    We were to visit Egypt in March 2024 but unexpected medical emergency severely restricted my mobility which is to take 3 to 6 months to recover. Despite the cancellation conditions TourRadar readily agreed to refund my deposit. A very generous action. Communication with them was excellent and the deposit was returned to my account in days following my original message. A very honourable and reliable company which I would recommend. Sorry we missed our trip.

    We just came back from our trip to Egypt. It was a great tourist experience! Guides - their explanations were greatly in place and some facts were impressive! Drivers - very expert in driving with safety and stability. All the road factors were taken into account by the drivers. They made our trip easy and less stressful. Thoroughly recommended!

    I was thrilled by seeing Great Sphinx, Abu Simbel Temple and some pyramids. Everything went smoothly in every city. Thank you for making my dream holiday come true. Our guides provided us with plenty of information to help us make the most of our holiday. They even prepared a birthday cake for my husband. Thanks again!
