Egypt Adventure Tour 9 Days

At each sacred site, at every resort, during every event and every form of transport our safety was never a concern. Tom and his crew treated me like family.. especially the day I was not well. They took great care of me! I loved that everywhere we went we were greeted by the statement “welcome home”! When I return to Egypt, I will definitely request Tom and his team lead my trip!

Egypt is all I had imagined , I’ve been wanting to go all my life . Egyptoria have Wonderful kind people ( that are professional and fluent in English) . They have brilliant archaeologist guides that were so full of interesting facts and information. There was a nice combination of time visiting temples and on the magical Nile water. There were great staff at the amazing hotels. Egyptoria provided clear support and advice when it was needed. I wondered if they ever slept with the time zone differences . They go beyond expectation to make your Egypt experience magical , safe and enjoyable. Thank you Egyptoria !! ✨✨✨✨✨🙏🏼

I highly recommend Egyptoria! They are extremely professional and competent, they go to great lengths to ensure that your experience in Egypt is incredible and that you enjoy all the best that this wonderful country has to offer. The entire team is very kind, attentive and qualified. It's one of the best tourism agencies I've ever met.

Egyptoria Review Month visited: September 2024 Length of time: 19 days Locations: Alexandria, Hurghada, Luxor, Aswan, Cairo, Black and White Sand Dunes Activity: Snorkeling, Desert Camping, Temple Sites, Shopping, Eating, Hot Air Balloon Wow, I cannot believe that I was able to check off a bucket list destination: Egypt. I watched a lot of documentaries about the ancient temples and civilizations of Egypt’s past, and to finally walk and place my feet on the paths of those that have walked the same land, feels surreal. You can’t help but stretch your imagination and wonder what was life like back then. The ease of being shuttled to and from, ticket purchasing, translations and comfort brought peace of mind with Egyptoria. My friend and I flew from opposite parts of the world and we coordinated our landing time within an hour of each other. Although we landed on opposite sides of the airport at different times with delays and what not, we found the timing aligning perfectly for us to meet and shuttle in the same car to the airport that Tom arranged for us. It was reassuring to know that there was an Egyptoria guide waiting for us to assist with the visa process. To say the least, when we sent our picture to the entire group that we were going to meet in a week, it gave everybody so much of a sense of relief. Tom did a great job of coordinating and organizing the itineraries that would hit all the main points that we personally wanted to visit, like a Dendera Temple, Hurghada for snorkeling, Alexandria for its history. We said, “Tom, we’re adventurous and we want to see diversity.” He was incredibly patient, walking us through what each experience entailed and what we would see. We had a good variety with ample amounts of time to rest and not feel like we were being stretched. Our guides and drivers were so incredible! They were funny, respectful, happy, entertaining, knowledgeable, hospitable and we were always sad leaving them. We really missed them dearly. Our time with Mofassa and Mohammed in Alexandria - when I think about - just makes me smile so big. They were SO SWEET! After watching Anthony Bourdain’s ‘No Reservations’ episode in Egypt trying the traditional pigeon dish, I said, “Mofassa! Take us somewhere to try this. I am not leaving until I try this!” It was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Not only that, but he also took us to a bakery and we tried some of the most delicious baklavas and gelato! WOW! Being a professionally trained chef, food experiences are always some of my favorite. Alexandria has an awesome nightlife culture, but beware - it does not get quiet. There is action all the time. We were excited to see some of the guides/drivers continue on like Raama, who is such powerhouse of a human and Adele! My friend and I loved spending our days with them. His mother made us the best juice, too. I love how sweet all the mothers are. Raama knew all the best shops to please any woman’s heart for shopping, which is what my friend and I love doing! We are the bearer of gifts and we were also happy to bring some very nice Egyptian hand loomed cotton scarves and blankets home. Most all the hotels that were booked for us for were clean, safe and luxurious enough. We really enjoyed the massages in general in Egypt, but most especially offered in Hurghada Marriot. We ate like kings and queens at The Four Seasons in Cairo and the Sheraton in Alexandria. The food at Jolie Ville in Luxor was subpar, but the staff and amenities were nice. To make up for that, we were the some of the only ones who could say that we did the HOT AIR BALLOON RIDE! Don’t pass this one up. It is a wild sensory experience! I would do it again. One tip I would suggest is that if you go snorkeling, specify what kind of experience you would like. A private and intimate setting or a more touristy experience with a larger group. I am not a big swimmer, but I would say that floating in The Red Sea was phenomenal. Don’t pass this up. I am definitely looking forward to coming back to Egypt and seeing other parts. Bring lots of $1 for tipping as men standing in the temples “watching guard” will always ask you for money. I wish I had brought a big bag of candy for all the kids. This is a place where kids know how to do business and they’re very charming. They will ask you to buy something and although I didn’t buy much, I know how a lollipop or a small sweet treat would have made them happy. It never felt unsafe as we were always with someone from Egyptoria. Definitely be smart like you would anywhere and pay attention and be aware. Bring an umbrella! They definitely helped take the brunt of the beating sun and pack your high quality salts for hydration. Thanks for making my first Egypt adventure so memorable, Egyptoria Team!!! My favorite highlights was trying pigeon and sweets of Alexandria, tasting a fresh date for the first time, seeing kids ride the donkeys so skillfully, sleeping under the stars in the desert, all the delicious food buffets, halava, snorkeling in the crystal blue Red Sea, hand loomed Egyptian cotton textiles, floating down the Nile to the Nubian village, allllll the temple sites and intense markets, the pyramids and riding a camel, hot air balloon ride over the Luxor temple complex before sunrise and the mindblowing Nubian welcome dance with drums and singing. :)

What can I say? Managing a group of 130 people is NOT an easy task, but everyone at Egyptoria Tours gave their very best to ease every part of our journey, from the airport arrival to the departure; Tom and his team managed and supervised every detail.
