Egypte 9 dagen- Cairo Pyramids en Nile Cruise van Luxor naar Aswan en Abu Simbel

Egypt is a dream, it lived up to all our Indiana Jones inspired expectations. The tour company was very reliable, organized and responsive and we had a wonderful trip thanks to their hard work. If you’re lucky as we were, you will get Mohammed Wafa as your Egyptologist guide extraordinaire. He is a gem of a person he brought everything to life for us like no other.

We had first two days in Cairo, where we visited the pyramids in Giza, to Saqqara Step Pyramid, graves and Saqqara Temple, visited Memphis with statues of Ramses II, visited a Egyptian Perfume shop and a Papyrus shop. The hotel in Cairo was Safir hotel, an old 5-star hotel with good breakfast. Flew from Cairo to Luxor where we checked in on a 5-star Nile cruise boat. Visited the Karnak temple and the Luxor temple. Had a Luxor city tour in the evening with horse and cart. Next morning ng we went on a hot air balloon trip over Vally of the Kings. After that we visited Colossi of Memnon, temple of Hatshepsut and valley of the Kings where we saw mummy of Tutankhamon. On the cruise from Luxor to Aswan we stopped and visited Heros temple in Edfu and Com Ombo temple. In Aswan we visited the Abu Simbel temple, the Aswan High Dam, the Phile temple and a visit to a Nubian village. We flew back from Aswan to Cairo and had two days to see the Great Egyptian Museum (GEM), visit Old Cairo and relax before going home. Most of the entrance tickets were not included in the 9-day cruise package. This was very frustrating as we had to go online and book tickets every morning. Water and soft drinks were not included in the meals on the Nile cruise. Overall, a nice trip, but could have been a lot better with all these small expenses paid and covered in the package price.

Increíble, tour privado perfectamente organizado, siempre con la Srta.Aya pendiente de nosotros, para asesorarnos y ayudarnos en todo momento. Tanto el personal como los guías han sido espectaculares, pero querría destacar especialmente a nuestro guia en el Alto Egipto, Ahmed Al Azab. Un guía increíble, con un conocimiento absoluto de la historia Egipcia y con tanta pasión por ella que te la transmite en cada una de sus explicaciones. Este era el viaje de los sueños de mi mujer y Ahmed ha hecho que sea el mío también, así como despertar el deseo de volver y seguir descubriendo las maravillas de este país. Muchas gracias Ahmed y muchas gracias al resto del personal de la agencia, hasta el momento, el mejor viaje organizado que hemos tenido (y han sido muchos).
