i love Egypt - My family and I, including the children there old 10y and 13 y , booked the best-selling trip from Egypt Rest Tours, which organizes trips in Egypt. Our trips started when we arrived at Hurghada Airport, where the company representative was waiting for us and helped us and gave us a lot of useful information. Then we went to the car, which was especially big and air-conditioned. We sat comfortably and took it to Luxor, where we would take a Nile cruise on the My Flower boat. Once we arrived at the boat, the guide was waiting for us and helped us finish the check-in quickly. We went to the rooms, which were clean, wonderful and big. After lunch, the guide took us to visit Luxor Temple and Karnak Temple. Then we returned to the boat for dinner. The next day we woke up early where we did the hot air balloon ride and it was great as we were able to see Luxor from above and after that our guide was waiting for us to visit the West Bank where the Valley of the Kings, the tomb of King Tutankhamun, the Temple of Hatshepsut and the Statue of Memnon are located. Then we returned to the bakho and the ship started sailing to Aswan and we witnessed breathtaking natural scenes that I had never seen before and the children were also enjoying themselves. The next day we went early in the morning to visit the Temple of Horus in Edfu and returned to the ship moving and sailing to Kom Ombo to visit the temple there as well as a museum with mummified crocodiles and a falil. We arrived in Aswan and early in the morning we went to the Abu Simbel Temple and we had a ship at lunch time then we took a little rest then we went to Felucca on the Nile and visited the wonderful Botanical Island then the Nubian village where the wonderful colors and many beautiful things. On the last day we prepared the bags and went to visit the Philae Temple and the High Dam then we went to Aswan Airport to travel to Cairo and The company representatives were with us upon arrival at Aswan Airport and also in Cairo. They took us to the hotel, which was wonderful. The next day they took us to visit the pyramids and the Sphinx, as well as the new Cairo Museum. It was an unforgettable day.

Trip to Egypt. - We made a trip to Egypt to visit its historical monuments through EGYPT REST TOURS. We arrived at Aswan airport and the company representative was waiting for us and gave us gifts. We went to the hotel and after lunch, our trip began by visiting the Philae Temple located on an island in the middle of the Nile. After that, we visited the High Dam. The next day, we went on a long trip to visit the Abu Simbel Temple. After that, we headed to a Nile cruise for a wonderful journey between Aswan and Luxor that takes 3 days (we were advised of this trip by the company representative of EGYPT REST TOURS). During the trip, we visited the Temple of Horus in Edfu and the Temple of Kom Ombo. Upon arrival in Luxor, we visited many wonderful landmarks such as the tomb of King Tutankhamun and the temple of Queen Hatshepsut. Then, after that, we spent 3 days in Hurghada in a wonderful hotel with a wonderful view of the Red Sea. We went on safari trips and I was fine. Then, we flew to Cairo to spend 2 days there and visit the pyramids and some ancient mosques and churches. We bought gifts from Khan El Khalili. On the last day, we went to the airport and returned home. Thank you TO EGYPT REST TOURS that made the trip easy and wonderful in Egypt.

Amazing tours - We thank ERT Company for everything they provided during our trip. The day ended in Aswan and we were on our way to the airport. Our trip began on Saturday on the Royal Beau Rivage boat. They received us at Luxor Airport and sent a private car. They welcomed us and we found great generosity from them. Our trip began on Saturday. Immediately after lunch, the rooms were very wonderful and very clean. We did not delay in settling in. Lunch was a wonderful first day after serving a welcome drink and rest. We visited the temples of Luxor and Karnak and took a tour of the wonderful city of Luxor, which is full of antiquities. We were accompanied on our visit by the company guide, who was very nice and had wonderful information. He answered all our inquiries, and the next day we began to visit the Valley of the Kings. We saw the most important and greatest tomb, which is the tomb of Tutankhamun, which we loved to see. We enjoyed visiting Hatshepsut and the huge Temple of Memnon, then returning and sailing and enjoying the Nile River and watching the stunning scenery. We saw many other cities, such as the city of Horus and Aswan, where we visited the most important temple, which is Abu Simbel. We sailed with a felucca on the Nile River, which was also at sunset, and in fact we enjoyed visiting the village. We visited the Nubian house, rode a camel, and visited Berber Island, where we disembarked and enjoyed tea and local drinks. Truly, the visit was more than wonderful. We also thank those in charge of providing service to us all the time and the Nile Cruise staff who were very friendly, as well as Mr. Yasser, who arranged the trip for us and organized it in a way that we had not imagined. We would like to recommend that great team and we would like to repeat that visit again with them. Differently from what we saw in the Nile River from Dahabiyat, so we thank them and recommend

Amazing - Egypt Rest Tours were excellent, would highly recommend them. This is the 5th cruise I’ve been on and it was certainly made extra special by booking with Egypt Rest Tours. My daughter and I had private drivers and a wonderful professional Egyptologist guide along with the special attention from the director Yasser made this a very special trip. We were on Princess Sarah; this vessel had a lovely old world charm and all staff we encountered were professional, helpful and friendly. We made use of the majority of additional options and were very happy with service and quality of tours.

Amazing experience - Amazing experience with Egypt Rest Tours! The Cruise was a wonderful experience, all the staff were so friendly, the rooms were very comfortable and the food was delicious (we sailed on Princess Sarah).

Amazing tour with amazing company - I highly recommend Egypt Rest Tours. My friends and I visited Cairo for three days. we visited the Egyptian Museum, the pyramids, Islamic and Coptic Cairo. The organization of the trip was wonderful. The guide and driver were excellent and this made the trip beautiful. Then we traveled to Luxor and began a cruise on the Nile. We spent two in Luxor which we visited the eastern and western banks and enjoyed the beautiful temples. We sailed to Aswan, and during the trip we stopped to see some towns such as Edfu and Kom Ombo. It was truly a different and interesting experience. The boat was excellent, the food was wonderful and had many choices, and transportation in Aswan was easy, especially since the car was equipped and air-conditioned in this climate. Thanks to the company for doing everything for our comfort and making this experience unique.

👍 - I had such a wonderful week in Egypt. The Egyptian tourist attractions are famous for being home to the medieval, Coptic and Islamic heritage and for the stunning natural beaches and landscapes such as the fascinating Red Sea. This trip is one of the best experiences of my life. I will always be happy to go there again. I would like to thank Mr. Yasser for the friendly treatment and the wonderful stay👍

8 days of awesomeness - My family and I went with ERT Tourist Agency I would like to tell you about my wonderful experience, but time does not allow me now, so I will say that we had a lot of fun on board the Nile. There are also negatives, but not many, because the positives are more and have made the negatives disappear from our eyes I would like to talk about this great itinerary with Abu Simbel and the sunset felucca trip with the wonderful Nile Monument. We also do not forget the trip to Alexandria and Hurghada at the fun Albatros Beach And also the Interfaith Complex in Cairo, Khan Al-Khalili, and many other places that made us thank ART for this experience. It's only 8 days but we felt like we wanted to stay in Egypt forever. Thank you, Mr. Yasser, for your effort
