    · May 30th, 2025
    A Fast-Paced, Insightful Egyptian Journey with Unforgettable People I recently completed the 7-Day Kingdom of Cairo, Aswan, and Luxor Felucca Tour, and it was a truly memorable experience. Be prepared—this is a fast-paced itinerary with early starts and lots of travel, but it's perfect if you want to see as much of Egypt as possible in a short time. Highlights: • Islam, Our Driver in Cairo: One of the absolute highlights of the entire trip. Islam had a calming, comforting presence from the moment we met him. He was incredibly knowledgeable about Cairo and Egypt as a whole, approachable, light-hearted, and totally adaptable to our needs. Within the first 20 minutes, he introduced us to aseer asab (sugarcane juice), setting the tone for a warm, welcoming experience. • Guides with Deep Knowledge: Mike was amazing—his depth of knowledge about Egypt, Nubian culture, and Aswan kept us engaged and asking questions non-stop, which he welcomed with enthusiasm. Negah brought ancient history to life and offered crucial tips to us female travelers that made a big difference in how we navigated the experience confidently. • Felucca Experience: The cruise along the Nile was a peaceful, beautiful interlude amid a packed schedule—definitely a unique way to take in Egypt’s natural beauty. Logistics: At times, the trip felt a bit like a “book as you go” experience, especially with the last-minute nature of our booking—but that was understandable. The great thing is, everyone we dealt with along the way was extremely resourceful and made sure things kept moving smoothly. This tour is ideal for travelers who want to cover a lot in a short time and don’t mind a fast pace. We'd absolutely recommend this tour, with just a little extra rest time built in next time!

    Talaat was a very good guide. Provided us with in depth explanations of the practises, history and background of the sites we visited. Talaat took the utmost care to communicate daily itineraries, safety guidelines and ensured that the people on the tour had sufficient time to explore the sites . Would definitely recommend.
