Your website was easy to navigate, organized. The Hurghada hotel was different, but great. Everything on the tour was excellent, especially all historical sites. I learned a lot of really good information. There weren't any negatives.

I found booking the tour to be good, but I hope your company send a complete tour voucher & plan before I leave home (I got after I landed at Cairo Airport). The hotels were good and the sites all excellent. I did not enjoy the train toilets/sickness at Aswan. The team very fun & friendly and the hot air balloon was the best. I enjoyed it a lot overall.

Booking the tour was excellent, the consultant was amazing & so knowledgeable. The website was easy to use. The airport pickup was poor– the guide was late and we got nervous. The welcome meeting was excellent– the guide Waleed is the best, better than I could have imagined! The hotels were excellent and the sites were great. The transport was average and I did not enjoy the train meals. The …

Would have liked to have known about the entrance fees before the tour. The hotels were mostly average. I didn't enjoy some things at them. The sites visited were all great as well as the felucca experience. The highlight was going inside the Great Pyramid. I enjoyed it greatly overall.

The highlight of the tour was meeting the Sakara. Everything was excellent. I only didn't enjoy the sleeper in the train. Waleed our tour guide was fantastic. I am very happy to be with him in our trip. I loved his charisma, his dedication and how much he tells the stories.

Booking process was good, but would have liked more information in items to bring for hygiene (wet wipes, etc.) The website was okay – needed more detail. Accommodation was mostly good, but the Aswan hotel was dirty– food made people sick. I also didn't enjoy the train ride– food & dirty. The tour overall was excellent, all the sights were great. Cairo was awesome!! The felucca was really fun, but …

Virtually everything on the tour was excellent– accommodation, transport, sites, guides, pace and organisation. I only didn't enjoy the train rides. Great value for money and I would definitely travel again with you.

I had an excellent time overall. The buses were great but the train was bad. My favourites were seeing the pyramids & Nubian village & felucca. I didn't enjoy Luxor in general. Sharif did awesome. Well informed, helpful, and energetic. Would've liked more time at Cairo markets & pyramids.

An excellent tour overall. But I don't like the shopping on the last day, it ruined my plan. Cuz I tried to wear Egyptian clothes to photograph with pyramids or sphinx but I have no chance :'(( My highlight was seeing pyramid. Sharif is doing very good job! Humour, careful and rich knowledge. Let me enjoy the whole trip. And I hope to stay in the pyramid and sphinx for …

The website was clear and concise and the booking process was excellent. Almost everything was excellent, I only didn't enjoy the train ride and the Luxor hotel plumbing needs work. My highlights were Karnak Temple and the hot air balloon ride. Best tour guide (Waleed) I have ever had anywhere in the world! He made this experience a lifelong memory!
