- Chez· May 1st, 2025Venturing on my first guided tour in Egypt with Holidays in Egypt after a history of independent travel proved to be an exceptionally rewarding decision. From the outset, I was thoroughly impressed by their seamless organisation and unwavering commitment to our safety and comfort. Navigating the complexities of Egypt, from transportation to entry queues, can be daunting for a first-timer to Egypt. However, Holidays in Egypt expertly handled every logistical detail, transforming potential stress into effortless ease. The relief of not having to negotiate every step allowed me to fully immerse myself in the profound experiences Egypt has to offer. The depth of local knowledge and historical insights shared by our guides was truly enriching; I learned far more than I anticipated. Our journey began the moment we landed at Cairo's airport, where our friendly driver was promptly waiting to escort us to a magnificent 5-star hotel near the iconic Giza pyramids. Following a smooth check-in and a well-arranged start to our first morning, we enjoyed breakfast and embarked on a fascinating tour of Cairo. Our Cairo guide, a true professional with a university background in Egyptian history, brought the ancient world to life as we explored the awe-inspiring scale and age of these remarkable artifacts. The day's explorations left us happily tired, and the overnight sleeper train to Aswan was a welcome respite. The Holidays in Egypt team continued to provide exceptional support, accompanying us to our cabins, ensuring the train staff were appropriately tipped for excellent service. While the "first-class" sleeper train might align more closely with a Western 3-star standard in terms of age and space, it was perfectly comfortable for a night's sleep. It's worth noting that the single meal provided caters well to meat eaters, but those with specific dietary requirements should be aware of the limited options. Also, be sure to download entertainment beforehand, as there is no Wi-Fi and cellular data is patchy to nonexistent. Arriving in Aswan around 11 am, we were warmly greeted by our new guide, a charming Luxor local who affectionately dubbed our group of twelve the "Royal Family." Spending the next four days with the knowledgeable and engaging Mr. Kassem was an absolute pleasure. Our introduction to Aswan included a visit to a beautiful temple and a local lunch before we checked into our luxurious 5-star Nile cruise. The cabins were spacious, boasting large windows that offered breathtaking panoramic views of the ever-changing scenery along the Nile. The subsequent three nights on the cruise were a highlight, with seamless transitions on and off the boat to explore the significant temples and tombs between Aswan and Luxor. The guides' historical expertise, combined with their invaluable local insights for smooth navigation, truly elevated the tour. We also appreciated the ample downtime to unwind by the pool, enjoying cocktails as the timeless beauty of the Nile Riverbanks drifted by. On our final day, an early start allowed us to avoid the crowds, and we concluded our sightseeing by early afternoon. With our overnight train back to Cairo scheduled for the evening, Holidays in Egypt thoughtfully arranged for us to relax by the pool and freshen up before our driver returned to safely escort us back to the train station. While an upgrade to flights was offered, we found the comfortable sleeper train perfectly adequate for an overnight journey. The exceptional service continued right until the very end. Upon our arrival at the Cairo train station, our reliable driver was there to meet us, even taking care of tipping the train staff before ensuring our safe and timely transfer to the airport. My experience in Egypt was truly unforgettable, largely thanks to the outstanding care and meticulous planning of Holidays in Egypt. Their impeccable coordination, attention to both group and individual needs, and unwavering focus on our safety created a stress-free and enriching adventure. I wholeheartedly recommend Holidays in Egypt and commend them for setting such a high standard for future tours. They have undoubtedly earned future business!"Show moreHoliday In Egypt commented on this reviewDear Chez, Thank you so much for your kind and detailed review!

- Chertty· April 25th, 2025started the tour very well, until the 3rd day of the cruise; we were on a temple after 6 pm. I fractured my right ankle. i must tell you how well our tour guide Ahmed Kassem took care of me, He never left my side, arrange all the transportation to and from the ship, to the doctor, to the pharmacy; arrange our flight back from Luxor to Cairo and make sure that a wheelchair was available. He coordinated with the owner of the company and paid all expenses for the vans, doctors, medications and supply, flight back to Cairo. We never felt abandoned and make sure we could arrange an early flight back home. My husband and I are forever grateful to have been taken care so well. Thank you Chertty and Ivan. (I would have give a 5 star, but I got hurt and couldn't finish tour, but you got a 5 star for taking care of me so well) I want to thank my tour group people.

