Egypt is a country that has truly stolen my heart. With its incredibly rich history and breathtaking landscapes, it's a destination that I would love to revisit. Our tour directors, particularly , were exceptional - their knowledge and professionalism made the experience even more enjoyable. I was impressed by unique approach, using a notebook to illustrate key points, earning him the nickname "the professor." The Nile cruise was a highlight of the trip, with friendly staff and crew members, delicious food, and lovely afternoon tea and lunch on the deck. The Wonders of Egypt trip was truly unforgettable!
Brandon L. | Traveled in December
A great trip! The core destinations plus the optional add-on destinations provided a diverse view of what Egypt has to offer. And, of course, the whole experience wouldn't have been nearly as good were it not for our exceptional trip manager, with his enthusiasm and impressive knowledge.

An excellent trip that covered all the 'must sees' in Egypt. The Nile cruise was a perfect way to spend a few days with a good mix of exploration and relaxation. Brilliant tour guide who was knowledgeable and made facts interesting and digestible. Have already recommended this trip to friends.
Hoi C. | Traveled in December
was an excellent trip manager! He was very enthusiastic and passionate about explaining the egyptian history. My favourite part of the trip is definitely the Pyramids! Ticked off on my bucket list! But also the cruise along the Nile was also incredible, we were spoilt with 3 days of buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner. The Red Sea cruise experience was also the highlight, snorkelling the salty Red Sea was so fun. Massive shoutout to who looked after us in this entire trip, some of us left our phones and passports by accident, and he managed to help us resolve it. was like a father to us, which must have been exhausting for him to look after a bunch of 18-35 year old kidults!! I overall enjoy this trip as much as first Contiki experience, have met lots of friends as an introvert on this trip, and I would likely join more Contikis in the future!
Rachael | Traveled in December
Great trip led by a wonderful leader who was extremely knowledgeable and patient. It is action packed and full on, so be prepared for that. We got to visit the brand new Grand Museum which was absolutely lovely. We enjoyed our time visiting all of the pyramids, museums, and cruising down the Nile River, as well as the temples and tombs. This trip had been on my husband’s bucket list for 30 years, so he was delighted by each and every visit. The ballon ride was one of my favorite add ons. Highly recommend!
