Eu sou do Brasil, Minas Gerais. Eu estou na minha lua de mel de duas semanas e reservei passeios com a Travel Connection Tours. Eu fiquei no hotel Four Season. Eu recomendo fortemente esse passeio! Não tive que pensar em nada nem ter o trabalho de organizar, eles fazem tudo! Fornecem guia que fala portugues, tem conhecimento da historia da cidade e é super amigável! O carro é limpo, uma experiencia 5 estrelas! Melhor companhia de turismo no Egito! Reserve o passeio de Alexandria! É imperdível! Eu reservei o passeio de 4 dias com o Cruzeiro do Nilo de Luxor a Aswan com Guia com pensão completa - cafe da manha, almoco e jantar inclusos! Fomos a Abu Simbel, Karnak Temple, Phila Temple, Hatshepsut. Voltamos a Cairo de avião - que compramos com a companhia - eles nos levaram de volta ao hotel e reservamos novamente com eles o museu do egito, torre de cairo e de tarde nos levaram para o nile cruise, um jantar em um barco no nilo! Incrível! Tivemos uma ótima experiencia! Recomendamos para todos os brasileiros! Reservamos também para Saqqara, Memphis and Piramide de Dahshour e o Beach Buggy para ver o Por do Sol! O dono do The Travel Connection Tours checava se estava tudo certo com a gente e cuidava de nós! Adoramos ter a experiencia com a The Travel Connection Tours! Recomendo para todos os brasileiros! Preços são muito bons! Serviço 5 estrelas! Guia e Motorista chegaram na hora exata combinada! 2 semanas perfeitas!V7972ZUlucies

Je viens de France, on a réservé avec la compagnie appelé « The Travel connection Tours ». Grâce à cette compagnie nous avons pu faire toutes les activités que nous voulions. Nous avions des chauffeurs à disposition pour nous emmener là où nous voulions. Le premier jour nous avons été au musée Égyptien, le chauffeur nous attendait en bas de l’hôtel pour nous y emmener. Le deuxième jour nous avons été aux pyramides, nous avons pu visiter grâce à un guide touristique qui nous a tout expliqué en anglais. Le troisième jour nous avons été à Alexandrie, le chauffeur nous a emmené voir la tour de Pompée, les catacombes, puis la grande bibliothèque. Le chauffeur nous a ensuite emmené mange au restaurant où il y avait du poisson frais et des crustacés avec une vue sur la mer. Le quatrième jour nous avons été au beach buggy (quad) pour voir un incroyable coucher de soleil puis nous avons été faire une croisière sur le Nil. Le guide parlait très bien français, tout était compréhensible. Je recommande fortement !moazam a

I come from United States as a solo traveler. Sab was assigned as my tour guide. My first day he took me to see the Pyramids of Giza and Sphinx. The second day he took me to Memphis, Sakkara and Pyramid of Dahshour. The third day we went to see Mohamed Ali Castle and Cairo Tower. In the evening we went to the Nile River cruise. The driver George and tour guide Sab were very timely in picking me up and very informative and helpful. They spoke very good English. I recommend Travel Connection Tours to anyone visiting from the United States. I stayed at the Four Seasons Hotel. Thank you The Travel Connection Tours! Highly recommend!Colelikewinta

The Travel Connection Tours лучшие в Египте. Мы приехали из Москвы. Ездили в Александрию. Группа 14 человек. Очень интересно провели время. Познавательное путешествие. Гид русскоговорящий. Говорит ясно. Бас очень чистый. После мы посетили группой так же в 14 человек Национальный парк Белая пустыня и Чёрная пустыня. Меловые скалы, древние лавовые поля, кристаллы, роскошный закат и рассвет. Ужин у костра, бедуины, атмосфера погружает. Состояние медитации в этом регионе. The Travel Connection Tours лучшие в стране, на мой взгляд. Хорошая стоимость путешествия, адекватная. Закат и рассвет стоит этой поездки, и ясные звезды.
