    The itinerary and sites we saw were spectacular. However, it was difficult to travel in this country as a single female. I never felt safe, the harassment was constant, and the food made me sick because of how it was washed in the dirty water.

    I was very impressed with Gateway Egypt and their tour of Egypt. They were attentive to the needs of us tourists, offering to help exchange money and tailoring to our needs. I broke my sunglasses during one of he many security checks and the driver bought me a tube of superglue so I could repair them. Abdul, Ahmet, and Mahmood were very knowledgeable and friendly and Mahmood gave one of our members a bracelet she had been looking for that he was wearing. We were all touched by this generosity.

    This company couldn't have done more to help me enjoy my trip and ensure my safety. Everyone was kind and respectful, the guides knowledgeable and informative and our special thanks go to Mahmoud who looked after us so well on the cruise. The cruise chef was also incredibly helpful in providing gluten free food for my sister who is coeliac

    The organisation of this tour was very good - apart from a slight hiccup when I arrived and the pickup crew were at the wrong terminal, all my other connections went very smoothly. Harry was excellent at responding to questions and checking in that everything was going okay - thanks Harry! The local guides for Cairo and the Nile Cruise (Abdul and Abdul) were also excellent - very friendly, organised and extremely knowledgeable. Itinerary is very comprehensive and I felt that I pretty much got to see the main sights I was interested in - would definitely recommend the Abu Simbel excursión and the hot air balloon ride over Luxor (be prepared for a very early starts!) You can probably find these activities cheaper if you research yourself, but I bought it together for the convenience. Hotels were very comfortable and nice, with good facilities. Nile Cruise was very enjoyable. Food was a bit variable - some very average and some very good. Would recommend paying into the tipping kitty at the beginning of the trip as it makes the experience a lot more relaxed and enjoyable. Will recommend to my family and friends ?

    This was our first time in Egypt. Due to the known reasons, many people cancelled their trips to Egypt. But we found Egypt is very safe (much safer than New York City). Police and armed guards are everywhere to ensure the safety of the tourists. There was not a single encounter with risk during the entire trip from Alexandria all the way to Abu Simbel. We truly enjoyed the civilization of ancient Egypt, thanks to the tour guides Abdu (Cairo), Saladino (river cruise), and Ahmed (Alexandria). They are well-educated experts involved in archeological discoveries in the country. We were treated so well by everyone during the entire tour. The river cruise allowed us to see how people live along the river. The highlight of the cruise was the Captains Party in the bar. Food was good, especially the Egyptian dinner. There was a large fleet of cruise ships (more than 20) moving together. My only problem was the diesel gas smell on board of the ship (M.S. La Sarah). We were a small group with 6 tourists and one guide so we could discuss the history with the guide anytime we wanted to. The tourist sites were not crowded in this peak season, which gave us plenty of opportunities to take photos and observe the beauty of Egypt. Saladino is a great person, who led us to ride on local minibus to a local seafood restaurant deep in the neighborhood. We enjoyed the fish from Lake Nasir and big shrimps from the Red Sea with the locals. We knew we have to face the venders who were aggressive, but it didn't bother us because all they want was to make some money. They are harmless. Tolip Golden Plaza Hotel in Cairo has big rooms with adequate facility. There are some restaurants nearby with descent food, except Katalia, which needs to be avoided. Overall, I rated the tour with 5-stars. One note: if you see school children approaching you for photos, go ahead let them take photos with you. These lovely kids just want to have photos with foreigners.

    I enjoyed my overall experience with Tourradar, the support staff responded quickly and explained everything well, regardless of how minor the question may have been. Other than preferring a couple more stops on the itinerary I thought Tourradar offered everything in the brochure and a little more.
