EPIC EGYPTIAN EXPERIENCE - Our trip to Egypt can be described in one word- EPIC. My husband and I booked our trip through Journey to Egypt based on amazing reviews and we quickly realized we made the best decision. From the moment we arrived to the Cairo airport, everything moved seamlessly and I cannot stress enough how safe we felt from beginning to end. We had someone waiting for us at baggage claim, and then another to transfer us to our hotel/get us checked it. No worries about a language barrier - our handler Muhammed, did everything for us! On our first full day in Cairo we were met by Alfred our tour guide. Right away, we felt completely comfortable with him. We loved his friendly demeanor and humor! Our first stop was the pyramids! Alfred’s historical knowledge was apparent and he answered any and every question we asked. He knew how to navigate through the crowds and exactly where to go to take the most epic photographs. After a stop at the Sphinx, we then made our way to lunch. One of our favorite parts of travel is trying all the authentic foods in each country. After telling Alfred this, he said he knew exactly where to take us (GAD) & helped order for us. After our meal my husband’s exact words were “best food we’ve ever eaten”. Alfred ordered an incredible spread of many different local dishes (including pigeon). Amazing! We ended the day with the Egyptian Museum and this made my history-buff heart so happy. Alfred highlighted some of the most important artifacts, as well as gave us ample time to wander. The next day we were off to Aswan to start our Nile cruise. Again, we were picked up from our hotel/dropped at the airport by Muhammed. Upon arriving at the airport we were picked up by another journey to Egypt handler. He took us to our Nile cruise ship (Princess Sarah) where we could check in and meet with our tour guide for the next 4 days, John. We really hit the jackpot with tour guides, like Alfred, John was equally amazing. Prompt, knowledgeable, and friendly. You could tell that John really cared about tailoring each day of tours to our interests. He was very communicative by explaining what to expect at difference sites. 10-15 minutes before each day’s tour we would meet to go over the layout of the day. We really appreciated this! With John we visited Aswan Dam & Philae Temple, a Nubian Village, Temple of Kom Ombo, Al Karnak, Luxor Temple, The Valley of the Kings & Temple of Queen Hatshepsut. Each site was stunning, but without John’s commentary and historical knowledge, it wouldn’t have been nearly as meaningful. We were left in awe of each different site and filled with the knowledge of its importance. After spending 4 days with John, it was like saying goodbye to a good friend. It’s also important to mention the 4 nights we spent on Nile Cruise ship Princess Sarah were fantastic. Housekeeping, dinning, bar, customer service - amazing! Upon returning to Cairo we had two more days of tours. We were so happy to find that Alfred would be our guide for those last two days. We spent time in Alexandria one day- which included The Library of Alexandria, catacombs & the most amazing seafood lunch. The second day we explored Cairo to the fullest - citadel, old Cairo, Saqqarah & another delicious lunch at a local restaurant. Again, Alfred was fantastic, and so was our driver! If you plan on visiting this spectacular country, there’s only one way to do it -> with Journey to Egypt. Their team made every part of our trip flow smoothly. We felt safe, comfortable and cared for at all times. And I cannot recommend our tour guides enough. Alfred and John made our trip the most memorable. Be sure to request them, if possible!

Amazing experience, great organisation and superb guides. A superb holiday. - Journey to Egypt have been amazing! We actually booked a 9 day Cairo, Luxor and Aswan tour with Journey to Egypt, but had some specific additions which they were happy to weave into the itinerary. The package they offered was exceptional in every way. We are 2 female friends in their mid 60s who left their husbands at home and came on an adventure! All our concerns were groundless. We were met at the airport and chaperoned through customs! Transferred to the hotel with a guide and driver, even though it was 11.30 at night! Our hotel, the Zamalek residences was great, in a neighbourhoud where we felt very safe. Communications about pick up times etc were always clear and everyone was very punctual. The drivers were incredible... they need to be in Cairo traffic! Our guide in Cairo was Mayer and he was really excellent. An egyptologist, he had so much information to share with us and kept both days interesting and fun. The included lunches were in super local restaurants. Then, a flight to Luxor and 4 days on a Nile Cruise to Aswan. John, our second fantastic guide, met us at the airport and was with us for the 4 days. He was superb as well. Again, so much information, explained in a clear way. All our interests and questions were accommodated, and we felt both guides, and the company were genuinely wanting us to have a great experience in Egypt. They certainly succeeded. We absolutely loved every place we visited and experience we had. Most importantly, we felt completely safe, and we also knew there was somebody on hand who could sort out any problems. Egypt is not directly impacted by the situation in the Middle East at the moment. We would 100% recommend it as a holiday destination, and if you have any concerns, then we would recommend Journey to Egypt as a way to discover this wonderful place. From my first email, Osama the owner was so helpful, and helped us tailor make our own package. Our excursions were just us and the guide, and when we saw the big tour groups we knew we were getting so much more out of the trip. Also, using a local company means the money goes directly to people in the country we are visiting. Local prices were very reasonable, and yes there is a tipping culture, but even being generous they are a small percentage of the cost of your holiday, and many people depend on the tips. We were sad to leave Egypt and the many friendly people we met.. Thank you so much for making our Egypt dream a reality.

