    Travelled with Vacations on the go in May 2025. Ended up booking a 10 day tour to fit with all travel timings for the Nile River Cruise, an extra 2 days in Hurghada with upgraded flights to return to Cairo instead of a full day drive. All correspondence between myself, Tour Radar and Vacations on the go were replied to within 24 hours. All questions and queries were answered. Prior to arriving Vacations on the go used What's App for all communications. Arriving at the airport the tour was met with John, who lead us through airport security process and forward to our hotel check in, followed by a break down of what we were doing over the 10 days. All the added on sites and tours were organised perfectly by John and Michael. Outstanding work gentleman. Optional tours worth doing were Quad Bike riding through the dunes around Giza and Hot Air Balloon ride. Confusing part of the journey was how much we should be tipping to Vacations on the go guides. Firstly was some bank machines we tried using wouldn't accept our Visa or Wise Cards if we ran low on cash for tipping, it felt like we were limited on how much we should hand over. Also keep a tipping cash aside. As for the rest of the tour package, there's was plenty of walking, heaps of time allowed for each site, ample amount of time to rest after tours and night activities. All Vacation on the go operators we dealt with spoke English on a reasonable why to communicate with during the journey. Overall the tour was great with 10 days to experience the basic sides of Egypt. Heaps more to see and do if time permits to stay longer.

    It was an amazing experience. The guide was focused on getting us to places early, avoiding the heat and the crowds. Mansour the guide was well spoken, and took care of the whole group. At no point were we lost, or wondering what was next. Mansour was also well versed in the history and knowledge of egypt

    What an amazing trip. Our guides have made the the trip. Michael meet us at the airport and helped us navigate it when we first arrived and we're over whelmed. Tomar gave us a great tour of the pyramids and the museum. He has so much knowledge, and he shared it with us. He helped us to see the best of each location. Monsour was the best. As he said, he tries to learn from the people in the group, what they are interested in, and adjust his knowledge sharing accordingly. At every stop he looked after us, guided us to the best areas. He did an excellent job of getting us ahead of the crowd.

    We had an amazing tour of Egypt. The guides, drivers, sites, accommodations, and craftsmans far exceeded my expectations. Egypt was amazing. I got to explore and experience ancient and modern Egypt through this tour. Our guides, Michael, Tamer, and Mansour, were so amazing and made the trip come alive. Mansour stood out. He took the time to get to know my interests and needs and then tailored the tour to me. I felt safe and cared for the entire trip. I would highly recommend Tourradar and vacations to go.

    First trip to Egypt and it was great overall but there were parts that made my review good and not excellent. Meeting Michael at Cairo airport was perfect. He was attentive and helped from start to finish. Michael is a very valuable employee. Unfortunately it cannot be said for our guide in Aswan and the Nile. Cruise. Islam was ok and had great knowledge of Egyptian history but his personal skills lacked. We asked for a double room at booking and again confirmed this a few days before we left but was given a twin room on the cruise. When we asked Islam to help sort it out, comment was " it's not my problem". Also on the day we went to Abu Simbel he had stayed up drinking the night before so was not that interested in being a guide the next day. Overall though we made the best of our trip and enjoyed Egypt immensely.
