📜 Tour Program

🚌 Your Cairo Tour from Marsa Alam begins with hotel pickup between 21:30 and 01:00, depending on your hotel location. The journey to Cairo takes approximately 8 hours, with a short stop along the way where you can buy snacks, drinks, and use the restroom.

🏛️ Upon arrival in Cairo, you’ll meet your English-speaking Egyptologist guide and begin your adventure at the world-famous Egyptian Museum.

Cu aceasta agentie am facut 3 excursii extraordinar de frumoase si reusite: Super Cairo, Super Luxor si Orange Bay Island. Au un pret exceptional, la jumatate din cat ne cerea agentia de vouaj, sunt foarte bine organizati, punctuali si seriosi. Comunicarea este foarte buna, am tinut legatura pe whatsapp, am primit rapid raspuns si toate detaliile.

Programul excursiilor foarte bine organizat, variat, nu te poti plictisi. Ghizii in limba română, foarte bine informati si atenti cu noi. Ashraf este cel mai bun, am facut cu el Luxorul, il recomand 100%. Un vorbitor foarte bun de limba română, a fost o companie extraordinar de plăcută. Va recomand, Nile Voyage, sa colaborati cu el in continuare, este un adevarat profesionist.
