  Caveat: we had booked an Egypt and Jordan tour. Due to global events, were unable to take on the Jordan portion so can only speak to the Egypt portion of our trip (Vacations to Go helped us immensely in sorting out the Jordan portion). Our tour handlers, John and Mansour were fantastic. Itinerary was busy but not frantic. We learned and saw a lot of Egypt that we hoped to immerse in. Vacations to Go were quick in communications prior to the trip and our tour handlers provided such prompt and practical information, we never felt out of the loop or confused. We felt very taken care of. John, for example helped us get an early check-in when he didn't have to and Mansour arranged a car when we felt uncomfortable taking the horse carriage ride. Little details like this went a very long way for our experience. So a big thank you to John and Mansour for their hospitality and kindness.Show more

  This trip through Egypt was honestly amazing, and some moments are going to stay with me forever. The biggest highlight for me was Luxor and Karnak temples, they are absolutely unreal. Walking through them in real life is so different from seeing photos, and the scale and atmosphere are just incredible. It’s one of those experiences that really makes you stop and take it all in. Our guide in Luxor, Mansour, made this part of the trip even better. He was so knowledgeable but also really warm and easy to talk to, which made everything feel relaxed and enjoyable. One of the most fun nights of the cruise was the galabeya party. Mansour helped us find a great shop beforehand so we could buy traditional galabeyas, and getting to wear them that night was such a fun way to experience the culture, it was definitely a highlight. The Nile cruise itself was a great way to travel. The staff were always kind and welcoming, and the food was consistently good with lots of choice, which made the whole experience even more comfortable. Cairo was also a great start to the trip. The Grand Egyptian Museum is huge and stunning, and our guide there, Tamer, was very knowledgeable and informative, which made everything run smoothly. Overall, this trip felt really well balanced with incredible sights, great guides, and genuinely fun cultural experiences. I’d 100% recommend it to anyone thinking about visiting Egypt.Show more

  We absolutely loved this trip! It was a fantastic experience, especially with the lovely small group we traveled with. The Nile cruise was a lot of fun, particularly the sailing time and the Galabeya party. The A Sara cruise was really nice, though Jaz Pyramids is a bit far from town. I highly recommend the Sound & Light Show at the Pyramids with the dinner option, and the hot air balloon ride was definitely a highlight of the trip. Having cash is essential, as credit card payments aren't widely accepted, especially in smaller shops. We hope to return one day .Show more

  It was wonderful to learn that this was the first operation of this tour, and I loved the small group setting. We joined other travelers who were booked on different tours with Vacations to Go Travel, but only for the Nile cruise portion, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Meeting people from different parts of the world and exploring Egypt's beautiful historical sites together was truly special. Mansour, our guide, was fantastic. He took great care of everyone and handled any issues perfectly. Tamer, our Egyptologist in Cairo, was also incredibly knowledgeable. Both Mansour and Tamer shared fascinating information and stories about the sites we visited, making the trip even more valuable. It’s good to budget extra money for optional tours, tipping, and entrance fees, and be cautious of the local street vendors. Thank you to the entire team for making this trip a memorable one. I've already recommended it to family and friends!, Diana and MaureenShow more
