Hamad was an excellent tour guide and very helpful, We appreciate his patience with us about the problem with my bank and I am so sorry we had this happen, We also want to apologize if we have misunderstood the tipping process here in Egypt.
All representatives were helpful and knowledgeable, we have enjoyed our tour of Egypt and the lovely country itself and have learned very much.

Good Evening Aladdin and Wedjat Tours
Hope all is well with you!
We finally got back to Canada and are back to work – darn.
Once again I would like to thank you for such a wonderful vacation. We cannot stop talking about it and everyone here is very interested in what we did and how everything went. We have nothing but high praise for the tour, the company, the individuals we were associated with and the accommodations. Other than the heat stroke that I suffered, we cannot find one thing to point out that went wrong. The personal attention that we received was very much appreciated. Our pictures are wonderful and they will be a wonderful reminder in years to come. We will take great pleasure in showing them to our family and friends.
I would like to pass on how grateful we were to find Ali waiting at the airport for us on our departure. We never would have figured out how to get from one terminal to the other without his assistance. With that said I would also like to pass on an apology to Ali on behalf of Kori. Ali took us to the correct terminal but Kori was insistent that he was wrong and was very vocal about it. After we found someone at the terminal who explained to Kori that we were in the right area and that she did have our tickets and that she was in the wrong, she finally calmed down but omitted to apologize to Ali for making such a fuss. Again my apologies to Ali.
Please pass on a big thank you to all of our guides and drivers and again a thank you to you Aladdin, for organizing such a professional, safe, exciting and fabulous vacation.
Wishing everyone all the best!

Hallo Ayman,
Thank You for a wonderful and interesting trip in Egypt!
Both Staffan and me enjoyed it a lot and we are full of new impressions from your country, which is so different from ours here up in the north. The climate is not at all the same - today it is raining and we have had some frost. It´s so nice to look at our photos from Egypt and remember all the fantastic historical sites that You showed. I also enjoyed the cruise on the Nile a lot. It gave a special calm feeling.
We wish You good luck with Wedjat Tours!
Best Wishes Gunilla and Staffan

Hamad, thank you very much for the vacation of a lifetime. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in Egypt and truly had a marvelous time. It was very enjoyable to be on vacation and to be constantly surprised at how nice everything turned out to be, including the beautiful hotel in Cairo with a view of the pyramids, to the beautiful rooms on our Nile Cruise that overlooked the water. We were very impressed with how well we were taken care of and your guides were all top-notch and very well informed. It can be difficult traveling with 3 small children as we did, but your attention to detail and flexibility in catering to their needs really made it special for them as well, and not just me and my wife. We had a magical time and feel that we really got to experience Egypt as it is meant to be experienced. Thank you very much and I wish you continued peace and prosperity.

MINISTRY OF TOURISM TESTIMONIAL
|
I would like to take this opportunity to officially recommend Wedjat Tours to any traveler who is looking to come to Egypt and experience all the amazing beauty and experiences that Egypt has to offer, all for a really great price. I first came across Wedjat Tours after I posted a small notice on the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism website indicating that I was interested in information about a tour to Egypt. Immediately I received dozens of responses from Egyptian travel companies, all offering me a package deal. Since I already had an idea of what I wanted to see, I quickly discounted all pre-packaged plans and only carefully reviewed those companies that would let me choose my own itinerary. Wedjat Tours quickly showed that they were capable of handling my sightseeing requirements, and their own knowledge and professionalism helped me more carefully tailor-make my own itinerary, to include additional excursions that suited my taste. Wedjat Tours was always quick to respond to every email and at the end of the day, they matched the best price that I had received from a competitor, all the while offering more services and options. I was happy to choose Wedjat Tours, and upon my arrival in Egypt with my family (which included 3 small children), Wedjat Tours went out of their way to ensure that my vacation was everything I had planned for, but more importantly, everything that I had dreamed of. This included rearranging our itineraries when the children became tired of seeing temples, to assisting my wife with her shopping and bargaining techniques, to providing us with beautiful accommodations throughout our trip, all while offering everything at a very affordable price. It is without hesitation that I can strongly recommend Wedjat Tours

