If you, like so many others, dream of seeing the real land of the pharaohs, there has never been a better time. Tourism is encouraged and welcomed by the government and the people of Egypt.
Egypt has been, and continues to be one of the most celebrated countries in North Africa. Incredibly rich in archaeological wonders, cultural flavors and recreational options, Egypt is without a doubt high on the list of any seasoned traveler who intends to visit the highlights of the world in his or her lifetime.
Egypt’s archaeological treasures are second only to its people. When chatting with people in the street, in the hotel, and in the shops, you will find that the people of Egypt are unaffectedly friendly. Making time to meet new friends is the best way to reap the rewards of this country. Egypt is as ready to welcome the visitor as it has been in the past. With its waves of conquests and settlers, Egypt has constantly reached out, but always gives back something in return. The key to understanding Egypt is realizing that it is not merely a museum with inhabitants, but a constantly evolving culture.
Egypt comprises some 1,002,000 square kilometers and consists of four clearly defined geographic regions: the Nile Valley, the Western Desert, the Eastern Desert, and the Sinai Peninsula.
Hi Brenda,
I enjoyed the trip so much! Yasser was a fantastic guide. My highlights were visiting the pyramids and riding the camels at the pyramids. Also, the temples at Abu Simbel were a highlight.
I appreciated that Yasser got us up early enough to beat the crowds to all of the sights. He pre-purchased tickets which allowed us to walk past the long lines, straight into the sights. We didn’t run into crowds in the tombs or temples or at the pyramids or sphinx which made the sight seeing much more enjoyable.
I’m glad that Suzanne asked to only ride on camels and horses that were ethically treated. Yasser walked us past countless camels until we reached the camels he wanted us to ride which looked healthy and beautiful. The same with the horse carts. I really appreciated Yasser taking us to animals that looked healthy.
The Nile cruise ship was very enjoyable. All of the drivers, hotel staff, boat crew and others who we encountered were warm, friendly, welcoming and helpful.
I found Egypt to be a welcoming and safe place to visit. Having a small group with Yasser as our guide made the trip perfect.
Thank you for arranging our trip!
Sally

“I have been guiding since 1989 and I still love my job, love my tourists and enjoy every minute of the tours with them.
For me, Egyptology isn’t a subject to offer to tourists but it’s a passion to share it with tourists.
My religion is, I am a Human.”
