We left this summer 2018 between the end of July and the beginning of August in Egypt for a family holiday with our 4 teenage children.
The search for an agency took a long time because we generally found the prices very high. And we don't trust several local agencies found on the Internet.
We have retained the TERRA TRIPS agency. Because they showed a lot of seriousness in our exchanges by email. In addition, they are flexible and attentive to our travel wishes.
The price is not the best and remained high. But the proposal seemed to us to be the best value for money.
However, it is true that sending a deposit can be scary... We are taken care of upon our arrival by plane in Cairo and throughout the stay. Entry formalities into the country, stay in Cairo. Then stay in Luxor and journey to Hurghada where we followed up with a stay organized by ourselves.
A special greeting for the Cairo guide, Ali. Present from morning until evening. Also very cultured and knew how to remain discreet and flexible with schedules. A truly beautiful meeting.
Overall, Egypt is an incredible country to visit and Amro always knew how to stay in touch with us to ensure that the stay went smoothly. We never felt unsafe during our visits. For the Egyptians, it is a shame that there are not more tourists! Have a good trip!
Luxor and its surroundings
Luxor is a must when traveling to Egypt. It is located on the site of ancient Thebes, capital of the pharaohs at the height of their power. Do not miss the visit of Luxor during your next trip to Egypt. It is built around two enormous ancient monuments: the elegant temple of Luxor and the temple of Karnak. The royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens are on the west bank of the river, as well as the Valley of Nobles, the Temple of Hatshepsut, the Village of the Craftsmen, and further south the Temples of Edfu and Kom Ombo .
