We make your holiday to Egypt unforgettable but not at the expense of the environment or the local people. Concerning local community, We encourage clients to buy handmade artifacts from the local producers like perfume, papyrus, carpets and pharaonic gold or silver souvenirs. So they can deal directly with local people with the help of our local guides. Moreover, we use locally owned hotels and restaurants and their employees are local people.
Through our environmental responsibility, we advise clients to keep all historical places as we found them with out touching sites and dropping litter and we always advise guests to conserve the environment and not to smoke at the historical sites. Moreover; our local staff are well trained on how to deal with the environment. Also, all our modern air-conditioned cars are provided with baskets for rubbish in addition to environmental filter on the exhaust pipe for keep our environment clean. There is always inspection from the Transportation Manager on the cars to ensure the cleanliness of the cars. Moreover, for all historical sites in Egypt, part of their fees contribute to conservation. For example, there are local staff for cleaning at these sites taking their salaries from those fees.
We offer charitable organization for our clients to visit, like Masr Al Mahrusa Baladi. Masr Al Mahrusa Baladi Organization (NGO) tries to improve the quality of education in Egypt at governmental schools especially primary schools and taking care of genius students at governmental schools. Also, that organization helps in wiping out illiteracy in addition to bringing up and educating orphans.
During the trip, we give a brief description of Egypt from Pharaonic time until the time of the revolution in 1952. We also give out information about the Arabic language, local religions and appropriate dress (particularly for women).
Everyone was extremely helpful and everything went according to plan - we both enjoyed it very much. When we found we did not want to go to Abu Simbel - because it was one-tour-too-far with a nine year old, another option was worked out for us in Aswan- Mahmoud Nubi was a wonderful guide, a real character and very knowledgeable. Being able to check into hotels early was a real bonus because finding yourself fresh off an overnight train - with 6 hours to hang around to book into your hotel would have been dispiriting. I was pleased to be able to renegotiate start times so that we could enjoy a relax in the hotel at the pool too - those considerations are important especially when the hotels have been chosen for those facilities - there has to be time to enjoy them. I will return to Egypt and recommend your service to friends and family. Take care and thank everyone for their professional and friendly service.
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
