Travel Review: Egypt Tour, Aswan, Luxor, Alexandria, Cairo, Karnak, Nile Cruise, Giza Pyramids

We had the great pleasure of traveling to Egypt for 14 days from mid to late March 2018. We were accompanied by an outstanding guide,from this travel company.  We were led to this travel company by Zicasso.  The entire trip was built with the help of the company's founder. We worked with our travel agent several months in advance of our departure to figure out a trip that would allow us to see many spectacular sights from Cairo to Alexandria to ask one and Luxor. My husband and I were traveling with my 83-year-old mother. This was a trip of a lifetime for all three of us. Our guide made sure that we paced ourselves comfortably, while seeing everything that was on our travel itinerary. he was always on the ready with cold water, chewing gum and Kleenex! In addition to being a highly knowledgeable guide and expert Egyptologist, our guide possessed wonderful sense of humor and was a delightful travel companion during our two weeks in Egypt. In Addition to leading us to breathtaking archaeological sites such as the valley of the kings and queens and the temples of Karnak, Dendra, and Komombo, he also led us to several wonderful shopping spots including an aromatherapy establishment  in Luxor, a Galabia  shop in Cairo, and several high quality jewelry stores in every city we visited. We even went to store in Luxor which created hand carved alabaster pieces. We would highly recommend this guide no matter what the length of your trip is. Among our many trip highlights was taking a three day cruise up the Nile from Aswan to Luxor.  The boat was small, the food was delicious, accommodations were lovely and service was outstanding. We were invited to attend a Galabia  party and to watch a Nubian dance. We also visited a Nubian village and market which possessed every spice one could imagine! Our travel company attended to every detail and made travel from start to finish a breeze.. Overall, our trip was exactly what we had hoped for and we would recommend this company without any reservation.
