Highlights
  • Aswan - Enjoy your Aswan Day Tour! Our representative will pick you up from your hotel in Aswan to enjoy a day tour in the amazing city Aswan. Start your tour by a visit to the High Dam, an engineering miracle built in 1960 protecting Egypt from annual floods from the Nile. Then proceed to visit the Unfinished Obelisk which shows the techniques used by the ancient Egyptians to cut obelisks. Most probably this obelisk belongs to Queen Hatshepsut, one of the rulers of the 18th Dynasty and the royal wife of king Tuthmosis II. This queen was the owner of her Temple in the eastern bank of Luxor . Also there is an opinion said that it belongs to Queen Nefertiti. Move on to visit the majestic Philae Temple which was built on the honor of Goddess Isis the chief deity of the island. Later you will be transferred back to your hotel.

Super!!!! - My location was not in their list of pickup points. Ahmed from MyEgyTours support coordinated over WhatsApp to ensure that my location was recorded correctly in their records. The car reached my apartment on time. From my previous experience I have realised that the guide can make or break your trip , Sara - my Egyptologist guide was a great natured and warm person with a deep knowledge of Egyptian history. She gave me a wonderful tour of the pyramids and sphinx. Luckily she was with me for the Egypt museum tour the next day. Full marks to MyEgyTours for their professionalism.

Best services - We did a 4 day tour in Cairo. Our guide was Belal and the driver was Omar. They both made sure that everything went smoothly and accommodated us to our needs and made us feel safe at all times. Belal was super informative during all of our tours and took great photos for us. Both Belal and Omar made us feel comfortable and it wouldn’t have been as fun if it wasn’t for those two. My husband and I enjoyed their company and hospitality.

Great services! - This tour was AMAZING!!!!! Ask for Mazen because he was a very informative tour guide. We were traveling with an elderly person so he was very patient and accommodating. In the old city we stopped by one of the oldest coffee shops in the world which was so interesting. Book with this tour group and don’t look back! Will definitely do this again with Mazen again!!!!

travel - The ship was very clean and comfortable, the tour guide's explanation was very detailed, the itinerary was well-organized, and the overall trip was very pleasant. The weather was hot, so it is recommended to bring your own sunscreen clothing. There were no slippers, toothbrushes, or toothpaste on the cruise ship, so remember to bring your own. It is recommended that the tour guide provide drinking water. The price of drinking water at scenic spots and on the ship is three or four times more expensive than outside, which is very uneconomical.