Ms/ Aegina Angeliades / Greek American
|
My name is Aegina Angeliades. I am a 35 year old Greek American single woman who loves to travel.
I often visit Greece , where I still have family, in the summers. As I planned the trip for summer 2007, I wanted to add an additional stop on my itinerary. Since I would be traveling during my 35th birthday, I wanted to go somewhere special. I chose Egypt.
I didn_t know the first thing about Egypt so I visited a tourism site and got a lengthy list of travel tours. I communicated with many of them but ultimately chose WEDJAT TOURS.
I chose WEDJAT because they corresponded with me in a professional and helpful manner. I was e-mailing back and forth for 3 months prior to my trip and was given great information about Egypt and the sites and then customized a trip with them. I was guaranteed a price and itinerary. I was given telephone numbers and was even contacted by a WEDJAT representative on the phone while I was still in the States.
I chose a 6 day/5-night personalized tour. I was taking my younger sister and was a little uneasy about visiting a middle eastern country but I really wanted to see the pyramids!
Upon my arrival at the Cairo airport, I was greeted by a WEDJAT tour rep. They got me my entry visa and escorted me to my hotel. For the remainder of my days in Egypt, I was picked up from my hotel by a driver AND guide and taken to the various places I chose. I was then always left back at my hotel.
Being an American, I grew up with a lot of misconceptions and fears around Muslim nations and the Middle East. The primary language in Egypt is Arabic and the religion is mostly Muslim and these are things I am not familiar with at all. I also knew little of the political status of the country, the currency and the traditions. All of these things did not matter because I was completely cared for and by the WEDJAT tour guides. I felt completely safe, protected and comfortable during my stay in Egypt.
I was also put up in the best hotels, toured around in a private air conditioned van, given great historic information, told about the culture and society and overall well cared for. My guide even got me a birthday cake and took me on a Nile River Cruise for my birthday! I met my driver_s family and his wife made me coffee!!
Besides being a great learning experience and quite cultural, I had a blast. My sister and I had such fun with our guide and driver. We laughed and told stories. We really bonded as friends.
I highly recommend a visit to Egypt . There is so much to see in this mysterious country. Cairo, the Giza pyramids-camel rides, Luxor, cruises, the Nile River, the cuisine, the culture, the temples and tombs, the museums and monuments.the list goes on and on! I would never have gone, nor felt comfortable trying to manage the sites and the country alone, however. I highly suggest getting a tour and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND using WEDJAT! I plan to return and do a cruise with the rest of my family and would ONLY USE WEDJAT!!

Hello Aladdin
I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help in
arranging my recent trip to Cairo. Everything went
flawlessly due to the professionalism of your company
and staff. Thank you for all of your hard work in
planning and organizing the details of my trip!
Please tell Hamad thank you again for all of his
assistance and kindness while I was there too. And I'm
not sure of the name of the young man who first
greeted me at the airport (Edam?), but I wanted to
thank him as well for getting my visa for me and being
such a calming presence when I first arrived in Cairo.
It was reassuring to be met by someone like him during
my first moments in Egypt.
Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Sincerely yours,
Elise Regen

Dear Ayman, Dear WEDJAT People
Thank you for your wonderful service and for a fantastic tour. We were very impressed by your prompt responsiveness to all of our emails and inquiries. Sometimes you answered within minutes!
We were met at our ship by a guide and a driver with a sign bearing our name. The van was brand new, air conditioned and quite comfortable. Our guide and driver could not have been nicer! Our guide was not only knowledgeable but very personable and engaging. We enjoyed being with both him and the driver very much. I have a special interest in art so I asked the guide if he could take us to see some art galleries or workshops. He changed his itenerary to include a pottery workshop, a papyrus factory and a glass and perfumery factory. He even made sure that we did not feel pressured to buy anything.
In addition to the art stops, we saw the pyramids, the sphinx, the Cairo Museum and took a camel ride. Because we are vegetarians, our guide made a special effort to find us a place for lunch that would accomodate our needs.
I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Wedja Tours - from the very first email contact through the end of our tour. I would highly recommend this agency and would use them again without hesitation.
Thank you again for a wonderful trip.

