I booked a 6 days tour through Cairo and Luxor with One Nation Travel. It was an amazing week from different perspectives: quick and very friendly communication, excellent travel logistics (all guides and drivers where perfectly prepared and on time; very save driving) and really excellent guides. Even with the challenge to work during Ramadan, they shared their knowledge and passion about the egyptian history with me in a very kind way. I learned so much in this 6 days, amazing. Not only about the history, we also discussed a lot of things that are important today. If you book this tour, make sure you have at least one day with Hend as a guide. She is the best tour guide I ever met. The local organization with Mohamed also went perfectly. So, I can recommend it 100%!
