About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- tourr9710 contributionsBeyond the usual narrativeWe learned lots with our guide Khalid, who is an Egyptologists with a university background, but goes beyond the usual narrative, and has even written books. He worked hard to take care of our every need, give us special treatment and take us beyond the usual boundaries of the places we visited. He has a sense of humour too.Written 27 September 2024
- Roam6436240 contributionsAmazing tour of Luxor with Viator.Amazing trip. Took overnight sleeper train from Cairo to Luxor. Train got in early so Hani Yassin, our tour guide who was waiting at the platform suggested we try and get to the hot air balloons. This was amazing as we just got there in time to get the sunrise balloon - a dram for my wife we thought we would miss! Then great time with useful information and also very flexible with our needs. Even going vegan food for us (and did this on the house!) driver Imad was very professional throughout. We finished off at Luxor and even saw it lit up on way to return sleeper train back to Cairo. Both my wife and I would highly recommend this team and also have them arrange your travels as they are the real deal!Written 26 September 2024
- J3262WXamyb0 contributionsLuxor to AswanWe had a great time with our guide, Khaled. He is very experienced & incredibly knowledgeable. He brought us to key features of the temples and tombs on our tour. He provided insights about ancient Egyptian history, culture, religion, architecture, language, art, politics and more. He always worked to accommodate us, and provide us with the best tour possible. Thank you for an unforgettable experience, Khaled!Written 25 September 2024
- Sherpa359023085860 contributionsTravelling through EgyptWe did a lot of nice activities such as riding a camel and sleeping in the white desert. The temples are wonderful and they have a beautiful culture and history. The guides also know what they are talking about and are very passionate about their country.Written 15 September 2024
- 650willemh0 contributionsGreat time in EgyptThe ancient monuments are amazing! Everybody can look at photos, but it is only when you see it in real life you can truely marvel at it! How did the people of the past build all of this (knowing that also a BIG part is missing) ?! The guide will tell you that this would not be possible today. Well, it is ... but nobody will try this today with primitive tools. The people of the past did have a different mindset, try to understand the mind of the ancient Egyptians. Some tips: prepare for the heat, don't pay attention to those who are trying to sell things to you, and things can be a bit more expensive than you think (but you're making a trip like this only once!).Written 15 September 2024
- Wander547852511430 contributionsRelaxingWhen you're ok with paying for 'extras' during the trip, it's nice. Travelling with a larger group, it could add up... Guide knows what he's talking about and is crazy about his culture.Written 15 September 2024
- philkE6064II0 contributionsTake the cruise, skip the trainOur guide was knowledgeable, helpful and patient. The tours were well-planned and informative. The boat offered every convenience you’d expect in a first class hotel with a friendly and attentive staff However, I’d suggest finding transportation to and from the cruise portion of the trip rather than taking the train. While efficient, the cars are filthy and not in good shape. Nearly every window is cracked or broken, carpeting is stained and torn, many berth lights do not work, the food is okay at best, the WCs are disgusting. Not the best way to start or end the otherwise pleasurable trip.Written 9 August 2024
- Trickytraveller43210 contributionsAmazing experience - highly recommendIt was an amazing couple days and really helped make our trip special. Sherif was very knowledgeable and we learnt a lot from him. We were unsure whether to use a guide or not but were very glad we chose to as it made the experience even better and he helped us navigate around. Our driver was also fantastic. We had communication from the moment we booked so if we had any questions, there was someone to answer them. If you're on the fence about booking a guided tour, don't hesitate - its worth every penny. We will be using this company again when we come back to tour Aswan and Luxor.Written 2 August 2024

- huhanad20240 contributionsAmazing and memorable experienceWe got to visit so many temples and had wonderfully experienced, friendly and knowledgeable tour guides to help us understand the significance and history of each temple with Khaled.Written 6 July 2024
- mikemN1152KD0 contributionsEgypt River NileWe had a great time in Egypt! People were very friendly and the sites were incredible. We learned a lot of history. We did book a hot air balloon ride that got canceled due to the weather. We informed our tour guide, Khaled about this and said we would get a refund. We went to some other sites instead. Highly recommended!Written 17 June 2024

- 560siphem0 contributionsIncredible tour through Cairo and Luxor!Incredible experience through Cairo and Luxor! The tour is well organized, has clear communication and all the accommodation is safe and clean All my tour guides were incredible. Fardouse was my guide in Cairo - she was very knowledgeable on all the pyramids, tombs and sights. Khaled El Saady was my guide in Luxor - he was remarkable with his knowledge of the temples and tombs! All the drivers especially Islam were remarkable and Peter ensured I had full knowledge of the plan at every step. Incredible experience all round with so many memories and beautiful photos. Everyone went above and beyond! Definitely request Fardouse, Khaled and Islam when you book this tour! They are so wonderful, knowledgeable and helpfulWritten 16 March 2024
- Sitabai_travelor0 contributionsThis company provides top notch experiences and careThis company took good care of me. I got canceled from my booked tour from another company the night before arriving in Egypt (no kidding), and Peter made it his personal mission to make sure I had a tour when I arrived the next day. Sure enough, my driver was waiting. They had to be creative on how to blend me into another group with no notice, but they did it, and I never missed a thing on my trip. Then, unfortunately, I got Traveler's Trots REALLY bad and had to stay on the River Nile Cruise sleeping in my room (which is lovely), so I missed seeing a few temples. My guide then, Tata, went and got me some medicine that worked wonders, and also super fast. My doctor at home said it was the right thing to do for me, so I was lucky to have this help. I couldn't believe the difference, because it saved the last few days of my trip, and that was in Luxor that you don't want to miss! All around, I was super taken care of. So just because it says Egypt on a Budget don't equate that with lower class experiences because everything is top notch. Book with confidence, these people are great.Written 16 November 2023
- Guide037780605740 contributionsA IkeEvery day your activities will start very early. Your guide will WhatsApp the itinerary of the day. Ours, Khaled El saady Was very punctual on sending the itineraries the night before, with all the detailed information, The anticipation of what’s Ahead will help to forget that you got up at 4 o’clock in the morning. The temples are amazing. One is greater and more magnificent than the next. The month of October is very crowded because everybody loves to come after the long, hot Summer moms so expect to see a lot of people expect to have people pushing you getting in front of you to take their selfie’s and their photos. Never the less the experience is unforgettable.Written 12 October 2023
