I just returned from the Ramses11 tour from 23rd December to 4th January. As a solo traveler it is always a concern of mine if I will get along with the other Travellers and also being the oldest in the group this was my other concern. Never at any time did I feel left out or not part of the group. We could not have asked for a better guide. Momo was the best. He treated us like a family the whole time and showed care and compassion. I would definitely go on another tour if he was the guide. I never at any time felt unsafe in Egypt in fact I felt very safe and 100% part of a family. I was never singled out because of my age but was accepted by all. I had some issues with my card during this trip but Momo took me under his wing and helped me and I did not feel humiliated during this stressful time. I got to see the pyramids in Giza and even rode a camel there as well. All aspects and expectations were met. I would highly recommend this trip to all. I did not do the extension of Jordan and Petra but wished I had as the photos look amazing. Momo also kept us on schedule, so we did not miss anything, and he always made sure we were all on the bus and accounted for before we moved onto our next stop. He was so informative about all of the sites we visited and did so with lots of humor and animation to keep our interest. I saw lots of exciting places like the Pyramids at Giza, Luxor by night and rode the sleeper train to Aswan. Also, we had a Nile River cruise and then we spent three luxurious nights of relaxation and sun at the Red Sea at Hurghada. I would go back to Egypt in a heartbeat especially if Momo was our guide again.Show more

We had the best time. Everything ran smoothly from the airport pick up to airport drop off ( thanks Ahmed!) Sal was the most excellent guide! He is so enthusiastic and knew when to go everywhere when I wasn’t crowded The weather is perfect in December Our group was only 16-20 people. I highly recommended Abu Simbal extra trip. Only down side was the train rides to Luxor and then back to Cairo from Aswan. The bathrooms were the worst I have ever seenShow more

Me and my friend decide to visit Egypt. We booked with the local travel agency Flight Center, who together with On the Go Egypt helped us book the trip. We chose the Classical Egypt and Nile cruise package. Our tour guide was Mohammed (Momo) and we had one of the best experiences with him. Throughout the tour he showed deep knowledge of the history and beliefs of the ancient Egyptians monarchs and people. He made it possible for us to link all the historic sites, from the great pyramids to the Nubian Philae temple. He was able to interpret site paintings and hieroglyphics for us to make sense of the tour. My highlights for the tour were the pyramids, the valley of the kings and the cruise. We were generally happy with our stay. We felt safe at all timesShow more
