GBOsiris Tours is First-Class and Now is THE time to visit Egypt On February 3, 2024, we returned from a 10-day tour of Egypt and it was utterly fantastic due to the professionals at Osiris Tours. Our journey started in Cairo, then on to Aswan and Luxor, and a return to Cairo. The Osiris guides and drivers were with us every step of the way, which ensured we got to spend quality time at such wonderful places as Abu Simbel, the Karnak Temple, the Luxor Temple, and Kom Ombo. The great aspect of working with Osiris Tours is that the staff were helpful from the moment we started planning the trip, providing insights on Egypt that we wouldn’t have known about. It was important to us that we not be rushed and we weren’t. Our guides were knowledgeable, accommodating, and personable and the hotels where we stayed were first class. Ours was a private tour, which means it was just the two of us and we had a dedicated guide and driver throughout. And, we felt totally safe in Egypt.

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.

GBJordan & Egypt Extraordinaire Possibly the best trip we've ever had... Mahmoud/Osiris provide an amazing experience - the destinations speak for themselves, but the orchestration of the trip was perfect - extremely knowledgeable & friendly (& funny!) guides, impeccable logistics with drivers, transfers, etc., beautiful and convenient hotels. We went to places "off the beaten path" and saw things not on most tours, and were pampered with good humored attention to our spontaneous requests. If you're looking for a unique, safe and mind-blowing deep dive into Jordan and Egypt - this is it... worth every penny and then some - highly, highly recommend!

GBExcellent Egyptian Holiday I have recently returned from an 9 day tour of Egypt (Cairo, Luxor, Aswan) organised by Osiris Tours and would highly recommend them for anyone considering visiting Egypt. Firstly, from an organisational point of view, Osiris is very flexible and responsive in tailoring an itinerary that matches your interests. Then once you are ‘on the ground’ in Egypt all aspects of the tour were executed seamlessly (despite our tour involving multiple airport transfers, Nile cruise, etc). This is credit to the highly professional staff - drivers, airport reps, guides - involved in making your trip as comfortable and special as you could have hoped. I also have to give a special mention to our guides in both Cairo, Ahmed Fathy Alsayed, and Luxor/Aswan, Mahmoud Farah; they were both very knowledgable and passionate about Egyptian history and culture, making our trips to each of the historical sites all the more special. On top of this, Ahmed and Mahmoud were warm and attentive and make the perfect guides for this trip. Overall, I would highly recommend Osiris for your Egypt tour.

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.
