I'm interested in a private tour for my Mum and I (sharing a room, twin beds), which includes a driver (in a SUV style car for comfort and 2 bottles of water each per day) to take us to and from the airport and each site, a guide to educate us about each site, and the internal flight from Cairo to Aswan. Could you please confirm whether or not you would be able to deliver the modified itinerary and if so, any amendments that you feel may be appropriate (particularly in terms of getting from one location to another) and what the total cost of the tour would be. We are also uncertain about the hot air balloon flight as we would like some details on how long the flight is and whether it is possible to be seated during the flight.

Unfortunately, we require a minimum of 4 travellers to be able to customise the tour. With that said, we can suggest one of our existing group tours that might align well with your requirements.

Embarking on the Nile River journey was like stepping into a time machine back to ancient Egypt. The Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx were mind-blowing. The cruise along the Nile was pure magic, with Luxor's Temples of Karnak leaving us speechless. Dressing up for a galabeya party was a blast! In short, if you want to dive deep into Egypt's rich history and have the time of your life, this trip is a must. It's like living in a real-life history book!Show more

We arrived back home in Chicago last night. I just want to tell you that we had a wonderful trip to Egypt and your agency had a big part in making the trip so enjoyable. First of all, thank you for responding to our last minute emergency with the hotel in Aswan. Everything worked out quite well after you took over making the arrangements. Every detail then worked perfectly. Your representatives in Aswan and Luxor were quite efficient and helpful - as well as the drivers. Our Cruise was a lovely boat and we were very comfortable. Most of all, I want to thank you for assigning Mohammed as our tour guide. He made ancient Egypt come alive for us. He is not only knowledgeable, he is a wonderful teacher. It is a gift to be able to impart knowledge as he does. Our only regret is that we were not able to stay longer.Show more

We enjoyed our Egypt tour very much, the guides are very knowledgeable and friendly and the driver is excellent. The whole tour was planned very smoothly. At the end of the tour we had some minor change on our plan and Vacations To Go (Mr. Aziz) had it worked out very well. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in visit Egypt. In fact, the country is very safe now so come to visit Egypt and its valuable archaeological treasures.Show more

My sister and I went on a private tour of Egypt and had a great time. Vacations to go is very helpful and organized starting from email contact before leaving for your trip. All our questions were answered and we felt very comfortable traveling to Egypt. Everyone was very helpful and extremely knowledgeable on all the tours. If possible do a private tour instead of the large group tours! I highly recommend Egypt to everyone especially with Vacations to go. The only bad part is there is a lot of traffic and noise in Cairo and cigarette smoking everywhere including hotels - but it’s worth it to see all the amazing sites the country has to offer including all the temples and sunrise on the Sahara and Sunset the Nile!Show more

Now days everyone is looking for the best place to visit while on vacation without breaking the bank… well, look no further, that place exist on the northeast of Africa and it is call Egypt. Egypt is a country that dates to the time of the pharaohs. Millennia-old monuments still sit along the fertile Nile River Valley, including the colossal Pyramids and Sphinx at Giza and the hieroglyph-lined Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings tombs in Luxor. The capital, Cairo, is home to Ottoman landmarks such as Muhammad Ali Mosque and much more. If all this opens your appetite for adventure and feel enthusiastic enough to grab your bag and head for the airport, wait, still you should play safe and contact the experts of “Vacations to Go Travel”. We are very discriminating when it comes down to preparing for our vacation – transportation, hotels, level of service, tours, restaurants, shows and specially on how I can get more for every dollars I spent. Magdy Mohamed Abdelaziz is the local representative for Vacations to Go Travel in Egypt. An individual dedicated to his job, an expert in preparing an experience tailored to your needs, anticipating everything that will make your vacation the most memorable, prioritizing your safety, wellbeing, putting all his expertise at your service with a dedicated staff that guarantees your satisfaction since the moment you say hello until the moment you say goodbye. Detailed oriented and genuine characterize his personality. We could not ask for more. My vacation to Egypt took me 10 days but my memories will last a life time thanks to Vacations to Go Travel, Magdy Mohamed Abdelaziz and his wonderful staff. I will be remiss if I don’t mention Mansour Hussein, Egyptologist who guided us during the Nile River Cruise… experience, knowledge and talent are his forte. He quilted the history, tales, legends and local jokes on each place we visit in such pleasant manner rather than trying task. To the rest of the staff - tour guides, drivers and city assistance a heartfelt THANK YOU. Everyone was extraordinary and made possible our Egypt vacation #1 on the list.Show more
