Aug 12, 2025Egypt Tours Gate – Best tour operator in Egypt! Ibrahim and Egypt Tours Gate were recommended to us by happy customers, and I highly recommend them to anyone thinking of touring Egypt. Everything for our trip went perfectly, from planning to airport transfers, drivers, boat captains, and especially our guides and expert Egyptologists, Ahmed and Peter who were sooo knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. It all made for a thoroughly enjoyable holiday that we will talk about for years to come! Thanks everyone! Our trip was customised by Ibrahim, to meet our preferences for places to visit, and our schedule, so we skipped Hurghada, and added Abu Simbel, and a balloon ride over the valley of the kings, and ended with a day trip to Alexandria, while also taking in all the ‘usual’ sites in and around Cairo, Giza, Aswan, Luxor, plus an overnight on a felucca where we played cards under the stars, while enjoying delicious Egyptian food, and next morning watched ibis fishing in the Nile as the sun came up; such memories! There were suggestions to cancel or defer the trip because of the trouble in Gaza which has a border with Egypt, but our trip brought us no-where near that conflict. We travelled from Alexandria on the Med coast all the way down to Abu Simbel, 40 km from the border with Sudan, and while we saw security at the entrance to all sites, it only served to make us feel safer, and the Egyptian people everywhere were friendly and welcoming. An amazing, unforgettable vacation. Thanks again.
