- Paul C00Egypt is safe for travelWe visited Egypt for the second time with Amazing Global. They were professional and looked after us well. Egypt is safe for travel….I highly recommend that people come and visit this wonderful country. It’s now the best time because the weather is cool and the tourist attractions are not so busy because of the regional unrest
- 953samh00Amazing for sure.Amazing Global travel took care of our every whim. From the beginning to the end we were catered too. The accommodations were all first class and the tour guides Radwa and Adel took great care of us. I would highly recommend using Amazing Global travel for your Egyptian travel experience.
- AIZ161800Excellent private tour of EgypyWe did a 10 day customized private tour of Egypt with Amazing Global Travel in April, and they did an exceptional job. Although our itinerary was quite convoluted (spanning Cairo, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Luxor, Wadi El Natrun and Alexandria), there wasn't a single glitch in the tour. Both of our guides (Radwa in the north and Aboyoussef in the south) were extremely knowledgeable, and were virtually endless repositories of information about Egyptian history, art and culture. They were also extremely helpful with logistics, which can be complicated in our case (since my younger son is disabled). A particularly nice touch were the lunches, which were included in the tours. We were taken to a number of different restaurants, many of which were were not 'touristy' (and therefore offered an authentic experience). This is not something that I have encountered often, although we travel a great deal. As far as Egypt itself is concerned, it most certainly fulfilled our expectations on every level. We were well aware of the ancient monuments, but seeing them for ourselves is a very different experience. The extent to which some of them are preserved is amazing, given that they date back thousands of years. One really needs an Egyptologist, however, to truly grasp how remarkable this civilization was. We had two at our disposal, and that made all the difference. In summary, I would strongly recommend this company if you wish to discover Egypt at its best. They will not disappoint.
- 928rebeccaz00Turkey for one week!!!One week of pure joy in Turkey. Great itinerary and first-class service with excellent guides and drivers!!!
- L9110AEsoniat00Private Tour EgyptAlthough we only visited cairo for two days, our trip was truly amazing thanks to Amazing Global Travel. From the minute our flight landed we were met by a representative from AGT, who helped make our transition to the hotel seamless. The rest of our trip we were accompanied by our outstanding guide and egyptologist Hoda, who not only took us to the sites but truly helped us experience the culture of egypt. She listened to our needs, arranged great lunch both days, and taught us so much (also took great pics!) Thank you Hoda and AGT for an awesome egypt trip!
- Balleeee00Detailed review of a week long private tour of EgyptA long review of the 9 day trip, 7 full days of touring, we completed to Egypt with Amazing Global Travel. We worked closely with Ahmed to build an itinerary that worked for us. Our first time to Egypt and we wanted to maximise what we did during our week. We arranged our own flights from London to Cairo and back, but otherwise Ahmed organised all the private ground transport, domestic flights, hotels, entry fees and visas, and of course our two private guides, Hoda in Cairo and Yasser in Luxor and Aswan. Breakfast and Lunch was included on all days, evening meals were at our own cost and organisation. We had a clear idea of what we wanted to see having done research online, read reviews and looked at typical tours. It is important to get this correctly documented in the tour proposal to avoid any misunderstanding while in Egypt. We were met from the plane and taken through passport control by Jimmy - the visa on arrival was handled by him - very easy. Transport to the Fairmont hotel with a Nile facing room - nice hotel with a small mall attached, plenty of restaurants and good rooms. Security to get into the hotel as was common for all the hotels. A short taxi ride from the Egyptian Museum or Tahrir square - so the hotel was not ‘downtown’. You can also walk along the Nile - but getting across the main road is a challenge. Next morning we were met by Hoda our Egyptologist guide (Masters qualified) for our time in Cairo. Our schedule started early - 07:30 - and on this day we went to Dahshur (Red, White, Black and Bent Pyramids), Saqqara (highlights for me were the Step Pyramid, Mastaba