Wonderful Trip!!

We took a private 8-day trip, including a Nile Cruise, with UTS, and it was wonderful. Right from planning to execution, everything was handled very efficiently. We did go back and forth multiple times and asked numerous questions that were promptly handled by Abdelrahman and Hamad. Once in Egypt, we were taken care of from the minute we landed to the minute we left and did not have to figure anything out for ourselves. Everything was taken care of for us by the team at UTS. Special shoutout to Hamad for arranging a complimentary dinner at a rooftop overlooking the pyramids for my parents' anniversary and for wonderful parting gifts. On our return from Luxor to Cairo, our flight got considerably delayed, and they provided us with complimentary use of the hotel for a few hours, which was much appreciated. They were also flexible to add/delete places from our itinerary as needed. Also, a huge shoutout to our egyptologist Ahmed Nashaat for not only teaching us so much about Egyptian history and culture but also taking care of us throughout the trip. If anyone is planning a trip to Egypt, go with Egypt United Tours, and you won't regret it. (Note for planning: if booking a cruise, ship timings are subject to change last minute & UTS has no control over this... be prepared for 4:45/5:00 am sightseeings. An extra night in Luxor after the cruise would have been great. Also, please be aware that many places in Egypt are not senior friendly, and there are lots of stairs involved. Getting onto a boat en route to the Nubian village was one such adventure invloving a very narrow path and unsteady wooden planks. Again, it's not the fault of the tour company. Just let them know ahead of time if you need special accommodations) Kudos to Ahmed Nashaat for helping keep my parents safe at each such juncture. Nashaat also helped get personalized cartouches made for us, which we absolutely loved!! Thanks to Abdelrahman for a quick city tour around Tahrir Square the day we left Cairo. We were able to see modern Cairo and appreciate how locals live today. Again, the team at Egypt United Tours went above and beyond to take care of us as family, and we would absolutely recommend them to all our friends.

The most amazing and life changing experience!!

We actually purchased a 10-day Egypt tour package for Cairo, Giza, Luxor, Abu Simbel and Aswan. That was the best decision we could've ever made because we were able to experience so much! On the very 1st day there, we met with our Tour Guide, Ahmed Nashaat, and Agent, Mugha Maher. This was a pleasant surprise! Although we clearly had an itinerary, this personalized visit was so appreciated as I've never traveled so far. They were extremely kind, patient, organized and professional talking through our itinerary and answering all of our questions. Each day after was filled with us visiting the most awesome sites with meals included, which was so convenient. We even got to break bread with the owner Hamad at a lovely restaurant on the River. A true bonus!! For the next few days, we explored multiple Pyramids, the Great Sphinx, Temples and cruised the Nile from Luxor to Aswan on the Blue Shadow - that was fantastic! This wasn't everything!! The Blue Shadow crew threw a big birthday celebration for my husband! Bonus!! I can't imagine having done this without Ahmed. He really knows his stuff and shared so much history! We followed his lead and hung on to his every word. In the end, I feel we gained a friend for life! What a gem! ! Thank you, Ahmed and United Tours!!

Nile River Cruise For My Birthday

I did a 7 Day tour to Cairo Egypt which included a 3 day cruise on the Nile River for my Birthday. If I could give them 10 stars I would!! The owner Mr. Hamad and his team were top notch!! As a Solo Woman traveler I worry about going out of the country alone. Mr. Hamad, my tour guide Ahmed and the rest of the team took EVERY worry away. From the time I landed I was greated at the airport to every moment of the tour I was accompanied, I felt protected and respected. My luggage was lost on the flight in, Mr. Hamad offered to buy me new clothing with his own money. Although I didn't take him up on that offer i apprciated it greatly! My tour guy Ahmed was very accommodating willing to accommodate any places I did not want to tour.The hotel in Old Cairo i would give a 3 star just because it was a little outdated. But the cruise ship & the hotel in Luxor 5 stars all the way!! They truly made my birthday a memorable one and I would book them over and over again if I could for all my travels.

It was very enjoyable vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in Egypt and truly had a marvelous time with Egypt United Tours agency. It was very enjoyable to be on vacation and to be constantly surprised at how nice everything turned out to be, including the beautiful hotel in Cairo with a view of the pyramids, to the beautiful rooms on our Nile Cruise that overlooked the water. We were very impressed with how well we were taken care of and the guide was all top-notch and very well informed. It can be difficult traveling with 3 small children as we did, but this tour agent’s attention to details and flexibility in catering to their needs really made it special for them as well. We had a magical time and feel that we really got to experience Egypt as it is meant to be experienced.
