The hotels we stayed at and specifically the Nile River Boat was substandard. The boat smelled like mildew and was not very clean. The last stay at the Intercontinental in Cairo looked nice on the outside and then they had us stay at the oldest tower with stained furniture. Same in Aswan, we were led to the old part of the hotel. Our shower did not even work and we had to call maintenance. The air travel within Egypt was ridiculous. Why did we need to take the first flight every time? The early mornings were brutal and I can understand that would be necessary on some days (to be first to the Valley of the Kings for example) but on other days it seemed arbitrary. The itinerary could be more efficient. We should have gone straight from Abu Simbel back to Cairo for example. Additionally, our tour manager withheld information. When we asked him questions he would say, I'm going to discuss that at a later time. This was not how our tour manager was on our Canadian Rockies tour. His name was Daniel and he happily answered all our questions and was teaching us the entire time. On a positive note, I would say that the coaches were very nice and clean. I would also say that they handled the large group in the airport well. We felt safe with our armed guards.

This is now the 2nd survey I've filled out and it will not be as kind as the first. I was very disappointed in two of our hotel accommodations. The first place in Cairo the consigner sent me to Alli Babba's gift shop on the first floor to mail 3 postcards I had already purchased. All they needed were stamps. he charged me 15 US dollars to mail them. They were never sent and I have 3 very disappointed grandchildren. He didn't just rip me off he stole from me. In Aswan were waited nearly 4 hours in the lobby before we were given our rooms. That was more time then we spent at the pyramids, more time then we were allowed at the Valley of the Kings. More time then we spent at Petra what a Hugh scheduling blunder on Collette's part. Plus the staff was rude and not at all accommodating. None of the three swimming pools in our building even had water in them, and we were forced to walk to the next building. When we got to the Dead Sea, it was already dusk and we were able to go down to the water and big disappointment and another scheduling blunder on Collettes part. Also I've requested that someone call me, that hasn't happened yet. Why not?David Bithell

Tour guide was the very best. Hotels weren’t ready for us, especially when arriving in Cairo after long flights. Boat on Nike cruise had outdated furnishing and dangerous bathrooms, plus no Internet in cabins. Internal flights had us sitting in the last two rows of the airplanes every time. Without the fabulous tour guide, we would give this trip a one.

All tours, accommodations and staff were uniformly excellent: we saw all of Egypt with great efficiency, convenience, and luxury. The greatest asset to the tour was Ronda, the tour manager / guide. She was knowledgable, kind, efficient, well-organized and, as a trained archaeologist, was an expert in Egyptian antiquities and sites. We realized the depth of her knowledge when someone asked a question: her answers were always deep, detailed and very good-spirited. She was the best possible interpreter anyone could have of Egyptian art, culture, and history. She said her goal was to make everyone on her tour into an ambassador for Egypt and she achieved that goal splendidly! We cannot imagine a better tour guide than she! We would like to return and take her tour all over again.

Early mornings. Our wake up times ranged from 2:00am to 5:00am. Everyone on the tour complained about exhaustion and lack of sleep. Almost all our meals were at the hotel buffet.We were so exhausted that we only had the energy to eat at the hotel for meals we could have had at local restaurants and cafes. Some of the sites were uninteresting. Many on the tour commented, "we came all that way for this?" The lodgings were 4* and 5* but were run down and dated. Not the way I wanted to experience Egypt. On the positive side, the A-list/5 star sites were great. I appreciated that our tour manager arranged a private tour of Saqqara and Coptic Cairo for me. It was important for me to see those sites and I was the only one on the tour who wanted to go.

We couldn’t get off the boat and walk around as there was nothing to see or do.

Once in Egypt our service was over the top. However the Camar’s we’re friendly but one of the guides should not be doing this anymore. If they need a wheelchair and can’t walk their assistance was helping their partner and the other 16 of us were left to fend for ourselves. Plus lack of knowledge of pickup at JFK was mind boggling . If you do 2 tours a year this is something you should have mastered. I knew more and this was my first trip. Also once in Egypt they announced ok we’re finished now it’s all up to our guide. This comment left a bad taste in my mouth. Anna Marie was more focused on Bobbies needs. Very disappointed with this group and will never travel with them again.

So many memorable sites and experiences in Egypt -- the Pyramids of Giza, of course, the day trip to Alexandria, the lovely panoramas of rural farm land along the Nile, cosmopolitan Cairo, and the slower pace of Luxor and Aswan. The Royal Lilly took us up the Nile to the amazing tombs of Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Queens, Memphis, as well as the carriage ride through the sweet-smoky morning air in Edfu to the temple there. The staff of the Royal Lilly treated us like family, and the flight to the temple of Ramses II at Abu Simbel was breathtaking. I could go on and on . . .

Good value for the tour. We visited all major sights in Egypt. Cruising Nile River was relaxing moments after daily sightseeing excursions. Abu Simbel (optional tour) was a must see site. The egyptologist and the tour director was excellent. Without his expertise, this trip could not have been so educational. However, I thought the the size of the group was too big. He was not able to wait for everybody to gather around to start the explanation and inside of some temples did not have large enough space for all of us to be near him, amongst other tour groups. We could not see what is being explained until later. Perhaps, less than 30 people is ideal.
