We had such a good time on this tour! It was well organised, with people contacting you and waiting for you at ALL times and guides explaining the rich history throughout all sites. Even though 4 days is way too short to see all of Egypt, we feel like this tour gave us a very nice overview of the country.Show more

Once in a lifetime trip. Was very busy, but always felt safe and everything was well organized. The team was great communicating via WhatsApp. The hotels were nice, in Giza had a view of the pyramids & in Luxor right on the Nile. Had private tours with great guides in each city. Couldn't have asked for more, especially for the price.Show more

Wonderful experience! the team at Egypt Best Holidays arranged for our group , from start to finish, We felt very safe and well informed. From the moment our plane landed in Aswan, Our tour guide Khaled & the team were beyond outstanding 1st class from the very beginning when booking to the very end drop off back at our location. They are professional, very communicative, safe, beyond knowledgeable, kind, fun, honest & the pricing is excellent for private tour. I really can't say enough about them. so it was an incredible trip. Thanks!Show more

Accommodation in Giza was poor and we checked out he next day to stay at the Hilton near the Cairo airport at our own expense. Decided to return to Dubai and not go back to the Giza Hotel on the fourth night because of our horrible experience with the bed and breakfast and the area. Stayed only two of the four nights booked by Egypt Best Holidays. The tour operator did not provide us with an itinerary package of details / arrangements and we spent time calling/texting Peter often for information. Once we got on the individual locations, the guides and drivers were good. Aswan was disappointing since we did not get the chance to see anything there except ABU Simbel for one hour. This leg should be configured to eliminate the amount of time spent on ground transport. Perhaps view some Aswan attractions and fly from Abu Simbel or Aswan to other location on a revised itinerary. Difficult to recommend Egypt Best Holidays or to use Tour Radar again.Show more

Dear Valued Guest, Thank-you for taking the time to leave a review. We already booked your second stay at Novotel airport and we upgraded your hotel in Luxor to be 5 stars hotel instead of the 4 stars and we even booked the hotel you exactly chose in Luxor just to make you happy , although you didn't read the itinerary , even the flight you asked us to change it only to come back 2 hours earlier and we did all of that FREE OF CHARGE , the tour doesn't include any sightseeing in Aswan , it is only includes Abu simbel which PROVES you didn't read anything in the itinerary with what including and excluding AT ALL , It was a pleasure showing you around.” Stay Safe :) , Egypt Best Holidays

Amazing tour. Everything was well organized throughout the days so that you get to see as much as possible in just 5 days without overloading the days. The tour is organized in such a way that you have much time to relax or/and add more stops in your itinerary. I really recommend this tour to anyone who wants to visit Egypt and have a full experience by visiting Cairo, Giza, Luxor and Abu Simbel along with top certified tour guides. Special thanks to Hanny Yassin, our tour guide, for his awesome work and for the time we had in Abu Simbel and Luxor. It was a pleasure meeting you. We had a blast!Show more
