エジプト デラックス バケーションズ 12 日 11 泊

I just finished an amazing 12 day tour with "Your Egypt Tours"!!! I am well traveled, and usually piece my own trips together, but I found this to be really challenging with Egypt. After reading the reviews, and the little correspondence I'd had with the company I decided to entrust "Your Egypt Tours" with all the details. Walaa and the other customer service representatives were very responsive. They worked with my interests and were patient to tailor the perfect itinerary. They kept me updated right up until the time of my arrival, and sometimes answered my questions before I even knew I had them. The Egyptologist Guides were fantastic! Mamdouh in the North and Mamdouh in the South. Both explained Egypts past with excitement. I found them both to be so personable, and they explained things in a way that was easy to understand. The accommodations were unreal. Especially the Ben Ben near Aswan. Infact next time I might just stay there the whole time! The thing that impressed me the most happened at the end of my trip. I had a very complicated issue with my flight home. It was so screwed up, I finally told the Airport Representative Tommy to not worry about it and that I would figure things out, because International travel wasn't included in my package anyway. His response was, "Matt, let me help you", and he assisted me through the ordeal. I was so grateful for that support. Everyone at Your Egypt Tours is like this. They are professional; they do their job well, and they care about their customers. I will be using their services next time I return to Egypt! I highly recommended them!

Our family did a tour with Your Egypt Tours from Dec 17-28. We had three children ages 8, 6, and 5. We booked this tour after two my friends had previously done tours with them. They did not disappoint! The sites/tours in Egypt speak for themselves, what made this tour memorable was the professional, affable, professional service with Your Egypt Tour. When we landed, Peter M (aka Peter Parker) picked us up at the airport and facilitated a smooth arrival to our hotel (the St. Regis, which I would highly recommend) in a company van. It was quite spacious and clean. Peter had contacted me via WhatsApp 1 day prior to arriving such that I could have his number. He was available in the background throughout the entire trip. He took us to the airport on the way to Luxor, picked us up from our return trip from Aswan and also took us back when we left. He helped with baggage/checking in bag and ensuring a safe and timely departure. With three small children, we had an afternoon flight back from Aswan and the kids had not eaten. I had texted Peter about our desire to eat Koshary/Falafal at local establishments. Sultan and Peter took us to two separate restaurants for pickup. The first day was spent at Giza. The company had arranged a tour and private golf cart at the Giza. plateau. Our exceptional tour guide and Egyptologist was Mamdouh. He was with us in Cairo and traveled with us to the Black/White desert. He was very knowledgable about ancient Egypt. He also was very affable and got along with the children. We arrived to Cairo at Wed @ 2 am in the morning and started out sightseeing at 7 -8 am the next day. Mamdouh noted about the Pyramids/Sphinx and Camel ride as well as Memphis, the children were cranky/tired. He suggested we move the Saccara Pyramids to later in our time at Cairo. Something similar occurred the next day after seeing two Mosques and he took us to the park to let the kids run around a bit. Mamdouh accompanied us to the desert where we went camping. This was one of many highlights of our trip. The kids loved going down the sand dunes (sand boarding). At night, there was a barbecue which my children stated was the best chicken during the whole trip. We took a cruise from Luxor to Aswan. When we arrived in Luxor, which was 4 hour later than scheduled secondary to flight delay, our tour guide Edo took us to see the two main sites of Luxor at night. Again, we craved falafel and he took us to a local restaurant. We board the cruise, MS Movepeak Hamees. This was a small/cozy riverboat. The kids had a blast. The food was excellent, it was not that crowded during our trip. It's as quite memorable. The staff on the boat were quite attentive to the children (daily towel folded into animals on our bed when we returned from sightseeing). We absolutely loved Egypt, what made it special was the tour group/team. Mona was my main contact to help schedule/coordinate the tours/visits. She was very prompt in responding to emails/concerns/logistics of the trip. This was a private tour so it allowed lots of flexibility as noted above with smaller children and tour guides were definitely in tune with the kids fatigue/desire etc. The transportation was clean/safe and reliable. Sultan, our drive in Cairo is an amazing driver. Rarely did we leave a sight and have to wait more than a few minutes, most of the time he just there despite the crowd etc (we went in peak season, Christmas/winter holiday). Each day we were greeted with water bottles and a clean car. The food was amazing. My wife and I are vegetarians and there was plenty to eat. The kids got to try all different types of food that they wanted to eat. The egyptologists were amazing, just a wealth of knowledge. We had zero concerns for safety during the trip. With regards to cost - all the fees/entrance fees were collected when the tour was booked. An additional activities that we wanted to do, such as add-ons we paid for. Tips are customary for the guides/drivers. This is a well run, professional, knowledgeable tour company. We intend on using them for Jordan/Petra and possibly Dubai in future travels. Highly recommended and I'm sure more of my friends will use them! Thank you for such a great trip! (I do not write reviews usually, I honestly felt this team made this trip special for my family).