I loved this tour thank you Wedjat people for all your help, Aly was my favorite guide and Hassan
also our driver was the best, only one thing our hotel in Cairo was noisy but that’s Ok, You did a very
good job! Now, I have to get back to my real life!!! Thank you very much

Rober Carlson – Egypt – March 2007 UK

Me my wife and my kids loved Egypt and the history of this amazing country, all the people helped
us were nice but I have only one concern that our flight to Loxor was very late and we had to stay
at the airport for 3hours so we lost some time in this beautiful place! But this has nothing to do with
Wedjat Tours, we really appreciate what you did and we are going to recommend you to everybody .
Thanks

Susan Ford & Partner – USA to Egypt – March 2007

Our Egypt trip was everything we hoped for and much more. Abu Simbul and Philae were dazzling,
as much for the fact that they were moved as for their inherent grandeur. The temples along
the Nile certainly gave us an appreciation of the civilization that constructed them. And the pyramids
their architectural splendor and their mystery were simply awesome. We thoroughly enjoyed
the Nile River Cruise and the two days at Hurghada on the Red Sea were just what we needed to relax
after 10 days on the go.
We found Wedjat Tours after a web search and it appealed to us because it included excursions that
were optional on other tours, yet the price was still very reasonable. I confess to being a little
apprehensive at dealing almost exclusively via email, but Hamad, your prompt and complete responses
to our questions eased my fears. The “small group” idea was particularly enticing, but imagine
our surprise when we found that we were the only two people on the tour. What a luxury!
All the arrangements went off without a hitch, from being met at the airport in Cairo and swept rapidly
through immigration and to our hotel, through all of our subsequent travels until we were ushered
through airport check in upon departure. Our hotels were all top notch and we especially enjoyed
the swimming pools at the resorts in Giza and Hurghada!
We were extremely fortunate in our Cairo guide. He not only gave us a great deal of insight into ancient
Egypt, but he talked with us at length about modern Egypt. Our discussions about similarities
and differences in our two cultures were among the highlights of our trip. He realized that we were
as interested in modern Egypt as we were in ancient . Egypt and he went out of his way to include some
pertinent extras in our trip, including coffee at a village café where we were offered fresh grapes
by men at a neighboring table, a night walking around downtown Cairo, and a ride on the Cairo metro.
He even made us a couple of CDs of Egyptian music. We had a super trip. Thanks so much

Hi Hamad,
Thank you for the opportunity to participate on this journey to Egypt . It was much more than I
anticipated and seems to have opened inner doors I hadn't known were there before. Ahmed our guide
is an amazing spirit and it was an honor to meet him. And spending time with you is always a powerful
experience.
Most sincerely,
Loretta

Just wanted to say a BIG Thank you to our Tour Guide in Cairo. She was excellent, very
knowledgeable and friendly. You are very lucky to have such a great local tour guide who definitely
knows her stuff and is very well organized. Everything run to plan with no problems and everyone
had a great time. Please pass on our thanks.

This was an amazing trip and it allowed me to experience so much more than I could have ever
done alone. We will remember this in our lifetime that Wedjat's people allowed us to see a great variety
of destinations in Egypt without the stress. From Pyramids to sandy beaches, this is a trip with something
for everyone.

Hayley Breen - Egypt January 2006 Australia

Awesome trip, great for the fit or not so fit. Really good mix of shopping, site seeing and just relaxing.
Compliments to the tour leader Hamdan, he was exceptional and made the trip all that more enjoyable.
Would recommend to anyone. Fantastic way to see the country

Donald & Patricia P. Easthampton – Egypt January 2006 Belgium.

