Best Trip Ever, Hands Down
~GIZA Pyramids/Cairo~
It's not every day you get to be in amongst so much beautiful history. Our tour guide, Sayed (Bazooka) was absolutely incredible as well as our driver, Mustafa. We were picked up at 8am and from there we were taken straight to the Giza Pyramids. From the start and throughout the day, Sayed explicated to us so many minute details about ancient Egypt and the relics and wonders we saw. We had the opportunity for $23 extra dollars to go inside the Giza Pyramid which was well worth it. It was quite a climb and a bit hot, but being inside the room where such a prominent King from thousands of years ago lay was truly a wonder. From there, we spent $10 each to ride camels (Ships of the Desert) through the desert next to the Giza Pyramids. Throughout our time, Sayed took many many pictures of my friend and I making sure to get the best angles. We then went to the Sphinx and saw other relics around that area. After that we got to go to the Papyrus Museum and have an interactive tour there. Afterwards, we went to a perfumery where we got to sample many scents. Next, we were taken to a wonderful, delicious lunch that will go down as one of the best meals of this year (beef, rice chicken kebabs, eggplant, tomato, potatoes, baba ganoush, tzatziki, dates, and Turkish coffee). After, we got to visit the Cairo Museum. It was here that Sayed really walked us through individual pieces of arts and their significance. I appreciate his respectful and thorough manner in which he taught us about the history. Sayed went above and beyond for us. We needed sunblock too and he made sure we made an extra stop at the Pharmacy to get some. Overall, this was an incredible incredible life changing experience. It's not every day you get to see a wonder of the world. It was a very hot day and I appreciate his service to us.
My best friend and I came to Egypt for our annual girls trip. For this leg of the trip, we explored Aswan, Kom Ombo, Esna, and Luxor on a wonderful Nile Cruise. Amr, our guide throughout the entire tour, was extremely thorough in his explanations of the ancient hieroglyphics and relics. You could tell he is passionate about the preservation of history.
~ASWAN~
First, we were greeted by Amr, our brilliant tour guide. He greeted us warmly at the airport and we were taken via an air conditioned large van to see the High Dam and Aswan Dam. Amr described to us the importance of the High Dam to bring water to all parts of Egypt and it’s importance.
PThen, we took a small boat to the Temple of Philae. This temple was our first temple of the trip, we were able to go into the various rooms of the temple where Amr described their Greco-Roman influences. It was fascinating
~THE CRUISE EXPERIENCE~
Then, we were taken to our cruise the M/S Le Terrace, now it was an older cruise ship that partners mainly with a German company, so my friend and I were practically the only Americans. The food on the cruise was actually not very good at all, really bad to be quite honest. For what it was though, the cruise had everything we needed and more—a pool, a gym, bar/food service, photo services, etc. After talking to Amr, he explained that next time we can actually pick our specific cruise/hotels upon our preferences, so that was good to know. Everything on the cruise smelled a very odd smell that wasn’t very appealing, but then again I thought we would be on a cargo-like ship. My last words on the cruise, is that the employees were friendly and did their best to communicate and be as accommodating as possible, however, ultimately for me, it was just a vessel to get from point A to point B.
~Kom Ombo~
The next day after Aswan, we pretty much had a sailing day. We arrived at the Temple of Kom Ombo after 5pm. What made this temple fascinating was the importance of the Crocodile to the Ancient Egyptians and the intriguing Crocodile Museum. It was quite crowded around the temple at the time, so Amr made sure we saw the highlights but was respectful of our time to get through the crowds of people with a solid pace.
~Esna~
So, we were supposed to go to Edfu; however the city is having to reconstruct some of their roads, so we had the opportunity to see Esna, and this was one of my favorite locations on the trip. This location doesn’t get a lot of foot traffic from tourists, so it was nice to buy some water and snacks at the local market. Then, we walked down some stairs to the gorgeous temple. This temple was buried under sand and has most of the original coloring preserved. It was a treat!
~Luxor East Bank~ (Karnak and Luxor Temple)
On the same day we saw Esna, we sailed and saw The East Bank of Luxor in the afternoon. Seeing the temples and pyramids throughout the trip had been fascinating, but I was absolutely blown away by the grandeur of Karnak temple. Despite it being thousands of years old, many statues, obelisks, and gargantuan columns remain—with their color in tact. Luxor was similar in size but a smaller temple. There appeared to be a concert being set up in the middle of the Luxor temple for a concert later that night.
~Luxor West Bank (Valley of the Kings)~
We spend the night in the cruise docked at Luxor and the next morning we were picked up and disembarked the cruise. We were taken to the Valley of the Kings. First, Amr sat with us in the visitors center and told us the history of what we were going to see —tour guides aren’t allowed in some of the areas because the condensation from their breath can break down the paint in the tombs. My friend and I got to go into the Tombs of Ramses the I, IX and III. It was very warm inside the tombs and there was a man “giving out” cardboard to fan yourself, but beware, he adamantly expected a tip after. It was here at the Valley of the Kings where King Tut is buried; however it was an extra fee.
~Temple of Hatshepsut~
After the Valley of the Kings, Amr took us to a beautiful, authentic Alabaster shop where we got to buy precious minerals to take home as souvenirs. Then, we saw the Temple of Hatshepsut where you have to walk up 2 very long flights of stairs. She was the only woman to be buried in the Valley of the Kings so it was interesting to know more about her history. Lastly, we were taken to a gourmet lunch in Luxor where we were fed a gorgeous and delicious spread of kofta, rice, potatoes, tomatoes, tahín, mixed vegetables and more! Then, we were taken back in the van to the airport for our last night in Cairo.
~Amr, Our Guide~
Amr, our brilliant wonderful tour guide made us feel welcomed on day one. He possesses a deep knowledge of Egyptian history and it was very easy to understand his English. One day on the trip, my friend and I needed extra shampoo, conditioner, allergy medicine and lotion and Amr went out of his way and had it ready for us before dinner on the cruise. He not only led us on the tours of the temples, but he also joined us on the cruise to make sure we had everything we needed. He seemed to know everyone in every place and was all-around 5 stars—friendly, patient, respectful. He really went out of his way to make us feel safe in such a foreign country to us.
~The Weather~
We went the first week of October 2022 and the weather is quite hot, everywhere. However still be aware to dress accordingly with respect the Muslim custom. In Aswan, the temperatures got up to 102 and Luxor was about 98-100. The evenings were quite nice on board the cruise where we had nice breezes.
~Tipping~
Be prepared to tip everywhere and anywhere. It’s not explicitly said, but it’s strongly implied and sometimes strongly enforced. My friend and I brought $150 USD each that we converted to Egyptian Dollars. Make sure to have small bills too for drivers, people who carry your bags, etc. $150 total was enough for each of us to do adequate tipping and buy some souvenirs.

