Samir made a special trip even more special by being personally involved and hiring the best guides in the business to spend their days with us. Samir met us at the airport and took us to our hotel. He checked in with us and was available throughout our stay. Gad, our guide in Cairo is a highly accredited expert in Egyptology and was incredibly personable and informative. We learned so much about Giza, Sakkara, Coptic Cairo and at the Cairo museum and had a great time doing it. The daily itineraries were perfect with great lunch spots and enough downtime to talk, refresh and re-energize. Of course the sites speak for themselves but even better when you have guides that are enthusiastically explaining all of the history surrounding them. It was no different in Luxor with Saber, another expert guide that was respected and welcomed everywhere we went - Valley of the kings, Hatshepsut temple, Luxor and Karnak temples. In both Cairo and Luxor we were driven around in luxury vans with plenty of cold water and AC. We felt like we were with the most professional and respected team in Egypt. That was very comforting.
Thank you so much for this beautifully detailed and thoughtful review! 🌟 Having you feel like you were traveling with the most professional and respected team in Egypt is the absolute highest praise we could ever hope to achieve. Samir is going to be incredibly touched when he reads your words! He treats every single guest like family, so being personally involved—from that first warm greeting at the airport to checking in throughout your stay—is exactly how he ensures everything runs flawlessly. Hearing your high praise for our handpicked team of experts is wonderful: * **Gad in Cairo:** We are thrilled that his deep Egyptology credentials, combined with his warm and personable style, brought Giza, Sakkara, Coptic Cairo, and the Museum to life so perfectly. Balancing rich history with great lunch spots and proper pacing is a true art form! * **Saber in Luxor:** He is indeed a legend in the field! Knowing that his highly respected presence made your visits to the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut, Luxor, and Karnak temples feel so exclusive and welcoming means the world to us. We are also so glad that our logistics kept you completely comfortable. Navigating Egypt's iconic sights in premium, air-conditioned luxury vans with plenty of cold water is a must for a truly refreshing and relaxing experience. 🚗❄️ Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for highlighting the comfort, professionalism, and enthusiastic energy of our entire team. You arrived as guests, but you leave as part of the family. We already cannot wait to welcome you back for your next incredible adventure! 🇪🇬✨
Samir and Mohammed of Over Egypt Tours were an excellent pair. We wanted to see so much and experience as many pyramids as possible. We were not disappointed. We learned a lot and loved everything we saw. From the pickup to our return to our hotel, we were treated warmly and had a great many laughs. If you have a chance, book with this company. They are beyond great.

It’s hard to put into words how fabulous Samir and his guide Gad were to travel with. Samir handles all the details from the minute you step off the plane. I cannot recommend Samir enough. He deserves more than 5 stars!

I have done tours around the world but the passion, knowledge and focus of Samir Kamel and his team to exceed all expectactions was something i rarely see. you feel like family not just a client. We came to Eygpt nervous about security and not knowing what to see beyond the Pyramids. They showed us an Eygpt we never expected. If you are thinking of going to Eygpt you will be in for the trip of a lifetime. the people, the sites the food are just a few reasons and this tour companyis extraordinary
Thank you for your phenomenal review! Samir and the team are honored to have exceeded your expectations and shown you a safe, unforgettable Egypt. You will always be part of our family!
