Great experience. A bit long, with lots of downtime to plan other excursions. Staff very responsive via WhatsApp. No issues with security. The best part of the trip was the boat ride from Luxor to Aswan. Our tour guide, Mohammed From Luxor was amazing. Energetic and happy to be taking us on a journey, couldn’t have gotten a nicer person. Food was very very good (for buffet style) and we only tip staff lump sum at the end optional). The overnight train from cairo to Luxor was not great, I suggest trying to fly between the two. I ended up taking flight back from Aswan. Overall very nice trip, no issues, great price. Lovely country and people. Once in a lifetime experience.

We booked through Viator who referred us to Here Egypt where we were in touch with Mona, she immediately contacted us through WhatsApp which made it really easy to keep in contact. She answered our questions and enquiries straight away.
We had quite a complex trip and requested a few changes to which she responded quickly and efficiently. She made the whole booking process stress free. Throughout our trip, if we had any questions, she was there.
All the transfers were smooth and Mona checked in with us before each.
In Cairo, Mohomad took care of us, alongside Farouk who was a very good guide. Rahim was an amazing driver also, so accommodating to our requests.
We weren’t keen on the sleeper train, on hindsight perhaps we should have requested a flight to Aswan and from Luxor.
For the cruise we were looked after by the amazing Mohamed Shakour, who was so much more than a tour guide! He was so knowledgeable . We decided on a change of plan and he was there, instantly organising it. Once again, no need for us to worry.
The whole team worked together to give us a seamless trip. We were so impressed by the professionalism and efficiency shown by them
I would not hesitate to recommend Here Egypt for and friends wanting to visit.

I had the most amazing tour experience thanks to our exceptional tour guide. Not only was he super knowledgeable about the area, but he was also incredibly friendly and made my wife and I feel right at home. Throughout the tour, he went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. I truly appreciate his efforts and can't recommend him enough. Everything about the tour was incredible, and it was all thanks to our fantastic guide.

Once in a lifetime trip!!! My husband and I had the most incredible time on our Egypt Tour 8 nights. Bassant arranged all of our travel details before our trip and she even made it easy for change requests for our accommodations. She was diligent at checking in on WhatsApp throughout our trip to ask if we were comfortable as we traveled. Wonderful service! Farouk our guide in Cairo was excellent. We booked a late flight from Cairo to Luxor, so Farouk offered to show us the pyramids at Saqqara (a bucket list for me!). It was a nice surprise! I was grateful Mohamed arranged our transportation and made our journey so easy. We had the same driver the whole trip, Rahim who made our driving experience safe and comfortable (and a familiar face to see at the end of our trip as well). When we arrived in Luxor for our cruise, we met our guide Owf “Owfie” and he stayed with us for the entire cruise. He was the best and made our journey so memorable and educational! We felt so honored how Owfie treated us like family, I can’t say enough how incredible of a guide he is - Owfie truly made our stay extra special! We saw so much throughout Egypt and still had a nice time relaxing on the cruise. We would recommend 100%, this was a worthwhile and a once in a lifetime experience.

Amazing trip. Very well organised and taken care of brilliantly. Our trip organiser, Bassant, messaged us each day to check that everything was ok and even organised an extra trip for us on our leisure day. The highlight was the 4 day cruise with our tour guide Mohamed Shakour - what a brilliant guide. He was warm, friendly, funny and informative. He kept the pace of our excursions steady and gave us free time at each visit for us to wonder on our own. He took us to a few workshops that weren’t included in the trip and even arranged a surprise birthday cake on the cruise for my wife. If you’re planning on doing this trip I’d recommend Bassant and definitely Mohamed Shakour! If you can tour with him you’ll be well looked after.

We enjoyed all the sites where we visited. It was amazing experience for us. This is perfect for budget tour. We can't really complain anything. And Ms. Bassant as a tour manager was awesome. She cared her customers very much. I really recommend this program to everybody who wants to visit Egypt very first time.

I can’t say enough about this tour group. It was so easy, smooth and worry free. They went above and beyond for our trip from Cairo to Aswan and arranging our trip back to the airport even though it didn’t line up with the itinerary. We got picked up from the airport by a wonderful driver, opted in on a tour for a city tour and the guide was phenomenal! Highly reccomend Saqqara Pyramids ( this was phenomenal). The night train to interesting but such an experience it is a must do ( we got a sleeper car). Luxor and every other spot was great the tour guide from Luxor to Aswan was so knowledgeable and went over everything in detail and answered all questions. The cruise was a solid American 3.5-4 star but in my opinion for the price you pay it was excellent quality. Food was amazing, rooms were large, comfortable and clean. It was my mom’s birthday and the company went above and beyond. Every stop they wished her a happy birthday and made her feel very special. I even left my sunglasses in Cairo and they managed to return them to me in Aswan. Unbelievable service and so accommodating.

We are just finishing this tour. This has truly been a great tour, seeing so many amazing sights and visiting a lot of different places, and going on the cruise boat during the tour. It was very well organised, and a special thanks to Mona from Egypt Tours, who was in daily contact with me, keeping me informed about things, and promptly answering queries and questions that I had. My wife and I are so happy that we went on this tour.
