Magical New Year

I traveled with my husband to Egypt for the New Year and we spend New Year's Eve on the Nile. It was truly magical.

Christmas in Egypt

We had a great time over Christmas and New Year in Egypt. There's just something about the Nile and no better way to experience it than with Ahmed. Caring, knowledgeable, and very professional are the words I would use to describe him.

Wonderful vacation
, 2/3/12
Egypt has always been on my list of places to visit. When planning our Christmas 2011 / New Year 2012 vacation, we took a colleague's recommendation to contact Memphis Tours to assist us. From my first contact with Fattoush Saad through NewYear's Day when we left Egypt, we were treated with exceptional service, kindness and professionalism. Fattoush handled all of our travel arrangements - and my last-minute changes - easily and with no difficulty. The hotel in Cairo was great and the Nile cruise was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I wanted to especially thank Ahmed Rezk for his expertise and graciousness as our guide from Aswan to Luxor. His knowledge of Egypt and Egyptian history was extensive and he had such patience with all of us as we stopped to take photos, talk and buy items from the souq and markets. He kept us informed of our schedule and spent a lot of time making sure that each person was relaxed and having fun. Our guide in Cairo, Ahmed Farahat, was also very professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Memphis Tours to anyone planning a trip to Egypt. In fact, five of my colleagues have just booked a tour with Memphis Tours and I know they will be just as pleased as me in the quality of they tour they will receive. If you get the chance, take the hot air balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings. Amazing!

The 6 days we toured Egypt we felt safe and appreciated by all the Egyptians we talked to. Fatima Sayed coordinated our trip very well. The Pyramids, Tombs and Temples were incredible. A trip of a lifetime.
