Amazing Egypt Tour
From the moment Hussain met us at the airport, we felt well cared for. He was an efficient and unobtrusive facilitator. In Aswan, Ahmed and his team were flexible and responsive, adapting the itinerary to suit our needs. Any issues on the cruise were promptly resolved. The highlight of the trip in Luxor was hotair balloon over the valley of the Kings at sunrise. We gained valuable historical insights about the temples and Pharaohs. Haris, our guide in Cairo, was excellent and professional. I would gladly recommend Egypt Unlimited Tours to friends and family.

Awesome Experience
Our experience with Egypt Unlimited Tours was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we arrived until our departure, everything was seamless and perfectly organized by Mohamed Mostafa. Everything exceeded our expectations.
Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by Hussein, who guided us effortlessly through customs and security before transporting us safely to our hotel. His presence instantly set the tone for a stress free trip.
Day 1 – Our journey began in Cairo with the incredible guidance of Mohamed Badawy. From the very first moment, Mohamed made us feel welcomed, comfortable, and excited for the adventure ahead. That day, we explored the Giza Pyramids, enjoyed a camel ride, visited the Temple of the Sphinx, toured the Saqqara pyramids and ended the evening with the sound and light show at the pyramids.
Day 2 – We flew to Luxor, toured the magnificent Karnak Temple, checked into our river cruise, and later returned to see Karnak beautifully illuminated at night.
Day 3 – The day started early with a breathtaking hot air balloon ride at sunrise. We had to take a boat ride and shuttle transfer to the launch site. Afterward, we visited the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut and King Tut’s tomb, before sailing to Edfu via Esna to experience the fascinating river locks.
Day 4 – We visited the Temple of Horus, then continued to Kom Ombo to see the Temple of Sobek and Haroeris, before sailing overnight to Aswan.
Day 5 – Our highlights in Aswan included a visit to the Aga Khan Mausoleum, the Nubian Village and a serene sunset sail on a felucca.
Day 6 – We disembarked the cruise and explored the High Dam, the Temple of Philae and a traditional aromatherapy oil house before flying back to Cairo where we stayed at the Sheraton.
Day 7 – In Cairo, we explored the Egyptian Museum, the Alabaster Mosque of Muhammad Ali, the historic Coptic Church, the centuries-old Ben Ezra Synagogue and the beautiful Al-Azhar Park. Mohamed ended the day by taking us to a stunning restaurant, Sky Rim, perched on a small cliff with breathtaking views of the city. The food and service was excellent. It was the perfect way to close our excursions with him. That evening, Hassan accompanied us on a dinner cruise on the Nile with entertainment which was a delightful finale.
On our final day, Hussein once again ensured a smooth and hassle free airport transfer.
Although the itinerary may look busy, Mohamed Badawy was always flexible and accommodating to our pace and interests. It felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring with a friend/family who happens to know everything about the area. From the itinerary design, to the hotels, to the cruise, to the drivers, our wonderful guide and liaisons—everything was handled with the utmost care and professionalism.
This was truly one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had. A heartfelt thank you to everyone at Egypt Unlimited Tours for making our journey so memorable and for keeping us safe throughout.

Overall Good with mixed rating
I’ve put a lot of thought in my review as I needed to be fair and true so others can benefit from my experience - I gave 4 stars total to be fair to the good parts, details rating for each part below:
Starting with the positives the organisation of picking up from airport and transport was spot on Hessen in Cairo and Mohamed in Aswan were great super friendly and communicated very well
Our guide in Aswan and Luxor Ahmed was very good, super chilled, relaxed and gave us our space to explore and was very welcoming to any questions we had, he communicated very and was not pushy when he suggested to tweak the itinerary so it would be more comfortable for my mom.
The highlight for me was the Nile cruise ( ms Medea) the staff was amazing and super friendly, I loved their hospitality and enjoyed their company - so all the above I’ll rate 5 stars
The other parts were unfortunately not great, the 5 stars Sheraton hotel obviously provide a budget deal for the tour booking the treatment wasn’t great and we got given very outdated room, upon checking we got one of the workers rush into the room after 10 mins of being in the room to empty the mini bar and when I asked he said reception told him, after calling reception and being transferred to 5 different ppl claiming I asked for the bar content to be removed they told me it’s because there was no deposit on the room. Communication was so bad and staff are rude and that unfortunately retracted so much of the experience - for the hotel I rate 2 stars as that’s no way to treat guests.
As for the tours in Cairo the tour was alright obviously when meeting the great pyramids and all the history u can ignore the inconveniences
I asked the office to replace last day with Alexandria trip (with extra cost of course ) which was great but unfortunately that was probably the most uncomfortable I felt in a tour, it turned out the office miss communicated the itinerary with the guide or at least what we got told (same guide for Cairo trip) and he took it personally when I asked about the itinerary and made me super uncomfortable, even though he tried to fix things after he kept pushing and he would not drop it, that attitude unfortunately was very disappointing and unnecessary stress that I didn’t need so I guess as a take away always check with guide at the start of the day that u r seeing what u r expecting and if not ask for your rights - so for those two parts I score 3 stars

