Toller Ausflug mit kompetentem und netten Reiseleiter Der Privatausflug von Makadi Bay nach Luxor war sehr schön und beeindruckend. Unser Fahrer Emil war sehr nett, hat uns pünktlich am Hotel abgeholt und uns flott und sicher gefahren. Naash war ein wirklich toller Reiseleiter, unglaublich kompetent, sehr informativ und humorvoll! Auch die Bootsfahrt und das anschließende Essen waren prima! Wir haben den Ausflug sehr genossen und können Memnon Reisen mit gutem Gewissen weiterempfehlen👍🏻Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Hurghada- Kairo/ Hurghada- Aswan-Abu Simple Bei dem Ausflug nach Kairo war alles exzellent organisiert. Die Fahrer waren super, sowie auch der Guide. Wir haben viel Wissenswertes erfahren und hatten genügend Zeit, uns die wunderschönen Exponate anzuschauen. Wir danken auch dafür, dass auf unseren Wunsch eingegangen wurde, die Pyramiden auszulassen (da waren wir schon) und dafür mehr Zeit im Museum zu verbringen. Auch unser zweiter Ausflug Hurghada-Assuan-Abu Simbel war professionell organisiert. Auch hier ein versierter Fahrer, ein Guide, der uns alle Sehenswürdigkeiten mit einem umfangreichen Fachwissen erklärte. Das Hotel war ein Traum. Mittagessen bei beiden Ausflügen super. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist super. Wir buchen gern wieder hier. Georg, Regine und ElkePosted on Tripadvisor![]()

Very nice, private, and personalized experience. We decided on the private 1-day excursion from Hurghada to Luxor on very short notice. Contact with Memnon Reisen was established quickly, very friendly, and Sandra organized everything quickly for the following day. In the morning, we set off at 4 o'clock with our very friendly and helpful driver, Ali. In Luxor, we then met with our guide Nash (Nashaat Obaid Saad) - and the tour turned into a great experience!! Nash is a very educated and open-minded person and showed us various alternatives and planned the daily schedule together with us. We followed his recommendations and visited great places beyond the huge tourist crowds. This allowed us to make optimal use of our time, and we learned a great deal from Nash about the ancient culture and the hieroglyphs. You can feel Nashaat's passion for his profession in everything he does. As an excellent host, he also enabled us to enjoy what were presumably the best falafel in Luxor. Thanks to Ali and Nashaat, we felt very safe and very valued the entire time! Our conclusion: Memnon Reisen deserves an absolutely well-deserved ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating! Thanks for the great day! Warm regards from Tanja & ThomasPosted on Tripadvisor![]()

Day trip to Cairo by plane We had booked the excursion to Cairo by plane. We were picked up from the hotel on time and were already expected at the airport in Cairo. Our guide, Ahmed Sami, joined us later. He brought Egyptian history a little closer to us with a lot of expertise. He gave us many good tips for this excursion, e.g., he booked the camels for us so that we could safely take part in this tour at the pyramids; the photos with our camels in front of the pyramids turned out great. To finish, there was a delicious buffet for lunch. We had an unforgettable day and can highly recommend Memnon Reisen and the guide Ahmed Sami.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Egypt trip - TOP address! Ahmed Sami knew how to connect with us on a personal level, impress us with his expertise, and convince us with his honesty. For that, he receives 5/5 stars from us personally! 🙏🏻 - Memnon Reisen provides us with the all-important security for the tourist traveler that everything is perfectly planned and prepared - and if there are questions, a contact person in our language responds in a flash! For that, 5/5 stars as well! 🌟Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Great day in Cairo – absolutely recommended! We were in Hurghada as a family and visited the pyramids, the Sphinx, the museum, and the Khan el-Khalili bazaar on the day trip to Cairo. Everything worked out great: The pickup was on time, the organization was smooth, and the price was fair. A big thank you goes to our guide Ahmed Samy. He accompanied us all day in a very informative way and with a lot of heart. We can recommend this excursion without reservation!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Soma bay to Cairo - 1 day trip Great experience with our excellent tour guide Aladin. He found the perfect mixture of giving lots of information to us as parents and involving our 10 and 8 year old sons. Time went by really fast and we enjoyed the pyramids, GEM and a delicious lunch. We can definitely recommend the well organised tour!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Wonderful excursion to El Gouna Everything worked out wonderfully and we were very satisfied with our excursion to Luxor. We saw an incredible amount, learned many interesting things, and took away beautiful impressions. It was a really beautiful and eventful day for us, which we will gladly remember. We would also like to particularly highlight the excellent support provided by your drivers and guides. Both Ali and Shawky as well as Sheiko and Osama were simply great. All four were not only excellent and reliable drivers and guides, but also impressed us with their warm, friendly, and attentive manner. We felt well taken care of and safe at all times during all excursions. You could really tell that everyone does their work with a lot of joy and dedication. Our personal wishes and needs were also always taken into consideration, which was especially pleasant for us. It was simply nice to be out and about with such friendly and warm-hearted people. Please pass on our heartfelt thanks to all four of them once again. We would also like to thank you for the good organization and the uncomplicated communication. Everything worked very well and we were able to enjoy our excursions to the fullest. Egypt is a beautiful country with many impressive sights and, above all, many warm-hearted people. We felt very comfortable here and are taking numerous beautiful memories home with us. If we travel to Egypt again, we will definitely contact you again. Of course, we will also be very happy to recommend you and your team to others. Once again, many heartfelt thanks to you and your entire team for the beautiful experiences and the great support. Best regards Birgit and UwePosted on Tripadvisor![]()

Very informative Dr. Mamdouh Osman was a perfect, attentive guide. He took the time to explain every detail to us with passion and patience. The explanations were in German. An experience that one should definitely have. I recommend him. Thank you very much, dear Dr. Mamdouh.

Why Book Your Egypt Excursions with Memnon Reisen?
Egypt can be explored in many ways — but the difference between a crowded group-bus excursion and a private Egypt excursion is enormous. With Memnon Reisen, you never share your vehicle with strangers on a packed bus moving from site to site. You get a private air-conditioned vehicle, a fully flexible pace, and an English-speaking Egyptologist guide dedicated exclusively to you and your group.
Private Excursion vs. Group Excursion — The Difference
On typical group excursions, the organiser decides the pace, the route and how long you stay at each stop — often including compulsory stops at perfume or papyrus shops, the well-known "shopping stops". With a private Memnon Reisen excursion, none of that applies:
- No group bus, no travelling with strangers
- No compulsory shopping stops at partner stores
- Flexible pick-up directly from your Red Sea hotel
- Private, licensed Egyptologist guide — in English, German, French or Spanish
- Adjustable pace: more time at the sites that matter to you
Our Offer at a Glance
Our Egypt excursions cover the country's must-see destinations: day trips to Cairo to the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx and the Grand Egyptian Museum; private tours to Luxor for the Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple; multi-day trips to Aswan with Abu Simbel and the High Dam; and excursions departing directly from the Red Sea coast — snorkeling trips, desert safaris and city tours from Hurghada, El Gouna, Makadi Bay, Safaga and Marsa Alam. For those with more time, several destinations can be combined into a multi-day private round trip or a classic Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan.
Whether it's a single-day excursion or a two-week round trip, all our private Egypt excursions are organised to your requirements, with transparent pricing and no hidden costs, plus WhatsApp support even after you've booked.
