GBSmoothest Trip to Egypt We would rate our whole experience with Osiris Tours as a 5/5! Everything was so smooth-- from the planning stages of creating our personalized itinerary almost a year out to our first airport pick-up to the last, all the guides (Mohamed, Khalaf, and Sam), drivers, airport reps, etc. were kind, timely, informative, and helpful. They made us feel safe and well taken care of the entire time and were always willing to integrate our personal wants into the trip. When it surprisingly rained one day in Aswan, they worked to fit our planned activities into other days while also making that day itself enjoyable through last-minute museum and market trips. All our accommodations were lovely and helpful when it came to arranging early box breakfasts and shuttle transportation. Mahmoud was also extremely responsive to emails throughout the process and quickly answered our questions, which we so appreciated. We certainly recommend their business!

AUIncredible holiday experience with Osiris Tours Osiris Tours gave us the most special and memorable experience of Egypt. From the initial contact, to the planning, during the trip and afterwards. Everything was meticulously planned. I can't speak highly enough of Mahmoud and his team. Read all the other reviews on TripAdvisor, Google etc (I've posted longer ones elsewhere because Mahmoud and his team deserve the recognition!) to see how much everyone absolutely loved their experience with Osiris Tours.

GBOverall it was wonderful! Overall it was wonderful! We loved our tour guides: Marwa Khater in Cairo and Mahmoud Farah in Aswan and Luxor. Marwa is an excellent photographer and felt like a welcoming aunt. She was super passionate about everything. Mahmoud has a great sense of humor and is very kind. He had some Egyptian money for us to borrow for the restrooms. Both guides were extremely knowledgeable. We immensely enjoyed talking to them about modern Egyptian culture and daily life. They were also interested in our personal lives too. Every hotel had its perks. They all had security measures to keep us safe. The hotels in Cairo were very accessible. We loved the food and surrounding environment of Movenpick. Jolie Ville had beautiful landscaping and the zoo was very fun. The tour guides were fantastic and friendly. The biggest takeaway was that we felt safe the entire time we were with our talented guides. We were told that Egypt is the safest Middle Eastern country and we could feel that too. They made the trip smooth with great suggestions to make the most of our time, the best shops, and when to avoid major crowds from other cruises and big tour groups. Our trip included great adventure at the beginning and we also had time to relax towards the end of the trip. Osiris Tours compiled a great personalized itinerary for us. You won’t regret booking them! Tips: Ask if water and snacks will be provided & the amount of downtime you'll have between traveling and the excursions. Wear comfy shoes & hat!

GBOnce in a lifetime trip to Egypt and Jordan We recently returned from a trip to Egypt and Jordan and nothing but great things to say about Osiris Tours. Having a expert guide and a driver dedicated to the two of us made the trip far different than getting on a bus with a herd of other tourists. Our Osiris private guide for the first stage of our tour in Cairo was Egyptologist who obtained his degree just down the street from the Egyptian Museum. His knowledge of the pyramids, the Egyptian museum and the thousands of years of Egyptian history was extensive and he presented it in an understandable and interesting manner. We also greatly enjoyed our time with “Hotep” in Aswan and Luxor. The way he led us through the Philae Temple, Kom Ombo Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Queens, Karnak Temple and many other sites showed his passion and pride in Egyptian history. He made our trip to Egypt very special. All of our accommodations were top rate, we absolutely loved the Old Cataract Hotel and the suite overlooking the Nile River. The itinerary kept us active but also provided some time to relax which was much appreciated. We especially enjoyed the balloon ride in Luxor, a once in a lifetime experience with extremely professional pilot and ground crew. Adding on Jordan and the World Heritage Site of Petra was also a fantastic experience. Despite everything going on in the world, we felt extremely safe with our drivers and guides who took great care of us. I would rate Osiris Tours five stars and highly recommend Mahmoud and his team if you are planning a trip to Egypt and Jordan.

GBMeticulously Planned, Awesome Experience, No Stress! My husband and I spent a few days in Cairo on our honeymoon in September of 2023 and we couldn't have been happier with our decision to go with Osiris! Absolutely every detail was accounted for, from the time we landed to the time we left. Our accommodations were beautiful, right on the Nile with a view of the pyramids from our balcony. Our tour guide, Marwa, was absolutely incredible. She's SO knowledgeable and kind and took the most amazing pictures of us and of the scenery. The two days we were there were a great mix of historical sites and artisan shops - the days were busy and full, but I can't imagine not experiencing a single part of them! We opted for the food tour after seeing the pyramids, which I would highly recommend. It was so fun to see some of Cairo outside of the more touristy locations! Our only regret is that we could only stay for two full days of touring; we would have loved to see Luxor, but I guess that will have to wait for when we come back!
