This was the most wonderful tour. The company were great to book with and the organization from the moment we arrived was faultless. There were 16 of us in the group so there was enough people to talk too but still the experience was very personable. Our tour guide Sherif was so knowledgeable, social and willing to go above and beyond to fit in everyone’s needs. I would highly recommend travelling with this company.Show more

We recently embarked on a remarkable journey with On The Go Tours from Cairo to Luxor in May 2023, and it exceeded all our expectations! Our family had an incredible time exploring the rich history and breathtaking sights of Egypt. From the moment we joined the tour, the organization and management were exceptional. Every detail was carefully planned, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience throughout. Our tour guide, Momo, played a pivotal role in making this trip unforgettable. His extensive knowledge and passion for his country were evident as he shared fascinating insights about the ancient sites we visited. The tour included must-see attractions like the Pyramids and Sphinx in Cairo, which left us awe-inspired by their sheer grandeur and historical significance. We were also captivated by the beauty and mystery of Luxor, where we explored ancient temples and tombs, truly immersing ourselves in Egypt's fascinating past. Momo's expertise brought the destinations to life, adding depth and context to each visit. His caring nature and attention to detail ensured that everyone in our group felt comfortable and included. No one was left behind, and he went above and beyond to accommodate any special requests or needs. Additionally, witnessing the Egyptian mummies up close was an extraordinary and spine-tingling encounter that will forever be etched in our memories. We found the tour to be great value for money. The accommodations were comfortable, transportation was reliable, and the itinerary was well-balanced, allowing us to make the most of our time in Egypt. The exceptional service provided by On The Go Tours and Momo's expertise made every penny worthwhile. Without hesitation, we highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Cairo and Luxor. Whether you are a history enthusiast, an adventure seeker, or simply curious about the wonders of Egypt, this tour offers an unforgettable experience. We are immensely grateful to On The Go Tours and Momo for creating such a remarkable journey for our family. Thank you!Show more

An unforgettable trip that certainly exceeded my expectations. Over the course of six incredible days, I had the privilege of exploring Egypt's major highlights, immersing myself in its rich history and breathtaking sights. The tour began with a visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum, and I was utterly awestruck by the sheer magnitude and beauty of the artifacts on display. One of the highlights of the tour was undoubtedly Valley of the Kings. The feeling of stepping back in time was otherworldly, and I was left in awe of the ancient Egyptians' craftsmanship and reverence for the afterlife. Throughout the tour, the organization and expertise of Momo was commendable. His passion for Egypt's history and culture shone through their engaging narratives, providing valuable insights and answering all our questions with enthusiasm. The logistics of the tour were well-coordinated, ensuring a comfortable experience. Thank you Momo & On The GoShow more

I was hesitant to go to Egypt just because i have heard it is unsafe, however, after convincing from my family i bit the bullet and went along. I'm glad i did! i had a wonderful time, definitely a mix of cultural highlights & getting to know others on the tour was a lot of fun. Everyone is very like minded which is great for a group tour. I especially enjoyed seeing the Pyramids, a dream i have had since i was young. Momo the tour guide was amazing too, very knowledgeable and friendly, happy to answer questions.Show more