My wife and I recently completed a Platinum Tour of Egypt (11-20 Jan 2006). In short, we were
extremely pleased with the tour, and Wedjat Tours help with all the details of the trip. I am active
duty Air Force, stationed in Brussels, Belgium. Hamad Galwy was our contact at Wedjat Tours, and
he did a suberb job. I would like to also compliment our tour guide in Egypt, Mr. Ahmed Takla. Elia
did a 100% professional job leading our 22-person group in Egypt. He kept the tour on schedule,
adapted readily to changes in the itinerary, had a wonderful knowledge of the sights, maintained
a great sense of humor, and truly made the success it was.

Jane and Kathleen – Egypt January 2006 Canada:
|
We would like to take a few moments to thank you Wedjat Travel for the opportunity to visit Egypt
this past January. We learned so much during our step back into time; it was overwhelming! Our
cruise-ship was very comfortable and clean. Our tour escort was very pleasurable to be with and full
of information.
|
Alice J.G. – Egypt December 2005 USA:
|
The tour was well-planned and executed. Given the logistical planning that goes into putting together
the transportation and various admissions to Egypt's ancient sites, I don't know how one could plan
such a trip on one's own. Moreover having a wonderfully knowledgeable guide like Hamdan with
a Master's Degree in Egyptology made touring the sites all the more meaningful. I would definitely
recommend this package and Wedjat Tours .
|
Philipp Luehrs – Egypt December 2005 USA

Dear Wedjat Tours,
I wish to thank Mr. Hamad from Wedjat Tours team for being efficient in communication and in making
arrangements for our short trip to the Egypt.
I'm living in the Middle East since 6 years and as such I am not spoiled from receiving first class service.
It is a pleasure to see that dealing with your company makes a difference!
|
Wendy and David Redhead – UK to Egypt – Nov 2005
|
Yes thanks we arrived back in the UK safe and sound. We had a wonderful holiday and the Pyramids
and Cairo have left us both with experiences and memories we will never forget. The insights given to
us by the guides added immensely to our enjoyment. A big thank-you to all at Wedjat Tours in Egypt
for helping to give us such an exciting and enjoyable time.
PS - paying the extra for a Nile view was definitely worth it at the Nile Hilton.
|
David Lee and Partner – Singapore to Egypt – Nov 2005

All went well, Hamad was smooth and very professional and so was his other staff ( to limits of their
language abilities anyway! )

Sam Hsu and Partner – USA to Egypt – Nov 2005

We had an excellent trip. We really appreciated the personal service we received on the trip. Our
guides were all very good. We only wish we had more time to spend seeing more. We are very
satisfied with your arrangements and will certainly refer anyone planning to visit Egypt to you
Wedjat Travel. Thank you very much.

There are many things that might draw a traveler to Egypt. These are known worldwide. Dealing
with the esoteric differences, such as local customs, accommodations, facilities and amenities,
security, language and interfaces both public and private can create lifelong memories that are
wonderful or disastrous.
Wedjat Tours distinguishes itself through its employees. This company has demonstrated world-class
excellence. Our vacation took us to Aswan, Abu Simbul, the Nile Valley (Edfu Temple), Luxor, Dendara,
Abydos, Cairo, the Oasis of Fayyoum, Sakkara, Memphis, and Dashur. From our first interaction,
the company undertook each transaction with the highest level of integrity and patience. Hamad,Ayman
and the guides performed with a service level and understanding that are unequaled. We would never
be able to pay enough money for the wonderful experience this team has created for us.
Wedjat Tours deserves its name ( The eye of Protection ) .
Thanks alot

Thank you for putting a most enjoyable, interesting, fascinating, and awesome tour together for us.
We felt everyone was so cooperative in meeting our needs and requests in a most professional and
friendly manner. Ayman and Hamad really took good care of us. We are pleased and appreciative.
I want to write you to to tell you about our wonderful guide in Cairo, Ayman Khalil, He was so
professional, yet so warm and friendly, flexible, and so very knowledgeable. He always made sure
that things were right and if they weren't, he would solve them.