of Ti, Serapeum, and the Pyramid of Unas) and finally Giza for the famous Pyramids and the Great Sphinx. Each site got progressively busier with tourists so timing and the order to do them in, is important to miss the crowds as best you can. We had lunch at the 9 Pyramids Lounge restaurant with great view of the all the Giza Pyramids. We skipped the camel rides and we only went into one Pyramid all day - the Pyramid of Unas - for the important funerary texts on the walls. Our logic was that if the interior was plain stone walls then we wanted to save time and avoid the potential physical challenge - low crawling, claustrophobia, etc. Of course you may differ. The second full day was the Coptic churches and museums day. I was not sure about visiting the Coptic churches but I found them quite interesting in terms of architecture and history. We went to the hanging church and St George’s as well as seeing the remains of the Roman Babylon fortress. Then it was off to the National Museum of Egyptian Civilisation (NMEC) and finally after lunch the Egyptian Museum. The NMEC has the 20 royal mummies on display that were processed there a few years back. The famous Egyptian Museum has started to see some exhibits moved to the new GEM museum which at the time of writing was not open. However, the main attractions like the Tutankhamun golden mask are still there and the museum itself is a piece of history worth seeing. Lunch was by the Nile at the Aspero restaurant- great staff and of course football was the topic of conversation. Our third day started very early with a 6am flight from Cairo to Luxor. Check the airline schedule as our flight was retimed the day before. Such an early arrival meant we could not go to the Hilton hotel straight away and so we agreed to do the sightseeing first. The Karnak temple complex was first then the Luxor Temple both on the East Bank. I liked the Luxor temple more then Karnak. Karnak was a huge site but we saw similar elsewhere with aspects which were, in my opinion, better examples if slightly smaller. Then off to the hotel (room not ready and so we had lunch) before relaxing by the pool as the Nile flowed slowly past. Great sunsets here. The Hilton again is not in the centre of Luxor, but close enough if you are happy to do a short taxi ride. Nice enough hotel, but not quite as nice as the Fairmont. The fourth day was to the West Bank of the Nile. The valley of the Kings was first up. Tickets include three tombs which depend on what is open - plus the Tutankhamun tomb which is surprisingly small and when we were there very few other people were around - the other tombs were busier. The tombs we went into in the West Bank were generally easier to access then the Pyramids around Cairo - gentle slopes, or steps, and lots of coloured decorations and hieroglyphics. We also had arranged a ticket to see the Seti I tomb - again few people in the tomb, but by far the best tomb we visited - a must see - insist on this! Other places we visited on the West Bank included; the valley of the Queens and the tomb of Nefertari (worth seeing - very decorative), the mortuary temple of Ramesses III (another large temple complex similar to Karnak), the Ramesseum (more ruined then some others but quieter to visit and wander around), the colossi of Memnon (large pair of statues by the road - a quick photograph stop), the mortuary temple of Queen Hatshepsut (impressive approach with the temple set below cliffs behind, less to see once inside), the tombs of Nobels (we visited two and only just as they were closing - Sennofer was the better - very colourful decor with grapes on the ceiling) and Rekhmire. We did not have time to see the valley of the Artisans but this certainly looks good. Our guide for Luxor and Aswan was Yasser and he also took us to an Alabaster workshop - demonstration, Arab coffee, hibiscus drink, and of course the option to buy anything you liked. Lunch was at a restaurant in Luxor called Africa and had an interesting view of the Nile and busy local streets from a roof top restaurant. If you have time there are also hot air balloon flights early in the morning. Bottom line, West Bank of Luxor probably deserves a day and a half if you have time, maybe two days to do everything. Day five we left Luxor and drove to Aswan on the ‘Agricultural Road’. A long day driving but we were able to visit three major temples on the way - Esna - amazing colours on the ceiling of a well preserved temple that was buried under Nile flood silt and now is revealed in the middle of town and below street level, Edfu - Karnak style temple but nicer in my opinion, more