We were totally satisfied with our trip arranged by kimkim and Egypt Promotion Travel. This was the first time we used kimkim. We did a 14-day tour with a Nile cruise and a extension trip to Jordan for Petra and the Dead Sea with Egypt Promotion Travel. Amr tailored our trip to our desires. We saw all the sights we went to see. We appreciated the friendly and helpful agents that assisted us with each transfer. We had no issues with any transfer and were pleased with the provided 4/5-star lodging. We also enjoyed the guides and drivers, The guides were professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. The drivers knew how to get around the various tourist areas and city streets. We enjoyed the individual attention and tailored information of the private tours with a guide for just my wife and I. Tourism was down drastically during our trip due to the ongoing Iran-Israel-US conflict, but we saw no turmoil and felt safe the entire trip.

Activity Reviews
Visit Karnak Temple and Luxor temple

Egypt

The temples were fantastic. We recommend the balloon excursion but pass on the the Karnak night light show. The light show was disappointing and not worth the cost.

Grand Egyptian Museum tour

The new museum is awesome. We spent a whole day here and still skimmed some sections.

Petra was a key stop for us. We were fortunate to be there on a day with few other tourists. we enjoyed our donkey ride up to the Monastery

Pyramids, Sphinx, Sakkara, Memphis and camel ride

The pyramids and Sphinx were exactly what we expected. This was out only camel ride enjoyed the longer circuit. Sakkara and Memphis were our first historic stop, I thinks it is best to see them before the Giza site.

West Bank of Luxor (Valley of the Kings , Hatshepsut Temple - Colossi of Memnon) Sailing to Edfu

We recommend the balloon excursion. It was awesome to see it the Hatshepsut Temple from the air before visiting it on the ground. The temples and tombs are just incredible. Our guide was very knowledgeable. I am glad we did these early in the day beefier it got too hot.

Visit Edfou temple and Kom Ombo temple

Quality of Experience
Cairo - Amman – Wadi Rum

Jordan

The camp was empty so no social activities, too cold to swim. The sky wasn't very clear but we feel the lack of participants was why the stargazing was cancelled. For us, this was mostly a convenient stopping point on the way to Petra.

We enjoyed our float in the Dead Sea and the mud treatment experience. This was worth fitting into our tour. It was nice to have a relaxing day at the pools and spa too.
