Trip of a Lifetime -- Exceptional From Beginning to End My…read morehusband and I traveled from the United States to Egypt for the first time, and our experience with Hesham Egypt Tours through TripToGo was absolutely incredible. We could not have been happier with the organization, communication, safety, accommodations, and care we received throughout our journey. The true highlight, however, was our guide, Yasser. His knowledge was extraordinary. He didn't simply show us pyramids, temples, and historical sites--he took us on a journey through thousands upon thousands of years of Egyptian history. He connected the history, rulers, religion, architecture, symbolism, and culture in a way that made everything come alive. There were so many moments when my husband and I just looked at each other amazed by how much knowledge he carried. Yasser never rushed us and never left out the details. He answered every question and made sure we understood what we were seeing. Because of him, we didn't feel like we simply visited Egypt--we felt like we truly learned about it. Hashem was also consistently checking in and making sure his team was delivering a world-class experience. We always felt cared for and knew exactly what was happening next. Our trip included the Great Pyramids of Giza and Sphinx, incredible temples, Abu Simbel, the Nile cruise, Luxor, and time relaxing in Hurghada on the Red Sea. Every destination felt completely different and unforgettable. One recommendation: prepare for early mornings! Egypt is hot, and those early starts allow you to experience the sites before the strongest heat of the day. There is a lot of walking and some long days, but it is completely worth it. By evening, your eyes and mind are still processing everything you experienced that day! There was still plenty of time to relax. We enjoyed entertainment at our hotels, aboard the Nile cruise, and at our resort in Hurghada. One of our favorite memories was simply sitting on the upper deck of the Nile cruise, watching Egypt pass by while enjoying cold beers beside the pool. We highly recommend upgrading to the deluxe accommodations. After long touring days, having beautiful, comfortable hotels and a luxury Nile cruise made such a difference. Transportation was also incredibly well organized. The buses were comfortable with reclining seats, and when flights were involved, the team helped guide us through the airports. We never felt lost or left alone. They provide an itinerary ahead of time and then give you more details as each day approaches, so you can relax and let them handle the logistics. Most importantly, we felt extremely safe throughout our trip. As first-time visitors from America, that meant a lot to us. The team also made sure we had opportunities to experience local Egyptian cuisine, and some of those meals were among the best food we had during our entire trip. The only activity we were unable to do was the hot-air balloon ride because Egyptian aviation authorities did not provide clearance for the flight that morning. That was completely outside the tour company's control and did not take away from our experience whatsoever. We came to Egypt expecting to see pyramids, temples, and the Nile. We left with a much deeper appreciation for the country, its history, its people, and its culture. I cannot recommend Hesham Egypt Tours, Yasser, and TripToGo enough. We felt cared for every step of the way, and we would absolutely travel with this group again. Yasser and Hesham--thank you for helping give my husband and me a journey we will remember for the rest of our lives.

It would have been a 5 star review, if we had the higher level hotel. We will do that next time…read morefor sure. The hotels we had were good. They were clean and had simple rooms and both had restaurants. Soooo all good there! We just will do the upgraded rooms next time. The tours were AMAZING!! Our guides were both phenomenal! J Lo was awesome as was Alan who went above and beyond. The tour buses were nice w reclining chairs but don't sit in the back rows as they are incredibly bumpy on the dirt/gravel roads. For the money, what a trip! And definitely do the excursions. Even if you can't walk well, there were always places to sit. They were all fabulous!

Pam was horrible!…read more She took every opportunity to take advantage of us during a family emergency. When our family was in a time of need she would pester us with calls and give ridiculous fees in order to change flight timings. We paid over $3200 in fees just for some flight changes. If we weren't with a travel agent and booked this ourselves we would have saved at least $2000. DO NOT BOOK WITH THESE PEOPLE!

I've used Gala Travels a couple of times as has other members of my family and each time they come…read morethrough with great rates, but all of those have been long distance flights to Europe and Sri Lanka, when it comes to North American travel they don't have the best rates out there and a lost star as a result. They are very useful if you call them, they send very detailed emails and do follow ups if you have something on hold in a timely fashion. On one of my trips I had to postpone my fight thanks to visa delays (no longer an issue with my Canadian passport!) and my travel agent with Gala was very helpful in hooking me up with the best alternate flight and while I had to pay a fee it was a painless process overall. So if you have a trip to Asia coming up I would heavily recommend checking out Gala, their website is very useful and you can see their good rates straight away. And yes I was able to collect aeroplane miles too on my fight.

Flora was very friendly and patient in walking us through every detail and combinations of packages. I really appreciated that she was very honest in suggesting to us on unnecessary spending. She speaks fluent Cantonese and English. Looking forward to our trip in a month!

While me and my…read moresisters knew we wanted to give our parents a cruise trip for their 25th anniversary, we knew nothing about cruising! Luckily we got in touch with Barbara and she helped us with EVERY tiny detail possible. The trip was quite extensive and complicated but Barbara was ever patient with all of our questions and super helpful and honest! For first time cruisers my parents were able to confidently go and enjoy their trip and they had an amazing time, they're totally hooked! From choosing the cruise line, to getting a room that would be comfortable and in a good location, Barbara took into consideration every tiny detail so that my parents would have the BEST first time cruising experience. She also explained the ins and outs of cruising, from boarding to dining and everything in-between. We had plenty of questions, as any first time cruiser would, and she explained everything patiently and thoroughly. Any time we needed assistance Barbara was there to help, and she made sure we got the best price and got our Aeroplan points as well! If it wasn't for Barbara I know the trip would not have been the major success it was so I totally recommend her to any cruisers who are looking for some guidance and expert advice!
