Nice trip
We booked our tour to Luxor with Zakharious Tours. communication was via WhatsApp. We were picked up on time from our Hotel Beach Albatros Palace with a new car. The trip took three and a half hours with a break. In Luxor, we visited the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Karnak, the Colossi of Memnon and the Temple of Hatshepsut. The food in Al Marsam Restaurant was tasty, many thanks to Ehab for his insider tips. I would highly recommend Zakharious Tours to any traveler.