complete, and Kom Ombo - mummified crocodiles! The journey on the way was long - but we got to see the local villages, donkeys, camels, fields of sugar cane and bananas, tomatoes being sun dried, local trains and colourful tractors amongst other things. Be prepared for regular security checkpoints - the driver and guide took care of everything - and lots of speed bumps. We stayed at a new Aswan hotel in ‘soft’ opening mode - we may have been the only people there. The Sonesta Nubia hotel is a little out of Aswan town and sits on a narrow strip of land with rooms along the Nile. Architecturally interesting, quite and with great views of the Nile - but if you wanted to go into Aswan then a taxi was needed. Day six was an early start (4:30 departure) to Abu Simbel. The road across the Sahara opens at 5am and that is when all the tours head off. The days of a police escort are thankfully gone. There is a stop for coffee and toilet on the way. 3 1/2 hours drive across the desert watching the sun rise and the lots of sand. At the end is Abu Simbel, two temples reconstructed on the edge of Lake Nasser created by the Aswan High Dam and just above the Sudan / Egypt boarder. This was worth seeing but it was very crowded, with queues to get into the temples. Nice from the outside, probably better examples of interiors elsewhere on our journey. There is an airport at Abu Simbel as an alternative. Then back to Aswan where we caught a ‘taxi’ boat to an island in the Nile for lunch - with great views of the Aga Khan Mausoleum and Elephant Island. After lunch we had arranged a sail boat trip on the Nile for about 30 mins. I really enjoyed this - it was a classic Nile sailing boat and this part of the Nile is particularly beautiful in Aswan town. Like all our trips the boat was just for the two of us. Be prepared for the sales pitch - just some trinkets that his mother made. This day Yasser took us to an Essence shop - demonstration, coffee, hibiscus, shop - well worth the time in my view to get to see something like this even if it is a bit touristy. We did smell (nice) for a few days with all the essences that had been rubbed on our arms and hands. Day seven was off to local temples at Phillae and Kalabsha, both rescued from the High Dam flooding and worth a visit. Kalabsha was reached by boat and we were the only tourists there. It must have been the brother of the boat the day before as the trinkets looked similar and were again made by his mother :). All part of the fun and experience of travel. Phillae was an impressive collection of temples with styles ranging from classic Egyptian to Greek / Roman. Again reached by boat and busier. We of course went to the High Dam which the Egyptians are rightly proud off and also the unfinished obelisk quarry. Todays shop was spices and yes you guessed it - Demo, Coffee, hibiscus, shop…..The smell of spices was added to those of the essences. Late that night it was business class back to Cairo on Egyptair (very good btw) with our last night at the Le Meridian hotel at the airport, and so nice and easy for our flight home the next day. In conclusion: a busy itinerary covering most of the important sites between Cairo and Aswan. Lots of early starts but usually finishing with time to relax in hotel late afternoon. Well organised. Informative - the guides both new their subject. Private cars all the way. I recommend a detailed agreement in writing on the itinerary before you sign up - cover in detail of what you want to do. Hope that helps! Enjoy.
- skK3744PT00Highly recommend!This is a review about our first Cairo leg - we reserved a family trip with Amazing Global Travel for three nights in Cairo and then a Nile Cruise. Throughout the trip planning process Ahmed Nagy the manager at Amazing Global Travel was very prompt and responsive and helped us plan our ideal itinerary. We’ve spent 3 nights in Cairo and can’t recommend Amazing Global Travel enough!! Our guide Hoda had a masters in Egyptology and was extremely knowledgeable about history, culture, and religion, and combined wit and humor with thorough explanations of all of the sites - she was always checking in with us to ensure she was not going too fast or too slow for the group, and was incredibly helpful in helping minimize people trying to unnecessarily hassle and sell us things. It was also my dad’s birthday and Ahmed was so thoughtful and prepared and sent us a surprise cake through the hotel concierge, and helped us unexpectedly upgrade our rooms to the executive suite. We still have the rest of our trip ahead of us but can’t stop raving about Amazing Global Travel!!! Highly recommend 5 ⭐️!!!
