“The trip to Egypt was one of the best tours I have traveled with Smartours. This was my sixth tour and everything was great. I was not concerned with safety what so ever. Our guides were terrific especially Eric. The people of Egypt are very warm and very polite. Exception the vendors, but nothing is perfect. Prepare to tip a lot, but it is not much compared to other places. The weather was cold in Egypt so wear a coat . Just an amazing trip. Go for it.”

“The guide Sherri was wonderful. In Nile cruise ship and Hotel in Luxor, there was no heat (there was thermostat but heat was working) and many people including me and my wife had a bad cold. Cairo Marriott Hotel was nice. The coach was tight. Arrangement for the sightseeing was very good. Overall trip was good. I would recommend this tour to anyone.”

“This was my first time travelling with SmarTours and I was delighted. The trip to Egypt was simply amazing. It was a non-stop whirlwind adventure. We had a wonderful guide, Mrs. Sahar Hammad who was with us during the entire 10 days taking us from the Pyramids in Gaza, to the cruise on the Nile river, to the tombs in the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens in Luxor. Mrs. Hammad is a most experienced guide who not only knows the tour routes but brought the history of Egypt's' great civilization to life through personal anecdotes. I would recommend this trip with Mrs. Hammad as your guide if you can get her. I would love to visit again.”

“The tour to Egypt was a truly wonderfully experience, well paced and excellently executed. Henry, the informed tour guide did an exceptional job in balancing the needs of the diverse clientele, from accommodations to addressing accessibility needs. As a rather independent traveler, having the flexibility to do a I pleased in the context of an organized group was truly liberating. The guides suggestions, and attention to detail were truly exemplary. Egypt's treasures were wonderfully accessible, and provided glorious opportunities for full engagement. The Egyptian people were warmly welcoming throughout the adventure, and provided the best possible climate for enjoying the journey. At each point, the adventure felt safe and open. Exploring each city was truly enthralling, with opportunities to mix with local citizens, fellow travelers, and the monumental grandeur that is Egypt! Cedric”