Ed Chan – Tour leader – USA to Egypt – Oct 2005

We had a great time. I was very pleased and happy that we got Hamdan as our tour guide, Our trip
to Egypt was very memorable and all had a great time. The sights and sound were very impressive.
Of course Hamdan made a huge difference in our trip. His knowledge of Egypt was extraordinary. His
love and passion for his country, culture and religion was infectious and added to our enjoyment..
Hamdan was helpful dependable and very flexible. The many extras he provided to the group were
exceptional. His little touch of giving the ladies of our group a flower for our farewell dinner
demonstrated his attention to detail. We started out as a tour group, but Hamdan made us feel like
his guest and finally as friends.
Hamad, once again, I want to thank you for all the work you did on our trip. I greatly appreciate your
quick responses whenever I had a question. You have put together a nice team and I know you will
have continued success.

On the whole the tour was very good with the 4 day Nile cruise being the highlight. In Egypt your
agency Wedjat Travel did a good job for us. We had a good time.

Mushtaq and Family – Canada to Egypt – Aug 2005
|
The trip was enjoyable but very hectic. The guides were very nice and we enjoyed their 1 on 1 attention
that they were able to give us. You have 2 good people there for sure. We were especially thankful for
getting us superb balcony views of the Nile from our hotels in Aswan & Luxor. On the night before our
return to Canada, they got us a Pyramid view room. I asked for some CD/DVD’s on those places and
our guide duly obliged...which was nice of him.
I would say that this whole Egypt trip requires a minimum of 2 wks. But yes it WAS enjoyable and we
did get to video tape (camcorder) most of the places so that now we can look back on it and show to
friends & family. I have some friends already asking about our Egypt tour.

Dayle Harding – USA to Egypt – June 2005

I was amazed at how well the contacts were made to meet me at the many places I stayed, the train
stations, etc.-- quite a work of art to organize everything so efficiently. And my guides were all superb,
Thanks for your efficient work in organizing everything for me in such a short time. It has been pleasant
working with you and your agency.

Xia Wang & Partner – USA to Egypt – June 2005

Stephanie and I were very pleased with the entire package! The tour guides were very knowledgeable.
Everything was on time as planned. We were very happy and satisfied with the hotels. I highly
recommend Desert Rose Hurghada to everyone. The staff there were pleasant and the whole place
was just like a fantasy. That place is simply beyond words... I want to go back again...Thanks again
for your help Hamad . It was one of the best 15 days we had.

Margaret Schoolfield & Partner – USA to Egypt – May 2005

The trip was absolutely wonderful; from the moment I arrived at Cairo airport to the sad moment that
I left. Egypt was everything I've ever imagined and so much more. Apart from the pyramids and
temples, etc., the food was good, the people invariably friendly and welcoming, and even the bathrooms
were clean. The so called 4 star hotel actually put me in a huge suite!
I do want you to know that the Wedjat Travel staff went out of their way to make sure that we had
everything we wanted. They were all efficient and friendly, but I want to especially praise the Guide.
As well as being an excellent tour guide during the seven days he spent with us; he was an interesting
teacher, an enjoyable traveling companion, and when I felt poorly for a day, he was very concerned and
kind.
Please feel free to post any part of this e-mail on your web site as a testimonial. If any potential client
wants to call me you may give them my number. I'm also in the phone book. I've already given your
info to one person at work, and several others have wistfully stated that they've always wanted to visit
Egypt. I'll contact you in a couple of years for a repeat visit!

Pat Alfonsi and Daughter – Canada to Egypt – May 2005

Trip was excellent. We feel we had an ultimate adventure. We loved our tour guide Hamdan.
He was the most flexible, knowledgeable, terrific person. He 's an extraordinary, conscientious
young man. We really appreciated him. He referred to me as "Isis." I guess I always knew I was
a goddess.
We liked the room at the Middle East Hotel. It was a large suite, and quite comfortable. Same thing
with the Bella Vista in Hurghada. Lovely property, nice food, great pool. The Novotel in Luxor - their
grounds and pool are lovely.
We thank you very much for upgrading us to Lady Sophia cruise ship. It was wonderful. Cabin stewards
were just wonderful. All in all, this was the adventure and trip I had hoped for, and loved learning about,
and exploring ancient Egypt.

