Left my heart in Aswan - My friends and I returned from a 9 day adventure in Egypt and it was nothing short of amazing. From start to finish, Ahmed ( our guide) perfectly organised everything and made Egypt even better with his dedication to detail which comforted me a lot ! His passion was admiring to see as he told us the rich history of Egypt. Visiting Aswan and going to the Nubian village was my favourite. If I ever visit Egypt again, I will 100% use Ahmed as a guide. The cruise itself was great and we felt very comfortable and safe. Places like Luxor Temple, Abu Simbel and going on a hot air balloon was lovely to experience. This trip was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure and I most definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to immerse themselves in culture and rich history.

An Outstanding Guide – Ahmed Made Our Trip Exceptional! - We had the pleasure of having Ahmed as our tour guide during our 9-day trip to Egypt, including the Nile cruise, and he truly made the experience unforgettable. His deep knowledge of Egypt's history, paired with his engaging storytelling, brought every site to life. Ahmed was not only informative but also incredibly attentive to our needs, ensuring we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. His passion for his country and its heritage was evident in every explanation, and he made even the most historic sites feel personal and fascinating. If you’re lucky enough to have Ahmed as your guide, you’re in for an amazing experience! Highly recommended!

Friends Holiday - I recently enjoyed a fantastic trip to Egypt and it was truly unforgettable! The organization was top-notch, and our guide Ahmed was exceptional—knowledgeable, engaging, and always eager to share fascinating stories about the history and culture of Egypt. The trip was a delight and the friendly staff made us feel at home.

First trip to Egypt - Our first experience to Egypt was such an amazing one! It was an excellent tour to capture all the beautiful sights in Egypt while also learning about the history behind them. All of our guides were fantastic, in particular Mohammad! He made sure to check in every step of the way & took insta worthy photos during the best sights!
