This was a bucket list moment for me. Abu Simbel, Valley of the Kings and Nile Cruise were also unforgettable. Our tour guide Nadar was awesome. he made the trip that much more memorable. The tipping kitty/entrance fee price was an unpleasant extra cost that was given to us upon arrival. I believe this sum should be included in the cost of the tour when booking.

Signature Journeys13Abu Simbal, the balloon trip in the Valley of the Kings, Luxor Temple at night, cruising the Nile were highlights of an overall excellent tour. You made this a truly memorable trip of a lifetime. The train trip was rustic. The bullet train will be a welcome addition to the itinerary.

Signature Journeys13The whole trip was amazing. The order of our visits to the temples was just right. I really liked Philae. Momo was a knowledgeable and helpful tour guide, and obviously loves his subject. Momo did walk rather fast which meant the group was unable to stick together in the crowded areas. The train was an experience, but would not recommend it to anyone. The local extra tours by On The Go were expensive. I had requested lower floor rooms and the last two days was an issue.

Signature Journeys13So many sites. So many highlights. Pyramids, GEM, Valley of the Kings and the boat cruise on the Nile. Hot air ballooning at Luxor was wonderful. Loved Luxor temple at nightfall. Shopping stops are not our thing. Many people on our tour enjoyed them, so I understand the need. Food was definitely not a highlight, but quite acceptable.
