8-Day Private Tour Cairo, Aswan, Luxor and Nile Cruise Including Air Fare

Our guide Ahmed was quite socially awkward, he didn't take them to connect with us and I felt that he was in my personal space quite a bit. There's a It was well organized but we didn't know what was happening often until a few hours before. The ship was great and we were pleasantly surprised to find out we were on a private tour rather than a public one. All the transportation was excellent and I really enjoyed all of the sub contractors who took us on activities. They were much more personable and easier to connect with then Ahmed. Good range of activities ????

We spent eight unforgettable days in Egypt with our exceptional guide, Hassan, traveling through Luxor, the Valley of the Kings, a Nile River cruise, Aswan, Abu Simbel, and Cairo, including the Egyptian Museum, the Pyramids of Giza, and more. It was the trip of a lifetime — made extraordinary by Hassan’s knowledge, care, and attention to detail. From the start, we knew we were in great hands. Hassan’s English is near-native — clear, natural, and easy to understand (even my husband, who sometimes struggles with accents, had no problem at all). His calm, radio-quality voice and great sense of humor made every day enjoyable. Hassan didn’t just guide us — he traveled with us on our domestic flights and stayed with us on the Nile cruise boat, so everything ran smoothly. Each day, he added thoughtful touches to improve our experience and efficiency. One perfect example: he suggested we take the hot air balloon ride in Luxor on our first morning, just in case weather canceled it — giving us a second chance the next day if needed. His foresight helped us avoid long lines and crowds, maximizing what we were able to see each day. As an expert Egyptologist, Hassan brought Egypt’s ancient history to life, reading hieroglyphics, explaining symbolism, and revealing fascinating details that made every temple and tomb meaningful. He also helped us navigate the local culture with kindness and respect — giving us guidance on tipping, fair shopping prices, authentic Egyptian goods, and introducing us to great local food like koshari. I felt Hassan genuinely cared about our comfort and safety. He was always checking in, offering practical tips, and making sure we felt completely at ease. When my husband had stomach troubles, Hassan quickly found the right medicine and had it for us in under an hour. Always upbeat, approachable, and quick to laugh, Hassan made us feel like we were traveling with a knowledgeable friend rather than just a guide.

We had an excellent tour in Egypt! Our guide, Ahmed Gomaa was very knowledgeable and made the experience very enriching and enjoyable. He was an expert in hieroglyphics but also shared with us about modern Egyptian culture. The tour was well coordinated with excellent drivers, great accomodations, and good pacing of the sites we saw. Everything was prearranged but we had flexibility to do some side excursion we were interested in. I would highly recommend Egypt Unlimited Tours as well as Mr. Gomaa, our guide.
