    I wasn’t sure if it was the tour or the country, and have concluded it was the country. Tour Radar did a good job of keeping us informed and responded to any questions we had in a reasonable time. We were a group of 6 and were accommodated quite well. We probably should of asked more questions

    We saw so much, including pyramids, temples, sailing on a Felucca, swam in the Nile, snorkeled the Red Sea. Tamar, our guide for the Temples & Nile Cruise was the best. Our group from all over the world had so much fun together.

    I truly enjoyed my tour in Luxor and Aswan – the temples, monuments, and history were unforgettable, and the overall organization was excellent. The guide was knowledgeable, the transportation was comfortable, and everything ran smoothly. The only recommendation I would give is regarding the tipping system. Instead of including tips in a general charge, it would feel much better to allow guests to give tips directly to the people who provide the service. This way, each person receives direct appreciation for their effort, and travelers have the flexibility to show their gratitude in a more personal way. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that I would recommend to anyone visiting Egypt.

    This tour was fantastic. Ahmed Kassen was the guide for majority of our tour and he was a gentle and kind man. He attended to all our queries, wonderings and worries (not that we ever really had any) promptly and with sincerity. He had an incredible amount of knowledge that he shared seamlessly to the group. He referred to us all as ‘his family’ the whole time and to the women as ‘his queens’, which bought a sense of calmness to the group. He was so transparent with the vendors in the street, ensuring that they respected us as tourists, but also supported the vendors to sell to us as needed, respecting the culture of his country. It was the small details, when I needed to cross the road, he would take my hand and guide me, making me feel very safe. The cruise was lovely, the staff on the cruise were friendly and the buffet food was amazing. The hole in Hurgharda was all inclusive and a beautiful beach resort. For a young couple who had never been to the Middle East before, we felt very safe, educated and well looked after with Ahmed.

    Our Tour leader was Mohammed. Very poor communication the whole trip. The only time he reached out to us was to upsell us and get us to send more money. He never had an itinerary for us the whole trip. I had to reach out every night to figure out when and where our excursions would start. Frequently we were jammed into tiny vehicles for transfers. Our last one took the driver 2 trips to get us to the airport. I would never use tour radar again after this experience.

    The tour was exceptional. Our initial pickup was well organised and smooth. We were collected directly outside the arrivals at Cairo airport and transported to our hotel. The hotel in Cairo (Swiss Inn) was comfortable and clean. Our Holiday in Egypt contact met us for an initial briefing and when we decided to change from the train to a flight there was no issue and it was sorted with no fuss. The service from all the guides throughout the tour was first class and all spoke excellent English. The Nile cruise was such a great experience with a great balance of relaxing and enjoying cruising along the Nile and stopping off and visiting the sites of ancient Egypt. Again our guide was a fully trained Egyptologist and his knowledge really added to the experience and brought the story of Egypt to life. The cruise boat had a great selection of international and local food for all meals and the staff really went above and beyond. Could not recommend the tour enough especially for people like us who were visiting Egypt for the first time.

  • E

    Esther

    Asked on August 7th, 2025

    Are there any pricing variations for Egypt tours during different seasons? I see a price difference of nearly $200 between summer and winter rates.

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • Holiday In EgyptOperatorWritten August 2025

      The $539 USD rate is a special summer rate, valid for a limited time. The current price for October is a winter rate, which is higher due to peak season demand. Booking early is recommended as prices tend to increase closer to the travel date and ensures better availability for hotels and Nile cruise cabins.

    Asked on August 5th, 2025

    How much would it cost to replace the bus with domestic flights? How much would it cost to add another day at the end of the tour and to have the optional Old Cairo, pyramid steps & Memphis tour on that added day? After a very long flight going to Egypt I would like to rest 1 day before starting the tour the day after that. How much would it cost for that additional day before the tour starts? Last question, will we be able to go inside the pyramids?
