Luxury Egypt Tours

I think Zicasso’s travel specialist did a fantastic job and oversaw everything, so we felt comfortable. We had a few incidents that were not pleasant, as in Jordan, with security holding us up going in/out, as we had binoculars that were not in our checked bags. They were really snotty at the border when we were leaving.

We also had a problem in Abu Simbel when our greeter person took us to the site. The guide was late and, once he showed up, we knew he could not go into the monuments. When we came out the first time, he was nowhere to be seen. He showed up 10 minutes later. When we came out of the second monument, again he was nowhere to be seen. Then, before the departure, he disappeared again. When people tell me they will be at a certain location and they are not there, it is disturbing.

Our professional Egyptologists at the museum, pyramids, and on the Nile were all fantastic. The driver in Jordan was always on time and did a good job. The car was small and cramped, but we liked the driver and he did a good job. All went smoothly in Jordan.

We got out the day before the bombing and were in Cairo that morning, so we did not have to deal with the war. It did make us nervous being in Egypt and we left a day early, but got home safely.

Overall, the sites were amazing and it flowed pretty smoothly, but would not have done so without the travel specialist checking in with us each day, and especially after the bombing started. I have used Zicasso three or four times and will continue to do so.

Every step was carefully curated. We felt safe and well cared for by our Zicasso travel specialist's team of expert guides. The itinerary was perfect.

Zicasso’s travel specialist did an amazing job working with us to put together an outstanding agenda and making all the arrangements on her end. The team delivered an absolutely outstanding experience in Egypt! Having one Egyptologist for the entire time was extremely helpful, and he was outstanding, making our time in Egypt extremely memorable.

Superb. Each Zicasso point person was efficient, knowledgeable, and gracious.

I was very impressed by Zicasso’s tour operator and enjoyed my trip immensely. Yes, there were a few hiccups initially that were resolved before I left for Egypt. I even spoke with the travel specialist on Zoom face-to-face before I left for my trip and my concerns were all clarified.

From the time I landed in Cairo and was met at the airport by the representative from the tour operator to when I left, things ran smoothly.

The ground teams in the different areas were very efficient. The accommodations were first class. The tours that were planned and the Egyptologists that accompanied me on these tours were very knowledgeable and went beyond what was expected or required of them. The local tours met my expectations.

The transportation provided was also first class.

They did provide exceptional service overall.

We are a group of nine college friends in our mid-70s who had an absolutely wonderful trip of a lifetime to Egypt and Jordan, planned by Zicasso’s travel specialist. Every facet was competently covered: Cairo, Aswan, Abu Simbel, a five-day dahabiya cruise down the Nile, Luxor, and onto Petra in Jordan.
