Just got back from a wonderful 8 days tour of Egypt. The services of the tour company Egypt Unlimited Tours (EUT) was outstanding and I would absolutely recommend them. Ours was a private tour of five and one of our group members coordinated with Mohamed Mostafa, the owner of EUT. Mohamed was very prompt in his communications and addressed all our questions and issues in a timely manner, before as well as throughout the trip. We arrived at 5:30 am and were met at the airport baggage claim by Hussein who took us to our hotel, the Sheraton Cairo Hotel and Casino. The check-in was not until afternoon but they got us our rooms by 9:30 am which really was great because we just had breakfast while we waited. Our tour director Ahmed Mahmoud met us in the lobby soon after we arrived and gave us an overview of our schedule. From the time the tour started to the very last day, it was Ahmed who was with us. He was extremely knowledgeable about Egyptian history and was the perfect tour guide. He was able to answer all our questions with ease. He was also very punctual and organized. The van for transporting us was always waiting for us. They provided bottles of water in the van. One of the vans had a mini cooler. I would suggest this for all the vans. Ahmed had our tickets ready for each of the attractions and we did not have to stand in line for any of them. He was considerate about our low tolerance to the heat and briefed us about the sites, standing in the shade. He also gave us enough time to explore on our own. He helped with suggestions for tips as we were still trying to get used to the conversion rates. I was a little disappointed in not seeing any mummies. They did take us to the Egyptian museum in Cairo but I would have liked to see the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization. On our flight from Cairo to Aswan, one thing that was odd was that only Ahmed and one person in our group got business class seats and others were economy. They didn’t really explain why this happened. After we reached Aswan, we boarded our cruise boat, Amwaj Luxury Nile Cruise and the next three nights we stayed on it and sailed to Luxor with stops on the way. It was so calm and peaceful sailing. A wonderful experience. We even went Felucca sailing at sunset which was beautiful. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were served on the boat. The timings of our tours to the temples and attractions were planned accordingly. The food was pretty good with lots of choices. On one of the nights, there was entertainment in the boat lounge by a belly dancer which was just okay. The highlight, however, was the Tanoura dance which was mind-blowing. On the 7th day of our tour, we flew from Luxor back to Cairo and stayed at Le Méridien Cairo Airport for a night. On the last day we ended with a grand finale of the tour of the Giza pyramids. It was truly a trip of a lifetime and Egypt Unlimited Tours certainly helped in making it a wonderful experience.

This was our first trip to Aswan-Luxor and Egypt in general. We were extremely appreciative to have been met at the airport after a long day of traveling. Our tour guide Ahmed was more like a friend proudly showing us around their home. The context around the history of the places we visited and the alternativebsuggestions he made to add to our experiences is what madebthis trip one to remember. Ahmed perfectly represented the tour company andbthe people of Egypt.

Mohammed with Egypt Unlimited Tours was AMAZING!! Our family had such a nice time! He was very communicative, passionate, and always willing to help. Will use this tour group when we return. We highly recommend!
