Dear Philippe and Rania,

My wife and I just returned from our 10-day Egypt trip and are recovering from the looong flight. When family members inquired about the tour, we found it very difficult to describe our trip because photos and words just can not do justice to what we've seen and experienced in Egypt. We told them they have to be there.

We appreciated very much the individual attention that we've received throughout the trip. The guides are very knowledgeable and professional, and the drivers are very careful drivers. We felt very safe with Badr (our driver) in Cairo!

One constructive suggestion we shared with our guides is that while we appreciate the details of historical kings and mythology, we also want to know about the present and future of Egypt. We want to know about the fish, crops and plants along the Nile; we want to know what average Egyptians do for living and pleasure; their dreams and hopes. This will give a more complete picture of Egypt instead of mostly the rich and glorious past.

We had the opportunity to get to know our guide Walid El Nuby during the Nile cruise in a more personal level. He is a fine young man, and with some experience, he will be an excellent guide. Samah, our guide in Cairo, is just excellent!

Egypt is definitely different and unique in every way, and it will take a while to soak everything in, but we know this trip had expanded our horizon, and that is what traveling supposes to do.

Thank you again for all your assistance and patience in making this trip a memorable for us.

We miss the honking of cars in Cairo already.

Heather,
Just wanted to let you know how much my friends and I enjoyed our trip to Egypt. Everything that you arranged for us went very smoothly and we couldn't have been happier with the accommodations.

Also, just so you know, the guide that we were set-up with on the boat (a fellow by the name of Ashraf Samir) was very knowledgeable, friendly, and personable. I would highly recommend him for any groups that you have in the future.
Thanks again for all of your help in planning our trip.

Hi Edith

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your help with our recent trip to Egypt. We had some trepidation, as we are normally independent travellers and this was our first organized tour. But everything worked out really well. The tour was pretty fast paced, but we saw a tremendous amount in a very short time, and could certainly not have done that independently. Ayman, our tour guide, was absolutely fantastic, and really made the tour for us. He was knowledgeable about the history, funny and engaging, and went far above and beyond the call in terms of looking after us in every way.

Thanks to you also for answering all of our questions beforehand, and booking the optional excursions.

We had a fabulous time.

My husband and I just returned from a 10 day trip to Egypt. With the help of your agents we planned our own itinerary and had our own guides and drivers, we stayed at the hotels we wanted to stay at, and I must take this opportunity to let you know that this vacation was more than we had expected. It was wonderful in all respects! Your staff who helpede plan the vacation were great, the contact people in Egypt were informed, kind, and prompt, not to mention very knowledgeable and did I mention KIND???

We cannot say enough about STI travel and Sakkara tours in Egypt. You took my dream and made it a reality. Thank you all, you are a class act in all respects. We look forward to working with your group again as we plan other individualized vacationsadventures.

With much appreciation to you all!

Hello Elena,
Just returned from our trip about 24 hours ago.
We had a wonderful trip to Egypt. The cruise up the river Nile, the pyramids,the temples, the tombs, Alexandria were all very spectacular to say the least. What a wonderful land of history that dates back so many thousands of years!

Thanks very much for arranging this trip for us.
This is my first trip to this wonderful country and it is so very memorable.
Was so great to have Mac with us to guide us for various things.
Thank you so very much again.
