A donkey trip gives you the best views and is the most fun, slightly ridiculous way to see the valley of the kings. We made the mistake of booking through a hotel, who take massive commissions (up to 80% of fee). The donkey trip guides are VERY poor, so why not book direct and cut out the fat? Then they get a fairer deal and you get a cheaper price. Call Abdl on this number: 095/2060352, or 010 472 9416. He will meet you at your hotel and take you on a great 5-6 hour trip which should cost about £4 sterling each.

We were pestered as we were crossing the Nile by a man who wanted to offer a guided tour of all the temples and tombs, we tried to get rid of him, but one of his tricks was to pull out a book with written testimonies by all the people who he has shown around Luxor. We didn’t give the book much notice, as all the testimonies were written by people who came from places such as Paris, New York, London and Tokyo. We presumed these were just generic transcripts copied in different peoples handwriting.

He challenged us to name where we came from and he would find somebody from the book, my home town is originally Stourbridge in the west midlands, not the largest of towns, I told him that’s where I came from and to my disbelief he pulled out a written reference form somebody in my hometown.
