I would like to thank GAT Tours who organized our once in a life time trip to Egypt. It all started with meeting Mohamed Ramadan at the Cairo International Airport, who helped us in going through all the formalities with ease. He helped us from literally before we went through Egyptian Customs. He then introduced us to our driver for the duration of the trip, Mr Mohamed Ali. Mr Mohamed is a fantastic man, he knows every shortcut in Egypt, he was very patient and was a lot more than just a driver to us, he was like our personal security, always looking out for us and providing local knowledge as he droves us through different towns. After a nights rest at our hotel, we were greeted in our hotel lobby by Ms Manar. She is an excellent guide whose knowledge of Egypt is vast, and who never got tired of repeating what we did not understand - that also with a smile. Courtesy her, we could have some lovely Egyptian Cuisines, at some of the best places. She even took us at the right places to buy Souvenirs, Egyptian perfumes and Papyrus paintings. We were booked in with one of the best 5 star hotels in Cairo, the team at GAT tours were also a 5 star operation. They went above and beyond to ensure every morning and afternoon that everything was ok and we were comfortable Mr Mohamed Ali even helped me with a personal favour! I wanted to wear the traditional Arabic mens clothing and headpiece for some photos in the desert with the camels. I pre arranged this with him and he went out of his way to buy me these garments to ensure I was able to take the memorable photos I had wanted to. Thank you for this. I cannot thank this company enough for such a wonderful tour and providing us with a lifetime of memories. I strongly encourage others to book with themMaría José S

We can not begin to say enough positive about GAT Tours and the tour guides - Hassan and Sayed - who provided an informative and entertaining first trip to Egypt. We spent 10 days touring Cairo, Alexandria, Aswan, Luxor and the Valley of the Kings, as well as a 3 night Nile cruise. Every detail was covered by a professional and enthusiastic company representative, starting with Yasser who met us at the airport and helped us clear immigration and customs at 3:30 in the morning. He was the first person we met in Egypt and he was a wonderful ambassador for Egypt. We felt safe at all times and that our needs were cared for and exceeded. Our driver in Cairo/Alexandria, Muhammad, was an expert in maneuvering the Cairo traffic and was able to get us everywhere efficiently and safely. The tour guides were very personable and extremely knowledgeable and even provided expert photo opportunities that allows us both to be in the pictures. Would highly recommend GAT tours for personalized service that far exceeded expectations. All of the people we met were wonderful.
