I am so happy to have finally visited Egypt. The tour was well organised and the accommodation comfortable, but the schedule was gruelling for this 76 year old! I would recommend the 4 night Nile cruise rather than the 3 night, as even with 4 nights there was too much to see in the time allocated. I think an extra night in Cairo at either end of the tour would help. Our guide, Mohammad Shaarawy was AMAZING, very knowledgeable, passionate about his country and good fun.
