    Magdy and his team were exceptional. Every detail was professionally arranged, and with our additional days, Magdy tailored the itinerary perfectly to our preferences. We enjoyed every moment without feeling rushed and made excellent use of our time. All guides and representatives were knowledgeable, courteous, and extremely helpful—especially Ibrahim, our Luxor and Aswan guide, who was truly outstanding and went above and beyond, even assisting with matters on the cruise. Egypt is an enchanting destination, made even more memorable thanks to the excellent VacationsToGo travel team.

    Our Tour guides Beepo and Mansour were excellent and always cared about making every stop work for us. We felt safe and cared for. Their knowledge of the places we visited was outstanding and made our visit so informed at each site. The Sheraton Hotel was lovely. The Nile Cruise staff were excellent however yhe room booked did not have twin beds and when we arrived we were moved to another room at the rear of the boat which was very run down and dirty. The toilet did not work well, the balcony door had to be fixed and the shower rail kept falling down when you were in the shower. Mansour tried to sort out the rooms at the start however the choices were limited as the cruise was fully booked overall the cruise was a fantastic experience.

    Everyone were very kind with us. Specially Michael, Tamer and Hussein. I admire the knowledge and professionalism of the guides. We learned a lot about the Egyptian culture. I appreciate the local food. All the restaurants were amazing. Very tasty and traditional food. And the hotels were luxurious, comfortable, and classical. Like enter into a palace. Congratulations we enjoyed our visit and hope to return very soon.

    It was probably one of the most enjoyable and well organised tours I’ve done. From the moment we were met at the airport before passport control by John, to the transfers, the accommodation and the amazing tour guides Tamer and Mansour, the Nile cruise which was the highlight and our stay at Hurghada which was exceptional, it was truly fabulous. It was our first small group tour and it was lovely to just have 6 of us. I would highly recommend this tour but would suggest though to take the flight Hurghada to Cairo if you can rather than the long bus trip which we took.

    Travelled with Vacations on the go in May 2025. Ended up booking a 10 day tour to fit with all travel timings for the Nile River Cruise, an extra 2 days in Hurghada with upgraded flights to return to Cairo instead of a full day drive. All correspondence between myself, Tour Radar and Vacations on the go were replied to within 24 hours. All questions and queries were answered. Prior to arriving Vacations on the go used What's App for all communications. Arriving at the airport the tour was met with John, who lead us through airport security process and forward to our hotel check in, followed by a break down of what we were doing over the 10 days. All the added on sites and tours were organised perfectly by John and Michael. Outstanding work gentleman. Optional tours worth doing were Quad Bike riding through the dunes around Giza and Hot Air Balloon ride. Confusing part of the journey was how much we should be tipping to Vacations on the go guides. Firstly was some bank machines we tried using wouldn't accept our Visa or Wise Cards if we ran low on cash for tipping, it felt like we were limited on how much we should hand over. Also keep a tipping cash aside. As for the rest of the tour package, there's was plenty of walking, heaps of time allowed for each site, ample amount of time to rest after tours and night activities. All Vacation on the go operators we dealt with spoke English on a reasonable why to communicate with during the journey. Overall the tour was great with 10 days to experience the basic sides of Egypt. Heaps more to see and do if time permits to stay longer.
