Festive King Ramses - 13 days

The tour was fantastic and especially the tour leader Momo. He wad considerate and really made sure I was not hassled by sellers in Egypt. The tour is fun packed and I met a group of really nice people.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Festive King Ramses tour and thought everything was handled so professionally and efficiently. Alam was an exceptional guide. From the first briefing to the final transfer to the airport he displayed professionalism, world knowledge and humour. Specific information about each day of the tour was delivered at perfect times so we always knew what was happening next and didn't have to think too far ahead of the busy schedule. His study and knowledge of Egypt's ancient sites was incredible. He did not falter on any question asked including questions on current Egyptian culture and Religions. His people skills were outstanding and he handled difficult travellers with ease and good humour. I would like to nominate Alam for the Tour Leader Award and I know most of our group would be in agreement with me on this. The hotels were nice and as described. Checking in and out of hotels was quick. Information about each hotel on arrival was never forgotten. ie breakfast times. Alam also always had good recommendations for restaurants and shopping where ever we went.The drivers were always on time and friendly. The transport was clean, spacious and comfortable. I am already recommending this tour to friends and colleagues.

By far this has been my favourite overseas holiday! We arrived a day early and did a tour with MoMo to Alexandria, which I think is a must-do as it gives you better understanding of the Greek and Roman influence on Egypt. I chose this tour as it fits in all the highlights of Egypt. I couldn't pick just one highlight of the tour - standing in the middle of a pyramid, watching the sunrise as we did hot air ballooning over Luxor, the temples and seeing the beautiful paintings in the tombs. If you are going over New Years the cruise is a must. The weather is quite cold outside so I have no regrets in this instance for not doing the felucca ride (which would be perfect for the warmer months!) The party onboard was a lot of fun and the staff onboard were wonderful and gave us quite a feast for New Years. While other tours let you go straight back to Cairo after being in Luxor, I highly recommend heading to Hurghada. After having incredibly busy days it is nice to unwind and enjoy a beautiful resort. Even in Winter the Red Sea is warm and great for snorkeling and scuba diving. Hurghada was a must-go place for me as I had arranged my own private tours there to scuba dive (so if you are a scuba diver, this tour is a good one to choose as you have a lot of free time for water sports) and do a few other adventure activities. Our tour guide Mo Mo was great and went above and beyond to give us the best experience possible. He is an excellent ambassador for his country and would invite us out to share meals with him at local venues in his free time - and these were some of the best meals of the trip. He created a sense of unity for the tour group and assisted us in facilitating great relationships with one another. We also had another tour guide Adham on the cruise as Mo Mo was on the felucca with others. Adham was great as well and I cannot fault him. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wanted to visit Egypt. It far exceeded my expectations and gave me a bit of a taste of each place in a short period of time. It has made me want to return and further explore a few places like Aswan and enjoy more leisure time in Hurghada.

Firsty my Guide - Mohamed Saiid - Momo. What a wonderful gentle soul. Mo was a delight. His enthusiasm, knowlege and passion for all things Egypt is commendable. Mo's Egyptology was outstanding which he delivered with humour that enabled us to absorb and retain the information better - he had an excellent take on when we were getting information overload and would adapt his commentary to suit. We had a wonderful group of people but a diverse range of personalities, some with quite strong views of how things should be done, which at times was extremely difficult for Mo to co-ordinate the group but I think he did a wonderful job of accommodating the majority whilst appeasing the minority. A special delight was Mo sharing life of everyday Egyptians by taking us for coffee and tea in small coffee shops in the shisha aroma filled lanes - a true dleight. SECONDLY THE TRIP ITSELF - for me - 9 /10 - The tour showed us major Egyptian must do's - the Pyramids, Abu Simbel, Phillae Temple, Luxor, Karnak, Colossi of Memnon and the amazing Valley of the Kings. We got to swim in the Nile, cruise down it and then ended up at the Red Sea where we could view the coral and fishes through the glass enclosures of the semi-sub and then snorkel amongst the fishes. Finally we ended our tour with a visit to the Egyptian Museum where we saw the Royal Mummies and of course the highlight - everything Tutankhamun! I found the Egyptian people to be very friendly and accommodating and personally I felt very at ease the entire trip. To make the tour a 10/10 for me - an extra day in Luxor and Aswan and only 2 days in Hurghada would be the way to go. Egypt - definitley a bucket list item that you would not regret taking.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour through Egypt. Our guide has exceptional knowledge of both the ancient and modern history of Egypt which he delivered in a clear and understandable manner. As the tour leader he was very approachable and really helped bring the group together and form a 'family' group while we were away. We met some wonderful friends and made some great memories. Would highly recommend this tour.

It has been a dream of mine for many years to visit Egypt and this year I decided to stop day dreaming about going and actually book a Christmas trip. I have travelled with On The Go before so I knew that the trip would be good, but in reality it was superb and that was because of our fantastic guide Momo. Momo is one of the best tour guides I have come across. He is really passionate about Egypt and it clearly brings him great joy to share his extensive knowledge with people who are eager to soak up the rich culture and history of the country. Momo guided us around some of the most awe inspiring sights I have ever seen including the Pyramids, Philae Temple, Valley of the Kings and Karnak. This trip really was superb and I would recommend Egypt to anyone as a wonderful place to visit.

It was the best! Egypt is a wonderful place and we got to see it all. The tour was very well organized and that gave us a great deal of comfort. Our tour guide Momo is a wonderful and very dedicated person in his work. He made this tour a wonderful experience for all. He has been able to combine the accumulation of knowledge about Egypt with the fun. Regarding accommodation and transport it was very very good. Hotels were very nice and the buses very clean and confortable.

Great trip, talented tour guide. Very knowledgeable and professional.

Egypt is a country that needs to be seen with an experienced eye and our guide MOMO did not disappoint. His passion and knowledge of the sites and country helped solidify our fascination with Egypt. With the tour we were able to experience so many facets of the country. I would highly recommend the tour to anyone interested in visiting.

Great guide. Mostly great tour. An extra day on the felluca would have been good and i donlt think quite so many early starts were needed.
