- Angele· July 14th, 2025This was a fantastic tour to see many amazing parts of Egypt! We were able to safely travel to many cities across Egypt through a variety of modes of transportation (plane, boat, car) with a wonderful and attentive guide. This tour gives travellers so much insight into the history of Egypt. I appreciated our guide providing time to share information with us and then allowing us time to explore on our own. Our guide created a safe and comfortable experience for us.Show more

- Stephen· June 22nd, 2025We had a great trip, starting with our guide Abdou in Cairo on a tour of the pyramids and the Egyptian museum in one day. He was very knowledgeable, personalble and had lots of energy. We then flew to Aswan and over the next few days sailed down the Nile visiting various sites including Abu Simbel. the Philae temple, Edfu, Kom Ombo, and various amazing places in and around Luxor. Our guide, Ahmed, was also full of information and explained everything clearly and with passion. He also helped with many practical issues on the trip. Shukran! The boat was a great standard and food was on par also. The staff onboard were all very helpful. I was especially impressed with how everything worked out, as the logistics are complicated. Thanks to all the Beyond The Nile / Nourbelle Tours staff and drivers for their help.Show moreBeyond The Nile Tours commented on this reviewThank you for your feedback and for choosing Beyond The Nile Tours for your Egyptian journey.

Trip date: June 2025 - Kurtis· June 15th, 2025This was my wife’s and I’s honeymoon. This was a jam packed yet awesome experience. By the time you arrive to the Red Sea you’ll be ready and deserving of a few restful days. Being here just prior to the summer season led to some hot days but also less crowds and more personal of an experience. Less crowds to contend with. We kept being told we arrived just at the right time of the shoulder season. In Cairo the team of Mostafa, Ali and Abdo knocked it out of the park! The pyramids and Egyptian museum day is a marathon but they made sure everyone felt safe, organized, informed and most of all entertained. I celebrated my birthday in Cairo and the staff was nothing but kind. Aswan- Luxor cruise again is packed with temples and tours but there is down time to enjoy the views from the cruise. Saladino was was an absolutely superb guide and cannot say enough about his knowledge and enthusiasm. He made my wife and I feel at home quickly and we are so thankful for all he did for us. Every optional tour we did (Abul Simbel, city tour, Nubian village and hot air balloon) were great. Made for long days at times but again when in Egypt right? Hurghada resort has been great way to end this adventure to refresh. Each step of the way the team has done their best to get us to our next location safely and efficiently and as well were accommodating to other requests.Show moreBeyond The Nile Tours commented on this reviewThank you for your feedback and for choosing Beyond The Nile Tours for your Egyptian journey.

- Carmen· June 5th, 2025*Note this is 2nd attempt to have review for “other travelers” posted- Tour Radar appears to select only positive reviews to publish on their website* 1 Lack of Compassion- Tour booked Oct. 21 2024; devastating cancer diagnosis of member of traveling party and request for cancellation/refund made less than 90 days after, on Dec. 27, 2024 (nearly five months *before* tour date) was denied on falsehood that tours and accommodations had already been reserved & paid for; 2 Lie of “Bookings/reservations already made”….in late December 2024 3 Refusal to provide detailed/specific itinerary information prior to start of travel that included customized tour additions/upgrades- these were not provided after paid-in-full-date, not two weeks prior to travel, not even day before travel and made it difficult to make travel arrangements in a timely manner. 4 Providing full daily tour schedule only after arrival, which was inaccurate and according to Harry “not the updated schedule” 5 Unilaterally altered and/or eliminated individual tours specifically included in tour listing (IE. Aswan Dam and Edfu w/ carriage ride) and pushed “optional” tour items (IE. Luxor carriage ride) as a substitute….at an additional charge as well as pushed Nubian Village tour 6 Advised night before departure for Aswan that schedule/itinerary for next day was being dramatically altered with flight time and airline….changing airline noted in tour listing from Egypt Air to lower cost, no-name airline, Nesma Air…..presumably because air reservations were only secured within days of travel (and NOT in December 2024) 7 Entire itinerary/schedule handled with a ‘maximum flexibility/subject to change’ philosophy- every time a guest asked for a specific departure or meeting time, no exact time was given…IE. response would be ‘after breakfast,’ or ‘after lunch’, or ‘after dinner’; not “We leave at 2pm” or “We meet back up at 6pm” 8 Tour guides ended up accommodating the constant lateness of a single guest at the expense of the remaining nine guests….nearly every tour had nine guests waiting in a cafe or somewhere shady for relief from the ‘record breaking heat’ for this one guest who refused to have consideration for the nine others in the group. 9 Hot Air Balloon Sunset over Nile add-on excursion was *very poor*…..the maximum capacity balloon baskets that accommodated 32 passengers was unacceptable when the price for the tour ($125p/p) was so much higher than we would have paid had we made arrangements independently with an unaffiliated operator that doesn’t try to cram in the most number of people for the least possible cost. The balloon pilot did not rotate the basket during flight to give all passengers full photo opportunities- we had zero aerial pictures of the Valley of the Kings and Hatchepsut Temple because we faced the Nile exclusively during that part of flight time. Baskets should have a maximum capacity of half the number, 16, if not six. 10 Given BNT’s refusal to provide detailed tour/itinerary information to guests- specifically with regard to names of hotels, ships, etc., the accommodations for the Hurghada add-on were completely unacceptable. As U.S. citizens, we have *serious* issues with being booked at a so-called “all-inclusive” resort (which it most definitely is NOT) that is closely affiliated with Russian interests- from the majority of guests, to the significant contingent of Russian staff, to the extensive signage in Russian, to the 24-hour surveillance warnings. 11 The Pyramisa Sahel Hasheesh is not what it claims- unless WiFi availability limited to the lobby atrium (none in room); pool closing at 6pm; €2 for cotton candy or ‘specialty’ ice cream; €1 for a tiny box of popcorn; €50 per person for each meal (who pays €50 for breakfast??) for on-site restaurants other than the hotel buffet, is your definition of “all-inclusive”. 12 The meals/food available on both the cruise ship and Pyramisa resort were nothing to look forward to. The ‘breakfast boxes’ provided by the cruise ship were far from satisfactory, consisting primarily of no less than six bread options (three hoagie rolls, maybe a croissant, and a limp, thin square of cake (?)) from the previous days buffet trays, two bananas, a hard boiled egg and a guava juice box (yuck). Most guests gave the bulk of their bags to local kids. To be clear these issues/complaints lie squarely on Beyond the Nile Tours….NOT with tour guides. On the contrary, the tour guides were the one excellent aspect of our entire tour. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and (mostly) patient with the redundant questions from guests.Show moreTrip date: May 2025

- Patrick· May 15th, 2025Very well run, the Egyptologist was knowledgeable, the attractions were perfect, and the food and accommodation was way better than we were expecting. We would totally recommend this tour to anyone. The only thing that let it down for us was the flight from Hurghada to Cairo on our last day. Hotel checkout was 11am and the tour booked our return flight at 11pm so we were a little stranded for the day. We ended up arriving at our Cairo hotel after 130am.Show moreBeyond The Nile Tours commented on this reviewThank you for your feedback and for choosing Beyond The Nile Tours for your Egyptian journey.

Asked on May 8th, 2025I am wanting to book this 8 day tour: "Egyptian Tour: Cairo, Luxor, Abu Simbel, and the Red Sea (8 days) Return Domestic Flights Included" but just need to clarify a couple of things first.

In the title of the tour and details it states return domestic flights included, and flight from Cairo to Aswan, and flight Hurghada to Cairo are included, but it states the tour ends in Hurghada. Which is correct?
