Excellent trip - After an initial mix up, the office sent incorrect details to our pick up, Mohammed,and we were off. Approx 4.5 hours later, driving through mountains and villages, we picked up our guide, Alaadin. He took us to various places and was really informative and interesting about the history of Egypt. The trip was tailored to our needs. We weren't interested in shopping. So these places were omitted. We took a trip on the Nile to Banana Island (extra charge). The growing pattern of the banana was interesting. But it was a shame seeing the crocodile and monkeys locked away in those conditions. Lunch was at an all you can eat buffet and was very tasty. All in all, a long day. But very enjoyable. Thanks Mohammed for all the driving and to Alaadin for making history come to life

Personal and WOW - Admin team sent incorrect details to driver. So 30mins later we were on our way. Muhammed. the driver was great. Alaadin, our guide (Archiologist and Egyptologist) was informative, humorous and altered the trip to our needs. There was only the 2 of us on the tour. It was fantastic. Would definitely recommend.

Greatest Tour Ever - Driver Amin and Tour Guide Mahmoud make the perfect pair! We were messaged ahead of time about any personalization we wanted incorporated into our tour. At the time of the message, my partner and I didn’t have anything in mind. The day of the tour comes, and during the tour we mention just minor things we wanted to see/do during the entirety of our Egypt trip. Amin and Mahmoud made the effort to fit these things into our tour. They are both amazing people, very accommodating, kind, and understanding. I would definitely try to book with them again.