- Ludys6800Amazing global travel groupIf I could give amazing global travel group more than 5 stars I would. They were amazing and made my dream come true. They exceeded my expectations of this trip. We had a private tour. From the time we contacted them and asked about a tour they were very open to meet our needs. They took care to reserve our flights to cairo. They met us at the airport and helped us get our visas. Took care of our luggage and the driver Ádele and our tour guide Hoda were waiting for us. Sami escorted us to the hotel and he made sure we were taking care of. We felt very safe with our driver he was amazing. The team are very professional, caring, respectful and caring. Hoda is an amazing Egyptologist and she was very personable. In Luxor and Aswan we had also great drivers and our tour guide Hassan also went above and beyond to make sure we got an awesome time. He even bought us fresh fruit and souvenirs. They arranged a Nile river cruise which was also awesome. The hotels we stayed were very nice. They made sure we were well taking care of and we were satisfied. The team is amazin at communicating and networking to provide us with an amazing tour. They treated us like family. We loved them and cried when we left. If you want to experience Egypt I recommend this travel agency. They are wonderful and the best choice. Thank you amazing global travel group for making my dream come true in Egypt.
- J817KFrebeccar00Ahmed NagyDear Amazing Global Travel Group, Thank you for treating us like royalty for 9 long days. Mohamed, our excellent organizer checked on us every day - no matter where we were in Egypt. We had an amazing experience from being received and escorted at the airport to get our visas (seamless) to delivering us to Abdel, our driver in Cairo. We felt very safe with such an experienced driver and so pampered by the mannerisms of a true gentleman; he is a king! Sammy, our other escort, took us to our hotel and to our dinner cruise to make sure we were happy with our accommodations and our dinner table and entertainment. Jouda, our very professional Egyptologist Guide is a true master of Egyptian history, art and culture; we learned so much!!!! No question was left unanswered!!!! And she is a true beautiful flower with a beautiful soul! When we were transferred to the Luxor tour group and Nile Cruise, again, we’re were received by a professional and pampering crew of drivers and our very professional tour guide, Hassan who made us knowledgeable students of Egyptian culture and dance 😊.
- BridgeA42200Experience of a LifetimeI’m almost speechless! From the moment we connected with our priceless guide, Mahmoud Hoteb, we knew we were about to have the experience of a lifetime. HE DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! Mahmoud was one of the best tour guides I've had in over 40 years of traveling. His knowledge, professionalism, kindness, and customer awareness was 2nd to none!!! I left the region with a newfound appreciation of history, faith, geography, and religious intersections. I’m so thrilled to share with family, friends, and YOU, my feedback on an experience of a lifetime!
- soulcoachnikita00A BIG DREAM COME TRUE - THE MOST MAGICAL EXPERIENCE I COULD'VE EVER ASKED FOR!Going through Egypt and the ancient sites had been one of my top 3 biggest dreams since 2015. When I found out about Amazing Global Travel, I knew I had to book it and go with them. The 6 nights on the Nile + the extra trip to Denderah + Abydos and then to Cairo have exceeded anything I could've ever wished for! This has been the most magical, healing trip I've ever been on! The food was incredible (I eat vegan and others who ate meat said the same thing), the service was truly luxury on the highest level. Everything was taken care of, all our wishes + desires where fulfilled in the same evening. The boat + rooms were really spacious, clean and sacred. I felt like I was in heaven, in the most sacredly created experience. Thank you, thank you, thank you Ahmed, Kawood and the whole team who made this possible, this was just the first of MANY trips that I'll take with Amazing Global Travel!
- 193kathrynw00Magical timesOur trip with Amazing Global Travel has been beyond amazing. Our time on the Nile was magical, we were cared for by the best crew anyone could ask for. I will definitely be using this company in the future and highly recommend them to anyone seeking adventure!
