“I enjoyed the people on this tour. We moved as a family and we enjoyed being ourselves. I have visited Egypt before but this time it came alive for me”

“The pyramids were my favourite site. I have always dreamt about going to them and I totally enjoyed being there after years of hoping , my dream came true”

FAVOURITE PLACES VISITED 

“It was a dream to visit Egypt so I have achieved my goal to see first-hand the work of the Ancient Egyptians. There are many highlights, too many to put in an order of preference as each day my mind was blown away by yet another amazing site. The Great Pyramids, the Valley of the Kings, Abu Simbel, The Egyptian Museum in Cairo, the trip to Alexandria and so on was equally amazing. I could write more. I would like to go again and bring my family to witness the greatness of these Ancient people”

“Abu Simbel and Luxor Temple was like walking with giants. Incredible experience. The research I did online did not give the same feeling as witnessing this with your own eyes. Seeing is truly believing. I would recommend this tour to all. It was excellent value”

“My favourite place that I visited was Valley of the Kings. I got very emotional when I visited the tombs. I started crying upon exiting the very first tomb. I was just in complete awe. I found it all very emotional, overwhelming and magnificent. I felt so proud and humbled”

“The Valley of the Kings, entering the tombs and analysing the carvings and artwork- awesome!”

“I enjoyed Abu Simbel Temple despite the early start in the morning. The sites were amazing. This reinforced to me that the Egyptians were extremely intelligent and very creative people. The statues were gigantic”

“I thoroughly enjoyed my tour of Egypt. I have always wanted to travel to Egypt to see the history. I had great expectations of the tour but my expectations was exceeded by what I saw. The sites were magnificent. I did not realise how much history Egypt held. Michael our tour guide was exceptional, he made everyone feel welcome, was very professional at all times and answered all of our questions. I felt safe in Egypt despite what the media portrayed.”

“It was exciting! All the accommodation that I stayed at were excellent, above what I expected. Accommodation is an important part of a holiday. Transportation was very good too. Given the amount of travelling we had to do, the transportation was spot on. The camel ride was unexpected too. Everything was great. Thank you so much!”

“Well done! I enjoyed my time on the tour as I have always wanted to go to Egypt. I will be recommending this tour and expressing how much places we had seen in a short space of time. All your hard work has paid off so keep up with the excellent work!”
