Voyage en Egypte du 14 au 21 octobre 2025 Malgré des changements de dernière minute dus à la fermeture du Grand Musée Egyptien et à quelques demandes personnelles, l'organisation s'est montrée à la hauteur et notre guide accompagnatrice une véritable amie t Tout s'est très bien passé. Nous pensons réutiliser Tripianto pour une autre visite en Egypte.

An Amazing Rhine River cruise on Scenic This was an amazing experience. It was our first river cruise and Scenic really hit it out of the park! The boat was beautiful, crew did everything to make our experience memorable, dining was Michelin-star quality and service. Excursions each day were very interesting and well organized. We visited two of the great European cathedrals in Strasbourg and Cologne, spent a morning basking in a spa at Baden Baden, and toured a 9th generation winery along the Moselle river. A highlight was a series of four talks by historian and author Robert Watson. He was very interesting and engaging. If we take another river cruise, it will definitely be on Scenic, and we would highly recommend this line and this cruise.

Good experience I had a great experience that was truly well worth it. Our guide, Ahmed, was exceptional—his knowledge and insights made a significant difference in our visit. He provided valuable advice and expertly guided us through the Cairo Tower and the surrounding city, enhancing our understanding of the local culture and history. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to explore Cairo!

Take this tour!! I highly recommend this tour!!! We saw the Cairo nightlife in addition to tasting amazing food that we never would’ve been able to order on our own. We took a break at one point to sit outside at a colorful cafe and drink traditional mint tea. Our guide was the nicest guy!!!

Arqueología, historia del islam, el Desierto Blanco. Viajesazo Contraté un viaje con esta agencia. Mi asesor Ahmed Khaled estuvo increíblmente atento antes, durante y después del viaje, se adaptó a todas las necesidades y especificaciones que pedimos, así como se ajustó al presupuesto que teníamos. Todos los días nos escribió para preguntarnos si estábamos contentos con el servicio y nos daba explicaciones de qué continuaría. Los guías me parecieron excelnte, especialmente uno llamado Hazem, buenísimo para la parte de Luxor a Aswan. Recomiendo especialmente el viaje al desierto blanco y negro, una experiencia totalmente de Egitpo, dunas, vimos camellos libres, el campamento Sharazada fue impresionante, la comida. Recomiendo el conductor Essam Salah que domina el manejo en dunas y se trepa a todos lados por unas rutas impresionantes.

Cairo in 2 days - experience for a lifetime We booked a 2 days private trip to see the highlights of Cairo, and we could see all the important sites without hurry. Mahmoud, our guide was telling all the historical details, he is very professional in egyptian history and he was very kind and friendly. Big plus that he also offered us a drink one day, and a tea on the other. The only negative experience was that we were forced to visit some shops to buy things (papyrus, parfume, souvenir), and we felt like that we have to buy something in order not to be considered rude. I would suggest to focus on the historical parts and dont involve clients in such awkward situations. Apart from this the 2 days were 10/10.

Before You Book

The questions travelers ask most before their first trip to Egypt.

What should you not miss in Egypt?

You can’t miss the awe-inspiring Pyramids of Giza—they are one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World! Additionally, the Temple of Karnak and the Valley of the Kings in Luxor offer an unmatched glimpse into Egypt’s rich history. And if you’re near the Red Sea, don’t miss a chance to explore the vibrant marine life in Sharm El Sheikh or Hurghada.

What is the prettiest place in Egypt?

Siwa Oasis is often regarded as one of Egypt’s most stunning locations. Nestled in the Western Desert, it offers lush landscapes, crystal-clear springs, and the mesmerizing Temple of the Oracle, where Alexander the Great once sought divine advice. It’s a tranquil escape with an otherworldly beauty.

What are the unspoken rules in Egypt?

In Egypt, modesty is key—especially in rural areas. Dress conservatively to respect local customs, covering shoulders and knees, particularly in religious places. Public displays of affection are generally frowned upon, and it’s considered impolite to rush people, especially in the context of business or social gatherings.

Can I kiss in public in Egypt?

While kissing in public isn’t illegal, it is generally frowned upon and considered inappropriate, especially in conservative areas. It’s best to save any displays of affection for private spaces to respect cultural sensitivities.

What is disrespectful in Egypt?

Pointing at people or objects with your finger can be seen as rude. Additionally, disrespecting elders or engaging in loud public arguments may be considered offensive. Using your left hand for greetings or eating is also frowned upon, as the left hand is traditionally associated with less clean tasks in Egyptian culture.
