    We had an amazing time! Our tour guide was incredible. Our hotels and the room on the cruise was so nice. I would 10/10 recommend this tour. Highly recommend adding Abu Simbel and the hot air balloon excursions, because they were phenomenal even though you have to get up very early for both.

    Ramez is simply extradionary! Responsible but fun, knowledgeable and relatable! He took care of all our needs, answered all our questions, and advised us where/ where not to go (for visits, bathrooms and shopping). He went above and beyond, taking us to the sites early so we could enjoy them before the crowds and the scorching sun. I was traveling solo (within a group) and as a female I felt very safe during the whole trip. If you’re ever in Egypt, this is your guy!!

    As a solo female traveler, I was very nervous about coming to Egypt by myself. Mina Magdy (my tour guide) was with me every step of the way and went above and beyond to make the tour such an incredible experience. I felt incredibly safe! The tour itself was filled with culture, knowledge and had a very exciting itinerary! The accommodation and transportation were very comfortable. It truly has been an experience of a lifetime- I highly recommend this tour (especially if you are a solo traveller like me and have always wanted to visit Egypt!)

    As a young girl and solo traveller, I was a bit nervous about travelling Egypt by myself on tour. Mina (the tour guide) was extremely helpful, accommodating and went above and beyond to make the tour such a incredible experience. I felt very safe every step of the way! The tour itself had a very exciting itinerary full of culture and knowledge. The hotels and transport were very comfortable. I cannot recommend this tour enough. I travelled by myself with Mina and had an experience of a lifetime!

    My husband wants to know whether this tour has too much walking for a 71 years old who has to walk extremely slowly and needs a walking stick to help him balance himself because he had a stroke 8 years ago. Are the walks rough because one of his legs is weaker due to his stroke.

      This tour has some walkings around the temples. It could be too much walk for his health condition. However, we can provide a wheelchair throughout the tour to help him keep the path with the rest of the group. For the Nile cruise; we use one of the following Nile cruise: -M/S Lady Mary -M/S Lady Carol -M/S Radamis II - M/S Nile Bride

    • Timeless Tours OperatorWritten April 2025

      In case you would opt for the sleeper train upgrade, there would be a tour guide traveling with you on the train. Uou won't be traveling alone. However, I highly recommend you to opt for the domestic flight instead. Hence, the sleeper train isn't that comfy.
