GBWe just returned from an unbelievable⦠We just returned from an unbelievable 9-10 day private tour in Egypt & would highly recommend Amr with EGYPT FOR AMERICANS. From the moment we arrived, we were met & efficiently escorted through the Cairo airport & then on to our beautifully located hotel on the Nile River. All details from hotel check-in, to excellent local guides who were all Egyptologists, & to local drivers, were all tended to by local company coordinators. We had nothing to worry about! We were accompanied each leg of the trip by friendly and efficient guides & drivers. The Nile River cruise was beyond description. We visited many local sites that were only pages in history books before the trip. They were brought to life by the enthusiasm of the local guides. Being a small private tour, we were not herded around as a large tour group & everything felt personalized.

GBExtraordinary Egypt! Our itinerary was planned to the "T" with everything we wanted to see and do booked in an efficient manner. Our drivers and guides were great and made our travels around Egypt truly enjoyable. Would absolutely recommend this company.

GBBRAVO! We used EGYPT FOR AMERICANS on our recent, private 9-Day trip. We chose them due to reputation and responsiveness and we were extremely happy with the result. Their staff were there for us at every turn and handled every detail from setting up our unique itinerary (and graciously and patiently revising to meet our changing ideas and requests), to picking us up from the airport upon our arrival and to dropping us off at our departure. The staff were all friendly, timely, courteous and competent. Our two Egyptologists were extraordinarily adept and knowledgeable about, well, everything. Accommodations were all excellent and the food was quite good. Even the 115 degree heat (everyday) was made bearable by managing time spent outside. We consider the price to be beyond reasonable for the time spent and effort expended. EFA made this once-in-a-lifetime excursion memorable and enjoyable. Bravo!

GBTremendous service start to finish Tremendous service start to finish. We booked a 12-day private tour, using Hilton points for hotels to keep the cost down. They worked with us before the trip to tailor the itinerary to meet our desires. Everything from being greeted inside the security area before immigration, transfers, and especially the guides exceeded our expectations. Both of our guides were PhD level with decades of experience. Of special note, Gaber who was our guide in the Cairo area, arrange for museum directors to personally take us through their museums. Visits to less visited sites at Saqqara, Dashour, Maidum and others were fantastic as we had the sites to ourselves. We were able to stroll through the desert around these sites and find 4500 year-old pottery shards. Spend a bit more and go on a private tour. We heartily recommend Egypt for Americans and will book with them again.