It was an amazing experience
We booked a tour from India and went to Aswan and from there we started our Nile cruise and saw the temples. It was an amazing experience. Then the cruise dropped us as Luxor and after the tour we left for Cairo there we went to the pyramids ,museum and the market. We also went to Alexandria for a day tour in totality it was a great experience more than the words can explain as we were travelling with a toddler we had our own difficulties but the tour was very well arranged.
We got a representative at every point . The tour guides were really good, well equipped with detailed information. We had Mohommad 'Super Mo'. Apart from the tour he was so thoughtful about our little one which really helped us enjoy more. He explained about the temples and the carving and if either of us were behind cause of our little one he waited to explain. Gave us time to click picture post he did the tour. So Super Mo is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Cairo cannot say much about the guide as he was more into getting the tour over with typer of guide.
Alexandria was beautiful and Rania our guide helped us explore it more. Even she is highly recommended.
NOW FOR THE CONS:
1. PLEASE DON'T FALL FOR WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT TIPPING- GIVE AS MUCH AS YOU WISH AND AS MUCH AS YOUR POCKET ALLOWS.
2. NO MATTER HOW MANY STORES YOUR GUIDE TAKES- YOU BELIEVE ME THEY ARE NOT THE LAST ONES .. BUT THEY ARE EXPENSIVE ONES. YOU CAN GET THE SAME STUFF(WHICH THEY WILL SAY YOU WONT BUT YOU WILL) IN THE LOCAL MARKET ESPECIALLY CAIRO MARKET.
FORGOT TO MENTION -CAIRO KHANE KHALIL BAZAAR IS A MUST. YOU WILL GET ALMOST EVERYTHING. DONT FORGET TO BARGAIN 🤣

Great experience
First time solo traveling and hiring a private tour with Egypt day tours was worth everything. Very organized and my experience was beyond expectations. All the tour guids spoke fluent English. They communicate everything with you. Traveled to Aswan and luxor with mohamed AKA SuperMo as a guide, he was very knowledgeable and was a great teacher as well. I was greeted by Osama at the airport and felt very well taken care of. Loay in cairo was also a great guide.

The absolutely right decision!
Organizing our trip with Egypt Day Tours was the absolutely right decision for us.
Before and during our trip, the team was an absolutely reliable, professional, professionally competent and humanly very enriching company.
There were three of us with our then 6-month-old daughter over 9 days and 8 nights in Egypt and booked our trip starting in Cairo via Egypt Day Tours over various stays along the Nile.
We were completely enthusiastic about the land of Egypt, its sight and highlights as well as all our stays, trips and the local people.
The booking process was professional, the preliminary planning clear and comprehensible.
All dates and appointments were always kept on time. We always had a personal contact person or an accompanying person with good to very good English skills, who was open for all questions and provided us with regular information. The venues, hotels and restaurants were well selected.
The tours and guided tours were tailored to our poor prior knowledge and we were able to learn an incredible amount and learn about the history of Egypt during this time.
We can only recommend Team Egypt Day Tours to anyone planning a similar trip with a clear conscience.

Actually *8 day, 7 nights. Cairo, Luxor, Aswan and Nile Cruise.
Egypt Day Tour gave us an "outstanding" job on our personal tour experience. From the moment we landed, to the day we flew back home to Fl.,USA. There guides were knowledgeable both in ancient history and present day Egypt. We selected what activities we wanted & they sent us a detailed day to day itinerary. Everything was covered in a timely basis. (small detail for those that normally don't tip much; it seems like u tip everbody- watch utube to get an idea on how much$ they don't ask but they do expect something. U don't want to end your trip shorting out on the last day) Covid truly hit them hard w/tourism. *Expect to see Cairo, a bit dirty and sandy. Always be respectful of there culture.
My husband & I give our many thanks to 😊 Ahemd, Osama tour rep's & Alli [our Spanish speaking guide] Great job!!
Now, Our trip itself; the Great Pyramids, Museum, 4 day Nile Cruise- Edfu-Kom Ombo Temples, High&low dam, Abu Simbel to name a few were "amazing". From our hot air balloon ride at sunrise in Luxor to dinner & tanoura show/belly dancing. Egyptian Temples and it's history. Enjoyed the🐫 camel ride, going inside the pyramids, horse cart ride to see the town's everyday life, sail/small boat rides to visit Temples sites. Visiting the tombs in the Valley of the Kings.
A trip to be remembered.

Fantastic experience
We did our first visit to Egypt with Egypt Day tours and I highly recommend them. The overall trip went very well from beginning to end. The tour guides were very knowledgeable especially Super Mo at Aswan and Luxor, ask for him when you go there. He is wonderful and so flexible and really took good care of us. Thank you Super Mo