- Tini5555500Again Amazing Gobal Travel ….I have been in Egypt with Amazing Global Travel again and I have seen wonderful things. This was my fourth time with them and this year they took me to amazing places of history again: Sites in middle Egypt like the old city of Amarna, where the king Akhenaton lived with his beautiful wife Nefertiti and founded a new capital on the east side of the Nil. I have seen the remains of the temples and buildings there and the famous tombs of the royal family in the desert. I think it’s a must to have been here to see this amazing place with your own eyes and to feel ancient Egypt! I also can recommend the beautiful museum in Mallawi, where you can discover the findings from different excavations. The ancient city of Hermopolis, which developed into a major city of Graeco-Roman Egypt is located on the Nile River south of the modern City of El-Minya too. Nearby you can also visit Tuna el Gebel, the largest cemetery of Graeco-Roman Egypt with temples and houses. This place is very famous for animal worship and research projects are still ongoing at this fascinating area. Amazing Global Travel was great again with best services! I can highly recommend!
- ishratq201600Fantastic trip to GreeceThus was my 4th trip with Amazing Global Travels. I have gone to Egypt, African Safari, Morocco with them. This time I went to Greece with 2 friends. It was a wonderful experience. All the hotels were perfect: unique , Great service and off course high quality and service. He helped us choose the daily itinerary as well and the experiences were amazing. My friends and their friends are planning to use Amazing Global Travel for their next trip. I am already planning my next trip with Amazing Global Travels.
- GTTO001st class service from the moment you landOur trip to Egypt was 3 years in the making having been delayed from ‘20 to ‘22, and our deposits were safeguarded during that time by Ahmed. Not to mention he’s available to you at all hours of the day. I truly wonder if he sleeps. Extremely ethical and customer focused firm. You will not regret booking your trip through AGT. You’ll get a much better experience, customized and personalized to your needs, than the big tour companies for half the price. One memory we’ll never forget: First to the valley of the kings in the morning and experiencing the tombs completely alone!

Found Amazing Global Travel on the internet and began working with Ahmad to plan a custom itinerary for my wife and I. We were a little fearful of what to expect due to Covid and travel conditions or restrictions. We were pleasantly surprised to find traveling very easy, mainly because of Ahmad and his planning of details. Upon arrival at Cairo airport, we were met by a representative who handled our Visa and checked us into our hotel. At every hotel and the river cruise, temperatures were checked and facemasks were required in public places. There were so few tourists, we never had to wait in line or be in a crowd to see any of the awesome historical sights Egypt has to offer. Ahmad chose 5 star hotels which exceeded our expectations. We traveled in a new 10 passenger van with the driver and a guide. We ate at several restaurants for lunch that were pre-planned. In each case we had a delicious, Egyptian style meal. I would highly recommend Amazing Global for their flexibility and desire to exceed our expectations.

Our family decided to revisit Egypt after a gap of many years. Trip Advisor reviews are are go-to for first hand experiences. Ahmed Nagy of Amazing Global Travel had several good recommendations and now, after my trip, I endorse them.
We were 3 generations travelling so my daughter took on the planning. For 6 months, through email, she and Ahmed went back and forth curating an itinerary that would give us leisurely travel back into the rich history of the country. There were suggestions from both sides till the schedule seemed to encompass the sites that we wanted to visit.
The entire trip, from being met at the airport to clear immigration to our departure went without a hitch. Though we didn’t get to meet Ahmed, his guides were exceptional. Both had done their Masters in Egyptology and were so experienced. Manar was there for us in Cairo. Her explanations were very interesting and knowledgeable. She would caution us how to deal with hawkers and made sure our meal reservations were confirmed. She was punctual and patient.
Adel was with us from Luxor and on the Nile on the dahabiya. He was very flexible if we wanted a slight change in timings or itinerary. He would tell us about the temples and excavations in story form. The tips he gave us for a seamless experience into the temples were so useful that many times we were able to dodge the crowds. His easy demeanour was pleasant and by the end of our trip he had integrated well with the family.
The 4 cabin dahabiya, small sail boat, gave the family the quiet quality time that we wanted.
The chef was top class. Each meal was delicious and well presented. The service was excellent.
I would recommend Amazing Travel without hesitation. Email Ahmed Nagy and he will reply promptly and help organise a trip to Egypt that is unforgettable!

