Disappointed

Henry_S, Feb 2026
Good communications in advance, pickup was on-time. It was nice to talk with Omar about general Egyptian life. But there was almost no "guiding" on this trip for the various sights; we had to go into some churches on our own and google up our own information. The company also cut out one of the major Mosques vs. what had been written in the itinerary when we booked. We ended up back at our hotel much earlier than planned. Overall, I would recommend another tour/guide or just taking Uber to the sights (extremely cheap) and exploring on your own.

Great experience overall!...

Omar our guide, young boy graduated in languages, speaks Italian quite well and was with us very attentive and even in some cases protezione.Ci illustrated very well all the sites visited, and answered our domande.Ci accompanied us to the bazaar and then to the restaurant where we enjoyed koshari, the most famous dish in Egypt.Poi short tour in felucca to fini.Experience really advisable!!

Belle visite culturelle

Laura_B, Dec 2022
Super visite avec un excellent guide, Loaai, très avenant. On était ravie. Le guide ne parlait pas français (pas de guide français disponible pour cette visite) donc on a dû se débrouiller avec l'anglais. Il a parlé lentement et calmement avec un ton super apaisant qu'on en oublie pratiquement que c'est en anglais. Il a été très clair dans ses explications, vraiment top. Les visites en elles mêmes sont également très intéressantes et enrichissantes. Je recommande. On en apprend beaucoup et c'est plaisant. La navigation sur le Nil est sympa bien que sans plus value, ça reste un petit moment de détente après pas mal de marche.
