Jen | Traveled in October
You will be up early and there are a lot of stairs. All of the sites are amazing and you won’t leave Egypt thinking you missed something. Do not recommend bringing American Express cards as they’re not widely accepted. Can easily get Egyptian Pounds at the airport and in some hotels
Diana W. | Traveled in February
This tour was a deeply enriching journey, taking us through Greece’s temples, Turkey’s palaces, and Egypt’s ancient marvels. Each day was full of unique experiences, and the pace felt just right. The guides did a fantastic job explaining local culture and history, and the cruise added a relaxing layer, letting us see the scenery from a new vantage point.
Suzan | Traveled in February
My friend and I arrived at Cairo airport, after flying on Egypt Air from New York . We were met by Mohamad. He got our Visas and took us to a car and we were driven to Fairmont Nile city. The hotel was lovely. We were picked up later by our guide Ahmed , an Egyptologist, and driver we started our tour in Cairo by visiting the Great Pyramid, then on to Saqqara, a carpet making school. The next day we saw the Hanging Church, the market and we had a wonderful Egyptian lunch, then the Egyptian museum. The following day we flew to Luxor and met our next guide, another Egyptologist Saad, , who took us for our 5 days Nile cruise on the Minerva Cruise. Saad led us to all the sites from Luxor to Aswan . The ship had a wonderful crew, and all trips to the Temples and tombs were seamless. We took a fun hot air balloon ride in Luxor. The guides, the food, the hotels and flights were all perfect. We felt safe and cared for the whole trip.