Integrity, service and great value! Ahmed who manages the company is an honorable and trustworthy man. His pricing is honest and without gimmicks. We were able to get a customized private tour for probably half or a third the costs when compared to other well known travel companies. Fully trustworthy!
Great services! From the moment we landed in Cairo, Ahmed's team met us before customs, took care of the visa process, gathered our luggage, and got us onto our private van en route to our custom-selected hotel. The rest of the trip ran like clockwork, yet was flexible enough to accommodate our special demands in time and places.
First class travel experience throughout the trip. To be honest, Egypt is not a country that is easily navigable for foreigners who don't speak Arabic. Ahmed's team made it easy and seamless.
We just finished a 11 days trip through Cairo, Giza, Saqqara, Dashur, Alexandria, Luxor, and Aswan. It was AMAZING in every way!

We had a group of 12 that spent 13 days with Amazing Global Travel in Egypt. Our group of 6 couples who arrived on different airlines over a five day period. 2 couples did additional tours with Amazing Global Travel and Manar before our 13 day tour. This was not a problem for Ahmed Nagi. From the minute we landed, it was FIRST CLASS. We were greeted by Hasson who provided us our Visa, picked up our bags, then escorted us to Samy who provided information and transportation to The Four Seasons. All of the transportation provided was private and very nice. Manar, the guide in Alexandra and for us in Cairo was very knowledgeable and wonderful. The tour to the Egyptian museum in Cairo was really nice, especially with the headphones provided. We could hear every soft spoken word describing all of the exhibits. We then flew to Luxor to sail on the Historia. As before, we were taken by Sami to the airport, escorted through security and ticketing by Hasson to board our short flight. It was seamless. Upon landing in Luxor, we were greeted by Adel, our friend and guide who escorted and educated us on all things Egyptian for the next 8 days on our cruise down the Nile and in Aswan. He is AWESOME. Going back to Cairo and the St, Regis to end our trip was also seamless and perfect. Ahmed Nagi was fantastic through the planning and the execution of our trip and met with our group in Cairo at the St. Regis. We also can not wait to plan our next trip with Amazing Global Travel. They went above and beyond our expectations. Get ready Ahmed, we are thinking Africa for our next Amazing Global Travel Adventure.

Nov 2022 • Friends
I did a lot of work organizing a group trip to Egypt. Going in I knew nothing about traveling there. I had some guidance, but no one could really prepare any of us for what lay ahead…
I spent upwards of 20 hours researching this trip. First, I found out all the ways to travel by boat on the Nile. I chose my favorite, the Dahabiya, and then started a Google search for companies that can boom these amazing boats. I wrote to every single tour company over about 10 pages of results. I communicated with twenty companies. Finally, I spoke to a very cool guy named Ahmed from Amazing Global Travel. All of the companies listened briefly to what I wanted then offered me a tour package that seemed very bundled and precise. Then they were pushy about confirming it immediately. Ahmed listened to what I wanted and designed a custom tour based on what I requested.
He also worked with the budget I gave him and remained flexible about confirmations throughout the entire planning process. Since we are in a time of economic hardship in the world, I wanted to keep the price low so that people could afford to come along. Ahmed’s company was new, so I found him on the later Google pages.
All I wanted was a Dahabiya for our group that left on a certain day and kept a loose schedule. I wanted a lot of sailing time so we could relax on the Nile, and I wanted visits to temples with some cultural stuff thrown in for good measure. Oh yeah, and of course, the Pyramids.
What sold me on Ahmed’s service the most was his sincere passion for creating life-altering experiences for his clients. I could tell it gave him great joy. And since this is a trait we share, I chose him to curate our trip. That was a huge relief.
This trip was absolutely lovely changing for all of us. First class, above and beyond my wildest expectations. I cannot recommend these guys more. If you are searching for someone you can trust to curate your trip, look no further.
Trip advisor won't let me upload more pictures otherwise I'd post a bunch. But I hope you will soon be taking your own pictures!
