indescribable beauty - The fleet of vehicles was impressive - modern, clean, and well-maintained. Our driver Khalil was incredibly professional and knew all the best routes to avoid traffic. He even had cold water and snacks waiting for us. Such attention to detail

Really outstanding performance - Exceptional value for money! We got so much more than we expected - luxury transportation, expert guides, delicious lunch, and even some surprise stops. Other agencies charged twice as much for half the service. These guys are the real deal!

A fun-filled trip - Our tour guide Hassan had the most amazing sense of humor! He kept us laughing throughout the entire day while still being incredibly informative. He made Egyptian history fun and memorable. My kids are still talking about his funny stories weeks later!

One of my favorite trips to Egypt - As a solo female traveller, I felt incredibly safe with Travel2Egypt. My guide, Dina, was not only knowledgeable but also made sure I was comfortable and confident everywhere we went. The team checked in with me regularly—truly professional and kind.

Unbelievable experience !!!! :) - I was in on a business trip to Cairo with my work colleagues for 1 week.. Honestly, I was very worried to travel to Egypt because of the many reports I read on Covid-19 spread in Egypt and how carelessly the government is handling it. It took me almost 2 days to decide if I would join my other co-workers in this trip or not but finally I made up my min to go. Seeing Saqqara Pyramid was one of my childhood dreams and I did not want to miss it. Unbelievable experience !!!! :) To stand in the front of the oldest man-made stone tomb was overwhelming. The place is a little bit far from Giza necropolis and we were almost in the middle of fascinating sandy desert surrounded by a punch of pyramids everywhere.. What have even tripled our enjoyment is the very.. very knowledgeable tour guide {Bassem} who transferred us to 3600 BC with his amazing guiding and his second to none sense of humor. The clever driver {Imad} who used to sanitize the car on every stop also was polite and descent. But the lunch we had in the local restaurant nearby Memphis was one of the most delicious meals I had while traveling {I am an experiences frequent traveler by the way }.. Honestly, the guys at Travel2Egypt made our day a once in a lifetime experience. Thanks for all of you..

Left us stranded… - After reading the many positive reviews, we chartered Travel2Egypt for 2 days in Cairo and then 2 days in Luxor. For Cairo, the guide and car showed up promptly and showed us around well. The car wasn’t in the best shape and the driver kept us waiting a long time at atleast 2 of the sites for pickup. Towards the end of the trip, the guide took us to a “government-sanctioned”, “authentic” gallery, which turned out to be an over-priced, privately owned tourist trap. The real kicker was that, since day 1, they demanded cash upfront for all 4 days. We were obviously uncomfortable handing it out and agreed to do so daily, during the tour itself. At the end of day 2, when we paid and were dropped off at the hotel, all of a sudden, I received a message stating that we were on our own in Luxor and that they wouldn’t be sending a car. Needless to say, this left us scrambling and stressed, a day before flying to Luxor. Fortunately, we were able to get an even better service in Luxor with better cars and guides. I would be vary of this operator…know that they are better operations with newer cars and perhaps, better guides around…
