Postcards from Egypt

Dear John,

I have just returned from the Go tours' 9 day King Tutankhamen tour of Egypt and wanted to let you know it was outstanding and exceeded all expectations - the highlights are too many to list!
Our guide, Sheriff, made the tour even more enjoyable with his great humour, in-depth knowledge of Egyptology, huge generosity and enthusiasm. It was all the little things that Sheriff took care of whilst looking after the people in our tour group that showed attention to detail and ensured that the tour ran smoothly. A number of people who had done other tours with various companies all agreed that it was the best tour they had been on to date.
Sheriff is clearly an asset to your company as well as a great ambassador for Egypt.
I will be recommending On the Go tours to my firends and family and look forward to visiting Egypt again soon with your company for a tour of the red Sea and Jordan.

With best wishes,

Dear All

I have just returned from the King Tutankhamun Christmas Tour to Egypt and can honestly say that it was one of my best holidays ever. I had never done an organised tour beforehand, being an independent traveller and was slightly unsure what to expect. The On The Go Tour I was on surpassed all my expectations. I could not believe how smoothly everything ran, how organised your team was and how effortless it all was. We had a packed schedule but it never felt like we were in a rush and the balance of free time, relaxing and sightseeing was perfect. I was also very impressed with the very high standard of our accommodation.

We were extremely lucky to have had Ramony Ayoub as our tour guide. Words do not do him justice at all. His knowledge, obvious enthusiasm and passion for his subject matter (not to mention his many stories!) were infectious and really made Egypt come alive for all of us. I really enjoyed learning about both past and present Egypt - I came away knowing more than I had expected to learn. Ramony always had time for a chat and a cup of tea but was also incredibly professional. I always felt really relaxed with Ramony around as I knew things would run smoothly - there was not need for us to think at all! What a perfect thing for a holiday!

Without a doubt Ramony played a major part in the enjoyment of our holiday. He is a true asset to your company. Thank you once again. I will definitely be booking with On The Go again and I will definitely be visiting Egypt again!

Regards,

Hi Kelly,

Just letting you know my King Ramses tour was absolutely fantastic - I loved the whole tour, it was very well organised and the tour leaders over there are brilliant. I only wish I got to stay longer in Dahab, I could've easily spent another week there. We spent way too much money being taken by those adorable Bedouin girls - guess they can spot a soft target from a mile away!

Again, thanks so much for your help and for recommending the tour. I look forward to my next On-The-Go experience.

Cheers!

I throughoutly enjoyed the Nile experience. Our tour guide was friendly, fun and also very knowledgeable - he had the answers to all our questions, even the silly ones ;)
I am going to Jordan with On the Go in couple of months and I know I won't be disappointed.
Thanks a million!

I have just returned from a trip on your Egypt King Tut tour and I had such a great time I felt compelled to just send a quick email to let you know!

After living in London for nearly 4 years now I have been on many holidays to lots of different counties, and I can honestly the trip to Egypt now ranks at the top of the list. The sights, history and people were quite simply amazing!

I also think it is worth making a special mention to our tour leader and guide Sam. Not only was his knowledge and organisation first rate, but his enthusiasm, and sense of humour was fantastic. On some of the early morning starts when everyone was sitting on the bus a little downcast due to the hour of the morning, to see Sam bounding in with a huge smile on his face talking enthusiastically about the day ahead really lifted the whole group.

In years to come I will be able to look back on this trip, and reminisce about the amazing sights of Egypt and the friends (including our guide Sam!) I have made. You have now got yourselves an un-official sales rep as I am telling all my fiends that that should be going to Egypt now.

Thanks and regards,

Ryan,
My daughters and I returned from Egypt on Jan 6th and I wanted to thank you so much for a marvelous time.
The service we received from everyone was exemplary but I particularly wanted to mention Gasser in Cairo, he took such good care of us !! The entire trip was one great experience after another and we LOVED every minute of it.
We will be using On the Go again and are already thinking maybe Nepal next time !!!
Best wishes for a Happy New Year.
Jennifer, Cathryn and Allison

Dear Jane,
I just wanted to let you know what a fabulous "On the Go" trip to Egypt we had last month. Our family (myself, my husband and our two girls, aged 13 and 10) had a tailor made tour and it was easily the best holiday we have had.
We were met at the Cairo airport by our representative Tamer (Tom), who is an absolute credit to your organisation. Nothing was too much trouble for him. We truly felt like we were the only people he was looking after. He organised for our bags to be held at the hotel, told us stories on our drives and entertained our girls while we were waiting around.
Our guide in Cairo, Michael, was also excellent. He had so much knowlege and looked after us very well.
When we arrived in Aswan our guide was Emad (I think that is how you spell it). He was absoultely wonderful. He even took us out for Christmas lunch after he was supposed to have finished work. His knowledge was also fantastic and he really helped a lot of the history come to life, especially for the children.
We had such a wonderful time and have many memories.

We would definitely recommend On the Go to others. This was our first organised tour anywhere and we are so please that we went with On the Go.
The staff in Egypt are very professional, the hotels were fantastic (the pyramid and Nile views were amazing) and the itinerary was perfect.
Thank you for helping us to get organised at the last minute.

Dear Charlie

Not been back long from Egypt. Thank you for your services. Egypt was fab and so much better than we expected especially after having been to India last year!

One comment I would strongly like to make is the tour guide that we had in Luxor (who came with us to Aswan and on the Felucca)...Ahmed ABOUDI. I think that he is a freelance guide. Having travelled quite a bit and undergone tailor made trips with other companies in various countries...he was by far the most enthusiastic, knowledgeable and personable travelling guide and companion throughout out part of the tour. Nothing was too much trouble, he had studied egyptology and was passionate about his country and history. His enthusiasm was infectious. We cannot recommend him highly enough.

Thank you once again.
