This itinerary was a great way to see all the highlights Egypt has to offer. Along with a fantastic Tour Director this is the perfect trip for anyone interested in the history. Part of the itinerary was a cruise on the Nile. The ship and crew were fantastic and it was easily one of my favorite parts. With daily stops and chances to bond with other Travellers it was so much fun.
This Trafalgar tour includes both ancient history and current day industry. It was very interesting to see how they make different items today in Egypt.
The food provided with the itinerary was great, options for everyone.
I highly recommend this itinerary.

I had a wonderful travel experience overall, and I would like to take a moment to highlight my time in Morocco, which was made even more memorable thanks to my exceptional English-speaking tour guide, Ayoub. His professionalism, knowledge, and dedication truly enhanced my journey.
In addition to Ayoub, I also had the pleasure of working with several other wonderful team members. Hamida, our Spanish-speaking guide, was always friendly and helpful, and Mohammed, our driver, ensured our travels were safe and efficient. Frey, one of the bilingual guides, was instrumental in picking me up in Tarifa and assisting with my transfer to Sevilla, where he facilitated a smooth transition to my hotel. I also had the opportunity to work with Itsa, an outstanding English-speaking guide in Spain and Portugal.
While all of these individuals contributed to making my trip enjoyable, Ayoub truly stood out during my time in Morocco. He went above and beyond to ensure that my vacation was not only enjoyable but unforgettable. As my primary guide for most of my time in Morocco, Ayoub’s excellent communication skills and deep knowledge of Moroccan culture, history, and landmarks made all the difference.
My trip started with an unfortunate setback in Madrid, where I became a victim of pickpocketing and lost all my cash. Ayoub showed incredible empathy and immediately reassured me that he would help. He took the initiative to ensure I could still participate in all the planned excursions and helped me make the most of my free time despite the situation.
Ayoub’s support and dedication were invaluable, and I can’t thank him enough for making my vacation so special. His care and commitment truly made this trip informative, enjoyable, and unforgettable. He is a true asset to the company, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have had him as my guide.

Excellent trip overall. Itinerary was full on, varied and interesting. Some days were perhaps too full and one visit could have been better the day after ( say). Mohamed or guide was excellent. His explanations were VERY detailed and perhaps more of an overview would suffice for those of us who were not keen Egyptologists! He looked after us very well though. The Old Cataract Hotel is a must but we organised that ourselves.

The only thing I would change is that the first day - coming right after most people had taken trans-oceanic flights and still had jet lag - was too demanding (flying to Luxor, touring Karnak before checking into ship). It would have been better to have a lighter Day One to allow for rest and time zone adjustment, and do Karnak on the way back.
The all-women's tour group and the Tour Director were outstanding and hugely enhanced the experience.
Tipping became a constant irritant and would be better if Tour Director handled tips and Insight appropriately raised the package cost, to alleviate that daily chore (ensuring correct currency & denominations, ATM visits, etc.). PS - bring American dollars in small bills.
Overall, a fascinating country, knowledgeable and constantly helpful Tour Director, and a good balance of historic and current experiences. Aswan (and the Cataract Hotel) was a definite highlight, and don't pass on Abu Simbel. It is worth the cost; as is the Aswan boat tour of the Nile (two options worth doing).
