On the last day of the tour we went to Abu Simbel Temple. It was a long journey but worth coming. It was a very magnificent temple. Our tour guide Mohamed was very polite, gave detailed information about the temple and helped us when we had problems. Thank you to him. We loved our tour named “ from Cairo: 8 day tour of Cairo, Luxor and Aswan with cruise” with Nice Tour company except one thing. Cruise ship called Queen of İsis was very bad. It was not 5 star boat, maybe 2 or 2,5. The ship was dirty, cold, neglected, the food variety was low and not good. Unfortunately, the kids did not want to eat on the ship, so we ate outside. A ship may be old, it may not be 5-star, but that does not mean it is not clean or well- maintained. I looked at other 5-star ships on the internet and none of them like this ship. They looked more beautiful and well-maintained. Then we got in touch with our coordinator Zeinab and changed the ship. The second ship called Le Fayan was excellent. It was clean, well- maintained, foods and beverages were wonderful. The stuff was kind and cheerful. Nice tour has very successful employees like our cordinator Zeinab, tour guides are good, the tour program is very good. I think it would not suit the Nice tour company to work with a ship like Queen of İsis.

Thank you "Look at Egypt Tours" for providing us the experience of a wonderful and memorable tour of Egypt.

Let's have brief highlights of the tour as below although there are many moments to describe.

Thanks Anas Twafik, for all the initial communications to finalize the tour before it starts.

Thank you Mahmoud for arranging the operation of the complete tour. It was really a pleasure to meet you there. Also, thank you to Abdulrahman 'Abdu' our driver for Cairo.

After reaching Cairo we stayed in "Swiss Inn Pyramids Resort " a fabulous resort to stay. Next day we started our tour with tour guide Marwa to have our epic day by visiting Giza Plateau, the site to see three great pyramids.
Simply, by seeing these pyramids, any one can justify why they are among the seven wonders of the ancient world . We passed through the view point to capture some additional beautiful pictures and visited the Great Sphinx, again a wonderful monument. After that we visited a shop to make and buy Cartoush and proceed for lunch. Then we visited the Egyptian Museum,a certain place to see a precious collection of Egyptian culture and art. We end our day by visiting the old bazaar of Cairo, Khan el Khalili and finally reached our hotel. Thank you Marwa for making our day by sharing the knowledge, part of Egyptian history and culture.

Next day we started our day by leaving the hotel at 4 am to catch the flight to Luxor. We were taken by our guide Mohamed from airport to visit and explore the great Karnak and Luxor temples. After that we were transferred to our Cruise "Ms Nile Paradise". Mohamed was our tour guide for the rest of the touring days in the Cruise from Luxor to Aswan. We spent our evening on the cruise. Next day our tour started by visiting to the valley of the kings, the famous tombs of the kings of ancient Egypt, an amazing place to visit to see the beautiful painting inside the tombs. Later, we visited the Hatshepsut temple. We enjoyed the evening on the cruise. The same evening, the cruise started sailing to Aswan. The next day, we visited the magnificent Edfu temples, Horus and Kom Ombu, and we came back to the cruise to have our lunch and spent our evening. There were beautiful and fabulous sight scenes, including sunsets and sunrise, on our journey on the cruise on the Nile River. Next day we started our tour early in the morning at 5 am by
Van to visit Abu Simble temples, a must visit place. It's a really mesmerizing place to understand how they moved the temple block by block and rebuilt the amazing place like this.
On the way back we visited Aswan high dam by paying an extra USD 100 and spent about 5 minutes there, which we felt was not worth spending that much of money for 5 to 10 minutes. We recommend to see the Aswan high dam if it is included in the tour package. We then spent the beautiful last evening on the cruise.

Finally, next morning, we departed from the cruise to Philae Island, Perfume shop and transferred to the airport to catch our flight to Cairo. We would like to thank Mohamed for the wonderful tour experience for 5 days from Luxur to Aswan, by sharing his knowledge of Egyptian culture, art and history related to these wonderful places.

We would like to thank the cruise team specially the team from restaurant, for their service and meals for this 4 nights stay.

Finally, we reached at the same resort at Cairo and spent the night. Next morning after breakfast we departed back home from Egypt with plenty of wonderful, amazing and memorable moments.
Thanks again to the "Look At Egypt Tours" team for all kinds of support to have this great tour.

This is a road warrior tour - lots of travel to incredible sites. The tour operator does a great job in co-ordinating transfers and visits. The guides are contracted. Our guide in Cairo, Mustafa, was friendly and knowledgeable and gave us his perspectives on Egypt's ancient past and its frustrating present. Our guide through Luxor and Aswan, Ramon, was less friendly but as knowledgeable and provided us with some great perspectives on the temples that you visit.

There are two nights when you have to be up at 3.30 AM for long transits to big sites. The lodgings and victuals are adequate and enjoyable, but that's not why you are on this journey.

This was an absolutely amazing experience. The itinerary, arrangements, guides , everything was top class. Look at Egypt tours take all the stress out of your trip. From the minute we landed we were received by a representative who made the immigration process extremely smooth to our departure everything was hassle free. I want to especially mention our guide Mido ( Mohammad) in Luxor, who is simply the best. Extremely knowledgeable, so courteous and so helpful. We felt like we were in such great hands. Hands down would recommend the tour

Look at Egypt Tours was the trip of a life time. Typically my wife and I prefer to free range when we travel. And yes being unfamiliar when the Egyptian culture was intimidating so we decided to take a tour with Look at Egypt. I could go on about the details of the beauty of Egypt and it’s culture.
However my point is the employees of Look at Egypt made the difference. Ahmed and Mahmoud met us at the airport upon arrival. Mostafa was our guide in Lower Egypt, Remon was our tour guide in Upper Egypt. These guys are truly professional Egyptologist.
I would like to extend a special thank you to Aymn our driver, he was extraordinary!!!!
Thank you to the Egyptian people for making us feel so welcome. You have a beautiful country and your culture is exceptional!!!
WE highly recommend LOOK AT EGYPT TOURS. They will genuinely treat you like family!!!!

Everything was as advertised and more with every detail attended to making the trip both stress free and enjoyable. Our guides in particular were wonderful. Hannahan in Cairo was extremely knowledgable and friendly. Remon for the cruise portion of the tour provided us with both exceptional knowledge and personalized attention on each excursion. This is a trip we will never forget. It was a truly amazing experience to remarkable part of the world!

This tour is jam packed with activities. Our guide was a bonafide Egyptologist. Her knowledge was deep and enthusiasm about her culture boundless. If you’re fortunate enough to get Randa, she’s the best of the best. We saw so many pyramids and temples it was hard to keep them all straight. I highly recommend studying before you go to Egypt. Lol. Three nights in Cairo and 4 nights on a river cruise down the Nile. Every transfer, whether to the airport, temple, or shopping, went smoothly. I felt safe at all times. We were a large group of 17, and at times it was like herding cats. The owners of the company were available to us for special requests. I highly recommend Look At Egypt.
