This is a great place just a short walk from the ferry. You don't need a cab, just stay along the river and you will find it. ahmed is very attentive and fun to talk to. He can also arrange good, hassle free tours at a good price. The food and fires were both wonderful also. You will love Al Salam.

We had a great stay at Al Salam. It was very relaxing, the food was great, and even though it was cold we were given plenty of extra blankets. They even arrange tours for you so that you don't have to deal with the ever persistent touts. I would recommend thisplace to anyone staying in Luxor!

Bathroom facilities need to be improved definitely: at moment there's only one shower provided with tiny quantity of hot water and lights at the basins' area are quite poor. I've instead really appreciated the healthy food I was given and the atmosphere at the new year's eve party

This place was awesome. It really felt like home. The location is great - away from the hustle and bustle of the east bank. It is a bit of a walk into town(10 mins),but I recommend getting bikes - the whole of Luxor is easy to do on bikes. Ahmed is extremely generous, but I must say that as with anywhere in Egypt, ask how much everthing is - our bill was slightly higher than we expected. Overall - Al Salam camp was AMAZING and I would go back in a heartbeat.

Can't truly describe how special this place is & how much of a privilege it was to stay & enjoy Ahmed & his family's fantastic hospitality. We began our stay with a "welcome home" from Ahmed & it really did feel like home. The camp is very atmospheric, the surroundings beautiful & the food cooked by Ahmed's wife incredibly tasty & generous. We really enjoyed our time here & should be a must for anyone wanting to enjoy a real experience in Luxor. Thank you & hope to see you again soon Ahmed

Very unique and quite different from the usual accommodation and people you'd come across while in Egypt. If you're the trooper type and values good time then this is for you.
