Embodying the ancient and modern life out loud
Thank you so much, Mohammed, for creating a safe, comfortable, and fun-filled itinerary. Your presence, Harras's presence, and the knowledge shared throughout my journey of Egypt's history, temples, and culture were absolutely an interactive educational experience. It was also a nice touch to be received at the airport and personally dropped off by your staff. You and your team handled all the moving parts—the beautiful hotels, planes, buses, boats, cruise, and my vegetarian menu—with ease and grace. My only regret was not bringing an empty checked bag for all the goodies I purchased and wanted to purchase. LOL. I am absolutely grateful for an amazing first-time experience on the continent and region! Next time, I will bring my family! Blessings to you all, Naeomi M. Redondo Beach, CA, USA.

A Seamless Tour of the Highlights of Egypt
We were in good hands from start to finish. Being greeted at airports and hotels with excellent drivers taking us everywhere we needed to go. Our two guides (Egyptologists) were so knowledgeable and personable. They made every effort to ensure that all the experiences were to our liking.

10 day Egyptian trip.
Muhammad answered all of our pre travel questions promptly and arranged for all of our last minute changes. We were met at the airport at all of our destinations both arriving and departing. In Cairo our driver Mustafa was great, how he managed to navigate Cairo traffic so smoothly was amazing. Our Guide in Cairo (Reem al ta Wil) was beyond amazing, she knew so much about ancient and modern Egypt and answered all of our questions. You could tell that she loves her country and history very much. If we had a request that was off of our schedule she made it happen or talked to Muhammad and they made it happen. From Aswan to Luxor our guide was Sayed who also was amazing, he recommended some stops that we enjoyed and if you needed coffee he knew the best places. The hotels and accommodations were first rate and we were helped checking in each time.

8 day tour totally worth it !
-Tour Itinerary 4/5
Good mix of activities and down time
Our guides ( Rania and Salama) were both happy to accommodate any adjustments to our plans and proactive in offering additional and alternative activities. The extra stops at the papyrus store and perfume and oil makers were nice.
Morning activity times would be good to specify, as some of these were 4am wake ups which affects the energy levels available through the day.
Before setting sail on the cruise we had an excursion to a Nubian village, very scenic and peaceful, a really nice beach spot and very lovely to do privately as a couple.
The cruise itself is a very relaxing and beautiful journey along the Nile and provides a lot of time to relax in between touring temples.
There was a loss of most of a day due to the delays at the Esna lock. Although this is not in the control of the tour company, it was slightly frustrating to not know this until the day and meant we got up earlier the next day to include all visits and were more rushed. On this day the itinerary included an early morning excursion which we happily switched out for an additional tomb visit at the valley of the kings.
Ultimately the tour covers all the major sights to see, we definitely had our fill of ancient temples, pyramids and tombs!
-Transportation 5/5
Great service, felt very safe and looked after in private air conned vans where ever we went
Despite early domestic flight everything was arranged for us including packed breakfast and Even managed to fly business class which was nice touch (arranged by Hussain airport liaison in Cairo with no additional cost)
Accomodation 4/5
Cairo 5* (Sheraton) was lovely, central and great views right by the Nile. Many different restaurant options open late which was useful when we had early/late transfers. There is a nightclub downstairs which might be great for some travellers, I was happy not to hear this from our room though.
Cruise quality overall was about 3/5 especially when compared to the quality of the other stays. Most staff were friendly, room had a leak but was quickly addressed. WIFI on cruise was available but very overpriced and was only useable in the foyer. Recommend prearranging sim and relying on this for connectivity.
2nd Cairo hotel (Le meridian) was functional as an airport hotel without feeling like the airport was right next door. Amazing beds, room service and bathroom. We didn’t get a chance to use the pool but it was large and had deep sections
-Guides 5/5
We had Rania in Cairo and Salama for our Aswan-Luxor leg and both were incredible guides, giving us private tours and taking the time when we were more interested in seeing certain things. Salama made sure to give us lots of other optional excursions to make sure we weren’t missing out whilst prioritising our comfort and ease. Both were excellently knowledgeable and passionate about the culture and history of Egypt.

