I arranged a tailor-made 21-day private guided tour package for my wife and myself with Look at Egypt Tours in June 2022.
And what an awesome trip it was!
All arrangements were perfect. We had the use of the best land transportation and hotels (with upgrades whenever possible). The Kempinski Nile, Park Regency Sharm and Steinberger Cecil Alexandria hotels deserve special mention as the most memorable places to stay.
Siwa Oasis as a destination was also most memorable- laid back and traditional; our guide (Mufassa- more on him below) made sure we tried the best local food upon our request. And we challenged him on that so we were able to try all the local specialties: oven baked beef, fried stuffed pigeon, fried liver and grilled lamb.
I would like to make special commendations to Mr Kandeel who assisted me in tailor-fitting our trip, Mahmoud- an especially amiable and elegant fellow- who greeted us upon our midnight arrival, at all airport and hotel transfers, and saw us through to departure.
Most special mention goes to Mufassa who was our guide in Cairo through to Alexandria and onto Siwa. Mufassa was a joy to be with. He made sure we were very happy with our trip. And of course our driver, Nasser who ably and safely navigated the long stretches of desolate highways on the 10hr road trip to Siwa (11hrs back to Cairo). Both were such pleasant company, were knowledgeable and appreciated good local food.
