    Amazing experience. The ‘Best of Egypt’ tour was the experience of a lifetime. Our guide Mo Farid was brilliant, friendly and most informative. He made us feel safe and comfortable. So much would have meant nothing without Mo. His sense of humour, passion for his country and extensive knowledge made our trip very special. Thanks ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! The communications with Ciconia were great and immediate. The airport transfers relatively smooth and anything that delayed or inconvenience us had more to do with the Tourism Police than with our driver. The tour itself is very intense with very little if any down time; late nights and early mornings are the norm. Be prepared for an exhausting trip. Having said that, obviously Ciconia has made sure that as many significant highlights are included and of course there are sooooo many!! I am sure complaint would be made if any of the sites and experiences were missing. Accommodation was good both at the Crowne Plaza and on the MS Tulip - the service exceptional. The hotel is quite some way from Downtown Cairo and the airport so be prepared to spend sometime in traffic. There appears to be better cruisers on the Nile but the Tulip was more than adequate. Frankly, I would have been happy to have more time relaxing by the pool on it. Highlights - everything?! ? Hard to top the Pyramids and Sphinx, the ballon ride nonetheless was up there. I highly recommend it. No complaints. The Best of Egypt was just perfect. Do not hesitate to book it.

    Very well organized from the beginning until the end. We had a very good guide Nabil, he was very caring about the group and knew a lot about Egyptian history. He spoke well English. So thank you for the trip!

    In general, we can say that it was an amazing adventure, which included not only hiking to the points with the main attractions, but also acquaintance with the historical culture of Egypt. You can see not only the pyramids, but also take a walk through the amazing and very peculiar markets. The tour itself seemed a little unbalanced due to the large amount of information and attractions that you will visit in the short period of time that you have. Be prepared that if you want to get as much information as possible, visit as many attractions as possible, you will need to pay extra for this. In terms of food, in general, the food in hotels and cruises is not bad, but the food is more in European and American styles, which was very boring. We had our tour at period of Ramadan and some of the restaurants were closed, so before visiting the pyramids, we had to grab our lunch at a local diner and eat it on the way. And that was really good and what was missed along the next tour days. And indeed, throughout the tour, you can only eat local food a couple of times - this lunch in Cairo in front of the pyramids and in the Nubian village. It is worth noting, that our tour guide Eman was very good. She told us very interesting stories starting from the pyramids and ending by the history how the tombs were discovered. She tried to make us see as much as possible and it is clear that she likes her job and gets a lot of pleasure from it. This greatly affected the quality of the tour. However, not everything was smooth. Not only amazing discoveries are waiting for you, but also a huge number of people who are trying to deceive you in every possible way. There was a moment when a girl from our group was surrounded by children who tried to extort money from her for their goods, which she did not need. It was very difficult to discourage them, but the locals quickly coped with it. There was a moment when people in the market literally fought for our attention, which was also a little unpleasant. Be sure to include the pen in your checklist, because it will be useful to you at the airport several times, and they won't give it to you there. It is recommended arriving at Cairo/Luxor Airport at least 2 hours before your departure, because there is complete chaos and you may just miss your flight.
