  4.5 - Excellent

  The cruise was excellent. The hotel in Cairo was very good. The bus ride from Cairo to Luxor was the bus ride from hell. Movies constantly played and until the bus got out of the area around Cairo the drive constantly used his horn. The seats were tight. It... Read more

  Thank you for your comments, yes its true this tour is reasonably priced in order to give many people the opportunity to see a small portion on Egypt and its history. It is not comparable to western standards, but it would not be Egypt if it was. For those who wish to see more look for our new tours.

  The trip was spectacular. We didn't have to worry about anything. Our flight was delayed by 4 hours and the people that picked us up at 130am were pleasant and genuinely happy to get us at such a late hour. Our main guide Alaa was extremely knowledgeable... Read more

  This is a great tour to see all the ancient wonders of Egypt. Our guide for the first day in Cairo seemed a bit unfocused at times and I was dreading the rest of the trip with him, but once we got to Luxor and met up with Ayman it was smooth sailing. He was... Read more

  This company is terrible. If you’re a woman travelling alone I wouldn’t recommend them at all. I knew Egypt would be culturally different and as someone that doesn’t speak arabic booking with an agency was my best shot to survive during this trip. Every... Read more

  Response will come once this is investigated. See my response Dear Miss Camila Gotuzzo Barrios Now I have reviewed your booking from the day it was booked back in Mar 2019, you booked as a single female traveller. You had requested cost of added night hotel in Cairo, given a rate of $75.00 usd single rate. You then choose to purchase the tour requested 8-day Essential Egypt tour (Pharaoh’s Nile Cruise 8 days. May 4, you contacted tour radar to make payment arrangements. May 21, we requested your flight arrival information to book your transfers and hotel. (no mention of cancelling) June 7/8 you contacted us to inquire about insurance. Also, no question about extra tours costs. , safety as a single female traveling alone. (no mention of cancelling booking) June 8, you received reply regarding how to purchase insurance, you also received quote of extra night at end of tour in Cairo $50.00 usd. (this was quote based on 2 sharing) Was explained to you by our guide and you paid the $75.00 usd as the original amount quoted to you on booking and explained by guide. Now a month goes by and its July 10, you send us the flight information 9 days prior to arrival in Cairo. Our response to you is confirmation of, Pick up /Transfer to Hotel and Hotel name. Ad the contact # for our guide in Egypt. July 20 You arrive: no contact from you regarding a problem. July 22, you complain via tour radar that you don’t like your guide and want another one. Our response to this is the same day. And you are accommodated with the request. Part of the complaint is the guide did not let you spend time to take pictures, when in fact you were at Luxor Temple for 4 hours. More time than most people get. You also make claims regarding our guide as being intrusive? If you felt in danger, felt unsafe, etc. Why did you not speak to the many security personnel or police at these sites or call the what’s app number provided to you? I run a tour company; we provided the tour as its stated in our booking information as Tour radar has on their website. In your own words” that being said, in terms of destinations you will go to everything that is promised in the itinerary. “ Your balloon ride was cancelled which is unfortunate, but this is a company we use and that is solely at their discretion, the cost of the (99.99) usd was transferred to the Nubian Village tour. Which you agreed to. You were charged for the sleeper train from Cairo to Luxor as a single and received that accommodation, and on the return, you did not get the single berth as you told our guide that you would be sharing. So, he gave you the 30.00 refund in the price difference in cash. On arrival back in Cairo you had booked the extra night, and we charged $75.00 usd single rate, you also requested the day trip to see: Islamic Cairo, Coptic Cairo and the Market place, our guide did charge you the rate for this trip at $120.00 usd provide you a guided tour to these places. I fail to see how by providing you the tour, the accommodation for the changes to make you more comfortable. We are a “terrible Company”? As for you comment regarding cancelling, you booking make no mention at all of you wanting to cancel this booking. Not only was it not mentioned, its is clearly in our terms and Conditions. I do not know what it is you were looking for? But you must have researched our tour on your own, and in doing so thought it was going to take you to a destination your interested in or you would not have booked it. As Manager of this Company, and personally knowing my guides. I know they go above and beyond for our Clients to show them the amazing Country called Egypt. We are sorry you didn’t see it that way, perhaps your next Destination will be more to your liking. Sincerely Beverley Haystead Manager Beyond the Nile Tours.