Incredible Cairo and Nile Cruise Tour! - We had the most amazing trip with Journey to Egypt!! Even before booking, I had exceptional customer service from Osama who helped tailor the standard 7 day tour to add an extra day in Cairo at our request - he was very responsive and the booking process was super easy - thank you Osama for putting this incredible trip together for us! From the moment we arrived in Cairo we were looked after, and every step of our journey had been meticulously organised. We didn’t have to worry about anything and it felt extremely safe. Our tour guides Mayer and John were so knowledgable and brought the temples and tombs and history to life with their stories and passion. They were very considerate of what we wanted to see and weren’t ever pushy. John also always made sure we had enough water and snacks which is always appreciated! The Nile Cruise on the Movenpick Royal Lily was bliss, clean, and comfortable. We loved the tour of the boat to see behind the scenes where we met the captain and had a cooking demo in the kitchen! The buffet meals were always varied, with themed nights, something for everyone - we piled our plates high every night! We really couldn’t fault our experience with Journey to Egypt and would recommend to anyone :)

Incredible Experience with Journey to Egypt! - From the moment we arrived at the airport in Cairo, the team took care of every detail seamlessly, ensuring we felt safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout the entire trip. The itinerary was perfectly planned, covering all iconic sites—Giza Pyramids, Egyptian Museum, Abu Simbel, Luxor, Aswan, and more—with thoughtful customization based on our requests. Osama worked closely with us during the booking process, responding promptly to every question and customizing the tour to our needs. Our guides were phenomenal. Mayer, our guide in Giza and Cairo, was exceptional—his storytelling, passion, and warmth made exploring the city's historical treasures an absolute joy. John, our guide in Aswan and Luxor, was a wealth of knowledge guiding us through the temples along the Nile, seamless coordination with the Nile cruise and hot air balloon excursion, and making every moment engaging and educational. The accommodations were wonderful, including an upgraded suite with pyramid view in Giza. The guides went above and beyond to fulfill requests, whether it was ensuring we had extra water available or visiting specific sites and shops. Journey to Egypt's thorough planning, wonderful accommodations, and fantastic guides ensured a safe, personalized, and unforgettable experience.

Fabulous trip! - Fantastic trip from start to finish from the moment we landed in Cairo until we checked in for our return flight. So well organised and nothing too much trouble for Osama and his team. Having our own guides was a big plus. They were both very attentive and the knowledge that Mayer and George had was amazing. The Nile cruise boat although fairly dated was comfortable enough. The housekeeping and customer service teams were efficient and friendly. The food on board was really good and was a mixture of international and Egyptian food. I can highly recommend

Trip to Cairo, Aswan and Luxor - We had an amazing visit. Journey to Egypt organized and performed above expectations. They were also very flexible to our needs and requirements. I would give them the highest marks. I have to say that the hotel in Giza, Steigenberger, though perfectly located for visits to the pyramids, fell a bit below expectations.

5 Star trip to Egypt - Journey To Egypt is a well managed tour company. My recent experience has been excellent. Tour guides Mena and Meyer have done a good job. Their boss Osama is very prompt in communication. I would book with them again and recommend to anyone planning a trip to Egypt. H. Baddela Maryland, USA.

Excellent tour company and trip - I planned this family trip to Egypt last August and wondered if travel to Egypt was still safe given the events in Gaza. After research I decided that Egypt is still a safe place to travel in and my trip there confirmed it. My family and I felt 100% safe at all times during our trip and Journey to Egypt provided 5* service at all times. I can't imagine making this trip without them. All of my pre-trip communication was answered promptly and every detail taken care of professionally. We were greeted at the airport as promised and Journey to Egypt's wonderful staff took care of us, our bags, transportation and sightseeing throughout our trip. Our guides were very knowledgeable and accommodated all of our requests regarding additional sights we wanted to visits, start times and shopping stops. They provided us with cold water for every excursion and we traveled in a new, clean, comfortable van with excellent drivers. The Nile cruise boat was very clean and comfortable and the Cairo hotel overlooked the pyramids witha beautiful view from our balcony and was 5*.i highly recommend booking your Egypt trip with Journey to Egypt.

Great family journey in Egypt - We booked our trip with Journey to Egypt after a friend had reccomended it to me; Total of 12 days in Egypt, from Cairo to Aswan, Abu Simbel, 3 nights on the boat, Luxor, to finish with a relaxing time in Hurghada. Daddy with his 2 favorite travellers (11 and 13) First, the logistic was perfect. From arrival in Cairo, every transfer from one location in private mini-van, side activities like Hot air Balloon, helping us finding local restaurants, helping us negotiate in the souks, the team at Journey to Egypt is really going the extra mile to make it a memorable trip. They stay connected through Watsapp daily to make sure everything is perfect. But what really made this trip exceptional- and it really was - were the 2 guides that helped us navigating through the sites, temples, telling us the history in a perfect English. Kudos to John that made our visits around Aswan, Abu Simbel and Luxor a great adventure. Answering our hundreds of questions, he was of great company and I highly recommend him! We learned so much!! And visiting Cairo and the pyramids would not have been the same without without our guide Mayer. His energy, his smile, his enthusiasm made visiting these wonders of the world an unforgettable experience. Thanks to the whole team at Journey to Egypt. Myself and my kids cannot be happier about these amazing vacations. John and Mayer, you will remain part of our memories when remembering all the great places you made us discover
