  I had a fantastic time on this tour. Sam was a great guide. He was easy to approach, really helpful and made our time fun. It's a well planned tour. The fluecca on the Nile was a highlight.

  We had a fantastic trip to Cairo, the essential egypt trip. Our guide Shady was the best, he had a lot of facts about everything and he made the whole trip fun and extra interesting and if you have a question, he can answere it and give a lot of extra details. All the facts and information he had, was so exciting to listen to, that we remember it all. If anybody wants to go on the essential egypt trip, we highly recommend Shady as a guide. He was very good at taking pictures and suggesting fun photos. He helped us hackle at the bazar, so we didn't pay to much. He has a lot of conections, so he can easily make the trip a better experience, because he always knows somebody who can help with whatever you need. We give Shady all the stars you can get, excellent service! He was the perfect guide for us, and we are sure he will be perfect for anybody else too! - Mathias and Kathrine from Denmark

  I really enjoyed this tour and it was because Sameh Makram was the tour guide. He has such rich knowledge of Egyptology and culture. His passion makes you want to learn more about it and his charisma makes the tour so much more interesting and enjoyable. Sam is also very accommodating and thoughtful. During the tour, he made sure that his tour group got to see and learn as much as possible and we were all happy with everything from the food to the itinerary. He was always there to answer questions, to help and he was very patient. The tour wouldn't have been the same without him. He's by far one of the greatest tour guides ever. I would love to go back to Egypt to do a tour with Sam again soon.

  Sameh was an incredible guide - personable, approachable, funny and knowledgeable. He was a great understanding of Egyptian history and culture and he shared it in interesting and entertaining ways, be it in enacting a play whilst at the Temple of Philae or drawing stories on the sand beside a pyramid. Sam was funny, engaging and took great care of us, even though we were a huge group. He always kept us informed and genuinely cared about us. I would love to go on another tour with Sam.

  Sameh was so passionate about his country’s history. He made the stories come alive amongst the ruins of the past. We all had fun and as the oldest there by far I felt included in the whole experience. He also convinced us that our ancestors were Egyptian! Well done Sameh!

  This was the best trip of my life! I had a blast with my travel mates. I made good friends there and we've remained in touch since then. I highly recommend Travel Talk tours! They are cool, affordable, and focus on the essentials. It is rare to find a well-balanced tour aimed towards young people that let's you have fun and visit a high number of historical sights efficiently. 5 stars!
