  We had an amazing experience on the 7-day Egypt tour with TourRadar. The itinerary was very full and packed with incredible sights, which meant we got to see so much in a short time. Egypt can definitely feel chaotic at times, but our guide Ahmed made all the difference — he was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and professional throughout the trip. He kept everything running smoothly and was always happy to explain the history and answer questions. Overall, a fantastic tour that gave us unforgettable experiences and a real appreciation for Egypt’s history and culture. Our only suggestions would be that the itinerary posted on the website needs to be more detailed - the days are very long, if I am honest - if we were more informed we would’ve perhaps chosen a different tour. Most sites are crowded so be prepared for that- it’s a shame that it is not regulated more but this is not the tour company’s issue.

  Awesome knowledgeable guides and magnificient temples.I loved the way the tour was organized in that it seemed to me that each temple was the best one until I would see the next one on the tour!The boat and food was also a great experience.It was really something to cruise along the mythical Nile river.There were a few ''hiccups'' in the whole experience but no deal breakers.The only thing I did not like at all is the fact that in that tour time is allotted for different shopping experiences which I did not sign up for when I paid for the tour... We felt like they were cramming in economic opportunities for locals at the expense of less time for tourist things like sailing on a fellucca for example,or spending more time at the GEM.That is why I give 3 stars.Also when you say the meal is paid,please do not make us pay the water as it cheapens the experience... The overnight train was an awesome adventure. Would I recommend them?Yes,but they need to claw back on the shopping experiences or state at thje beginning that it is part of the tour....

  The tour gave a good taste of the main sights in Egypt. It is a heavy calendar and expect to be busy and not get a lot of down time. Remember that Egypt is currently filled with tourists so be patient with some delays Our guide Tamer was excellent helping with so many issues and requests and deserves 5 stars. Kind and lovely gentleman who was extremely knowledgeable and patient. Many American tourists are very difficult, argumentative and complain about any bump in the road and try to manage how things are going to be done. (I’m American). Enjoy the differences of the country you are in—be a traveler not a tourist. If you want American food and culture—stay in the USA. There were other nationalities in the group that wanted to be in control and continually interrupted while Tamer was explaining what the schedule was delaying Tamer ability to manage the narrative. For instance, Tamer would say you have an hour stop to take a shower and meet back at the bus. Then the person would say no I need 1 and a half hours to take a shower, etc. trying to set the schedule and run the show. This led to many issues with people not hearing the whole program and then asking continuing questions about what Tamer had said. Try wrangling a group of 40 or so tourists to be places on time and see how it feels. Our visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum was extraordinary and the Egyptologist was extremely well educated .People were upset that there were so many people there and we had to move quickly (because of the large crowds. Guide patiently explained that there were 6 floors of exhibition and we would concentrate on 1 main item on each floor. Of course people had not understood this and were upset that they didn’t get much time in the largest new museum in the world.

  The tour of Cleopatra – Egypt was an amazing experience. We visited at the perfect time—late November—and the museums of Cairo and, of course, the pyramids were absolutely incredible. The only nightmare was the train from Cairo to Aswan. It felt like something out of a zombie world. They call it a “sleeping train,” but it was dirty, stained, dusty, and the restroom was awful. Definitely not the experience we expected. On the brighter side, our tour guide Tamer Mahmoud for Aswan and Luxor was wonderful—patient, kind, and professional, even with passengers who complained constantly. He handled everything calmly and made the trip so much better. We also really appreciated that the tour leader did us a huge favor by arranging a flight back to Cairo and a hotel for only $110. They clearly understood how bad the train experience was, and their help made the end of our trip much more comfortable. Overall, I highly recommend this tour except for the night train. Avoid the “train of hell,” if you can!

  We had a great overall experience on the tour, and Tamer was an excellent tour leader—organized, knowledgeable, and very supportive throughout the trip. The main issue we faced was that some group members who chose not to join the optional tours caused unnecessary trouble. They complained about the timing, questioned why they had to wait, and spent a lot of time nagging the rest of us, which affected the group’s harmony. Another downside was the sleeper train. Unfortunately, it was quite disappointing—dirty and far below expectations. Aside from these issues, the tour itself was wonderful, and we truly appreciated Tamer’s leadership.

  Sure! Here’s the revised review with your name included: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently enjoyed a fantastic 7-day Queen Cleopatra vacation, and I can't recommend it highly enough! The experience was truly unforgettable, especially as I celebrated my 50th birthday on this amazing journey. Hossam Rashwan, our guide, was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable, enriching our experience with fascinating insights about the history and culture of Egypt. What truly stood out was the genuine care he showed towards my autistic adult son. He went above and beyond to ensure that my son felt comfortable and included, which made this trip even more special. Every detail, from the stunning sights to the attentive service, contributed to a memorable adventure that we will cherish forever. Thank you to the entire team for making this a remarkable celebration of life, history, and family! Quincy Steele ---

  The tour in general fulfilled its function, to visit the places in the itinerary. The first day in Cairo we were guided by Sohila, an excellent guide, everything was very well explained. The only thing I didn't like was the restaurant where they took us to eat. The food was the same for everyone, only 3 options: meat, chicken or fish. The hotel helnan, is not in Cairo, it is in October 6th almost 50 minutes away from the airport, our international flight of more than 18 hours and then having to wait another 50 minutes to get to the hotel makes it more tiring. The ship can improve a lot, the food was good, but it lacks cleanliness and it would be nice if they did not allow smoking, as it smells like cigarettes, I do not recommend it for traveling with children. You lose a whole day on the cruise when you move from Esdu to Luxor, and all the cruises go together so the pollution that you are breathing while you are on the terrace is very bad. The jacuzzi was not working, it gave touches to a passenger who wanted to get in. When we arrived in Luxor where we spent a night inside the ship already docked at the pier it was terrible. We were left in a super dirty place where they remodel the ships. Our guide Ahmed rushed us a lot, we had practically no time to admire the temples, All the tours start at the same time so they are crowded because all the boats arrive at the same time. The Which makes you can not appreciate or enjoy 100%. Overall it was ok but if I had known this information I would have preferred to do the tour on my own and definitely not include the cruise, so I could choose the hotels of my preference. They sell it as 5 star but it is more like 3 star for my point of view.
