The tour was well very organised which it needed to be with all the travelling and sightseeing included. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole week, the sights of course were amazing. The overnight train was a bit of a challenge but I’m glad I chose this in preference to flying, The driver I had for the most of the week was exceptional, he was very prompt with his pick up times, friendly and his driving was safe and relaxing as far as Egypt can be relaxing ! All the guides were pretty good, non spoke perfect English but they all managed to explain everything ok. They were all knowledgeable and good company and made the trip something special to remember.Show more

It was good. All the people I met with were good. I do have my reservations on the overnight sleep train. The trip should cover all accommodation and transportation, however I was told that the fee I paid did not cover the train transportation ticket. How it come I have the room but not transportation so the train cost me $ 180 per person, additional when it come to optional trips it was really overestimated. If I chose to do it myself it will cost me half or less than what I paid. For my personal safety I chose to do it with them. In general they were good helpfulShow more
