An excellent tour overall. The sites were all great, the highlights were all the temples! The guide and reps were excellent. The transport was good but I didn't enjoy the long bus rides. The Wifi was not great in the Luxor hotel. Great value for money and I would definitely recommend/travel again.

The felucca was good but too long. The Aswan hotel was beautiful but the New Years Eve Event was horrible- way too expensive and definitely not worth it. The highlights for me were the Cairo camel ride and the Valley of the Kings. It was an excellent tour overall.

The hot air balloon was the higlight of the tour and Tarek our pilot was super experienced. The food on the felucca was amazing. There was no hassle at the airport, the meet and greet was good and we had easy passage through the airport. All questions were answered at the welcome meeting and it was very easy to follow and understand. There was a perfect amount of time at …

Excellent tour in general. The accommodation and transport was good. But I didn't enjoy the train ride. The sites were great and my highlights were the camel ride/pyramid. Great value for money.

The booking process was good and the website was easy to find info/book other tours. Almost everything on the tour was excellent. A negative was the food in the Aswan hotel wad dry/tasteless. Also the bus was uncomfortable. I didn't enjoy the bus ride from Aswan to Luxor. But it was a fantastic holiday overall, and I can't say one highlight– maybe Waleed!! Would definitely recommend and travel again– we …

The tour was excellent overall. Waleed is the best! Negatives were the food at the Aswan hotel was not good. I also didn't enjoy the bus ride. The faluka cruise was outstanding and was a highlight, as well as the Nubian dinner. Overall, a very good introduction to Egypt.

I liked the website, very colourful. The guides and reps and airport pickup were all excellent. The sights we visited were all great too, my highlights were on the Nile and pyramids. Feed your group don't let them starve or you may have a fainter. Tour guild amazing.

Booking process was very good and the website easy to use. Everything on the tour was excellent. I loved all of it– hot air balloon, museum & camel ride, pyramids, temples. Our tour guide– Mohamed made the experience fabulous. He is very knowledgeable and friendly and helped us understand what we were exploring. Would definitely recommend and travel again.

The booking process was good, but the itinerary sent to us had no dates, just day #s which is a little confusing. Notes would be nice to get before the tour. Everything on the tour itself was excellent. The only negative was not your fault, but my wife got sick on the last day. Highlights were Pyramids & Luxor + camel ride! Superb guide with genuine customer service. Really felt …

Booking the tour was good and the website was good. The itinerary was good but too busy and has extra early departures. Hotels were all excellent. The sites were all great and the felucca ride was the best. Negatives were the long talk at the temples! And a 2 hr bus should have a rest room. It was a great trip overall and excellent value for money.

The website was easy to use. The welcome meeting and airport meet & greet were excellent. I really enjoyed it and can't pick a highlight– all of it was a highlight. I only didn't enjoy the travel in the bus. I would highly recommend to others.
