Every year we go to Egypt. It is easy, safe, mysterious, and most of all incredibly rich in history, archaeology, and culture. Every year we see different things. Everything is arranged for us by Mohamed, our wonderful planner. We just arrived, and once more, this trip surpass our expectations, thanks to our two guides that accompanied us all the way: Khaled Mohasab in Southern Egypt and Hend in the North. 16 days with two awesome guides, and lets not forget our wonderful, patient, professional, and careful drivers: Souod and Mustafa. We are so lucky to have found this company. This time we didn't go to Lake Nasser and the usual itinerary. There is more to Egypt than what the commercial tours take you to. We did go, as every year, to the incredible temples of Abydos and Dendera. Every time we see something different, new excavations, new paths. We had an incredible adventure in Fayoud; Wadi Hitan, "The Whales Valley." In the Tuna el-Gebel Necropolis, we went inside underground streets; 5 miles have been cleared, and still cleaning more. In Amarma, we climbed to the top of the mountain to visit the tombs carved inside the mountain. We visited the new museum, still not opened to the public, but thanks to Mohamed and our great guide Hend we were able to visit. Everyone knows Hend (that opens many doors and pyramids!) The difference between a tour and an incredible trip is thanks to our planner Mohamed, he is flexible. I changed several things at the last moment. And to our wonderful, knowledgeable, professional guides that came with us. Cairo's traffic is awful, but don't get disappointed. Take it as an experience. The rest is awesome! We found out, through experience, that the best way to travel is with a great custom-made planner like Mohamed Abd El Tawab of Trips in Egypt. He chooses our trips with our likes in mind. Yes, I am very picky; I don't eat in Tourist Restaurants, I don't waste time in Tourist Traps, I like to stay the last day at the Meridien, Cairo Airport (this way we don't fight traffic), and I'm a vegetarian, and also allergic to smoke and perfume. Can't wait to see Hend and Khaled again, and plan another trip with Mohamed (he is flexible, knowledgeable, professional, and patient!
