Hussein was amazing enjoyed his information and the presentation. Accommodation and meals on the boat was great.
Immortal Egypt – GEM & 5-Star AccommodationIt was a really good experience. Everything was really well organized by Holiday in Egipt, good logistics (the driver was always awaiting for us in the tours, airport or train station). The guides are really good, they know a lot about all the things we visit, and as all Egyptians, they're so kind. The hotel and the cruise are really top, they're really 5 stars hotels, with buffet for all meals. The only bad thing is about TourRadar: be careful, in the "not included" section, it's mentioned that entrances and tips are not included, so additionally to the price you pay for the tour, at your arrival in Egipt you'll still have to pay this part (in my case it was 206 USD). I think this practice is kind of dishonest because when reserving and paying, the site NEVER says that this amount is still missing. It should specify, really explicit, that this 200 dollars will have to be paid, but instead you have to read between the lines. Only negative point about the experience (again, it's a negative point for TourRadar, not for the local enterprise Holiday in Egipt).
Queen Cleopatra – Pyramids, GEM, Nile Cruise & 5-Star AccommodationOverall very good, not excellent. The program was excellent. Our tour guide, Yujin, was great. Some of the hotels were a little crampy.

What our customers ask about Fully Guided Tours & Trips
What are fully guided accommodations like?
You'll stay in comfortable 3-5 star hotels chosen for their location and quality. In Japan, this means places like the Star Gate Hotel near Kansai Airport and Osaka Castle Hotel. If you're headed to Egypt, you'll split your time between nice hotels like the Tolip Golden Plaza in Cairo and boats for your Nile cruise. One happy traveler put it well: "The hotels throughout the tour were all clean and comfortable. Our accommodation was everywhere acceptable and in nice boutique hotels."
How do you get around on fully guided tours?
Your guide takes care of all the travel details, so you can relax. You'll ride in comfortable, air-conditioned vehicles - small vans for smaller groups or larger buses when needed. In India, for example, groups of 4-5 travel in Toyota Innovas. Some trips mix it up with special travel experiences, like taking an overnight train in Vietnam or cruising down the Nile in Egypt. Your guide handles everything, including making sure your bags get to your room.
How active are fully guided tours?
It really depends on the tour, but most keep things at an easy to moderate level. You might walk for 2-3 hours on city tours, climb some stairs at temples or museums, or take optional hikes. In Japan, for instance, the Mount Fuji visit includes some walking at 7,546 feet (2,300m). Your guide will make sure the pace works for everyone in the group, and you'll have plenty of downtime at your hotel to rest up between activities.
How much free time do you get on fully guided tours?
You typically get 2-4 hours of free time each day to explore on your own. In India, for example, many tours do sightseeing in the morning and leave afternoons open. Your guide (travelers often mention guides like Neeraj) will suggest great things to do during your free time. Some tours also offer optional activities - like visiting the Abu Simbel temples in Egypt - if you want to add more to your day.
When's the best time to take a fully guided tour?
It really depends where you're going. Vietnam is best from October to March when you'll miss the monsoon season. Morocco shines in spring (March-May) and fall (September-November) when the weather is warm but not too hot. As one traveler who went to Vietnam shared: "We went in April and had perfect weather - not too hot or rainy, making the outdoor activities much more enjoyable."
