Discovering Egypt - We booked this tour and it was a very good experience. We requested a Spanish speaking guide and they were able to arrange. Zacarias was an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable and provided very clear explanations and answered all our questions.

Wonderful experience - Must visit the Karnak and Luxor temples. Our tour guide Reem was knowledgeable and friendly. She picked us from our hotel on time and took lots of photos for us. She even dropped us at a particular shop which we requested and even volunteered to wait for us. She gave us information about app to get local taxi. Would highly recommend.
