Talaat is an incredible guide. Extremely knowledgeable, and goes above and beyond to make your experience a great one. - I’ve been on many guided tours in my life, and I can say, without a doubt, Talaat Abdo is one of the best guides I’ve ever had. He is incredibly knowledgeable, the vast knowledge he carries of Egyptian history and the areas we visited were incredible. Not only that, but he is incredibly friendly. You can talk to him about anything and everything, related or not to your trip. He is helpful and will go above and beyond for you. If you plan a trip to Egypt, make sure it is with Tallat. Thank you for making Egypt a great experience.

Cruising on the Nile and enjoying the Temples - What a brilliant tour! The ship was incredibly relaxing, complete with an ever-attentive crew, and watching the Nile flow by was a truly calming experience. Our tour guide, Mina, was exceptional. He was very knowledgeable, bringing the history of the ancient Egyptian temples to life. Beyond his professional duties, Mina went above and beyond when he helped me retrieve my lost phone and even paid for my flight back to Cairo. I can't speak highly enough of him.