Our 12-day trip to Egypt with Your Egypt Tours exceeded every expectation. From the moment we landed to our final departure, the entire team provided personalized, professional, and genuinely caring service. The Guides: Knowledge, Patience, and Humor Our Egyptologists, Mamdouh (in Cairo) and Ashraf (in Luxor/on the cruise), were the undisputed highlights of the tour. Their knowledge was encyclopedic, their patience was infinite, and their humor made every temple and tomb come alive. Ashraf took us through the Valley of the Kings and Abu Simbel, making the history digestible and awe-inspiring. Mamdouh made our Cairo days a delight, sharing incredible insights into the pyramids and Islamic Cairo. Our driver, Sultan, navigated the challenging Cairo traffic with skill and professionalism, ensuring our safety and comfort every day. Exceptional Logistics & Problem Solving My husband has significant food allergies, and every member of the Your Egypt Tours team went above and beyond to ensure his safety and enjoyment. We ate safely and experienced the true delights of Egyptian cuisine, thanks to their vigilance. When things went wrong that were completely outside of their control—namely, lost luggage and flight delays—the team was immediately on top of it, providing constant communication and stress-free solutions. They truly made the difference in turning potential travel disasters into minor inconveniences. The Seamless Experience & Personalized Service Our representative, Peter (who we affectionately called Peter Parker!), deserves special recognition. Peter handled all the transitions seamlessly and was our dinner companion, making incredible local restaurant recommendations and helping us order complex dishes safely. This personalized attention elevated the entire trip. The team also bent over backwards to accommodate last-minute additions to our itinerary, including arranging a hot air balloon ride in Luxor and even making a side-trip so we could touch the Mediterranean Sea in Alexandria. In summary: If you are looking for an expertly managed, high-touch, and deeply enriching journey through Egypt, book with Your Egypt Tours. We learned so much, saw so much, and had a truly incredible, stress-free adventure.

Mamdouh is the most interesting Egyptologist and we had such a wonderful time with him and our driver Johnny! Johnny was such a great driver navigating the busy streets of Cairo...and Peter greatly assisted us at the airport and such a professional. We'd highly recommend this 12 day tour with the Nike River cruise and ALL the temples, museums, and mosques Egypt has to offer. We felt safe through our entire journey. Thank you Ahmed, for this fantastic itinerary and trip we will always remember.

Recently returned from a 10 day tour to Egypt with my Dad and it was AMAZING. Highly recommend checking a visit to Egypt off your bucket list!! Our wonderful experience in large part was thanks to Your Egypt Tours. From the moment we arrived at the Cairo airport and were greeted by Ahmed, to the moment Ahmed saw us back off at the airport, they gave us five star EXCEPTIONAL service and we were well cared for 100% of the time. Each day, we had a nice air conditioned private van, excellent driver (shout out to Johnny in Cairo and Ahmed in Luxor), and without doubt, some of THE BEST Egyptologists. Mamdouh gave us expert tours of Saqqara, Giza, the museums, the mosques, and old Cairo. He was funny, engaging, passionate about teaching us, and ensured we were well taken care of. Ashraf gave us incredible tours of Luxor, Aswan, and along our Nile Cruise stops. Ashraf is the MOST knowledgeable Egyptologist there is in all of Egypt, hands down. (Well, I didn't witness ALL the others in the country... but he has got to be tops, no doubt.) In addition to giving us excellent information about each site we visited, I daily asked him questions about every carving or painting or hieroglyph we came across, and 100% of the time, he knew the answer. I call him Mr. Google, because no matter what I asked, he had the answer. He was incredible. His potential is well beyond simply giving my Dad and myself tours... He should be teaching at University or be on documentaries. We felt extremely lucky to have him and I highly recommend you choose Your Egypt Tours for numerous reasons, top of which is Ash. Beyond that, Ash and Mamdouh are both genuinely great people. Mona is the person you communicate with in planning the trip, and in addition to the rave reviews I had read online about the company, my interactions with her were what sold me on booking with them. She was always prompt, professional, and extremely kind. The owner of the company checked in with us prior to the tour and mid-tour to make sure we were doing well. My Dad had to change his travel plans departing from Cairo, and their team was extremely kind in helping arrange a few more nights there and another transport to the airport. Tips: 1.) Initially I had booked a group tour with National Geographic, however could not find many reviews of them online and instead found outstanding reviews of this company and they offer private tours for less cost, so I changed. Our private tour allowed us to spend as much time as wanted in each site, and to adjust our itinerary as we pleased. It was perfect! 2.) Initially I was a bit worried that there was too much downtime in our itinerary, but it actually was needed! It was a bit exhausting visiting all the sites, so a bit of down time actually turned out nice. You can always add things while you are there if you are feeling spry/wanting more. 3.) Factor in a bit extra money for tips throughout the trip. There was quite a bit of tipping throughout, always at your own discretion and not obligatory. 4.) Egypt felt very safe and friendly throughout our stay. The tragic conflict between Hamas and Israel started while we were there on our tour, causing our family members back home to panic, but there in Egypt, we both felt very safe the entire time. I would encourage people to still go to Egypt (at least as things currently stand) as their country is safe and lovely. 5.) Prior to going, I read traveler blogs and reviews talking about aggressive salesmen constantly hounding foreigners. While yes, there are salespeople at all the tourist spots and they are desperate to make a living, my experience was that they were for the most part all respectful and good sports. Simply say "no thank you" (sometimes a few times) and it is all good. I also started giving in when realizing that often what they are selling costs only one dollar and it makes a huge difference to them. Overall, Your Egypt Tours was an OUTSTANDING company, I am extremely grateful for their kindness and exceptional service, and I would give them, and Egypt, my highest recommendation. The remains of Ancient Egypt are definitely worth seeing in person!

