Jewel of the Nile - 10 days

Absolutely fabulous. I learnt so much especially due to Saleebs engaging storytelling full of facts. Dispelled so many myths about Egypt the middle east and ancient civilisations. Professionally organised and top quality hotels and cruise boat. Egyptian overnight train was something else but l wouldn't have missed it for the world. Thank you On the Go Tours

The tour was amazing and l could not have had a better tour guide Sherif was extremely knowledgeable and looked after everyone throughout our 10 days touring beautiful Egypt.

What an amazing adventure. The organisation was superb from beginning to end. We met pre passport control in Egypt, which seemed a bit over the top - however, it ensured a very speedy route through the airport. The tour was expertly managed, our guide Medo (Ahmed Esmet) who was amazing. He was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, funny and became part of the family. His wealth of knowledge bowled us all over, how can any one person remember all those facts from the last 6000 years! By the end of the tour we had grasped the basics and didn't feel quite so stupid in respect of Egyptian history, culture and lifestyle. There were so many highlights, seeing Tutankhamen's mask for the second time in my life (the first time in London in the 70's) and all the other objects found in the tomb; Luxor at night - similar feelings to those of seeing the Taj Mahal at sunrise and Abu Simbel. Oh yes and the Nile cruiser too - could have stayed another week! If you are in any doubt do it. Our safety never felt compromised at any time and in fact everyone was so friendly. The country is colourful and vibrant and alive! It's a once in a lifetime trip, one not too miss.

We had the most fabulous guide, he exceeded our expectations. We did not expect to have someone so highly qualified as our guide. The depth of knowledge that he was able to pass on to us was amazing. The tour was tremendous, the trains overnight were an experience, although we survived I wouldn't rush to repeat an overnight train journey again. We will highly recommend On The Go Tours in the future.

We just returned from our Egypt tour a couple of weeks ago and cannot stop talking about how amazing it was. I especially want to thank Medo for being the best tour guide ever. My teenagers, husband and I truly felt like family to him immediately and were mesmerized by his passion and knowledge about Egyptian history. He single-handedly made our trip once in a lifetime.

Our tour guide was Ahmed (Helal). This was a trip of a lifetime and we loved every minute of it, we were very much left wanting more and sad it was over. Helal is an amazing tour guide and you can see he truly loves what he does. He made sure everyone was looked after and had an amazing time. Helal is a wealth of knowledge and experience. We loved every part of this tour from the sites to the accommodation. We would highly recommend this tour to our friends and family.

Wow... totally exceeded our expectations. When we arrived at the airport we were met by a representative from On The Go and that feeling of being welcomed was displayed the entire tour. Ahmed Esmat ( medo) our tour guide was absolutely amazing, his knowledge and passion are un measurable, everyday was a mind blowing experience. He was with us every step of the way not only as our tour guide but as part of the group. Every meal was enjoyed with great conversation and a family atmosphere of experiences. We made friends for life on the tour,we were so fortunate to travel with an amazing group. From Ahmed Salah’s fantastic organisation, Medos love and education of Egypt, the bus drivers,the train attendants the total team on the Nile cruise we will have this experience for a lifetime. Would we go again? yes in a heartbeat. If you have the opportunity to go, just do it.

We enjoyed the holiday and it did not disappoint in any respect. The hotels were very good and we used the ATM to obtain local currency as this seemed to be easier than changing Sterling. All the food was very good and we did not suffer any 'ill' effects! The overnight sleeper train was very basic, the food OK the bed OK but the toilets on the car were pretty run down. (We did expect this but it was the weak link in the package). The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history aspects and accommodated as much of the requests of the party as he could. A bit more info on the modern Egypt would have been useful.

Just returned from the Jewel of the Nile tour. Overall it was fantastic! The guide Sal was incredible, very knowledgable and friendly and really knew his stuff! He’s a real credit to On The Go! overall The tour was amazing, loved the museum, Luxor, Aswan and the Felluca ride. I would definitely recommend.

I would just like to comment on my tour "Jewel of the Nile" the trip was a trip of a life time for me! I am still in awe with everything we saw and did. The group was great couldn't have asked for a better bunch of people to spend 10 days with. Our guide Helal was amazing he is so passionate about his country and all it has to offer! He was a wealth of information. He went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and did everything possible to make this an amazing trip. 2 things did disappoint I think the advertised 10 days is not very accurate as our tour was actually completed on day 8, day 9/10 was just a day wasted in Cairo as it felt we were sitting in the hotel lobby waiting to leave. Sleeper train was definitely an experience! Would definitely upgrade to fly between Cairo and Luxor as well as Aswan to Cairo.
