Egypt Travel Agents & Reviews

The trip was fantastic - everything went smoothly and was efficient and as detailed in our itinerary. Melanie was very thorough - even setting up a briefing call for us to review the itinerary and details. She checked in frequently on various forms and requirements, as well as when we were in-country. 

Our travel company was very helpful in the trip planning and development of an itinerary based on areas we wanted to see. They modified the itinerary as needed and answered questions very timely.We had a great time on our trip to Turkey! The guide they provided did a wonderful job and accompanied us throughout the trip which was very helpful. All of the transportation cars and drivers were excellent which my husband really enjoyed. The tours all started on time and covered everything we wanted. They were also flexible if needed based on our needs. All of the hotels we stayed at were great and had good English speaking staff which was very helpful.  Overall, I would highly recommend this travel agency for Turkey trips!  

Absolutely wonderful experience. This travel company took care of every detail with great care, from pickup and navigating the airport, to making sure we had a great hotel room, to amazing tour guides. The two Egyptologists we had were perfect for our family- they had a wealth of information and also were great with our young kids. The company provided us with a mobile hotspot and a cell phone. Both of these provided a piece of comfort. They were always on call for anything we needed help with. I felt totally comfortable traveling with them with our family the entire time. 

The trip was incredible and the travel agency was the perfect partner for us. We had a group of 8 (one in a wheelchair and two who had been to Egypt before) and together we designed a tour that worked wonderfully for all of us. They listened to our desires and built them into the overall itinerary. The in-country tour guides were some of the best we have ever had (we are veteran travelers and have experienced guides of all levels over the years). In particular, our guide in Egypt was not only incredibly knowledgable and interesting, he was a trouble shooter and very flexible. For example, on a free afternoon we wanted to explore the markets of Cairo and he promptly arranged horse carriages for us so our wheel chair bound friend could accompany us. Our travel company also made sure that we spent one day seeing sites that are completely off the tourist route (we were alone in both temples). Five star all the way!

Our trip to Egypt was fabulous - way beyond our expectations. The ease of getting from place to place with our drivers and guides made the trip more relaxing. It was nice to not worry about navigating Egypt on our own. We loved all of the local guides and representatives that our travel company chose for us. They were extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. The overall itinerary of the trip was nice, but we wish we could have customized it a little more since we were more interested in history and archeology than dining and shopping. The local guides made our trip so memorable, and they worked tirelessly to tailor our trip to what we wanted. We would recommend this travel agency to friends and family. We went on this trip thinking it would be a once in a lifetime experience, and we left wanting to plan a return trip to Egypt because it was so incredibly amazing. We would use this travel team again to help us plan our second trip. 

    Ahmed of this travel company was wonderful. He spent a great deal of time setting up a very customized tour of Cairo, Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel. The sightseeing and the coordination of the activities was well conceived and well executed. I have mobility difficulties, and the wheelchair assistant made a huge difference in being able see and navigate the various tombs and monuments. I was able to experience many things that may not have been possible without such planning and teamwork.  Ahmed was very flexible and helpful in creating the itinerary that best suited my interests and my mobility limitations. The hotels were good and the hotel in Luxor was particularly special.    I did have difficulty with the guide in Aswan and Luxor. He gave information about the tombs, and even helped with photos and the wheelchair, but he gave very little information on the cities we we’re visiting. He seemed to try to cut out items in the itinerary.Several examples:   I specifically requested shopping in Aswan Nubian art. He said that I would not be able to tolerate the shopping area in Aswan because of my wheelchair. I said if that is true, what about a crafts center or store? He said that there was none in Aswan, the place to go for that was Luxor. When we got to Luxor, he wanted to take me Alabaster store. I told him I was not interested in that. I said I wanted to see Nubian and other Egyptian crafts, and he said that is not available in Luxor. I said I wanted to go to a Crafts center, and he said that they are all the same, and that I refused the one he wanted to take me to. Needless to say I never got to see any Crafts centers in Luxor.  When I was in Aswan, and the guide advised against the shopping area, I said I wanted to replace it some other activity. He said how about “downtown Aswan”? I said fine. Five minutes later, he announced that there was nothing to see downtown. He said we will drive near the Nile. We drive north of Aswan for 5 minutes, and then returned to the hotel. It was extremely frustrating!  My last example,….. Edfu was on my itinerary. When we were nearing Edfu, the guide announced that Edfu was not very interesting. I had wished that he gave me some warning so I could possibly do some research on what else we could have substituted if we did not visit Edfu. I said that I definitely wanted to replace another site with Edfu if we not stop there. He did eventually offer to substitute a visit to Habu the next day. (Which was a nice stop). It seemed like the guide wanted to shorten my itinerary, and usually with no advance warning. 

We had a great trip with only a few glitches which we would expect and were resolved quickly.  The guides were outstanding very competent and gave us insight to understanding the culture and history and of Egypt and Jordan.  We felt very safe as we traveled.
