Great experience! - I recently went on a Nile cruise in Egypt with my mother, organized by Egypt Knight Tour, and it was an incredible experience.
Firstly, their communication and availability were top-notch, making the booking process smooth and stress-free. Despite the agency primarily being Anglophone, we were pleasantly surprised by the excellent French-speaking guides, especially Zaki, who was not only friendly but also extremely knowledgeable. The overall organization of the trip was impeccable, from airport transfers to daily excursions. Additionally, the tour offered great value for money, considering the quality of service and experiences provided.
We also opted for a tour of Cairo, which was seamlessly arranged by the agency upon our request.
Highly recommend Egypt Knight Tour for anyone planning a trip to Egypt!

Wonderful and well taken care of in Egypt - We loved have our tour guide Jimmy. He was simply perfect. He made us feel well taken care of and we knew we were in good hands. From picking us up
At the airport to drop off and every single day in between, we had the most amazing time and Jimmy was great at educating us, helping us understand all (including
tips) and helping as a joy. We felt no pressure to make un warranted stops or purchase - I whole heartedly Recommend Jimmy and Egypt Knight tours and will spread the word. Bravo

Excellent experience - We took a customised tour for 8 days and had a great experience! The tour guides were excellent and took care of us right from the day we landed (immigration etc) till our departure . The accommodation and other arrangements were excellent. Mr Mahmoud was always available on WhatsApp and took care of all our travel needs. The different guides at Cairo, Luxor, Aswan were also very good. We loved the balloon ride, camel rides, horse carriage rides etc. We will definitely recommend their services to everyone. Thank you

9 days of Egypt - Egypt was on our bucket list since childhood. In our mid fifties, we finally managed a trip out there.
This tour agency (Mahmud) took care of every single need right from airport pickup to drop off after 9 days. Cairo, Alexandria, Luxor and Aswan with a personal knowledgeable and personable guide made the experience alive and unforgettable. The guides are well informed, very easy to get along (Mohammad Saad). I would highly recommend this business.
PS: outside your package with the tour company, please keep lot of change for tipping through the day to any human touch points. It gets tedious and difficult, but lets accept it as part of the culture and a different experience of present day Egypt

Fantastic! - We were a family of 7 people and had a private guide Mahmood. He was fantastic, super professional and could tell a lot about ancient Egypt. It really added value to our trip. We really recommend this travel guide and boat tour!

The Egyptian Nile cruise was amazing. - Of the various tours, I didn't want to ride in a hot air balloon (I'm scared of heights), so I joined this tour. The result was very good!!
There was an additional charge for a Japanese guide, but even with that included, it was a good tour so it felt cheap.
I think this price is cheap considering breakfast, lunch, dinner, accommodation, and tours.
As an additional option, they proposed a tour to see the hot air balloons in Aswan and an Egyptian village.
I was scared of heights and had no interest, so I immediately declined, but they readily agreed without the typical Egyptian pushiness.
There were only me and my friend on the tour, so we were able to take our time.
We left our luggage on the boat and went on the tour, so it was light and easy.
The guide was a very nice person who taught us Arabic and told us about interesting history and mythology. Thank you very much.
We weren't told in advance which boat we would be riding on, but it was a pretty good boat.
There were few Japanese people on the boat due to the influence of Egypt's neighboring country, and many Chinese people. It's very disappointing.
There is nothing wrong with Egypt itself, so I hope that the number of Japanese tourists will increase.
I was able to tour Cairo, Egypt on my own, but Abu Simbel, Aswan, and Luxor are not as urban as Cairo, so I recommend joining a tour.
If you don't want to join a tour with a lot of options (a busy tour), you might want to join this tour.
I happened to be able to join a tour with a Japanese guide, so I recommend having a Japanese guide.
You might want to inquire once to see if a Japanese guide can be provided. This tour company contacts you immediately, so it's easy to check.
I've written a lot, but I'm glad I joined this tour. Thank you.

Great trip and amazing guide :) - We are very happy with our trip with Knight Tours. Everything was as expected and we did not have any problem. When you travel to a country as Egypt, you really need to be prepared and to be supported by a good agency; without it, it can be chaotic and you can fell unsafe.
In our case, all the transports have been very confortable private cars and with air conditioner (this is quite important when it's 50 degress outside!)
The cruise was good too. We selected the luxury option (there was a standard one and a very luxury too) and we are happy with our election. The room was clean and confortable (even you have to know that 5 stars in Egypt are not 5 stars in Spain, for example).
We would like to do an special mention to our guide, Hany. We've been very confortable with him and learned a lot of things about Egypt and its history. He's a great egygptologist and has shown us all the details, curiosities and stories about the different temples and places that we hace visited. In addition, he has been our "colleague" here. When we've needed something he has just resolved and It and have taken us to the ATM, to the McDonald's, to the local shops, etc.
To sum up, everything was great with Knight Tours and we feel very comfortable with Hany and the our trip :)

Phenomenal trip - The service we received from Egypt Knights was unparalleled. We were already in Egypt when we booked the cruise and they even booked our flights for us. The explanation of each site we visited was interesting and thorough, but the explanations of the questions we had about the general culture were even better. Our guide, Mahmoud, was very clear when it came to itinerary and entrance fees, and he helped us select the options he thought we would enjoy the most as some of the sites have options and he knew my family would have preferences for what we actually experienced. We booked an Airbnb in Luxor after the cruise and Mahmoud communicated with the host to make sure we got checked in safely, and Egypt Knights provided a van the following morning to take us to the airport.
