Bucket list checked beyond expectations
Visiting Egypt has been a dream of mine. The Egypt Unlimited Tours team did an excellent job from start to finish. Hussein, the airport envoy was a pro at picking us up and coordinating our logistics. Our Aswan-Luxor guide was Mohamed Mahmoud. He was so verbose in his knowledge of Egyptian history and was extremely passionate about it with his photos. His enthusiasm was contagious and he was so helpful and a gentleman. He is a great photographer too!
Our guide in Cairo, Seham, was also excellent. She was very knowledgeable and kind. Very personable and engaging! Because of her,I now have female Egyptian heroes.
Both guides were patient and helpful with my senior mom and aunt. Making sure they were comfortable and provided them rest when needed. They both treated us like friends and family.
Tips:
1. have lots of spare change to tip everyone including the drivers, the bellhops, etc.
2. Haggle when shopping. Things are extremely marked up especially for tourists
3. Great things to purchase: gold, silver, Alabaster products, onyx products, and essential oils. Be careful of counterfeit.
4. We missed the light show at the Giza pyramids. Book your trip on the days that it's showing so you don't miss it. It only shows 4x/week.
My only wish was i wish I booked the balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings.
Overall, loved the whole experience!!

Go visit Egypt!
Want to visit Egypt but are a little nervous? Egypt Unlimited Tours will make the trip a success from start to finish. Excellent hotels, safe food and water, comfortable travel, and all the ancient and modern sights on your list. Some days are longer than others, depending on what sights are nearby. There is time to relax and enjoy the sun and water, too. I learned so much and enjoyed the whole trip. A highly recommended adventure!

Safe, Knowledgeable and taken care of
Egypt Unlimited was awesome throughout this trip. Having people meet and guide you through the airport. To handling the stress of locating and bringing lost luggage from the airport. Dr. Mohamed is the best. Mr.Mohammed is an awesome tour guide and has a wealth of knowledge he lives to share. Felt safe and comfortable throughout my time in Egypt thanks to this amazing team and BBT their partner in setting up these once in lifetime experiences for teachers. 100% would recommend Egypt Unlimited and Bookbag Tours

Absolute Adventure With Incredible Guides
Each and every detail was so well thought out and taken care of. I felt almost carefree as they kept us informed of what was on itinerary, cared for each step of the trip from tickets to attractions to stops for shopping to making sure we had good and healthy food. Our Egyptologist, Mr Mohammed B, was so incredibly informative and knowledgeable. They always had answers to questions and foresight to think ahead to any issues that could possibly arise. This was an incredible adventure and I would recommend it to everyone!!!!

Great trip to Egypt
We had a trip to Egypt and a cruise down the Nile on our bucket list for a while and this proved to be a great way to see everything. Having the personal guides be there to arrange our pickup and all the small details as well as being very knowledgeable was a real plus. We got to see so much.

Put Egypt on your bucket list
Excellent tour of Egypt, highly recommended. From start to finish the guides and team took care of us sharing the wonderful knowledge of the Ancient Egyptian Civilisation. They say once you have tasted the water from the Nile, you will be back, yes, we will come back. Put Egypt on your bucket list

Extraordinary Egypt Adventure!!!
Fantastic Egypt 10 Days/8 Night Private Tour including Cairo, 4 Night Nile River Cruise Luxor to Aswan on the Sonesta Moon Goddess, and White Desert Camp to the El Bahariya Oasis and Farafra National Park. Mohammed organised a wonderful tour with professional, informative and friendly guides for each section of the tour. I was met at the airport for each flight and transported privately to hotels, an important aspect for a solo traveller. 10 Days was a perfect amount of time to get to know Egypt, learn about its history and experience many different aspects of its culture. It was an extraordinary experience made so
much the richer for the wonderful guides - Seeham in Cairo, Ahmed (Luxor to Aswan) and Magdi for the White Desert. Mohammed would regularly check in to see if I needed anything. The Nile Cruise was fabulous - wonderful accommodation, food, entertainment and service - and the countryside inspiring. A great way to travel and to see the temples along the Nile, all the way to Abu Simbel. Finally I highly recommend the desert safari for those who enjoy the outdoors and nature. It was mind blowing - a real 4WD adventure with our Bedouin hosts. Can’t recommend Egypt Unlimited highly enough.

This was a Great Private Tour
This is an excellent tour company. First, we had two guides one in Cairo(North) and one during the Nile Cruise(South) part of the tour between Aswan and Luxor. Both guides were wonderful. In particular, Mo, our guide in the South led us through all the Temples and Tombs. His knowledge of Ancient Egyption History and his ability to explain the details of the carvings and statues at each site is truly encyclopedic. Plus, he was very flexible and accomodating and fun. He also made sure that we were taken care of at each transition between boat, land, and plane. In fact, this company in general did a great job with logistics and put us up in really fine accomodations. Our tour guide in the North was equally knowledgable and organized. Touring with Egypt Unlimited Tours is a great way to see Egypt, a country wonderfully rich in history, but which can be a bit intimidating to the visitor. Also, this tour is truly Private in that it was just myself, wife, and guide, not a bus-load of people so we really received personalized treatment.
