vous ait satisfait, mais nous regrettons sincèrement que l'organisation de l'excursion n'ait pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes.
Nous comprenons que la situation concernant la qualité du guide et les incompréhensions entre le guide, l'agence et vous ait pu être frustrante. Nous nous excusons pour cela. Nous prenons très au sérieux vos commentaires et allons travailler sur la sélection de nos guides pour nous assurer qu'ils offrent une expérience de qualité et qu'il n'y ait plus de malentendus dans l'avenir. Concernant la demande d'argent supplémentaire, ce n'est pas une pratique que nous soutenons, et nous allons enquêter sur cette situation pour clarifier les choses.
Nous vous remercions de votre patience et espérons avoir l'occasion de vous offrir une meilleure expérience lors de votre prochain voyage.
Cordialement,
Rana
