Very comprehensive history by guide

My idea of visiting Egypt was just to see the Pyramids and the Sphinx, bucket list items. However on this trip I uncovered that Egypt is so much more than just that. The temples are beautiful and are not spoken about enough in order to attract more tourists. Wonderful experience.

The tour was wonderful, packing in so many beautiful places in limited time. Egypt is a vast country with such a rich history that it would be impossible to try to do absolutely everything, with that said the tour really does a great job of showing all of the amazing sights Egypt has to offer. Well worth it with the Nile Cruise and all-inclusive resort stops, so much good food and great amenities. The tour leader was knowledgeable and kept us educated on the sights and Egyptian culture.

We chose the Felucca adventure and had a great time! Our tour leader George Basher was knowledgeable, kind and most accommodating! What started out as 11 strangers and ended as a Yalla family of 11!! We learned so much from this trip about Egypt, it's history and culture! Highly recommended! Thanks George!!

We spent 9 days covering a majority of the county of Egypt and touched on all of the major sites. Plus so many other things in between. Our guide, George Basher, was excellent. The itinerary was very organized as well. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone, especially if George is their tour leader.

This tour covered everything I wanted to see in Egypt, from all the ancient sites to the Red Sea. It was a fantastic and effortless way to experience the best of Egypt and George, our guide, was excellent.

You get a local Egyptologist who walk you through the history of Egypt. The transport was fine, on time and clean. The itinerary was the expected and the people are really nice.

I recently embarked on a birthday trip to Egypt organized by Expat Explore and I cannot express how truly exceptional this experience was. Covering almost the entirety of ancient Egypt in just 9 days, our journey was a perfect blend of cultural immersion and thrilling activities. Our cruise on the Nile river aboard a traditional felucca provided a unique and authentic experience. Exploring ancient temples, snorkeling in the Red Sea, and the highlight of my childhood dreams – going inside Tutankhamun's tomb – added an adventurous touch to the trip. A significant highlight of the tour was our remarkable tour leader, Mina. His profound knowledge and evident love for his country added depth to every historical site we visited. Beyond being an expert guide, he went above and beyond, offering valuable tips and even lending us cash when needed. His warmth and generosity created a welcoming atmosphere that contributed to our tour group feeling like a little family, perhaps due to us bonding overnight on the felucca – a shared laughter echoed through our journey. I've made friends for life, and we've already made plans to stay in touch and visit each other in our home countries. On the night of my birthday, Mina, our tour organizer, orchestrated a delightful surprise. The restaurant baked a cake, and the entire group joined in singing happy birthday. The thoughtful gift of a papyrus painting featuring my star sign and name in hieroglyphics added a personal touch to the celebration. While the trip was a dream come true, the only aspect I didn't plan well for was the intensity of the schedule. The packed itinerary left little room for relaxation. However, the overall experience, enriched by the amazing destinations and the wonderful people I encountered, surpassed any initial concerns about the pace. Thank you Expat Explore for crafting such a memorable and immersive travel experience. I cannot wait to explore more destinations with you soon :)
