The tour was amazing for my first time being in Egypt 🇪🇬 Traveling alone as a woman can be overwhelming at times. Through this tour, I not only visited the most wonderful tenples and tombs, but I found my tribe in my fellow travelers. It felt intimate and safe. With the exception of not getting first class on the train as advertised, the whole tour is worth the money. It is very important to mention that without our fantastic guide Bee, this tour would have not being the same. Bee takes care of you, gives impressive history lessons in Egyptology, ab also give you valuable tips to save you some headaches with the vendors. I enjoyed the tour a lot 😊Bee is the best guide ever. He is honest, and constantly on our side. Our tour was detailed yet concise, and Bee's recommendations were always accurate.

Bee is the best guide ever. He is honest, and constantly on our side. Our tour was detailed yet concise, and Bee's recommendations were always accurate. We learned so much from Bee along the way, not just about Egyptian history which he immersed us in so eloquently, but also about how to navigate Egypt in general. I wish I had a guide like him in Cairo. My sister and I always felt safe with him, and we feel much safer in Egypt after touring with him. He is a genuine person and among the best tour guides ever. I felt as though I could go back in time when Bee was going through the history. The hot air balloon Bee arranged left me speechless. He is always willing to answer questions, and he is passionate about what he does. I think he is a treasure as a guide and Egypt's tourism industry should be extremely greatful for him. It was my favorite travel experience by far and we will Bee back!Bee was the most incredible guide Ive had in ANY COUNTRY. He is transparent, helpful, knows what he's talking about. You will not be dissapointed if you book this trip. The cruise is great, but the true highlights come from the history you'll see. This was such a welcome relief from people trying...
Bee was the most incredible guide Ive had in ANY COUNTRY. He is transparent, helpful, knows what he's talking about. You will not be dissapointed if you book this trip. The cruise is great, but the true highlights come from the history you'll see. This was such a welcome relief from people trying to hustle us in Cairo. Relaxation, new friends, and such a beautiful time. Will do again with friends and family!!!!Bishoy is an incredible tour guide.

Bishoy is an incredible tour guide. His best attribute is that he is always looking out for our own interest as tourists. He understands his role as a guide and explains everything in detail, without being boring. Very proactive guide, always ready for the next adventure without delays. Bishoy is also very honest and straight forward, and will tell you when a seller on the street is ripping you off or not. The sites that were chosen for the trip are amazing and, as mentioned before, he is very detailed about what each site represents and its importance in past years.The best part of the entire cruise is the guide bishoy, he was really kind and we felt really safe with him, also he makes sure to complete all the itinerary. In general it was a nice experience that I fully recommend