We raden u ten zeerste aan om bij dit professionele en gerenommeerde bedrijf te boeken
Onze tour was goed georganiseerd om de beste bezienswaardigheden te zien met geen tijdverlies als gevolg van een uitstekende planning door Mohamed Mostafa. Onze correspondentie per e-mail was gemakkelijk en punctueel. Het was een prive-tour voor slechts 2 van ons die ik kan sterk aanbevelen, vooral in de hitte van augustus. Van luchthaven assist tot privé vervoer met airconditioning, die altijd op tijd was, we voelden ons veilig. Onze gids die bij ons bleef tijdens de tour was geweldig! Enorm veel dank aan Hassan Shazly die ons altijd heeft geïnformeerd, ons met zorg heeft behandeld en ons zoveel heeft geleerd over de geschiedenis van Egypte. Hij was uitstekend. Onze hotelaccommodatie in Caïro was spectaculair en onze Nijlcruise zeer luxe. We raden aan om bij Egypt Unlimited Tours te boeken, omdat ze lokaal zijn en zeer ervaren. Egypte is geen land om alleen te navigeren! De tijd doorgebracht in elk van de locaties was perfect en elke plaats bood verschillende historische bezienswaardigheden en ervaringen. De Vallei der Koningen is werkelijk indrukwekkend en de Heteluchtballonvaart is de vroege ochtendstart zeker waard.

50th Birthday Extravaganza in Egypt!!
For my 50th birthday, we booked with Egypt Unlimited Tours, and the entire experience was nothing short of amazing. Once we landed at Cairo Airport, we were meet by the tour company’s representative, Hussian, as we departed the plane, making our transfer effortless. He greeted us with a sign and a smile, not sure how he recognized us before we made it down the escalator😅, but his assistance through customs was quick and very much appreciated, getting us on our way without a hitch even at 2am in the morning.
The highlight of our trip was truly Ahmed Mahmoud. His expertise as an Egyptologist, paired with his warm personality and vast knowledge made us feel comfortable and home away from home. He didn’t just show us Egypt, he brought its rich history and culture to life in the most personal and memorable way. With the personal touch, we couldn’t imagine experiencing Egypt without him. From seamless airport transfers from Cario to Luxor, to ensuring we had packed breakfasts on early tour days, to conversations at the local coffee shop, every moment was thoughtfully planned.
If you’re considering a trip to Egypt, Egypt Unlimited Tours and Ahmed are absolutely the way to go. This was the best 50th birthday gift I could have ever been given! Cheers to 50 years!!! ️

This is the gold standard for VIP travel experience in Egypt
This tour fulfilled its promised and more! I am so glad we booked this tour with Unlimited Egypt Tour. Mohamed is responsive and professional. The logistics exceeds our expectation. From airport transfer staff, experienced tour guide, cruise staff members to our drivers, we were taken care when is needed yet, the guides also know when to leave us alone to explore on our own. Reem was our Égyptologue guide in Cairo and Mostafa was our guide in Aswan and Luxor. They were professional and knowledgeable. Mostafa helped us navigate the tipping. Because we visited during the very hot summer month, Mostafa would make sure we are in shade as much as possible while giving us the explanation. He also told us when it is necessary to tip and when it is not. They would adjust our visit based on our preference. The tour includes everything besides drinks tips and personal shopping. The internal airfare was upgradeable fare because I have Star Alliance Gold status, we got upgraded to business when we returned back to Cairo. The mini van they used for transportation were new, clean and modern (USB C port for charging). The 5 star hotels in Cairo are part of Marriott and I get to leverage my Marriott Bonvoy status to get better room. The cruise part of the trip was equally awesome. The cruise ship was one of the best ones we saw, we even got our own balcony. The cruise staff were friendly and welcoming. They will try their best to address our request. All in All, this tour made our first time visiting Egypt Worries free and hassle free. Thank you for this awesome trip!

Wow! De reis van mijn leven 💕
Mijn eerste gedachten om te delen zijn over hoe goed deze reis was. Vanaf het moment dat ik landde tot het moment dat ik vertrok voelde ik me goed verzorgd. Als iemand die meestal alle planning doet, was het een broodnodige verlichting van stress om te weten dat alles voor mij was geregeld. Vanuit de accommodaties, in Egypte vlucht, de meeste restaurants / maaltijden, en het plan van elke dag. Het was duidelijk dat kwaliteit en veiligheid een prioriteit waren.
Het hebben van een deskundige gids zoals Mohamed Badawy maakte de reis veel meer kwaliteit en plezier. Hij deelde zoveel kennis en beantwoordde veel vragen, niet alleen over de geschiedenis, maar ook over de cultuur. Ook, schreeuw naar Mohamed Mostafa - ik waardeerde echt de tijd en duidelijke professionaliteit die in deze reis werd gestoken. Goed gedaan! 👌🏽

Amazing private tour in Egypt
This trip was AMAZING!! Egypt unlimited took care of us from the minute we arrived until we were back on the plane home. The service and responsiveness was the best we have experienced. We had two main guides, Diaa in Aswan and on the Nile and Radwa in Cairo. Both were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and truly made our experience special. If you are on the fence about booking this trip we can't recommend this company enough.

A Most Excellent Ancient Egyptian Adventure
I recently returned home from an amazing trip to Egypt with Egypt Unlimited. It was an incredible experience. Our accommodations were top tier. The food at every restaurant was fantastic. Dr. Mohamed Badawy is wealth of knowledge. I felt incredibly blessed to have him as our guide. All throughout the journey I felt safe and taken care of. I learned so much about Egypt from this experience and had so much fun knocking things off my bucket list. I 100% would recommend!!!
