    · September 7th, 2025
    The entire itinerary was incredibly well planned and executed. Our guide, Talaat Abdo was excellent - he kept us updated throughout. He was equal parts funny and educated about all of the places we visited. He was the the biggest reason, I would recommend this trip to others. The itinerary while covering a lot of places also gave us enough time to relax on the boat. Definitely recommended!

    Talaat Abdo was the best tour guide during our Nile cruise! He was so informative and shared deep knowledge of Egypt’s history. Thanks to him, visiting Philae Temple, Abu Simbel, Kom Ombo, and Edfu Temple was unforgettable and truly meaningful.

    Talaat Abdo was extremely humorous and knowledgeable throughout the trip. Me and other guests had a wonderful time touring Egypt both off and on the boat. I was accidentally charged twice for the same trip, Talaat made sure to advocate for my refund and helped me get my money back.

    Everything was fantastic! Even though our time was limited, we managed to see most of the wonders that Egypt has to offer. Moreover, we had a special guide, Talaat, who showed us everything with passion and care, just as only someone who truly loves their job can do. Thank you for everything.

    Great stay, our guide Talaat Abdo was top notch, clear in his explanations and honest with us about tour prices. The cruise itself was good, with a quality meal and a beautiful boat. The crew were also very pleasant and kept everything clean.