First Class Service and Itinerary.
Wow, wow, wow. Amazing trip. We have always been taught that if something sounds too good to be true, to avoid it. Not this time!!! We read the amazing reviews for Egypt Ultimate Tours and worried they could not be that incredible. Well, they exceeded ALL expectations. Very professional team. Always prompt and courteous. Private tour is literally private tour. Our own vehicles, our own guides, made any adjustments needed. Mohamed and team were first class. You won’t be disappointed. We will make sure all of our friends and family know about this great tour company. I have never dared go on a hot air balloon before and it was so safe and beautiful. Don’t miss Abu Simbel!!! Cruise, pyramids, museums, sphinx, everything!!! Such a professional team. Maram, Mokmud, Hussein, Noor, Hani, Ahmed etc. Everyone was amazing!!! Thank you for making our Egypt trip absolutely perfect. Hope to see you all again next trip!!!

Great Tour with Egypt Unlimited
We had a great experience with Egypt Unlimited Tours. Mohammed the owner of the company took care of all the details and was extremely responsive to our inquiries. From the moment we were picked up from Cairo airport to the time we were dropped back for our flight back home, Mohammed and his team provided personalized service to us and facilitated us perfectly. We did not have to worry about airport transfers or airline tickets etc. Mohamed also upgraded our hotel stay from Remeses to Sheraton which was fantastic. All our guides were Egyptologist. They were extremely knowledgeable, kind and considerate. Our guide Shaymaa in Cairo was amazing. Very knowledgeable and with great communication skills, she was a pleasure to be around. Our guide Azzaaz on the cruise from Aswan to Luxor was very kind and knowledgeable and was with us constantly guiding us and taking care of all our needs.
After the 8 day tour ended we also took a private overnight tour to Alexandria with Egypt Unlimited Tours. Our guide Eslam and our driver Mohammad were wonderful. Our stay was in a fantastic hotel/resort with great location overlooking the mediterranean ocean.
Unfortunately my husband got sick in Alexandria and was having difficulty handling the excursions. Both our guide and driver were extremely kind and considerate and rearranged our excursions at a slow and easy pace so that we were able to enjoy the beautiful city of Alexandria despite my husband’s illness.
My husband and I are Senior Citizens and health issues are a major concern during our travels. It was comforting for us to know that in case of health issues we could refer to Mohammad and his team for guidance and help in obtaining medical assistance.
I cannot thank Mohammed, our tour operator and his team, enough for the fabulous service we got during our trip. We definitely recommend this tour company to all.

Good/very good overall with possible improvements
Great experience overall.
Positives :
*Very well looked after by the local tour company staff with excellent meet & greet, transfers etc...
* Personal guides for us on all visits including the cruise, which allows for some flexibility on schedule and all, which is not possible in a group. Excellent quality guides speaking perfect english and very knowledgeable
* Stay at Sheraton in Cairo was great
* We got to visit (almost) all main sites and had an enjoyable boat experience ( good food, nice sceneries,..)
Negative/possible improvement
* Pick up for the flight from Cairo to Aswan was at 3:30am which was very early and not warranted - we traveled business class however so thanks for that "compensation"
* the cruise schedule could be improved : we stayed 24h+ in Aswan when we could have sailed earlier and from there everything was in a rush. We skipped the visit of Edfu as it was scheduled at 5 am. That early schedule was meant so as to arrive early at Esna lock. We ended up spending the whole day at the lock due to the huge traffic and missed the visits we had scheduled at Luxor that day. We ended up not being able to visit the Luxor temple

Get a private tour with guide.
Highly recommend a private tour with egyptologist guide to understand what is really meant visiting this ancient sites. All your questions will be answered by a professional. Mostafa was our guide for 4 days Nile river cruise. He had great knowledge about the Egypt ancient history. Wherever he took us, we learned a lot of history. After he went through histories, he asked how long we like to have our own time to walk through and take pictures. When we ask how long we have. His answer is always up to you. He is pretty much flexible. In addition, he always stop by and purchase cold water bottles. He made our trips very memorable. Plus, he also took a lot of photos of us.

Great Egypt Trip
Viator was very responsive to inquiries during and after the booking. They helped with schedule changes and got us the upgrade that we requested. The local company, Egypt Unlimited, was very good. They had representative meeting us at airports and helped with visa and immigration. Hotels were 5-star as requested. Local guides were very polite, courteous, knowledgeable and very accommodating. Especially when I requested wheel chair due to my physical condition. All in all a wonderful experiences. Will highly recommend to friends. Only thing was some very early departure schedule, which couldn't be help due to river cruise time table.
