- Nicholas· July 19th, 2025I made a trip to Egypt with TourRadar, it was a cruise down the Nile. It was fantastic, well organized and the tour guide kept us very safe. There were no hidden costs and fees. We were kept very safe and were taken good care of. There wasn't too much communication about flights and the boat beforehand, however all the reviews for Nile cruises said this was the norm for most if not all operators, however not to be worried about that. I did find out the details of flights quite late, only 1-2 days before the trip. Sadly this is normal for most Nile cruise operators, however the excellent reviews reassured me and the operator was very responsive to my emails, messages and questions which was very reasuring too. When the cruise started, due to the lack of communication, I was very positively surprised how amazing things were. Everything was a massive improvement on what I was expecting. The boat was amazing, the tour operator was amazing, no hidden charges, excellent aircon in an extremely hot location, excellent facilities, no hassling for tips, kept us away from scammers, fake deals and stores. The boat facilities and staff were amazing, it was a real 5* cruise that felt more like 10*. The food was amazing, excellent bar and disco lounge, wifi and internet were good, Neflix worked in all rooms, great internet for teenagers, boat had an excellent pool, excellent optional trips ... we were taken on boat rides, swimming in the Nile, excellent tour visits of temples and sites in a great aircon vehicle, very safe and excellent company in groups. The balloon ride was very safe above Luxor, professional with air traffic control, gentle rise and descent/landing with amazing views of sunrise and the historic sights. Amazing experience, only thing was more communication around how amazing things are would help everyone. It would just be good to know in advance that all communications about the trip would be only 1-2 days before the actual departure, so people don't get too nervous. This is normal, but it would make the tour operator stand out as amazing if more notice given of what to expect. All in all, very amazing even despite the lack of comms. It was an amazing life-changing experience. Highly recommended!. Egypt and Nile cruises are very safe, lots of police and security so one can feel very safe. Egyptions are very hospitable, welcoming, but they will scam you if you don't have a great tour guide. This tour operator protect you from all of that. I did some touring of Egypt before taking the cruise and things were 100% hassle free once I joined the tour with the amazing and professional tour guides that keep you safe and show you all the best sites. Highly recommended!Show moreTrip date: July 2025

- KKshitij· April 29th, 2025I highly recommend Mohamed Kamal, an amazing person with great knowledge, attitude, and hospitality. Mohamed took us to the best places, making every single minute of our trip enjoyable and memorable. His deep knowledge of the area and its incredible history brought every site to life, and his passion for sharing Egypt’s culture was truly inspiring. Mohamed's kindness and patience ensured that every detail was taken care of, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy our trip. We had a sizeable group of 21-23 people, and I am sure it was hectic for him for 4 days. He was always cheerful and, more importantly, gave everyone personal attention. He went above and beyond to make our journey unforgettable, even surprising us by celebrating my daughter’s birthday. Mohamed is a treasure, and I believe anyone looking for a friendly, professional, and knowledgeable guide in Egypt will have an exceptional experience with him. Thank you, Mohamed, for making our trip so special. ________________________________________Show moreHoliday In Egypt commented on this reviewThank you so much for your wonderful feedback!

- KKshitij· April 28th, 2025Our Adventure in Egypt Our large group had an amazing experience in Egypt the week of April 14th, 2025. We did 4 days and 3 nights from Aswan to Luxor with Holiday in Egypt. Here are some overviews: Booking the Trip Even before the trip, it was a very easy experience booking the trip. Any questions were answered promptly. I must say, the customer service was so good. Arrival in Aswan Flying into Aswan, we didn’t know what to expect, from transport, to tours to accommodations. We were positive because even before we arrived in Aswan, our guide Mohamed Kamal was engaging us via WhatsApp. He received us with his ever-smiling nature, the same way he said bye at the end of day four. I think he might have a secret stash of happiness somewhere! The Experience It was a well-organized package, and we were taken care of all the time. I feel that we maximized our time and got more than the value we paid for in the short period of time. The tours, room/food on Renaissance and interactions with our guides were all pleasant. It certainly exceeded my expectations. I even learned how to say "thank you" in Arabic - "shukran"! The Differentiator The tour, food, room etc. is an integral part of any travel. The differentiator on this trip was Mohamed Kamal. Altogether, combining all the groups, I believe we were about 21-23 people. Even with these numbers, I constantly observed Kamal was attentive to everyone and tried to personalize the experience as much as possible. He was informative and very well organized. He communicated everything timely and there were no surprises for us. He took care of us from the time he picked us to the minute he dropped us off at the airport. Recommendation We highly recommend Holiday In Egypt. If you want an unforgettable experience, this is the way to go!Show moreHoliday In Egypt commented on this reviewDear kshitij, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us!

Since we don't control the flight schedules, we can't guarantee that you will be able to take the 8:00 AM flight. If your Sharm–Cairo flight is delayed for any reason, you would miss it. In all cases, we will make sure to book you on the first available flight from Cairo to Aswan upon your arrival. Alternatively, we can reserve the 11:00 AM flight to ensure a smooth and stress-free transition between flights.

- Holiday In EgyptOperator•Written July 2025
Please note that since this tour includes round-trip domestic flight tickets and full fare is required for children, they will be considered adults for this tour. Also, there are no Nile cruise ships that can accommodate four travelers in a single cabin. The best option for your group would be to book two double cabins.
