Excursion privée de 7 nuits au Caire, Assouan, et croisière sur le Nil avec vols inclus

Tour was decent. The additional tours ranged from $50-$200 usd if you travel solo. The tour guides are very aggressive with telling you how much to tip each day. One even texted me via whats app to tell me he's upset I didn't tip his driver. The Hilton hotel was 3star at best. The Nile boat had better rooms than the Hilton. If I could do it again I would piece together my own trip.

My biggest disappointment of this tour is that I didn't have a chance to meet Mr. Salah. From the very beginning Mr. Salah was kind, considerate so accommodating. Even though this was a package Mr. Salah and his staff were always available to make sure the tour was exactly what we wanted. For example, our flight arrived at 1:30am by the time we got to our hotel it was nearly 3:00am but when we went to check in they couldn't find our reservation. I sent Mr. Salah a text that he answered right away and within just a few minutes we had our room. Mr. Salah and his team were flexible with the itinerary allowing us to add side trips and even cancel those side trips when other things came up. The guides were knowledgeable and well informed about all the places we visited and things we saw. Their explanations and detailed enhanced the trip and we left feeling that we didn't just see Egypt we got got to know the history, culture and the people. The guides were always right on time. It was an excellent trip.

I can't say enough about one of the most fantastic trips I've ever had in my life!!!! There were a few things I'd like to change, things that I'd do differently--but the trip, as designed by the companies Viator and Explore Plus Holidays was exceptional. Everything I needed was right at my fingertips and the care taken to ensure my complete comfort and whim was handled with the utmost precision. This is the company I would recommend, in a heartbeat, to provide the most amazing trip possible to Egypt. When I go back, I'm starting with the fine folks of Explore Plus Holidays. The guides, Ibrahim and Ragab, worked so hard to make sure every aspect of the tour exceeded my expectations. And, they succeeded. Thank you!!! And the drivers, Joseph and I can't remember their names, kept us safe and out of roadside dangers!!! I chose this company on a guess. Viator had done a decent job for me before, so I took a chance and tried them again. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I shall trust you, again, for my next trip. This was an amazing experience. My one suggestion would be to include entrance fees into the price. I really felt nickled and dimed TO DEATH!!!!! Give me one set price--I'd pay happily! But having to fork out fee after fee after fee was the MOST disappointing aspect of the entire trip. I understand the reason--but, folks, I'd rather pay those fees up front than have to pull my wallet out every single time I wanted to see something important. I know you warned us up front that entrance fees are not included, but half-way through the tour, I was ready to give over my first-born just to skip the part of having to pay yet ANOTHER entrance fee. If you want to see Egypt--in the best possible way--go with these folks!!!

The tour offers just accommodation and not even always food. Everything else is extra: All temple entrances, tips (They insist a bit too much on that) etc. But the optional tours are just totally overpriced, basically I spent more money for that than for the whole tour. The knowledge of the guides was ok, but not overwhelming; a few times they could not answer my questions, or even gave me wrong info.

I booked this tour, and immediately Mr. Salah confirmed on Whatsapp the details of my trip, answered quickly all my messages, and sent pictures and names of representatives at Cairo airport and guide. After the arrival, inside the airport, Mr. Hedra was waiting for me, helped with the visa, filled the form, no line, and carried my luggage, we went with the driver until Mr. Sobhi, the guide in Cairo, joined and while crossing the City to Giza explained a lot about his country and culture. The tour to the Pyramids was like a dream, he was explaining to me, considering my previous knowledge, and cared about everything during my stay. At Cairo Museum he showed details that i could never learn without his help. In Asswan, outside the airport, Mr. Ahmed was waiting. We visited the Dam, the unfinished Obelisk, and the next morning, very early, with a kind driver, we traveled 300 km to Abu Simbel. That was incredible! And 300 km back to Aswan where the Nile cruise started. All the tour I was asked if everything was ok, and that makes me feel very comfortable. In Edfu he told the driver that he should be very careful and that was very nice, because I was afraid of the horses running fast, that could be dangerous especially due to my sight retina problems. It was a pleasant trip. In Luxor he was the best guide I could expect, his family is from Luxor, and he explained not only the temples, sculptures, monuments, and all the precious treasures everybody can see: he also talked about his family, culture, social rules, habits. We had interesting conversations in different languages also Russian, and different subjects incl. Football World Cup. I really spent a wonderful time in Egypt, both guides speak perfect English and are great photographers: they know exactly where I should stand in each place, what is very important for a solo traveler, who has to ask others, not always experts, or just take selfies what is more difficult because of the sun... Now i keep all those memories, and share them with family and friends as Señora Travels. Thank you for this wonderful week, my first time in Egypt. Show less

The good: Very good guide on the cruise. Mahmood was full of information, stories and answered all our questions. He gave us ample of time at the sights and was not pushy at all. Noor, the guide who took us to the museum was wonderful and very lively. Overall, the itinerary was well managed. While the boat was dated, the service and food was decent. The not so good: I had to chase at least three times and heard only the day before what our detailed trip was going to look like. The initial guide in Cairo was very pushy with all the 'additional tour packages'. Our airport transfer on the last day did not show up and we had to arrange for a car last minute on our own. The constant tipping is very annoying. Unlike every where else in the world where one would expect to tip only when the service is good and required, on the trip there was constant demand for tipping at each point irrespective of how the service was. The hotel in Cairo was really dated and the breakfast was horrible Overall, shop around- there are plenty of others providing similar services and your punt may pay off with a better operator
