- KMKevin Duncan Matthew· November 6th, 2025Our experience in Egypt was absolutely fantastic. From the moment we landed the action was constant. A new adventure every day. From the great Pyramids , to the overnight train to Aswan, then on a beutifull riverboat cruise up to Lxor, resort in the Red sea, then Back to Giza. Visiting sites daily along the way. As if visiting all these ancient sites wasn't mind blowing enough on their own, having Hossam Rashwan as a guide through it all was just fantastic. He kept our group of 19 on track day after day, site after site, consistently delivering information and insight in a professional, thoughtful manner that left us all feeling we couldn't have asked for anything more. From explaining history and hieroglyphics to recounting ancient myths, to giving us tips on where to get the best deals... Yes, our illustrious leader went above and beyond to see to the needs of everyone in the group. We feel blessed to have had him as our guide, and will certainly search him out for our next tour.Show moreTrip date: November 2025
- Megan· November 5th, 2025This was truly the most incredible adventure of my life. Holidays in Egypt did an excellent job in providing an excellent itinerary including all the must see locations in Egypt. A huge shout out to our guide Hossam Rashwan who did an AMAZING job in keeping our group of 19 that included two children, happy, satisfied and safe on our travels. Hossam Rashwan, a.k.a Sam the Magic Man was the absolute best guide anyone could ask for. His vast knowledge of history and enthusiasm to share the magical wonders of his country kept us well informed and entertained throughout. We will miss you Hossam, and look forward to seeing you again. Our fellow travelers were fabulous and I feel some lifelong connections were made on this trip. I highly recommend Holidays in Egypt to anyone one who wishes to have the perfect adventure of a lifetime!Show more
Holiday In Egypt commented on this reviewDear megan, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such an incredible adventure exploring Egypt with us. It’s great to know you enjoyed the itinerary and the experience of discovering the country’s most iconic... Show moreTrip date: November 2025 - LNLuke· November 2nd, 2025Our tour to Egypt was amazing! The Nile cruise was a real highlight, and we had a fantastic group of fellow travelers. Our guide, Hossam Rashwan, was incredibly knowledgeable and made the tour special. He put in a lot of effort to celebrate two birthdays on the trip, which was much appreciated. The team were very quick to reply to any questions, both before and during the trip, which made everything easy and stress-free. A truly unforgettable experience!Show moreTrip date: October 2025
- Raymond· November 1st, 2025This tour was exceptional. Travel in Egypt dealt quickly in the run up to the holiday with all my questions and requests - thanks to Mohamed and Alaa. Sohaila Fuad was our first guide, covering the Museum at Cairo and the pyramids, Sphinx etc at Giza. She was very professional and knowledgeable, with a great sense of humour. Her description of the artifacts at the Museum was masterful. From Aswan our guide was Hossam Rashwan. Hossam has a really impressive command of detail covering each of the sites visited. He created a real atmosphere of fun, organising two birthday celebrations and participating in the evening activities. He is a first class guide, particularly in his ability to troubleshoot and respond to problems experienced by the group. There were two young children on the tour and both Sohaila and Hossam made a real effort to include them and make things interesting for them. This is a great tour and I give it top marks at every level, Travel in Egypt, the super guides and the group itself.Show moreTrip date: October 2025
- Scott· October 31st, 2025On our first full day in Egypt we were guided by Sohaila, a very talented English speaking tour guide who introduced us to the Pyramids, Sphinx, a fun local lunch, then afternoon at the old Egyptian Museum downtown. We really enjoyed the introduction to Egyptian history and what a thrill to see the pyramids with the charming Sohaila.Show moreTrip date: October 2025

- Daniel· October 27th, 2025Holiday In Egypt did a phenomenal job with arrangements for our tour group which included 19 people. Our guide in Aswan and Luxor (via Nile River Cruise) was Hossam Rashwan. Hossam was a terrific resource for our group and he did an excellent job! There was a real spirit of cooperation and our group members were excited by the sights, on time for our transport, by large bus which was comfortable, or by 2 smaller minivans. Everyone was so satisfied with Hossam. He kept our movement on time and made sure the entire group (including 2 small children) relished the experience! Well done! When some of the group branched off to go to Hurghada, the nine of us staying 2 days in Luxor felt like we were going to miss life-long friends! Best tour for Egypt to see a great deal of interesting historic sights, without breaking the bank. A Very affordable way to see Egypt.Show more

- HOHak Tee· October 21st, 2025I choose this tour because it is a flight from Cairo to Aswan, not an overnight train. The tour has just enough free time on your own to take pictures after the guided tour. Ahmed Ali, our guide from Aswan to Luxor is very passionate about sharing of the temples, gods and goddesses, even though each site is very crowded with many tourists.Show moreTrip date: October 2025

Asked on September 29th, 2025At the end of the trip, would there be any issue with flying out from Luxor (instead of returning to Cairo)?

Asked on September 28th, 2025How much walking is required for this tour? Also, are there bathrooms in each place that we go? What type of boat are we on?
- Holiday In EgyptOperator•Written September 2025
The tour mainly consists of guided walking tours inside the temples of Ancient Egypt. Each temple visit involves light walking—usually just a few minutes at a time. For example, Philae Temple is located on an island behind the Aswan Dam. Our car will take you to the dock, where you'll board a motorboat with the group to reach the island. Once there, the guided tour will include walking around the temple and exploring the island. Please rest assured that if you feel tired at any point, there are plenty of seating areas available at each site, as well as bathroom facilities at all major locations. The tour package covers about 95% of Egypt's most important sights in just six days. Your Nile cruise will be aboard a 5-star ship for 3 nights and 4 days, on a full-board basis.

Asked on September 24th, 2025I am a solo traveler but I don't want to travel in solo. Could I join a group if travelers already booked a tour? My departure date could be on November 10 th. Please, tell me how many people are sure. I am also interest for a french guide when possible; please tell me the extra fee and for which sites. I would prefer single occupancy.
- Holiday In EgyptOperator•Written September 2025
We already have a group confirmed for the November 10 departure, so you will not be on the tour alone. Regarding a French-speaking tour guide, this can be arranged at an additional cost. Please note that in this case, the tour would be organized on a private basis, as we do not currently operate group tours in French. Our regular group tours are conducted in English only. A single room option is also available on the booking page—simply select it when booking, and we will arrange single accommodation for you throughout the entire tour.

You can book your international departure flight to Amman on day 8 of the tour, any time after 11:00 am. The domestic flight from Luxor to Cairo is scheduled to depart at 8:00 am.
