- rodneyo@goldenmessenger.com.au· June 4th, 2025This was an amazing journey taking in sights, history and local cultural attractions. We could not recommend this tour more highly. From the amazing, informative guide Ahmed Kassem who went out of his way to educate our small group about the many temples and history behind ingravings, buildings and insights to their background, all while keeping us protected and safe the whole trip. The cruise was indeed 5 star service. The boat was so much more luxurious than we expected and the sights as we travelled by various changing scenery was amazing. We could sit in the pool and eat delicious food with nightly entertainment. We would recommend to anyone. Truly life-changing.Show moreHoliday In Egypt commented on this reviewDear Rodney, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for sharing your amazing photos with us!

- Fred· May 6th, 2025We had an unforgettable five-day Nile cruise, and much of that was thanks to our incredible guide, Mohamed Kamal. His deep knowledge of Egyptian history, culture, and archaeology brought every site to life—from Luxor to Aswan. Mohamed was professional, punctual, and always went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable and informed. He answered all of our questions with patience and insight, and his passion for Egypt’s heritage was truly inspiring. The cruise itself was smooth and relaxing, but Mohamed made it a truly enriching experience.

- GRGladys· May 6th, 2025My husband and I just came back from a trip from Egypt on a 5 day Nile cruise My husband, who is very careful when planning a trip, contacted this agency called Holiday in Egypt online. We were a little apprehensive to go to Egypt because of the language and all the news about the Middle East. This agency appointed its tourist guide named Mohamed Kamal, who immediately started working on all our trip daily schedules, prices, transportation, and all necessary details for our trip. Mohamed was in touch with my husband every single day before we personally met him in Egypt. Once in Egypt, Mohammed was with us every single day, he speaks English fluently, he is highly educated about the ancient Egyptian culture, he took us to all the temples and planned touristic sites and we learned so much about the haroglyphics, tombs, pharaohs, Pyramids, etc. With Mohamed, we were no longer apprehended or worried about the unknown he made our trip so pleasant and educational. Not for one moment, he neglected us. He stayed on the ship and on land with us for the whole 5 days, making sure that all our needs were met. If anyone asks me for advice, I highly recommend Mohamed Kamal and his agency for your trip to Egypt.Show moreHoliday In Egypt commented on this reviewDear Gladys,Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience!
