Truly memorable vacation! - We booked Egypt Promotions through Kim Kim travel. Our itinerary was well planned although a breakdown of the costs (hotel, airfare, tours etc.) was not made available. The ground staff, notably tour leader Samara, Cairo tour guide Randa and Aswan and Luxor tour guide Ahmed were highly knowledgeable and just stellar! The attention to detail and private unhurried tour experiences made our holiday unforgettable and memorable. We decided to purchase the Hot Air Balloon tour in Luxor on our own. Samara, Randa and Ahmed went above and beyond to make sure we had a amazing time in Egypt. By the way, for travelers worried about safety, my daughter and I felt very safe in Egypt and even walked down Al-Muizz Street without a guide!

We had a very good private driver and guid so that we could visit a lot during our short stay in the region in a safe way. Christine Vanachter - Michael Wallace (Belgium). April 2024

Amazing experience - We had an amazing experience in our trip to Egypt and Jordan. The pyramids, the Petra, the White Desert, a cruise on the Nile, and scuba diving in Sharm el Sheikh were truly unforgettable. Ibrahim and the Kimkim team put together the perfect itinerary for us and were able to quickly resolve any issues that arose during our trip. They handled all of our lodging and transportation and made sure we were always comfortable. Both of our tour guides, Mohammad Kamal and Noor, were respectful, professional, and extremely knowledgeable about the various sites we visited across Egypt. They answered any question that we had and we learned a lot about Egyptian and Jordanian history and culture from them. One of the highlights of our experience was when we visited a small village along the Nile river. We met some of the families there and enjoyed their hospitality. Additionally, the night we spent camping and star gazing in the White Desert was an experience we enjoyed very much. Overall, this was a phenomenal trip and we will definitely be planning more trips through Kimkim in the future!