- NBNoelle· April 17th, 2025I can’t say enough positive things about my incredible week in Egypt with Holiday in Egypt! As a female solo traveler, safety and security were my top priorities—along with experiencing the breathtaking ancient sites—and this trip exceeded all my expectations. Holiday in Egypt was exceptionally organized and attentive to every detail, from flight arrivals and pickups to hotel arrangements, the Nile cruise, and meals throughout the tour days. But what truly set this experience apart was the warmth, professionalism, and deep knowledge of the entire team. A heartfelt thank you to Mohammed for flawlessly coordinating all logistics and communications—it made everything feel effortless. To Hassan, the funniest, most insightful, and genuinely kind tour guide I’ve ever had: your stories, humor, and vast knowledge of ancient Egyptian history made every moment unforgettable. And to Abdul, thank you for making my last day so special—touring the new Egyptian Museum and Saqqara, trying Koshari for the first time, and wandering Khan El Khalili was the perfect way to wrap up an incredible journey. I’ll never forget this trip and will 100% be coming back to Egypt!Show moreHoliday In Egypt commented on this reviewDear Noelle, Thank you so much for your heartfelt review!

- Michael· April 12th, 2025Before the trip communication was good, arranged to meet outside the arrivals exit. Cleared visa & customs & exited the building, looking around for the taxi driver with a sign bearing my name, checked all the placards present NONE showing my name or any with the tour operator HOLIDAYS IN EGYPT on them. I was concerned & disappointed & decided to sit on a bench in front of the departures exit with the other drivers waiting to pick up their guests. Frequently checking the signs for my name or tour operator, I decided to re-enter the departures terminal to speak to staff who told me to go back outside & wait, now getting worried no phone connection, no contact available, the airport taxi co pointed out that it was their major holiday (Ramadan) so the driver probably will not arrive, so I accepted to pay for the ride to the hotel it was £50 a rip off. (I was told the driver picked up the 2nd passenger & all was ok, NOBODY was waiting with a sign either with my name or the company name on it) The accommodation & tour was good, the guides knowledgeable & accommodating no fault there, the taxi pickups were bad, My upgrade on the last day was a disaster, instead of 15 hours on the overnight train, 2 chose to fly, the plan was to arrive in the evening, relax get fed, have a long goodnight sleep, wake up refreshed to fly home the next day, we had a late evening flight which was eventually delayed, (we should have had a early flight even after the delay would have arrived before midnight) arrived in Cairo about midnight trying to contact the taxi driver, he was not at the exit (again) he phoned me but couldn't speak good English, wi-fi was bad confusion we were in 2 distant locations, eventually a airport worker copied his number, spoke to him in Arabic gave our location, he came picked us up,( if I was a lone female or on my own with limited wi-fi etc without the intervention of the airport personnel it would be very scary) the 1st drop-off was close, a near by airport hotel, mine was a long drive back to Giza, I arrived after 2am got to bed about 2.30am a few hours sleep awake for breakfast before a long day to fly home, NOT IMPRESSED, contacted the tour manager he made the usual excuses, reading from a script full of clichés they have my monies, I am back home & powerless, I would not recommend this company positively to anyone , I would expect a refund of 1/2 the taxi fare from the airport to the hotel & 1/2 the upgrade fee from Luxor to Cairo, but I am not going to hold my breath in anticipation.Show moreHoliday In Egypt commented on this reviewDear Michael Thank you for sharing your feedback.

- TargetTony1· April 6th, 2025I want all to know that Egypt is very safe to travel. Giza where the Pryamids are is not Gaza where the conflict is. Our guide Sohaila the first day was excellent. She was very knowledgeable. Our other guide was Ahmed Kassem. He guided us through the rest of our trip and cruise. He is very knowledgeable and in tune to what the group needs. He has an attention for detail. The accommodations was excellent. Stayed at the Greenland hotel in God's and the Radamis cruise ship was very nice. Food was outstanding and plenty of it. You should come prepared for lots of walking on uneven surfaces in very warm weather. The evenings were cool enough to were a light jacket and a small umbrella would be a good choice for Sun shade when doing Abu Simbel and the Pryamids/Sphinx. I could not have been more happy with our group and Holiday in Egypt Tours. I highly recommend them.Show moreHoliday In Egypt commented on this reviewDear Anthony Thank you for your wonderful review and for sharing your experience!

Traveler•Written March 2025I assume the Alexandria tour starts in the last day of the main Queen Cleopatra tour in Cairo and ends at 6pm in Cairo. Therefore there may not be time to leave Cairo that day and an overnight stay in Cairo hotel would be needed. Please confirm. Is the Alexandria tour guided from Cairo to he end?

The Alexandria tour is a guided tour that can be done on any free day if you have an extra night in Cairo before or after the tour. Alternatively, you can do it on the last day after arriving in Cairo by train and then head to the airport afterward. If you opt for the second choice, please ensure that your international flight is booked by 9 PM or later.
