Highly Recommend kimkim A+++
Egypt

Jul 18 - Jul 24, 2023
I looked at several agencies that provided tours in Egypt and decided on kimkim. I just wanted to say, my husband Gav and I were thrilled with our guides, & drivers and our meet and greets at the airports and facilitating the checking into the hotels. You made this such a breeze for us, and we couldn't have asked for a better company to provide. Our guide in Cairo - Rohnna (Ronnie) was outstanding, her knowledge and enthusiasm for her job was fabulous. Ronnie's English was excellent, and we gained a lot of insight from her. We travelled to Luxor where we were met again at the airport and introduced to Michael our guide for the Luxor/ Aswan part of our trip. Michael was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and his English language was A+. We had great drivers as well. The company representatives who met us at each destination, Mohammad and Zain and another whom we met only briefly so I can't recall his name were wonderful and very helpful and always made sure everything was going to plan. Tipping was expected everywhere and for everything and I was given a guide for amounts which was really helpful prior to arriving so it wasn't a shock. So thankyou once again for making our Egypt tour amazing. I would highly recommend kimkim.
Activity Reviews
Our guide Ronnie took us to a local cafe serving Egyptian delicacies which were delicious.
Our guide Ronnie was full of knowledge, we would highly recommend visiting the Pyramids, it's a must do.
Probably this was the least activity we enjoyed. The food was nice enough but the entertainment and music was way too loud and went on for too long.
Amazing, but it was really hot. Would definitely recommend. We should've gone to Tutankhamun's tomb though that was a mistake not to see that even though it was extra, we probably should have been told prior to entering the Valley of the Kings that was when we needed to decide.
Michael filled us with all his knowledge of these 2 amazing temples.
We didnt visit the Philae temple as we had a long journey in the car from Luxor to Aswan, so didn't feel up to another 6 hours driving. Our Felluca ride was a bit disappointing as there was no wind, so we were towed basically along the Nile
This was interesting to visit. It would be one of the highlights visiting this temple. We visited the Nubian village which was a colorful experience. Got to understand their way of life. We also got to swim in the Nile which was amazing.
The Cairo Museum was incredible and a must to see. Also gaining some factual information about the Cital of Salah El- Din was really good too as we gained insights into the Muslim religion we never knew. Old Cairo town is also a must and whilst there we visited the place where Jesus lived for several months as a young boy. That was an incredible experience given our Christian faith.
