EGYPT FOR AMERICANS Reviews 9

Our first visit to Egypt was an unforgettable experience because of Egypt for Americans tour company! The highest praise and credit go to your absolutely dedicated staff. Our point person and overall trip manager, Osama is a stellar representation of your company's expertise and commitment to providing a unique travel experience. His reliability, willingness, and thoroughness provided us with a phenomenal trip! In fact, the overall staff were very hospitable and there for our every need, going over and beyond to help make our trip enormously enjoyable. The private guides, Magdy, Gabe & Yousef were knowledgeable, professional, and conversant in every aspect of Egyptology. This was especially appreciated at the pyramids, historical sites, and museums.

The cruise down the Nile was a wonderful and charming experience. I am at a loss for words at the exceptional services provided to us on the cruise! The meals were amazing and we were offered a variety of delicious food! The chef and all of the staff on the vessel were personable and amenable. The chef kindly went out of his way to make us Uhm Ali (Egyptian bread pudding) once he was advised that it had become my new favorite dessert! If we missed dinner (which happened occasionally due to the great lunches we had!), the host would send us dinner or desserts! The personal touch was extremely appreciated! There were also great theme parties on the boat!

Additionally, the hotel choices were excellent and the staff at the properties were all great! The front-desk staff were extremely efficient, pleasant, and helpful. The properties were remarkable and one hotel, The Old Cataract hotel had a fantastic old-world charm, with high-quality rooms and high-quality service.

Overall, we had a great experience and I highly recommend your company and its services to anyone!

My parents and I traveled to Egypt 🇪🇬 with Egypt for Americans, December of 2023 in order to celebrate my parents 50th wedding anniversary. It was truly a blessing we has the opportunity to go. It was magical, a trip of a lifetime! I honestly felt safer in Egypt than I did back home in the US, southern California to be exact. The people, the food, the culture, the history is something you must experience in your lifetime. If you plan on going to Egypt, I 100% recommend you travel with Egypt for Americans.

Highly educated and knowledgeable guides that were wonderful to travel with. Shared their expertise in ancient Egypt and also ideas and feelings about living there today. Logistics of the travel were very well planned. Hotels were 5 star. Historia cruise line very comfortable and food on board outstanding!!

We used EGYPT FOR AMERICANS on our recent, private 9-Day trip. We chose them due to reputation and responsiveness and we were extremely happy with the result. Their staff were there for us at every turn and handled every detail from setting up our unique itinerary (and graciously and patiently revising to meet our changing ideas and requests), to picking us up from the airport upon our arrival and to dropping us off at our departure. The staff were all friendly, timely, courteous and competent. Our two Egyptologists were extraordinarily adept and knowledgeable about, well, everything. Accommodations were all excellent and the food was quite good. Even the 115 degree heat (everyday) was made bearable by managing time spent outside. We consider the price to be beyond reasonable for the time spent and effort expended. EFA made this once-in-a-lifetime excursion memorable and enjoyable. Bravo!

Hello,
Words can not express what an AMAZING experience we had with Egypt for Americans. Our trip was flawless - with the diamonds being the service and hospitality and attention we got from everyone involved with Egypt for Americans during our trip. Amr (the lead from the US), Zizo (the lead in Egypt), Magdi (guide in Luxor and Aswan), Gabbar (guide in Cairo) every single driver, and security officer. The cruise staff and captain were super courteous. Hotel Conrad was top-notch as well. I would HIGHLY recommend Egypt for Americans to anyone traveling to Egypt.
Best,
Leena

Our itinerary was planned to the "T" with everything we wanted to see and do booked in an efficient manner. Our drivers and guides were great and made our travels around Egypt truly enjoyable. Would absolutely recommend this company.

We just returned from an unbelievable 9-10 day private tour in Egypt & would highly recommend Amr with EGYPT FOR AMERICANS. From the moment we arrived, we were met & efficiently escorted through the Cairo airport & then on to our beautifully located hotel on the Nile River. All details from hotel check-in, to excellent local guides who were all Egyptologists, & to local drivers, were all tended to by local company coordinators. We had nothing to worry about! We were accompanied each leg of the trip by friendly and efficient guides & drivers. The Nile River cruise was beyond description. We visited many local sites that were only pages in history books before the trip. They were brought to life by the enthusiasm of the local guides. Being a small private tour, we were not herded around as a large tour group & everything felt personalized.

Tremendous service start to finish. We booked a 12-day private tour, using Hilton points for hotels to keep the cost down. They worked with us before the trip to tailor the itinerary to meet our desires. Everything from being greeted inside the security area before immigration, transfers, and especially the guides exceeded our expectations. Both of our guides were PhD level with decades of experience. Of special note, Gaber who was our guide in the Cairo area, arrange for museum directors to personally take us through their museums. Visits to less visited sites at Saqqara, Dashour, Maidum and others were fantastic as we had the sites to ourselves. We were able to stroll through the desert around these sites and find 4500 year-old pottery shards. Spend a bit more and go on a private tour. We heartily recommend Egypt for Americans and will book with them again.

My wife and I booked a small group tour very last notice in March 2021 with Egypt for Americans. They were very accommodating to our request and allowed us to make customizations to the tour such as a balloon ride over Luxor, a professional photographer session, tours to Alexandria, Memphis, and Dashur. We ended up being the only people on the tour, and rather than cancelling, they essentially gave us a private tour! All of the drivers, guides, and consultants were extremely professional, courteous, and nice. Magdy and Gaber were excellent tour guides. Having a majority of the meals paid for was a relief. Every airport in Egypt we were guided through(they are set up a little different from US and most European airports). We were given a mobile hotspot and phone on arrival, so purchasing a SIM card was not needed. The company also completely facilitated our Covid-19 tests that were required before our flight home. Overall, we had the trip of a lifetime and would not hesitate to book through Egypt for Americans in the future to see some of the new sites and the GEM!
