We spent 10 days touring Egypt with Your Egypt Tours. From start to finish the entire trip was excellent. Ahmed met us at the airport and helped with every step. We spent a day in Cairo, Giza, Saqqara and Memphis with Mamdouh who provided great information. Then we flew to Aswan and met Mamdouah for a tour of the Aswan Dam, Abu Simbel and an added trip to a Nubian village by boat on the Nile. A night in the Old Cataract Hotel - outstanding. Then four nights on a Nile cruise Le Fayan and the temples of Philae, Kom Ombo, Edfu a night in Luxor at the Hilton and visits to the temples at Dendara and Abydos, (worth the extra journey, especially for Abydos), Valleys of the Kings and Queens, (Nefertari’s tomb is a must), with a balloon ride over them, Karnak and Luxor temples. Flight back to Cairo and Coptic and Muslim sights in Cairo as well as the bazaar and museum with Tutankhamun’s treasures. We learned so much about the history from both guides who were extremely knowledgeable and took care of every detail. Ahmed saw us back to the airport smoothly. The entire trip was arranged by Mrs Hamdy - who was extremely responsive and accommodated all of our our requirements. Our two guides were outstanding throughout and every driver we had was really good. Everyone at Your Egypt tours could not have been more dedicated or helpful. We couldn’t have done, seen or learned half of what we did without them. We highly recommend Your Egypt Tours for a terrific experience in Egypt from end to end.
