          Excellent Tour Company
          I am from Hawaii, United States. I booked with the "Travel Connection Tours" for an epic travel experience in Egypt. We enjoyed our first two nights at a 5 Star hotel in Cairo, had dinner & entertainment on a Nile River boat, then caught our flight from Cairo to Aswan where we visited the Philae Temple & High Dam. We proceeded to visit Ombo Temple at night. The tour guides were outstanding, all speaking good English and picking us up for our tours timely. The next leg of our tour had us on the river boat for three days visiting Temple Sobek and Edfu Temple. The next day had us visiting the West Bank, Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Queen Hatshepsut Temple, the Colossi of Memnon then on to the wonderful Luxor Temple. We then caught our flight back to Cairo checking into the Best View Pyramid Hotel and enjoying the tour of the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. It is important to note that we stayed at the Best View Pyramid Hotel and booked all tours and sightseeing through the Travel Connection Tours. We had a great time and highly recommend availing of both the Best View Pyramid Hotel and booking through the Travel Connection Tours. Thank you to both the hotel and travel company.

          Highly Recommended and Best Experience.
          Day 1: I booked with the travel connection tourist. I came from Hawaii with my friend. I travel to Egypt arriving in Cairo by Egypt Promotion representative who assisted me with airport customs and formalities. Day2: Enjoy brunch at Hotel. Day3: Go to Aswan and was met by guide who spoke good English. Visited Philae Temple and High Dam. His car was clean. Day 4: After a wonderful breakfast we visited Kom Ombo Temple. We sailed Edfou with excellent dinner on board. Day 5: We went to West Bank and Karnak Temple. Valley of the Kings and Queen Hatshepsut was an outstanding experience. Day 6: Experienced a delightful visit of the Pyramid of Giza upon returning to Cairo including the Sphinx. Day 7: t is important to know that I leave Vestibule Hotel and book with Travel Connection Tours which is highly recommended. I will definitely book with them again upon my return here.

          Outstanding
          I booked with the travel connection tours in Egypt a tour to Alexandria, Egypt and it was outstanding. The driver was very knowledgeable and we didn’t have any issues communicating. He was on time and the vehicle was very clean and we had no issues. The sites we saw were amazing and he always made sure that I was enjoying myself. I felt safe and secure and highly recommended The travel connection tours.

          Best experience with the travel connection tours
          I stay at the best view pyramid hotel and I looked through a tour and found one through the travel connection tours. The tour guide spoke good English and helped me understand about the pyramids and the history of Egypt. The camel ride was very fun and exciting. I had a very good time thanks to the travel connection tours. I highly recommend that anyone travelling to Egypt books their tour with the travel connection tours.

          Worth a visit (especially whilst the King Tut stuff is still there)
          This place has been cleaned up and re-organised over the years and is now a much more pleasant visit. The highlight is the King Tut room and be aware that will move to the new Museum whenever they manage to finish it. So our Top Tip is to check where that stuff is first (after Nov 23). The rest of the museum is really interesting and benefits from a local guide which our other other Top Tip is to make sure you have one with you or you'll miss some of the key points. Definitely worth a visit and you'll need 2-3 hours.

          The travel connection Tours the best
          I had a great adventure with mr. Mahmoud. He was an amazing tour guide who showed us how knowledgeable and passionate he is about ancient Egypt. Mr David was a great driver and very professional. I will be recommending him to anyone visiting egypt in the future. Thank you for the amazing memories and photos and serve. A wonderful experience. A very fruitful one . I went in February and my group had a very good time. Thank you angie who spoke English and was very good. Also a thorough knowledge of Egyptian culture for all my questions answered. Myself and my group had the best 2 weeks ever in Egypt.5 star service. Highly recommended. Not enough words for thank you for the travel connection tours. Book with this company. None compare.

          The best tour group
          I came from the United States, I’m traveling solo. I booked with the Travel Connection Tours. I stayed four season hotel. I booked pyramid tour with the tour guide and they were on time picking me up. They speak very good English. They took there times out and help me to get everywhere. I feel very safe with them. Hannah she was very friendly and kind. Please ask for her when you travel to Egypt. She took me inside the pyramids and explain everything. She knows a lot. The tour guide was with me he help a lot. His name is Moe. Please ask for him. I looked up The Travel connection Tours and they had very good reviews. So I’m leaving a review. I will give them a 10. They were great. The best experience in Egypt. Try them.

          Best Experience Highly recommend tour
          We stayed in Best Pyramid Hotel and went on a Travel Connection Tours. When we booked the driver was on and the tours were great. We got through the city with no problems. The guide spoke clearly and was patient. We didn’t feel rushed and spent the whole day out and were taking back to the hotel. The guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the Egyptian Museum. We saw all of the pyramids at Giza. We felt safe and welcome. Highly recommend for tourists travel.