I spent upwards of 20 hours researching this trip. First, I found out all the ways to travel by boat on the Nile. I chose my favorite, the Dahabiya, and then started a Google search for companies that can boom these amazing boats. I wrote to every single tour company over about 10 pages of results. I communicated with twenty companies. Finally, I spoke to a very cool guy named Ahmed from Amazing Global Travel. All of the companies listened briefly to what I wanted then offered me a tour package that seemed very bundled and precise. Then they were pushy about confirming it immediately. Ahmed listened to what I wanted and designed a custom tour based on what I requested.
He also worked with the budget I gave him and remained flexible about confirmations throughout the entire planning process. Since we are in a time of economic hardship in the world, I wanted to keep the price low so that people could afford to come along. Ahmed’s company was new, so I found him on the later Google pages.
All I wanted was a Dahabiya for our group that left on a certain day and kept a loose schedule. I wanted a lot of sailing time so we could relax on the Nile, and I wanted visits to temples with some cultural stuff thrown in for good measure. Oh yeah, and of course, the Pyramids.

First time in Egypt with my siblings and boyfriend was MAGICAL thanks to Ahmed and his team at Amazing Global Travel. From the second we landed in Cairo everything was taken care of. I also have to note our guide in Cairo/ Giza was Radwa and she was phenomenal. Our cruise down the Nile was also amazing everyone aboard our cruise was incredibly nice and welcoming. Ahmed Nagy went above and beyond to tailor our trip to our needs and made sure me and my siblings/ boyfriend felt comfortable and safe. 10/10 recommend!

My family (parents and adult children) spent an incredible 8 days in Egypt over the Christmas to New Years week. From the moment we arrived in Cairo and were greeted by a rep who whisked us through immigration and getting a visa to the luxurious hotels and private Nile cruise we enjoyed every minute. Ahmed and his team arranged an unforgettable trip filled with history, luxury, and memories. We were escorted through the country by knowledgeable, professional Egyptologists and company reps who helped us with all transfers at airports and hotels. Our Egyptologist in Cairo, Minar, made sure we saw anything and everything that interested us (from the pyramids to Egyptian museum to local restaurants) and even extended a day to escort us on a shopping trip to the souk. After Cairo, we were met in Luxor by our Egyptologist, Adel, who was with us for the rest of the trip. Adel spent hours with us on the beautiful private boat, Soraya, teaching us about the history of “Upper Egypt,” showing us interesting sites, temples and hidden pieces of history. I loved our time visiting the tombs of Pharaohs with their intricate details and all the stops along the Nile to see temples and local villages. I also need to share about the amazing experience on our private Dahabiya, Soraya. We had the most amazing crew led by manager, Ahmed, and head of service, Ibrahim. We were spoiled by the beautiful scenery, elegant yet comfortable accommodations on the boat and mouth watering meals prepared by the personal chef. I will never forget this trip and I highly recommend planning a tour with Amazing Global Travel and Mr. Ahmed Nagy!

This was the most amazing trip I took with 5 couples, celebrating our friends 25th anniversary. We went to Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel and Cairo for 10 days. Our private tour guide was really cool and we felt very comfortable with him. The most memorable experience was the hot air balloon ride in Luxor and going inside the pyramids. The process with Ahmed N. was very smooth and wonderful. I had doubts before traveling to Egypt, but from the first day we arrived to airport and to the last day we were never alone and always taken care of. We got many complimentary upgrades at the hotels and had a blast. I would recommend this amazing global travel to every and anyone. I promise you won’t be let down and you won’t feel scared or in danger. Thanks Ahmed N. for a great experience, we will sure be back in the future !

From our first phone call to Ahmud to our farewell flight back home we felt our tour had been professionally handled with our needs in mind. We wanted to put our own signature on the traditional Nile Trip - trading a large luxury cruise for a small and intimate Dahabiya. Ahmud worked with us and our trip down the Nile was magical.
Our guide was Islam who took care to highlight the majesty of Ancient Egypt and to introduce us to simple but excellent Egyptian cuisine. He was professional and sensitive to us as individuals. I would highly recommend this tour company.
