- Joanna Rose· March 7th, 2025We had the pleasure of exploring Cairo and Giza with Bassam, our Egyptologist, and Yousry, our driver, and it was an unforgettable experience. They were punctual and at the start of the tour, we were greeted with bottled water and mango juice, a thoughtful touch that made us feel immediately at ease. We went to see the Giza Pyramids, Sakkara, and the Grand Egyptian Museum. Bassam’s extensive knowledge of Egypt’s ancient history was truly impressive, and he brought each site to life with captivating stories and detailed insights. Whether explaining the history of the pyramids or the intricacies of Egyptian art, Bassam’s expertise enriched our entire visit. Bassam’s warmth and friendliness made the experience even more enjoyable. He was always ready with a smile, answering our questions with patience and enthusiasm. His passion for his work was evident in every interaction, and we never felt rushed, always encouraged to take our time and ask questions. Yousry was also exceptional. After exploring a site, it’s nice to see his warm smile while waiting for us in the car. We highly recommend them to anyone visiting Egypt – their attention to detail and commitment to our comfort made all the difference.Show moreEgypt Direct Tours commented on this reviewMany thanks, Jana, for your 5***** rating.

- SRSusan· March 4th, 2025The overall tour was very good and the guides extremely knowledgeable. We were especially well looking after by Mahmoud in the Luxor-Answan leg. Of course the sights speak for themselves, spectacular. Accommodation was middling as was the catering. The hotel in Cairo was somewhat impersonal but the food was quite good. The boat provided buffets and not all the food seemed fresh, especially on the last couple of days of the cruise. If a young man asks to take your picture in the bar say no unless you are happy to pay $80 for some indifferent photos in a slightly tacky folder. Egypt Direct Tours could have warned us about that one, though we didn’t mind most of the attempts to separate us from our cash!Show moreEgypt Direct Tours commented on this reviewThanks Susan for your feedback, and we appreciate the important information, but as for the photos and the album, it is a personal matter that you can accept or reject, and no one can force you to do something that you are not satisfied with, I was...

- RSRAJESH· February 26th, 2025We enjoyed our Egypt tour. Our guides, Mr Nasser in Cairo and Mr Omar in Luxor, Aswan, Edfu were very knowledgeable and explained Ancient Egyptian History. Our driver Mr Hasan in Cairo was good. Itinerary was good if you like to see and learn about ancient Egypt. Vegetarian Food on Nile river cruise was good. If you want to learn more about history of Egypt, reading little bit ahead of time on your own would help to grasp the information faster when guides are talking.Show moreEgypt Direct Tours commented on this reviewThank you for your 4-star review and for choosing Tour Radar & Egypt Direct Tours.

- ARAlesia· January 2nd, 2025The Premium Trip to discover Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel nine days was an overall good experience. Egypt is amazing and it is a trip you will never forget. It was well organized and Egypt Direct responded quickly to questions or issues that arose. Our tour guides were excellent and we learned a lot from them. They were all truly kind people. The cabin on the boat for the Nile cruise can be quite chilly in December, (as is Egypt in general in December) so come prepared with warm clothes. Request a cabin on an upper deck towards the center to be as far away as possible from the engines. The downtime sitting up on the deck watching the view was beautiful and much needed rest. The hotel Barcelo Cairo Pyramids was average in terms of comfort, location and newness. Don’t hesitate to ask for a better room if you don’t like the one you’re given. Expect several very early mornings and quite a bit of time spent in airports, cars, and buses traveling to the different sites. The drive to Abu Simbel starts very early in the morning and is four hours one way. It is neat to see, but worth eight hours in a bumpy bus? Not for us. The tour company was very good about making sure we had breakfast to go with our early starts and it was nice having several meals included. The hot air balloon is something you don’t want to miss! Overall, thumbs up for this trip!Show moreEgypt Direct Tours commented on this reviewMany thanks, Ruby for your comment, and kindly be informed that the distance from Aswan to Abu Simbel is 350 K/m There are instructions to move early to secure the road from Aswan to Abu Simbel, so we start early.

- Hector· December 22nd, 2024Enjoyed the tour. Omar was one of the best guides I’ve ever had. He did sucha great job with sharing information, setting pace, and just being an all around good person to be around. My driver, Yssery, was also excellent. Incrediblly friendly and willing to go the extra mile to make you feel welcomed. Nasseer, my guide in Cairo, shared a lot of great information about the sites we visited. You could tell he studied and knows his stuff.Show moreEgypt Direct Tours commented on this reviewThanks a lot, Hector for the time to leave us a 5 * review.

Asked on June 22nd, 2025do all cabins on the cruise ship have windows? Are all the day tours guaranteed to be less than 15 people in a group? If we fly out of Cairo at 7:40 pm on Nov 14, is it enough time to visit Alexandria that day? What time on Nov 13th will we arrive to Cairo?
Egypt Direct ToursOperator•Written June 20251- All Cabins are upper and have windows. 2- All day tours gurantee for minium 1 person this mean that if we have 1 booking is gurantee. 3- For Alexandria we are normaly starting early around 7:00 Am so you will have a time but i have a good idea if you would like to add Alexandria in last we can replacement day 8 to day 9 is mean. On Day 8 Alexandria. On Day 9 Egyptian Muesum Old Cairo is better.

Asked on June 10th, 2025I would really like to visit the Coptic Quarter and all the Coptic churches. The one I specifally mentioned was the one in Cairo that is built into the side of a "mountain". I would like more information about the Nile Cruise that would be different from the one I had. Do all cruises go from Aswan to Luxor or the opposite way? What is your hotel recommendation in Cairo? I would like to be in the city center (if there is one!) OR I would consider staying in Giza again. I understand about the driver and guide. Can you give me an estimate of the cost of this trip? My dates have changed from February 2026 to September or October this year. Please recommend the number of days you think would be good. I am flexible with dates and the number of days. You should know that I am 74 years old. I don't believe I would have any problems with this kind of trip. I would like the pace to be slower than a regular tour though with maybe a day of rest now and then.
- Egypt Direct ToursOperator•Written June 2025
There are cruise starting from Luxor to Aswan 4 nights 5 days. There are cruise starting from Aswan to Luxor 3 nights 4 days. We can add for you hotel in City center like Novotel El Borg or Cleopatra. You will have experience guide and patiente to take care of you.