Derek Harrigan & Partner – Ontario, Canada to Egypt – May 2005

We enjoyed every minute of our vacation. It was definitely a trip that we'll never forget! Hotel
accommodations, the tour guides, and all the sites were wonderful. Thank you so much for arranging
everything for us. And thanks to the whole Wedjat Tours team in Egypt, who made our trip
an experience of a lifetime. We especially enjoyed our time with our tour guides. Their knowledge
and hospitality could not be beat. As well, everyone we met in Egypt was so friendly and
accommodating, it would have been impossible to not have a good time.

Thank you the trip was amazing I really enjoyed it. Our guide was fantastic it was good to have the
same guide with us at all times. We had a great driver and the happy smiling face at the airport was
heaven. You have a very good business and we had a wonderful time. We will certainly use your
company again for further trips. Thanks for everything you did to make it a great trip

We found that the tour was really, really great. The organization was perfect, and we are very
impressed with the manner in which you set everything up. We felt very well "taken care of" and
really appreciated everything. We are very happy that we chose Wedjat Travel for our tour, as it took
all the hassle out of traveling and enabled us to fully concentrate on discovering a new country and
culture and having fun!
The airport pickup and drop-off is great. Your Agent took care of everything with lightning speed,
even filling out the immigration form from us. No stress, no questions to ask, nothing to figure
out -.great!

Thank you for helping make my lifelong dream of going to Egypt possible. It was wonderful, marvelous
and like a dream!
You certainly had your work cut out for you with the two of us as clients. Jeannine and I both work in
the hotel industry in Las Vegas and had to work many, many hours in advance to prepare for us to be
able to leave our responsibilities for 18 days. I know it was a challenge getting everything ready for us
in such a short amount of time. Thank you for all your extra efforts on our behalf.
After traveling to Luxor by sleeper train, we arrived to join our cruise at 5:30 AM. The Luxor travel
rep was friendly. In Aswan we also certainly had a diligent escort called Noor, who was professional
and charming and represented the companies well.
Everything else was just wonderful. The hotel in Cairo was splendid and our tour guide Shimaa was
very good. The cruise was fabulous and the ship very nice. The agent was highly efficient in
coordinating our transfers and letting us know what to do at every step of the way. Thank you
I have already recommended your services to all of my friends and feel that you provide a complete
package that is well worth the money! Thanks again and I will contact you again in the near future.

Let me just start by saying Wow! Egypt is everything we hoped it would be and more. We could not
possibly had a better time. We had an excellent guide in every way. He was very good about laying
out our schedule to us in advance so that if there were any questions or other things we wanted to do
he had time to take care of it. His knowledge of the sites was super. All of the guides we had were
very good but one guide stood out from the rest. The guide from the boat was wonderful.
Let me stress once again we had and excellent time and speak very highly of Egypt and Wedjat Tours.
We will definitely recommend you to family and friends. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable
vacation.

First of all, thank you for the wonderful guided tour you and your team put together when we were
in Egpyt. It was serendipity that I chose you as our tour guide for the trip, since I simply got you off
the internet, but now the only tour company I can strongly recommend to my friends and collegaues
here, is Wedjat tours. Do let me know if you want me to give you some testimonial, will be more than
happy to do so. Cant forget Ayman's hospitality too on the last day. . Mahesh and I would love to meet
up with you again.

