    Looking for a safe, exciting and interactive way to experience Egypt, Look no further!! Our time spent was worth every minute and dollar! Through our Organizer John, We saw the most amazing sites, (the Pyramids blew us away) museums, and temples; learned from some of the most experienced, not to mention funny guides (Egyptologists-Tamir and Monty) and took in incredible amounts of knowledge on culture, ancient Egypt, foods and daily life. The Nile River boat was so relaxing and was staffed with wonderful friendly people, great food, drink and fantastic LIVE entertainment!! Our stays at each place was clean and comfortable, just as advertised. Giant shout out to the Sheraton Cairo Hotel and Casino, 5star all the way! We snorkeled in the Red Sea, we stood on holy grounds, and felt both humbled and larger than life at the same time. Totally worth it - don't wait - book now - you wont be sorry!!

    We were pleased that our group was limited to the 7 of us who booked this tour and that we had very personalized guides throughout the tour. Honestly, we thought that we would be in a bus tour of maybe 20 to 30 people. All of the guides were friendly and met the needs of the group and the individuals in the group. All the excursions were as expected except the light show at the pyramids which was a big letdown. We were expecting seeing a light show which is going on now for the grand opening of the grand museum. So, I would not recommend that excursion unless they change the show in the future. All in all, we were very satisfied, and we thank you and your staff for a lovely time in Egypt.

    Everything was well organized from arrival at Cairo airport to departure. The guide Mansour for Aswan and Luxor was very competent. The only negative point was that the last day's sound and light show at the pyramids was catastrophic. We couldn't see a thing, because we were behind.

    I was very satisfied. Except for few points: 1) The guides were below average. Mostly concentrated on anecdote rather than history. 2) Hotel Tolip was a true disaster. Dirty and a lot of noise from the street, no insulation at all. 3) The Sound and Light at the Pyramid was terrible. 4) The choice of restaurants during the day was poor. Improving these points will make the Tour even better, Otherwise I enjoyed very much all other aspects of the trip.

    This was the perfect introduction to Egypt. We went late in the season and with the Gaza conflict on we were the only two on the tour enjoying the knowledge and friendship of the guides. It was hot in Upper Egypt but tolerable and outing times were adjusted to early morning and evening. George, our guide in Lower Egypt was fantastic and his knowledge and pride in his ancestors was admirable. The accommodation was superb, although the Nile Ship was a little dated it was super comfortable and well equipped. The food was exceptional. We always felt very safe and looked after. Highly recommend

    Vacations to Go Travel were excellent. From the moment we met John at the airport on arrival and farewelled by Michael as we left, we were amazed at the support provided. they have a wonderful supporting them; John was a wealth of knowledge and information on all of the Cairo based travel, and Mansour in Aswan and the Nile cruise was the same. All of the questions we had about Egypt, it recent and ancient history were honestly answered and enables us to have a valuable insight to the country.

    We had 10-DAY ANCIENT EGYPT TOUR WITH NILE CRUISE from the late February to early March of 2025. The tour was very well-organized By the Vacations to go Travel for both ground and the Nile River cruise. Before we left for Egypt, Magdy sent us detailed itinerary helping us get ready for the tour. Once we arrived in Cairo, Michael did a great job of taking care of us at the airport and at the hotel. Our tour guides, George and Mansour, are very knowledgeable and keen to meet our needs or requests. We have learnt so much Egypt history from them. Our tour experience was fantastic and unforgettable. Giza pyramids are mighty and magnificent, and the first pyramid ever built - the step pyramid of Zoser, is equally impressive. Egypt museum Cairo is a must to go. Abu Simbel Temples are amazing and so beautiful. Kom Ombo Temple and Edfu Temple are additional nice surprises to us. The Valley of the Kings is an incredible place to see Pharaoh tombs and the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut and the Colossi of Memnon. The Karnak Temple in Luxor is huge and beautiful. In addition, the 3-night Nile River Cruise was very nice and comfortable. The food was delicious, and the cruise staff members were very nice. We are very grateful to the Vacations to go Travel and the people who served us.
