Great Time to Visit Egypt. Our trip to Egypt was everything we hoped it would be. Vacations to Go director, Magdy Aziz met us at the airport at the beginning and ensured that everything was smooth and easy for us through to his personal goodbye at the airport for our middle of the night flight at the end. We felt safe the entire time and enjoyed all the top ancient sites without having to contend with large crowds. All our accommodations were clean, comfortable, and safe. Even the weather for our late March trip was perfect. Our Cairo and Alexandria Egyptologist and guide, Tameer was extremely knowledgeable, and patient as we peppered him with questions. He anticipated our every need. Our Upper Egypt and Nile cruise Egyptologist and guide, Hassan, was likewise friendly, attentive to every need and comfort, and arranged our visits to the ancient sites at the perfect time of day to see them at their best. His depth of knowledge, enthusiasm for ancient Egyptian culture and accomplishments, and anticipation of the best ways to help us enjoy modern Egypt made every day wonderful. Together, Magdy and our guides took any potential worry and stress out of the trip and ensured that it was a fantastic experience. I highly recommend booking a tour of Egypt through Vacations to Go.