Egypt was beautiful. We truly enjoyed ourselves. I had been to many countries and Egypt ranked as
one of the most beautiful. Below are some of my comments. The sight of the Pyramids at Giza and the
Sphinx on our first day was awesome. We had seen many documentaries and read a lot about them
but to really be there to see them is an incredible experience. Ali and Mohammed were very good
companions. The next day at Abu Simbel is another unforgettable experience. In fact, this is the
monument that I wanted to see most in Egypt and we were not let down. Karnak Temple is another
magnificent monument that took our breath away. Overall, we had a real good time. The guides were
good and knowledgeable. Thanks for everything and please send our regards to Ali, Mohammed, Zain,
Saeed and everyone else.

Our trip to Egypt was wonderful. Meeting Hamdan, with his knowledge of Cairo made it a high light.

Dear Hamad,
We had the best holiday ever! Being the only ones that week also added to the pleasure. I have to
admit I was very wary @ first, having nothing tangible about our holiday other than a few emails.
Booking flights, HOPING someone would be @ the other end, however I am delighted my "doubting
Thomas" thoughts were totally unwarranted & we had the most superb holiday.
We saw so much in such a short time yet there was still time to relax & unwind. The 2 hotels with their
superb views of the Nile (& pyramids smog permitting) were breathe taking. After we saw the Giza
pyramids & sphinx we thought that was the highlight of our holiday, even though it was on our first
day in Egypt & thought well that was it, but time after time other things equalled it & for the life of us
we couldn't single out any of the great places we visited as THE highlight of our holiday, however, it
would be fair to say the one thing that is captured in our memory was the horse ride along the banks
of the river Nile with fine views of Luxor Temple on the other side. You can travel by 'plane, train &
automobile as they say & dash here & there, but to have time relaxing, just to meander through the
countryside see how the locals live then it opening up onto the river Nile was really special. I do hasten
to add it was the first time I had been on horse back so this is no keen equestrian waxing lyrical!
The way the week was organised was great & to readjust the week when I failed to report for duty on
Monday was much appreciated & don't feel we missed much as a consequence. The knowledgeable
guides, Ayman & Ahmed made the tour much more interesting & gave us a much better understanding
& appreciation of what we were seeing. Our gopher Mohammed & the drivers were also great. Every
one treated us as individuals rather than just another an coach load of sheep being herded here & there
(I know it would have been difficult to herd us like sheep when there was only 2 of us but you know
what I mean).
We have 15 rolls of film we are eagerly waiting to see & put in an album before we forget what was
where, but we'll never forget this holiday. If you even need a reference then we would be only too
pleased to give one. Many thanks to you both for a brilliant time, it was great meeting you & if you
are ever in our neck of the woods then let us know as we'd love to meet up with you again. Our best
regards & hope you firm goes from strength to strength.

The trip to Egypt was absolutely, positively amazing. Jennifer and I have a deep loving for the country
and its people now. Your guides: Hala, Mohammed, (Luxor: Hassan, Raymond, Ahmed) were all
professional and full of knowledge. We were a demanding group and the guides were there to deliver.
No, I have not forgotten Hamad who stands in a group of his own. Very accommodating, flexible,
professional always thinking steps ahead.
Your Company, Wedjat Tours get my highest award. Jennifer and I travel frequent and we have not
encountered a tour company as masterful as yours. Hats off to you! If you need some testimonials for
your web page, let me know. Jennifer is a much better descriptive writer. Thanks again for everything
and we will do business again!

The trip was excellent. The excellent guides who adapted the tour meant that I could fully appreciate
the various sites visited. The organizers within Aswan were very helpful and appreciable. The guides in
Luxor and Cairo were excellent with very high levels of knowledge as well as English skills. The time
allocated for some parts could be reviewed with some days being combined. The accommodation was
excellent but the food was variable.

We had a memorable trip to Egypt, with many highlights. The Sherry Boat with Saad as a guide was
fantastic - and we loved that view from the Cairotel. Lots of pleasant memories - great place.

I did enjoy our trip and Ayman, Asruf, Mohammad, and Abdula (all probably mispelled!!) were great
guides. I commend them all. Doing a trip like this in a small group was wonderful.Take care. It was
a grand adventure for me..
