Luxor day tour - Our tour to Luxor was best organized from hotel pick up to return from the tour. Our guide, an expert Egyptologist with years of experience, was able to best advise us in choosing the tombs to visit in the Valley of the Kings and was exhaustive in visiting the other sites. Special thanks go to Rana who organized all our visits and was particularly helpful in meeting our needs. Highly recommended agency!!!!

Sun pyramids 10 cum laude! - I went to Egypt for 4 days with my family through Sun pyramids who organized a super tour (2 days in Cairo and 2 in Luxor).
The agency took care of all the transfers, put us in contact with the guides, provided us with the SIM cards for the internet/cell and also organized last minute trips. I thank Ahmed for organizing the entire trip, always available and available for any need. I also thank Athem who supported us in Luxor, super kind and cheerful.
A special thank you goes to the guides with impeccable Italian and very knowledgeable and very nice, Gianni (Abdel Ghanj) in Cairo and Walid in Luxor.
Unforgettable holiday, next time we return to Egypt we will definitely contact Sun pyramids again!

Spectacular time in Luxor by Air round trip from Cairo all in one Day! - I highly recommend this tour if you have limited time. We enjoyed a comfortable flight and private tour to Luxor where we toured Karnak; Luxor; Valley of the Kings and Valley of the Queens; and Ramses III Temple. We also stopped at Memphis. It exceeded my expectations by far! We had enough time to cover everything we needed to see and our Guide, Ghada Khalaf was so very knowledgeable, and our driver Hamdy was Excellent. We hit all of the sites in reverse order so it wasn't as crowded and we got some spectacular pictures. Ghada was easy to work with and flexible as to where we wanted to take more time or not at the stops. Thank you, Ghada and Sun Pyramids for a wonderful Tour!

An Incredible Journey - I took a two day trip from Cairo to Luxor, Abydos, and Dendera with my guide Samah and our amazing driver Abdul Rahman. Samah is very passionate about egyptology, and both were amazing to me the whole trip. Samah helped negotiate prices and always gave me time for photos and questions.
Thank you Samah for making the tour the journey of a lifetime. I give her my highest recommendation. 10/10

Cairo to Luxor - The activity was AMAZING! Our guide Zakaria was the best. He would sense when we would get tired & would offer to alter our trip to allow for resting in air conditioned local shops. The locals were very welcoming. Sights were beautiful. Definitely recommend & ask for Zakaria!

A Great Day in Luxor - Zaharia saad Ahmed was a great tour guide!! He was so knowledgeable! He let us go at our own pace and was always there to help when we needed him!! He was able to answer all of our questions and was really knowledgeable about all of the places we went to see. Hatshepsut’s temple and the tomb of Merenptah. He was a great photographer and friend. We will definitely use him again next time we are in Luxor!!!

Sun Pyramid tours will astound you! - This has been the best day trip by far. Sun Pyramid tours really knows how to treat their clients like VIP’s.
