    It was intense! It was magical! It was at times, humbling! It was extraordinary! It was exhilarating! This trip lived up to and I'm delighted to say, actually passed my expectations. Great guides, knowledgeable people who brought the trip to life. Pyramids, Sphinx, Grand Museum, cruising the Nile, temples galore - there was so much to take in. At times the days were very long and it was tiring to have so many back to back events.... so be prepared to be tired.

    A lovely & exciting experience. With a great crew of people exploring a busy schedule of non-stop exploration. It’s early mornings (4am popped up often) and lots of moving and learning too. Our guides were excellent. They spoke fluent English and were more than willing to help negotiate prices if asked. Pictures? Ask. History queries about Literally Anything? Just ask. Abdul & Mohammed were wonderful hosts. If you want to have a beautiful bucket-list experience; honestly look no further. Book it

    Well paced. We were well looked after by Ahmed from start to finish. Also some of us came down with a stomach bug and Ahmed made sure we got any meds we needed. It's always difficult to keep a large group together and Ahmed did this well. I enjoyed all the information and links between the various sights and locations.

    Wonderful, fast paced tour that covers all the sites and our tour guide Ahmed Elkallaf was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and always willing to engage and help. Kharnak and Abu Simbel were the highlights for me. Our ship, the JAZ Crown Emperor was excellent, except the mattress was too hard for me. I’m sure it would be just right for others. All in all, worth every penny and more. I highly recommend Ahmed and Noubelle Tours!
