Our trip to Egypt with World Expeditions was excellent. We had two guides, one for Cairo and one for the Nile and Aswan. Both had tertiary qualifications in Egyptian history and were passionate about it. It is an amazing country a nd a great, well run tour.
Overall a great tour to Egypt. The tour guide Sam who guided us through Luxor and Aswan was amazing. Not happy about the flight booking. The travel agent booked separately for my partner and I and we had to sit separately on the flight. It was not a good experience sitting next to a stranger on a 14 hour long flight.
Both guides, Abo & Sam were excellent. Not so the flights in which we were separated unless the flight had space to move us together- not often. We also felt that the flight schedule could have been better arranged.
Under the hot and dry conditions we were looked after and given exceptional service by all the staff and local support persons. Thank you to Abu,Mohammed and Samuel we really appreciated your help and attention to detail. Joe and Carmela
