Our time in Egypt was unforgettable, there were no problems at any point during our trip. We were always able to communicate right away with our Concierge team through WhatsApp, and our itinerary was clearly laid out in the Original Travel app. The whole experience was like living in a dream. Our whole experience with Original Travel from beginning to end was wonderful, and we are so grateful for the help we received in planning a trip we will never forget.

We had a wonderful time in Egypt and all the arrangements worked very well. The Old Cataract hotel was very special, the newly refurbished modern block, where we were, was very comfortable. We not only had lovely views over the Nile, but also of the old hotel. The Hilton in Luxor was also a wonderfully quiet and spacious place to relax and enjoy our last night. We were very happy not to be in the hullabaloo of down town Luxor. The SS Sudan was wonderful, we were very well looked after. The food and all services were excellent. We were very glad that you suggested/insisted that we took the Agatha Christie suite. We felt very privileged to have the splendid panoramic views and extra space. All our visits from the boat were very well guided by Ead, I think there were about ten of us in the English speaking group, which was fine. Very many thanks once again to you and your team, for putting together what was a very successful holiday for the four of us. Thank you also for the lovely edition of Death on The Nile that you sent prior to our departure. I will treasure it as a memory from our holiday in Egypt.

Outstanding guides, especially Muhammad in Abu Simbal and Hoda in Cairo. The SS Sudan was outstanding, and our most memorable moment was the farmhouse meal in the desert near Cairo.

We were supported brilliantly at every stage of the trip. SS Sudan is the perfect way to see the main sights on the Nile. A special mention for Yara the Concierge in Aswan. She was the definition of going above and beyond in customer service. Thank you.

Every bit off communication from Original Travel was excellent, as were all the guides and the concierge. Steam Ship Sudan was sublime and the trip was a delight from start to finish. Thank you for one of the best trips I have had, and there have been a few.

James and Anne-Marie were absolutely amazing! Very accommodating and friendly through the whole booking process. They helped make my wants and dreams become a reality for my trip. Every guide, driver, meet and greet were all incredible! Everyone was very friendly and professional. David, my guide in Cairo, was very knowledgeable and sweet! Had the absolute best time. I am definitely working with Original Travel again for future trips and I have recommended Original Travel to my friends and family! I loved all my accommodations especially the Old Cataract Hotel in Aswan, The Steamship Sudan, and The Winter Palace Hotel in Luxor. The app was very informative and helped me throughout my journey. Communication between guides and meet and greets were amazing. The additional services were absolutely amazing! Loved the meet and greet, fast track in airport etc. Loved that they got my visa ahead of time. Every day was a wonderful memory on my trip!! My favorite was probably visiting the Pyramids of Giza and riding a camel. I absolutely loved my time on the Steamship Sudan! I was taken back in time. This was a trip of a lifetime. I have always wanted to visit Egypt since childhood, and Original Travel made that dream come true. Not only was it a great trip, it exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much Original Travel!

Exploring Egypt was always my childhood dream but planning a trip to Africa felt like a daunting task. With the expert care and thoughtful collaboration of the entire Original Travel Team, my luxury trip became an unforgettable experience. I used to plan and travel solo but now I know I have incredible guides for anywhere I want to go next.
