    We’ve done many group tours before, but this one really stood out. Everything was well-organized, the transportation was comfortable, and the hotels exceeded our expectations. Watching the sunrise from a hot air balloon was a once-in-a-lifetime moment!

    It was not a group trip which is what I expected, I was on my own and spent a lot of time waiting around to be collected by a driver , tipping was more the priority of the tour company and I was messaged on numerous occasions to remind me to tip. The sites were spectacular and as I had been to Egypt before I knew what to expect. Our tour guide for the cruise section of the trip was very good Mohammed Sakour, very Knowledgeable and fun. A number of the site visits were rushed as the cruise boat was always late to depart. My accommodation in Cairo was awful well below a 3 star hotel, it was so poor I booked my own hotel for the return leg. All in all they were some highlights , but I will not return to Egypt, they go out of their way to make tourists feel uncomfortable. Would I recommend Egypt Cruise Travel? Sadly No.

    Noor and team did a splendid job in managing this trip. The communication was on point and any questions were promptly answered. Abaas and Mohammed were absolute superstar tour guides. While Abaas entertained us with his funny and unique style of tour guiding as well as acting as a candid photographer, Mohammed's in depth knowledge and genuine smile won everyone's hearts. Way to go guys!
