Unforgettable Sunset Felucca Ride on the Nile with Ahmed! - We had an absolutely amazing experience during our sunset felucca ride on the Nile with Ahmed! The view of the sun setting over Cairo from the river was breathtaking, and the atmosphere was peaceful and magical. Ahmed was a fantastic guide – kind, knowledgeable, and professional. He made sure everything went smoothly and told us interesting stories about the Nile and Egyptian history. His warm hospitality made the experience even more special. It was a perfect way to relax and enjoy the beauty of Egypt. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Cairo – don’t miss this wonderful experience with Ahmed!

Wonderful sunset cruise on the Nile - Ahmed was great and informative about Cairo and other places of interest in Egypt. We arrived in time to catch the sunset while sailing on the Nile. It was just cooling off from 99F, and he provided pineapple malt beverages and bottled water to stay hydrated. As avid travelers we always love to experience a city from the water, as it gives a different perspective. Seamless experience from beginning to end!

Family Fun in the Fayoum Oasis with Dina - Dina organized a wonderful day in Fayoum. We went sandboarding, visited Wadi El Rayan waterfalls, and had a homemade lunch—grilled meat, rice, and salad. The kids loved it, and so did we!

Relaxing Nile Cruise and Great Food - Our guide Salma was amazing during our Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan. We visited temples every day, then enjoyed relaxing evenings on the deck. The Egyptian buffet onboard was tasty—especially the molokhia and roasted chicken!

Day 1 – Arrival and Light Show - We arrived in Egypt and were so excited to start our trip. After some rest, we went to the Sound and Light Show at the Pyramids. It was amazing to see the Pyramids lit up at night while hearing the story of ancient Egypt. After that, we had dinner at a lovely local restaurant — the food was delicious and the staff were very kind. A perfect first day!

I booked sunset sailing... - I booked sunset sailing with this company and a ride to the airport. I was impressed with their business ethic and professionalism. Even I was the only one booked the sailing that day, they didn't cancel the sailing and the sailing included free pickup and drop off! The drivers were on time.

A Day in Saqqara and Memphis - I had a great day exploring Saqqara and Memphis. Seeing the Step Pyramid was really exciting—it’s the oldest pyramid in Egypt! I also enjoyed walking around the open-air museum in Memphis and standing beside the huge statue of Ramses II. The guide explained everything clearly, and I learned a lot.
