This was an excellent tour. It was exceptional value for money and the best birthday ever. Everything was great and the highlight was the history given by Mahmoud. The only negative was that the weather was too cold.

The trip was excellent. The accommodation and sites were all great, as well as the guides and reps. My highlights were seeing the Sphinx and having Karnak explained. I just didn't enjoy the bus travel. I highly recommend and would definitely travel with you again.

I would have liked to have more info about the trip more than 2 weeks before. The airport pickup and welcome meeting were excellent and the guides were great. Mahmoud is very knowledgeable. The reps were always there to help! This was the best trip ever! There were no negatives, trip was perfect. It was the perfect way to see the sights in Egypt. Everything was very organised and we …

There was a mix up with our flight # and time for the airport pickup and I didn't enjoy the train overnight. But besides that, it was an excellent trip. Big Mo is the best tour guide I've ever had. He is very respectful, very knowledgeable on history and he is very professional and nice. He deeply cares about his job and the wellness of his group. It was a …

Booking and sales consultant was excellent. The airport pickup was great, but please make it clearer when is the best time to exchange currency. The sites were all great. The transport was good but please allow more leg for taller people. We had a real issue with room on the bus. The train ride was my least favourite only because of the small rooms. The felucca experience was excellent but …

Your sales team was excellent and the website was very exhaustive, plenty of info. The guide was excellent and so was the information given by him! The rep Ahmed Ali was great! The itinerary and organisation was good but some points were too fast. A negative for me was the bus ride to Hurghada. Very small. The felucca was good but I think a small heater would be nice. The …

The consultant before the tour was very helpful and quick with replies. The website had a lot of info – easy access. The guide was 10/10, so nice and not too over the top. Knows a lot. The reps were so accommodating and the pace was very easy and organised. Cairo was busy but great. Aswan was beautiful and I loved Edfu. Luxor was busy and fun. The drivers were …

Your sales team was excellent and all was perfect with the booking process =) Your website is clear and easy to understand. The sites were all excellent. My highlights were the tour guide and the food/temples. I didn't enjoy the train ride. The tour guide Big Mo was amazing and made the experience so much better than traveling without a tour! =) Thank you

Our tour guide Boudi was great – helpful, pleasant, very knowledgeable & well dressed. Other rep Wadi was poorly dressed & unfriendly. The itinerary, sites and activities were all excellent. My highlights were Luxor/Abu Simbel. I didn't enjoy the long drive to Abu Simbel. The hotels were mostly good, but the Cairo one had poor food and a bad room. The Hurghada hotel had a nice room but a bad …

The sales consultant was excellent, but emails aren't always replied to. The airport pickup was great, very friendly. Mahmoud was fantastic. Well put-together tour, great sights & good pace. The hotels were good, but slow or no internet. The transport was fantastic. One thing I didn't like was that some of the street sellers are too pushy. An excellent holiday overall, it's a fantastic trip. Well done. Thank you to …

Weather in Egypt was great and no rain. Pack accordingly if going in winter. Sightseeing was fascinating. Haven't seen pyramids yet missed first day flight to Chicago cancelled but expect great. The hotels, sites, guides, reps were all excellent. The itinerary was good but it was a lack of sleep vacation. I didn't enjoy the lack of sleep before flying. Would have liked pyramids on day 2 of tour in …
