The best vacation of my Life!

Over the course of five (5) days, we had a wonderful experience while on a cruise, experiencing the rich history and culture around Luxor, Aswan, and Abu Simbel. Everything was simple to arrange with Egypt Tours Portal, and they worked with us to create an itinerary that met our specific requirements.

AN EXCELLENT TOUR COMPANY

Experiencing the High Dam, the Unfinished Obelisk, the Philae Temple, and Abu Simbel for two days with Ahmed Haggag was indeed an incredible adventure! He has extensive expertise and is fluent in English. I appreciate you being so patient and kind.

Flexible and Big Quality

For my first trip to Egypt, I had the most amazing three-night Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor. I learned a lot more about Egypt's history from our tour guide, Mahmoud Nour, who is the best storyteller I've ever met. A wealth of cultural, historical, and current events data was offered by him. On top of that, he provided me with a wealth of helpful information regarding staying safe as I explored different areas. This trip had a lasting impression on me.

Definitely worth it!!

With Hamdy, we had an absolutely fantastic time. He and the driver spent all day with us, and they couldn't have been nicer, more informed, or more accommodating. During this tour, he showed us wonderful, real places, and we learned a lot. Our trip was flawlessly planned, and the booking process was a breeze. Thank you once more!

Highly Recommend

I can only speak highly of my time spent using Egypt Tours Portal. Throughout our entire excursion, our guide Biko shared precise information and was quite educated. He was approachable, kind, and concerned about our well-being at all times. We were also pleasantly surprised by how promptly our driver dropped us off at each location. All in all, it was an excellent experience, and I would suggest ETP to anybody planning a rewarding pyramid tour.
