    We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. We hit the highlights, had ample time to view the sights, and our guide, Samar, was professional, knowledgeable and easy to engage. Samar was exceptionally honest, telling us when overpayment had been made, and refunding us what was necessary. It spoke volumes as to her character. In fact, everyone we had contact with from the company was professional and pleasant. The downside of our experience was the aggressiveness of the merchants and carriage drivers, the dismal state of the publicly available restrooms, and the excessive tipping culture. Of course these things were outside of the control of the tour company.

    The tour was a great taster of what Egypt has to offer, the optional excursions and upgrades are worth it I opted for the flights instead of the overnight train and hot air balloon which was the highlight. The guides were knowledgeable and provided so much information especially Mariam was amazing and so glad she was my guide for my time in Cairo, she made the experience extra special with her warm friendly motherly nature. Accommodation options are ok, Luxor accommodation was not to the same standard as Cairo. The hotel only accepted cash payment and the food was average.

    Went on the Golden Egypt tour and guide Mariam was a wealth of knowledge and explained things very clearly . All the staff assisting check in at airport to final transfer to departure very friendly and efficient. The drivers in the different cities did a great job in some hectic traffic especially Cairo.overall the itinerary is perfect if you are time limited as it shows you most of the important tourist sites without being rushed either

    I’m not a “tour” person, really. Have had experiences in the past that made me skeptical. Timeless Tours, and Mina Magdy specifically, completely shifted my perspective. Mina first questioned my understanding of Egyptian history so he could figure out exactly how much information he could impart without losing his audience. He then followed up to check my grasp of his explanations. Beyond the historical information, though, Mina’s real strength lay in discussing contemporary events and asking thoughtful follow up questions. I feel I now understand better the real-time academic discussions happening in Egyptology. If all tour guides were like Mina, maybe I would consider myself a “tour” person!

    My wife and I could not have had a better experience on this tour. It was a fantastic itinerary and it was amazing that we were able to see so many things in multiple cities in a relatively short amount of time without feeling in any way rushed. Everyone at Timeless Tours is a consummate professional and we were taken care of from the moment we arrived in Egypt to the moment we left. Our guide, Mina, was superb. Of all of the tour guides we’ve had over the years (and there have been many) I can easily say he was the best. From the moment we met him to the moment he made sure we safely departed, it was an absolute pleasure getting to spend 5 days with him. He is incredibly knowledgeable as an Egyptologist and made navigating the logistics of traveling around Egypt completely seamless. The Pyramids are the Pyramids and the Sphinx is the Sphinx but it’s the people that make the difference and that is what we’ll take away from everyone we interacted with at Timeless tours.

    An excellent tour! George, my guide, was so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I was the only one on my tour and I felt very safe and George gave me great recommendations of where to go when I was alone and what I should do. Hotels were clean and the itinerary was accurate. I would definitely recommend to anyone who only has a few days to see Egypt.

    The tour guides were really good at explaining the history of the sites. They made sure I am safe and aware of potential dangers. The drivers were also great. I have no complaints other than the hotel in Luxor (Lotus hotel) does not accept card payments! That is so inconvenient!

    This tour and our guide Mina were AMAZING! The tour covered the biggest attractions in Cairo, Giza and Luxor. We were able to add on extra adventures like a hot air balloon ride and felucca sunset cruise with ease. Mina explained each site in depth in an interesting, easy to understand way. He went above and beyond making us feel welcome and at home throughout the tour. I HIGHLY recommend Timeless Tours and especially our guide Mina!

    Great tour. My private tour guide, Mina Malik, took care of everything for me. I did not have to stress about any of the logistics. He knew everything there was to know about the history of the sights we visited and he also helped me navigate the clever salesmen of the regions to make my experience as wonderful as possible. Very much appreciated his service for making this trip to Egypt unforgettable. The tour is relatively short, however it covers a lot of ground for those with limited time such as myself. I would 100% use this tour company again, as from the moment I got off the plane in Cairo until leaving again, they were present to ensure I had no troubles with any part of the process.
