GBBetter Than 5 Stars Outstanding service by Osiris Tours! Our 18-day private tour of Egypt was the best trip we experienced international travelers ever had. Guides and support staff were top quality with years of experience. We were astonished by the depth of guides’ knowledge. Osiris gave on-site daily staff the flexibility to support guests in the best way hour-by-hour. Traveler safety was monitored unobtrusively, but effectively. Of special note was the smoothness of our care at various transition locations, e.g., airports, lodging, etc. We were always in the care of professionals from start to finish. Osiris is highly recommended.

GBQuality Tour of Egypt We recently returned from a 12 day trip to Egypt organized by Osiris Tours. From the first contact with Mahmoud I knew this was the company I wanted to plan my trip. Mahmoud was very responsive and planned an itinerary to Cairo, Aswan and Luxor that hit all the highlights but also kept things at a pace that we could enjoy the magnificent sites we were experiencing. Upon arrival in Cairo we were met by representatives that whisked us through the visa process and delivered us to our hotel. Each airport transfer went equally as smoothly. Our guides Marwa (Cairo) and Ismial (Aswan and Luxor) were knowledgeable (an understatement!), professional and attentive. They were simply wonderful. Our drivers were prompt and courteous. We were pleased with all our accommodations and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful surroundings and friendly staffs. This was a great trip that ran smoothly from beginning to end thanks to all the professionals that Osiris arranged. Egypt was a fantastic place to visit. We never felt unsafe and would love to return in the future! I would not hesitate to use Osiris Tours again.

GBExcellent experience with Osiris tours Excellent experience with Osiris tours. Very knowledgeable Egyptologist guides - their passion about the subject really brought the history to life. Our customized private tour made the most of our time thanks to their expert advice during the planning phase. The whole trip was stress-free, from the moment we landed in Cairo until final goodbyes at the airport. Highly recommended.

GBOsiris Tours are great Osiris Tours are great! Years ago, I watched the lectures on Egypt through the Great Courses from the Teaching Company with prof Bob Brier. Since then, I had always wanted to go. I strongly recommend you watch the lectures before you go as Egyptian history is very complex. We had two groups of friends go to Egypt with Osiris and both loved it. Mahmoud Gebril of Osiris is very responsive and set up a wonderful itinerary. We had fantastic accommodations in Petra, Aswan and Luxor. We were less than 4 months after the start of the war in Gaza. We felt entirely safe. The airport representatives were very helpful, particularly in Cairo airport. The food was basic but wholesome and safe. Our drivers had to navigate in a country without traffic lights. Our guide, Ahmed Fathy was perfect. Very knowledgeable, patient, flexible and kind. He actually leads tours with Bob Brier and has been a student of Zawi Hawass. The very best travel is when you have an emotional connection to the sights you visit. Thank you Osiris for making that happen for me.

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!
