    Loved our trip to Egypt through Intrepid. Intrepid made it so easy to enjoy all the wonderful sites we dreamed to see. Our tour guide made our trip personalized and gave us a wealth of history, culture, and stories! Thank you Maged Bottros!

    I wasn't told I'd be the only traveller on the tour, which was very disappointing. There was a lot of free time and not much to do, just be aware of this. You get hassled a lot by the locals, not just in the markets (avoid) but also on the streets, which are heavily polluted, dirty and unhygienic. The sights are ok, but done very quickly. The itinerary could easily be reduced to half the time. Alexandria is a pointless visit too.

    Hi Hasan - we are sorry you didn't get the experience you expected on your trip to Egypt with us. We can see that you were the only traveller on your trip due to last minute cancellations. Our trips are set to run with a minimum number of one traveller... Show more

    Tour guide Walleed was very good. Very knowledgeable and helpful. We had mixed views about the trip. Obviously the history and monuments are wonderful. Accommodations and food were just okay. One real issue was the overnight train trip from Cairo to Aswan, leaving from a seedy train station on to a decrepit train in a coffin- like cabin that was dirty, freezing ( yes, freezing) and very noisy. Unable to sleep at all and really ruined the entire next day because we were exhausted. This is a " real life experience" that should be avoided.

    Great tour covering all the sites in Egypt and our expectations were exceeded. Ahmed Elansary our tour leader was a fantastic guide who is passionate about Egypt, wanting to share his knowledge and was open minded to all our questions. Great group of people I feel we were lucky to have met which made our trip even better.

    Ahmed

    Asked on May 1st, 2016

    Looking through the reviews and someone mentioned this trip was actually from a company called Egypt 7000 and not Intrepid. How does this work?

    Operator
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten May 2016

      While Intrepid is the tour operator, they partner with local companies in order to offer in-depth, exciting optional excursions for the tour during the free time periods. The tour itself is operated by Intrepid and you will be accompanied by a professional Intrepid guide with you for the duration of the tour.
