    I must say, it was an experience of a lifetime! From the moment we arrived at the airport, I knew we were in good hands. The pickup and drop services were timely and well-organized, making my journey seamless. The Cairo day trip was incredible, with knowledgeable guide (Bassem) who brought the history and culture to life. The Oasis Desert Tour was a highlight, with breathtaking scenery and warm hospitality. The Luxor tour (with guide Heba) was equally impressive, with stunning temples and tombs that left me in awe. Throughout the trip, they demonstrated exceptional attention to detail, ensuring that every aspect of the tour was meticulously planned and executed. Thank you, for an unforgettable adventure in Egypt! I look forward to recommending you to friends and family.

    Our trip to Egypt was truly unforgettable and incredibly well-organized. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. What made the journey especially meaningful was traveling with knowledgeable Egyptologists, particularly Bassam Q. and Tarek. Their passion and deep understanding of ancient Egyptian history brought every site to life. It was a privilege to learn from them, and their insights added so much depth to the experience. This trip was absolutely worth it – highly recommended!

    I travelled with my family. This is a comprehensive tour of Egypt that touches important sites. The Guides (Nasir and Hassan) were knowledgeable, helpful and accommodating. Special mention is driver in Cairo - Muzammil who was helpful. The management is organized, flexible, polite and is available for any support required. It was my first time in Egypt and it was hassle free because of the organization. Good value.

    You will be left speechless after this tour by Egypt Direct Tours! Bassam was my guide and he made the whole experience even more memorable. Basssm was so insightful with his extensive knowledge of the Pyramids, tombs, and hieroglyphics,also was photographer in Giza and got us to Memphis, Saqarra and the VIP access to recently opened tombs. Bassam even bought water for the workers around the Pyramid complex and food for the strays in Saqqara. Doing a private tour made the experience so much better because you move at your own pace. I even had time to stop and get coffee and some snacks. I highly recommend this company for anyone wishing to come to Egypt.

    Do you offer single supplements. If yes, how much do you charge?

    Single supplement
    • Egypt Direct ToursOperatorWritten June 2025

      Yes, we do offer single supplements for our tours. A single supplement is an additional charge for solo travelers who wish to have a private room throughout their trip instead of sharing with another traveler. This covers the additional cost incurred by hotels and cruise lines for providing a room designed for two people to a single occupant. The additional is 500 USD

    Asked on April 17th, 2025

    What is the difference between a gold and a Platinum operator?

    Operator
    • Egypt Direct ToursOperatorWritten April 2025

      The terms "Gold" and "Platinum" operator in the context of a travel agency are not standardized industry-wide titles. Their meaning would depend entirely on the specific framework or program being discussed. To achieve Platinum status, an operator might need to meet more stringent criteria than a Gold operator, such as: Higher sales volume. Longer tenure with the organization. Specialized certifications or training.
