Our trip to Egypt was amazing. Our guides, Omar and Ahmed, were knowledgeable and friendly. They catered to our needs, making sure we comfortable and seeing the sights we wanted to see. Beth and I truly enjoyed our time with them. Mr. Sabry and Mr. Said were a huge help organizing local trips and upgrading our accommodations.
The food and accommodations were first class. The Nile River trip was relaxing and the ship's crew took good care of us.
One of our favorite restaurants was the Valley of the Kings. We went twice.
The Pyramids and the museums were amazing but the Temple at Abu Simbel and the balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings and Queens should not be missed.
I might add that we felt very safe in Egypt. I would gladly go back.
Activity Reviews
If you ever need to feel like Indiana Jones, this is the place. It was one of the surprises of the trip, as it exceeded our expectations. Petra is a place you need to see. The H Luxury hotel is a great place to stay.
The Grand Museum will be a must see once it fully opens. It is an architectural marvel.
Can't go to Egypt without seeing the pyramids. Definitely worth it.
Another great day. The museum has more items than can be seen in one day. King Tut exhibition lived up to its reputation.
Our one-night stay at Seti Abu Simbel Lake Resort was pleasant. The hotel was lovely, and the highlight was visiting the Abu Simbel temple. We enjoyed the light show in the evening, which was a memorable experience.
Our Nile River cruise experience was wonderful. The boat may have been a bit older, but the crew was fantastic, and the food was excellent. We have been upgraded on a suite. We felt incredibly safe and well taken care of during our time on the cruise.
The Sofitel Winter Palace in Luxor was a beautiful hotel with a lot of history. The accommodations were comfortable, and the service was top-notch. Our visit to Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple was a highlight of our stay.
Our stay at Kempinski Ishtar Dead Sea Resort was incredible. The resort was beautiful, and the location by the Dead Sea was stunning. We had a relaxing time and wished we could have stayed longer to enjoy the spa and the surroundings.
