Exceptional trip to the White Island in Sharm!

The staff was highly dedicated and friendly, and the conditions on the boat were great, with delicious food included. The scuba diving instructor and the snorkeling guides were extremely patient and professional. Very fair prices for the whole experience. Highly recommended! (2 adults and 2 children)

Byłem z rodziną już kolejny raz z tym biurem 2 dorosłych i 2 dzieci lat 14 i 13. Super niezapomniana wycieczka. Naprawdę warto. Super instruktor spokojnie wszystko wytłumaczy i ciągle asekuruje więc nie ma się o co bać. Jedzenie ok na statku i jeszcze trafiliśmy delfiny. Na początku było trochę problemów z odzyskaniem zdjęć za które zapłaciliśmy, ale po interwencji biura wszystko dostaliśmy. Więc za taką cenę naprawdę warto kupić.

Excursie la Cairo – Piramidele din Giza și Noul Mare Muzeu Egiptean (GEM)

July 15, 2026

Am rezervat online excursia la Cairo, cu vizită la Piramidele din Giza și la Noul Mare Muzeu Egiptean (GEM), prin Nile Voyage.

Excursia a fost organizată impecabil. Am fost preluați cu un autobuz Mercedes modern, dotat cu aer condiționat, iar drumul a fost foarte confortabil. La Cairo am fost însoțiți de ghidul Hany, un adevărat profesionist, care vorbește limba română foarte bine. A explicat totul într-un mod captivant, a împărtășit o mulțime de informații și povești interesante, făcând istoria Egiptului Antic să prindă viață.

Am vizitat în liniște Noul Mare Muzeu Egiptean, unde am admirat cele mai importante exponate, după care am mers la impresionantele Piramide din Giza. Programul a inclus și o plimbare cu barca pe Nil, un tur panoramic al orașului și puțin timp pentru cumpărături – totul bine echilibrat, fără opriri inutile prin magazine.

Despre piramide nu sunt suficiente cuvinte – trebuie văzute cu ochii voștri!

Mulțumim întregii echipe Nile Voyage pentru organizarea excelentă, confortul oferit, seriozitate și serviciile de cea mai bună calitate. Am rezervat deja și excursia de două zile la Luxor cu ei, iar după aceea vom reveni cu un nou review!

Z całego serca polecam biuro podróży. Wszystko super zorganizowane. Transfer bezpieczny i komfortowy. Przewodnik przemiły i bardzo pomocny sprawia że wycieczka jest jeszcze lepsza . Można czuć się bezpiecznym i zaopiekowanym. A do tego moc wrażeń płynących z zwiedzania czyni te wycieczkę niesamowita. Byliśmy w 8 osób i wszyscy bardzo polecamy
