  Words cannot express the happiness and growth my mind heart and soul have after this experience. Everything to the detail was very well organized, the cruise very comfortable, the food was delicious and the most important for me was the knowledge and kindness of all the guides throughout the trip. Thank you

  A fantastic tour by Itaca Holiday, All our guides were very helpful, knowledgeable and kind, steering us through many aspects of Egyptian history and culture. Giza,The Grand Egyptian Museum, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Karnak, the Nile Cruise, Luxor including the balloon adventure, all were very impressive. The drivers provided were helpful as well. Many thanks also to the staff of the MV Princess Sarah II and the King Pyramids View Hotel who went above and beyond to make our stays in Egypt safe and comfortable. 10/10 will recommend.

  This trip was a dream come true and more wonderful than I could have imagined. The Itaca team did everything to make this a flawless experience. They tailored the trip to my exact specifications adding and deleting activities according to my liking. Communication was excellent. Guides fantastic! I feel like I have lifelong friends in Maha ( Cairo) and Abdalla (Aswan/Luxor). Cruise was far better than I had anticipated based on the excellent pricing. Yes, the pricing listed is for bare bones tour, but you can add upgrades however you like. I upgraded some hotels for nights I wanted to relax and acclimate, but for days I had an early start ( like 4 AM) a fancy hotel upgrade was not necessary. I totally trusted Mahmoud for suggestions and guidance and he did not disappoint. Every detail worked out perfectly just as he had promised. I was a little nervous using a Gold rated company rather than Platinum and price seemed too good to be true. But I am so happy I used them ! I cannot imagine a trip that could be any better. Let me just say that the optional trip to Nubian Village is a must do. Not so much for the village, but the tranquil boat ride up the Nile to get to the village was a highlight ( amongst many highlights) of my trip. The cruise La Fayan was perfection- great good, service, rooms, etc. I will use them again! I upgraded to flights and hotels to Aswan and back to Cairo because sleeper train is not for me. One thing I will say is that the amount needed for tipping is far greater than anticipated. This is not a reflection on Itaca, but all tours. I have seen companies collect like $200 per person for tipping pool at the end of a tour so I was expecting around that number, but I spent closer to $500 in tips. I mention this because it is something I would have liked to know beforehand for planning purposes. Again, this would be with any tour not just Itaca. It does speak to the excellent services I received though and I wanted to acknowledge all those who worked hard to make this a dream come true. I will book through them on my next visit to Egypt!

  Regarding the optional camel ride: as explained during the tour, this was an additional service not included in the package. The price was clearly communicated to you by the guide before the activity took place, and the decision to participate was... Show more

  This tour was really nice! The cruise was comfortable, the food was tasty and our hotel in Cairo was also very good. Visiting Egypt was such an amaizing experience. The only "bad" thing is that on the day that we were flying to Egypt, they told us that the planning was going to be changed. Instead of doing Cairo-Aswan-Luxor we did Cairo-Luxor-Aswan, it wasn't that big of a deal but I wished they would have told us sooner so we could plan taking that in mind. Another thing is DO NOT BUY in the places where your tour guides take you. They are very kind but they obviously want to earn money and WILL scam you. Specially for the Alabaster factory, the cammels, etc. However they never force you to buy anything, they only show it to you. These are the thing why I wouldn't give this tour 5 stars. The rest of the things were amaizing. We were in contact with Ithaca through all the trip, they solved our problem and were also very flexible. Some people say that the cruise was old, I think is good enough for the money you pay. All the transports between the cruise/hotels and temples/tourist attraction is private, and the tour guides too, which makes it more personalised. Overall I would recomend anyone to take this experience. In our case we were two female university students and we felt safe when we were with the tour.

  We enjoyed the adventure and being able to see up close the sphinx and the pyramids. The seeing various temples was nice too. A lot of walking and I'm glad we were up to the challenge.

  The itinerary for Adventure Ancient Egypt - 7 Day was great and covered so much. The guides for all excursions were well versed and easy to understand. Achmed was our guide for the first day. He was friendly, gave good information and was particularly helpful when one of our fellow travelers lost their passport. The organization of the adventure was excellent. We enjoyed all of the ancient sites and the restaurants chosen for included meals. The only downside to the entire adventure was the overnight sleeper train from Cairo to Aswan and back to Cairo. The train was aged, and the cleanliness was not the best. I would suggest taking the optional plane ride instead. Overall, this adventure was just that, an adventure not to be missed. I am so glad we did it and Tourradar did a wonderful job with the organization. I highly recommend this adventure.