It may sound a cliche, but going to Egypt was a dream and "Your Egypt Tours" made it real. There is so much I can tell about my experience in Egypt and by using the services of "Your Egypt Tours", but I would like to keep it as short as possible with some information that could be useful for other travelers that could be trying to decide if visiting Egypt is worth the effort, time and money (short answer, it definitely is): 1. It is safe to go to Egypt, I want to stress this as much as possible, it is very safe to visit Egypt. Never while I was there I felt in danger or I saw something that would make me feel nervous or worried, nor for me or for other tourists on other tours even with other companies, take regular precautions, be informed, but it is definitely safe. 2. Book a tour like this to avoid scams or hustlers. While you read reviews or watch videos, you may get a wrong idea around this topic, yes it can be bad, they can be very insistent, the best way to avoid this problem is to have a team of professionals around you at all times, and believe me, this is "Your Egypt Tours", I never suffered from this problem, getting in and out from touristic places was smooth and fast. 3. Likely you will still want to do some shopping, I would say, you must do some. Once again you will be with a team of professionals, if you do not want to spend much on souvenirs, make sure you talk about this to your Egyptlogist guide, they take you to the right places. If what you want is quality (I was particularly happy with my cotton based stuff), once again, they will take you to the right places, but of course, prices will be higher. 4. I will probably recommend traveling on September, still some large crowds, but I can only assume that less people than in winter time, it is hot, but I would say it is manageable. That is all above general recommendations. Regarding "Your Egypt Tours", I do not want to mention the names of the Egyptologists guides that were with me in fear of missing someone, but it was a team with deep knowledge of Egypt, probably many of my questions where naive or came from total ignorance, but they answered everything I asked, they shared so much information and even provided suggestions for added activities to the tour originally booked and all of them were wonderful experiences. But this is a team, there are some people I never met that handled all the booking, which was nice and easy and they accommodated my requests easily and then others like the drivers that, once again, a team of professionals that know how to get from one place to another on a very comfortable transportation with AC, which is pretty much mandatory with the weather, so you just get worried about what is going to be exciting on the next visit. And if that is not all, there was always someone that got me from/to airports, such and incredible service and team. Egypt is full of wonders, of course you want to see the great pyramids up close, specially if you can do it at sunset, same as the Luxor temple, or a visit to a Nubian village if you have the time. And there is nothing that can prepare you to see the temples of Abu Simbel, if you can do this tour, trust "Your Egypt Tours" and enjoy a fantastic trip.

I can't thank Your Egypt Tours enough for making my first experience to Egypt so positive. From the customer service to the top-notch tour guides, I felt very taken care of. Booking: They were so accommodating when helping me find the right package. I booked only a couple of weeks out and they were very flexible as I needed to make changes along the way. Safety: I was a woman traveling alone and of course my biggest concern going was safety. I felt very safe at all times. Someone from the team always escorted me everywhere and there was always a driver waiting in an air-conditioned van with water during the sight-seeing experiences. Tour guides: Both of my tour guides-- Taha and Ashraf-- were so knowledgeable and excited to share with me. They were also really kind and fun people to be around. *I also enjoyed Ahmed, who wasn't my tour guide but helped me with checking into places. I'm so grateful to this company for making my dream of visiting Egypt a reality and for treating me with such care. Thank you!

We are a family of 4, 2 children aged 7 and 12. While it was a very active and at times tiresome tour, it couldn’t have been better organized!!!! From the airport pickup to sites and tour guides, everything was superb. Ahmed planned our vacation and was very responsive and accommodating. Taha was our guide in Cairo and he was amazing! As well as Ash who spent the rest of the time with us! Perfect English, very knowledgeable and professional! The minivan and drivers were great too! Overall, we couldn’t be happier with our experience!
