I would highly recommend this agency Im very appreciate of the attention, service and hospitality my mother and I received from travel joy, staring with Oscar & Kirolo who ensure all was in place for this amazing trip. Then follow by Jose & Heham who really took care of us, made sure we walk away from each site we visit with a full exposure and their attention towards my mother, was priceless. I’m very grateful for all their attention and hospitality.

My Amazing stay in Egypt I arranged with this travel agency tours in Cairo and Luxor. They were extremely friendly and helpful. All transportation was on time and great tour guys. Drivers were so attentive and were always on time. I also booked my nights in Cairo in their Australian Hostel and staff was so friendly and welcoming. Rooms were cleaned and the hostel was in a great central location in Cairo downtown.

Incredible experience The tour was really good. Our tour guide, Heshan, was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole tour, very professional and very keen on teaching us whatever we wanted to learn about. We did a Pyrammids and Sakkara necropolis day tour and we asked for a few extra sites to visit which normally are outside of the program (pyramids of Dahshur) and the agency had no problem in adapting the program so that we could explore what we wanted. Amazing experience and recommend it to everyone.

The trip of a lifetime with Travel joy! Can’t say this enough: AMAZING EXPERIENCE! My wife and I were in Cairo for 3 days with a few friends on the way to a wedding in Hurghada and we booked all our Cairo experiences with Travel Joy. They arranged for hotel/airport transfer, all tours and were incredible helpful. Absolutely made our trip incredible. Special shout out to Emily who was very patient and helpful helping me design our trip, Michael the best tour guide there can be (really funny too), and Kero who was a life saver. Could not ask for a more dedicated and committed group of professionals. We felt very safe and supported.

Excellent experience with Travel Joy Egypt Tour OMG! It couldn't be better! Our trip was only 3 days in Cairo and Luxor. Omar's team really knows what he is doing, they coordinated everything perfectly, guide in Spanish, transfers, Nile cruise, we really enjoyed the food, they took us to really good places. We didn't have to worry about anything just getting there. We really enjoyed our stay in Egypt, the guides are really good, they explain everything wonderfully in Spanish and took us to the places we were interested in! They took spectacular photos of us and always on the lookout for everything from picking us up at the airport to returning us there! If you want to live an experience without worries in this beautiful country, I really recommend them very much! Thank you for everything, I'm sure we'll be back with you!

Memorable multi-city tour of Egypt Our group of 13 had a memorable multi-city tour of Egypt thanks to Travel Joy and guide Mostafa. Over 6 months of planning ensured smooth sailing from start to finish. Comfortable transit aboard a spacious Toyota Coaster added enjoyment between destinations.We were delighted by most aspects of the 3-night deluxe Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor, taking in iconic sights along the river. A road trip to Abu Simbel and Alexandria broadened cultural horizons outside Cairo as well.Our dedicated guide Mostafa and his cheerful team, including Omar and Kiro, anticipated every need with excellent hospitality. Relying on their local expertise enhanced appreciation for Egypt's rich history.While optional excursions hold value exploring off-itinerary, do thorough research beforehand. Knowing typical pricing prevents potential mismatches in expectations. When time permits, leisurely browsing artisan workshops and perfumeries can also prove rewarding after confirmed interest and minor negotiation.Overall, Travel Joy Egypt delivered wonderful memories through meticulous coordination. I'm grateful for their passion in sharing this magnificent land and cultures with visitors from around the world.

More About

Port Said to Cairo Day Tour!

Transportation from Port Said Port
After meeting our representative holding a sign with your name, you will begin your journey aboard an air-conditioned vehicle. Travelling for approximately three hours along with a police convoy, you will feel safe and secure on the drive to Cairo. Our drivers are highly experienced in navigating traffic efficiently to ensure we maximize our time exploring destinations. Comfortable leather seats and tinted windows also help beat the heat during the ride. Complimentary water and snacks are provided to keep you refreshed for a full day of sightseeing.

The Pyramids of Giza
The first stop on our itinerary is undoubtedly one of the most iconic – the Pyramids of Giza. Towering over the landscape, the Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure were built as magnificent tombs for pharaohs over 4,500 years ago. You will have the once-in-a-lifetime experience of being up close to these ancient wonders. Expert commentary from your guide will help bring to life how the pyramids were constructed using only basic tools by ancient labor forces. Don’t forget your camera – these structures are truly a sight to behold rising from the sands of the Sahara desert.

The Great Sphinx
Next on the agenda is a visit to the Great Sphinx located near the Pyramids. With the body of a mythological lion and the head of a pharaoh, believed to be Khafre, this imposing sculpture dates back to around 2500 BC. Tales abound regarding this enigmatic figure – ask your guide for the theories surrounding its construction and purpose. Take time to admire the scale and craftsmanship that went into carving this limestone statue that remains one of the largest monoliths in the world.

King Tut’s Treasures and Valley Temple
After exploring Giza Plateau, we will drive to Cairo city for a quick lunch by a local restaurant. Nourished, the afternoon begins with a visit to the renowned Egyptian Museum, home to over 150,000 artifacts. This includes of course the glittering finds from King Tutankhamun’s tomb including his solid gold death mask. Mummies of pharaohs and exhibits with hieroglyph translations also fascinate visitors here. Before returning to Port Said, a quick stop will be made at the Valley Temple at Giza to witness ancient construction techniques up close in this lesser visited site.

Shopping for Crafts and Return
We have a demonstration lined up to introduce you to ancient Egyptian papermaking methods using reed fibers – an innovative art form still practiced today amongst traditional communities along the Nile. A souvenir shop provides the opportunity to support local artisans by purchasing handicrafts directly. All too soon our day tour comes to an end as we transfer you safely back to Port Said port, arriving in the late evening with memories to last a lifetime. Thank you for travelling with Travel Joy Egypt – see you on our next expedition!
