Nader and his team were amazing. My wife and I and our three college age children all really enjoyed Egypt. Nader had several planning calls with us before the itinerary was finalized to make sure that all of our goals were met. From the moment we arrived at the airport the service was first class. Our representative in Cairo, Samara, met us as soon as we got off the plane and got our visas and escorted us through security. The airlines lost my wives and daughters luggage and Samara waited at the airport for hours and even went back to the airport after we left for Luxor to retrieve the bags for us. He went way above and beyond for us including getting a hotel upgrade do to our trouble with the luggage. He was incredible. Hassany was our representative in Luxor and he was amazing too. I have never had so much personal attention from a travel representative. He even took us shopping in downtown Luxor so my daughter could buy a few items of clothing while she waited on her luggage from the airlines. Zain was also great in Aswan although our stay was very short. Our guide in Cairo, Osama, was so knowledgeable and personable and made our visit so memorable. I honestly felt like we were friends at the end of the week. We planned our trip a little too aggressively from the outset, but Nader and his team were agile and changed our plans "on the fly" to accommodate us. They added trips, canceled dinner reservations and rescheduled excursions as necessary to give us the best experience possible. The Fairmont Hotel in Cairo was fantastic and the Hilton in Luxor provided a great dinner atmosphere with the pool area right on the Nile. The food in every location was great. It was so much fun learning more about the history of Egypt and seeing the sites. Having the expert guides with us to answer questions and explain things in as much or little detail as we wanted make the trip way more enjoyable than if we had done it on our own. We highly recommend visiting Egypt. It was truly the experience of a lifetime and Nader and his team were a big part of its success.
Hotel Reviews
We loved it. Rooms, service, food and amenities were first class. We would definitely stay again the next time we are in Cairo.
Rooms were average, but the pool amenities were right on the Nile and provided a great place for dinner and to unwind after a long day of traveling.
Movenpick was a great choice for us in Aswan. It's only reachable by boat which provided a unique experience and the views from both our room and from the tower bar were great. The room quality was average, but the service was superb.
Activity Reviews
Once in a lifetime experience. The Sphinx and museum were awe inspiring, but the Camel ride next to the pyramids was something we will all remember forever.
We didn't get to go because of high winds. But, others that did go highly recommended it.
The Valley of Kings and Luxor Temple were amazing and must do activities in Luxor.
The Felluca ride was terrific. Our family loves the water and the sunset Felluca cruise was perfect for us.
What a unique experience. Osama did a great job teaching us about the Muslim religion and the scenery was incredible.
The market was fun to see, but the highlight was lunch at the famous Naguib Mahfouz restaurant. What a unique experience.
Again, Osama could not have been better. The GEM was incredible to see the ancient artifacts were so incredible.
