What travellers say after touring Egypt with us.
I went with my family on this trip for twelve days. The agency was very respectful with our preferences and budget. The transport was scheduled and we got the opportunity to visit various monuments along a marvelous guide called Ahmed Nasser.
Egypt tour group handled our 12 day tour perfectly. I can’t say enough of how all the arrangements we set up from the moment we got to Cairo airport there was always someone there to meet us. We transferred through 2 airports 4 cities and mutable hotels and never had to wait.
Excellent tour company! We did three tours. One day touring some of the Pyramids, a day trip to Alexandria and an epic 2 day trip from Cairo to Sinai to climb Mount Sinai. Excellent tour company!
Marian was absolutely wonderful!! She was a wealth of knowledge . She guided us to important parts of each temple and tomb.Letting us know what the meaning for the particular inscription.
We had Ayoub as our tour guide, he was absolutely amazing. Very knowledgable on Egypt and spoke English well. He also has a personality that is very easy to get along with and made our trip enjoyable
I went to Egypt recently and I had as a guide Mr Mohamed El Shemei which was excellent and made our experience amazing. He knew so much of Egypts history and he filled us with information however making sure it wasn’t boring.
