Jimmy made me feel like, I was his favorite cousin who was visiting Egypt and all he wanted to do was show me the best of everything that Egypt had to offer. There was so much information without feeling like information overload, I appreciated this. The ONLY thing.......is that he made me realize that I did NOT plan my trip long enough. 3 days was not enough time. I have already started planning to come back to visit with cousin Jimmy next year. OMG I didn't mention the places that he took us to eat. I'm from Louisiana and I thought we had the best food.... #not. The food was so tasty and flavorful and not heavy at all. Can't wait to hang out with you again next year cousin Jimmy!!!! P.S. Cousin Jimmy is a pro with the photo and video ideas. I'm sure I have a few videos that will go viral
I had a great time in Egypt! Kudos to Hussein Elgabry with Egypt Tours Club, He was amazing! Best tour guide ever!🤩He's informative,transparent, and funny! His wealth of knowledge has no bounds! We had a marvelous group of people! We had so much fun! To our group of friends, thank you! Some of our tours were the Pyramids, the Sphinx, Camel ride, and dinner on the Nile, just to name a few. Oh! Can't forget the Falucca boat ride! With the fresh air, people, music and dancing, it was relaxing and so much fun! I could go on and on, but if you are traveling to Egypt, make sure you ask for Hussein with Egypt Tour Club! It's a trip of a lifetime!!
Hussein Elgabry was an excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgeable. I enjoyed the camel ride and the eating experiences.
Excellent tour guide!! Hussein Elgabry of Egypt Tours Club agency is the tour guide you will want when visiting Egypt. Very knowledgeable and friendly person, made our time in Egypt the absolute best, thanks.
We had a blast. Two fast days. Got to see a bunch of history and laugh like school kids. Hussein was top notch and patiently put up with our shenanigans. His history knowledge was expensive and could go into detail or stay simple depending on your desire. Can't wait to hit Luxor.
Being taken to see sites that would otherwise not have been possible without the expertise of the driver (Ahmed) and guide (Jimmy) who provided an outstanding experience which was reliable, honest and at all times they made us feel very safe and secure. Nothing was too much trouble and at the end of each day bith were still available if we wanted to do something in the evening. We saw the main sites suggested in their 3 day intinerary and were not overlaoded with information, it was just the right amount. We spoke freely about Egyptian culture and people. A visit to the market was great and it is worth noting that on the first day we did very short visits to a carpet school and papyrus and perfume shops which we could have declined but decided to go with it to see what happens. Sure we did feel a little pressured in to buying something but we only did so at the papyrus shop as we saw something we genuinely liked. The choice is yours to visit these places or not. Lunch was at places we would never have found, so that was an additional bonus and we were always asked if there was something in partciular we wanted to either have or avoid. Days 1 and 3 were absolutely brilliant, Day 2 was a 4 hour drive to Alexandria so it was a lot of time spent in the car which was fine, but personally if you don't fancy traveling 8 hours in a day then Alexandria I would say is not totally essential. The weather (second week in March) was perfect for sightseeing, it was never too hot to enjoy and we finished out trip with a lazy day by our hotel pool. Cairo is an intense city, lots of traffic, dust and sand, the people are lovely and we found spending the days on the tour and then at our hotel in the evening to relax was the perfect plan. On a different note I would suggest taking some travel sickenss tablets if you are struggle in a car, my wife and I were fine as Ahmed was an exceptional driver who took no risks and we felt very safe. However do take with you some medications incase you get an upset stomach as travelling in warm temperatures with a lot of dust and sand can have an effect on you. I can't recommend this trip highly enough, if you are going to Cairo request Ahmed and Jimmy and be safe in the knowledge that you will be escorted all the way and they are on hand to advise you on everything. Communication was excellent, time keeping spot on and a trip to remember for a lifetime. We'll certainly be exploring more of Egypt in the future.
Really enjoyable trip, with the most amazing guide you can find in Cairo. Hussein made it an unforgettable experience, thank you for the laughs. We had such a great time.- “Habibi, come to Egypt! 🐫🤪”
Pyramids, temples, everything dinner cruise, shopping at the old market, getting a history lesson from museums. Overwhelm by the massive pyramids. The pleasure of finally ridding a camel.
This allotted space isn’t enough to share the full experience. EVERYTHING was beautiful and breathtaking. Visiting the church where the holy family once traveled to, of course, was emotional for me. Our tour guide, Hussein Elgabry, was the epitome of kind. He truly took care of us ladies, made us feel safe, and protected. I felt like I was in school because he has a wealth of knowledge, and it all made sense. I now call Hussein friend, and I do not take this lightly. Oh, I also made him my Egyptian husband😀. So, if you’re thinking of traveling to Egypt, using this company and Hussein, would definitely be a smart choice. Hussein, may GOD forever bless you and yours🙏🏽 We’ll see you in 2024 to complete the other tour🇪🇬
Completely amazing. Hassan made the experience memorable, interesting, and safe. He was so knowledgeable about literally everything. He knew the right amount of information to give on the tour. The restaurants he took us to were all pretty good. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the experience we wanted. He took us to the authentic shops. I can’t even say what my favorite part of the tours were bc everything was perfect! I definitely recommend Hassan and this tour. He also takes AMAZING PICS!!
