Dear Amanda
Thank you very much for your assistance with my travel in Egypt. I am sorry we did not meet as I would have liked to thank you in person.
I thoroughly enjoyed the day-trip to Abu Simbel, and the guided tour of the Egyptian Museum. The guides you organised to meet me or explain the sights were all very good, particularly Mohammed who took me through the Museum. It was a very good service.
Thank you also for the receipted invoice you sent to my personal email address.
All the best,
Denise Almao |

Dear Amanda
It's been a long time since we were in contact - and I've now been home for about a month. Finally writing to thank you for a wonderful job organising our trip to Egypt is long over due. So, thanks to you and your team for making our time in Egypt so enjoyable. Jordan was also amazing... hard to know what were the highlights - there were many many moments...
We really appreciated the professionalism of your representatives in Cairo, Aswan/Luxor and Sinai, and also the tour guides who took us round. All of them were great - interesting, not just about the sights we saw, but also from their personal lives - they all had just interesting lives and from different perspectives - Muslim, Coptic Christian etc...
Im sorry, Ive forgotten the name of the Cairo rep, but he was a real marvel - it was lovely to be met at the airport and farewelled on the train.
So, from both of us - we really love Egypt and would like to go back, particularly to spend more time in Cario - two days was not enough to feel at home in such a chaotic, noisy, exciting city.
Kind regards
Susan |

Hi Amanda
I am glad the payment has been received.
We had a great time on the tours, Mustafa is a very good host and guide and we are happy to be a reference if ever you need one.
We are back in London now and off to Athens tomorrow. We then come back to UK again next week for a night and off home.
Thanks

HI Amanda
Yes, made it home safely and now need a week to recover - unfortunately work tomorrow though!
Really enjoyed everything but not used to all the attention as we normally do everything ourselves! Getting taken in to check in and having it done for us is pure decadence! Anyway, it was a great experience and I will certainly pass your details on to friends who may want to visit Egypt in the future.
Thanks
Vicki |

Dear Amanda and all at Destination Egypt
We just wanted to thank everyone for making our holiday to Egypt so memorable. Not only did we get to see the sights, we also feel as though we have been given an incite into your amazing culture and history.
Maged and Emad, our guides were incredible. Not only were they incredibly knowledgeable, but their enthusiasm for your amazing country and it's fascinating history was infectious. We felt like we were on holidays with friends rather than guides.
I think I've made a friend for life with Maged. You could not meet a lovelier person. He certainly made us all feel very much at ease and went the extra mile to help us out, as everyone did. His haggling at the bazaar was legendary.
Emad also made an impression with his gentle nature and enthusiasm in helping us to understand the Nubian and Egyptian way of life.
Ahmed our representative in Cairo also made a lasting impression. Nothing was ever too much trouble. As our first impression of Egypt, he certainly made a good one.
Our driver Ahmed was also a treat. He made us feel very welcome and despite the language barrier we were able to forge a friendship with him too.
During our trip, there was the unfortunate train accident. Thanks to the quick thinking and professional manner of Destination Egypt we were quickly booked on a flight to Aswan and given a bed for the night. We were all very impressed with how well this was handled.
I would recommend Destination Egypt to anybody travelling to Egypt. Your prompt, friendly and professional service was outstanding. I hope to one day return to Egypt and look forward to using your services again. I only wish you had affiliated organisations in other countries.
Thank you all once again
Melissa, Jillian, Stephanie and Marilyn |

Sam and Amanda,
Thank you again for giving us such an incredible trip of a lifetime. We still talk about it non-stop and even now can't decide which part was our favorite, as it was all so memorable. Our guides were more knowledgeable, and fun to spend time with, than we could have hoped, and everyone was so accommodating, through the good times and through our couple unfortunate days of illness :). We would be glad to provide a recommendation for Destination Egypt to anyone that is inquiring about future travel.
Attached are a few pictures from our trip- feel free to add some, all, or none to your website. Hopefully one day we can make it back to Egypt and take Sam up on his offer to have some drinks together!
Best regards,
Kim and Mike |

Dear Amanda,
My apologies for this late feedback, I've been very busy at work.
I just want to thank you and your team for all the arrangements regarding the Nile cruise on the Jazz Jubilee earlier this month. My wife and I really enjoyed it and we had a wonderful time. We were surprised how clean Luxor and Aswan were and the temples is just amazing. Our guide, Amer, was also very professional, informative, friendly and helpful. We will surely recommend your company to our friends and family that will still visit us in future.
Our warmest regards,
Jaco and Lezanne Steyn. |

Hi Amanda & Sam, i toured Egypt & Jordan with your tour company mid 2008 with my mum Tricia. I enjoyed the experience so much, that i will be returning in April 2010. This time with my boyfriend & 2 male friends that are a couple, I would like to undertake a similar tour that Mum & i did but i've made some changes to the itinerary that will suit our needs better. As we would like to do this tour with your company, can you let me know how far out from April 2010 i need to organise the tour with you. I found my experience with your company unforgettable & have recommended your company to any people i know that want to tour Egypt & Jordan.
Thank you Kylie Middleton (Australia) |

Hi Amanda,
I've recopied Haytham because my original email bounced back to me, I must have incorrectly typed his address.
Thanks for the follow up! It was an INCREDIBLE trip and I've given your contact information to at least ten people since my return! Here are a few photos for your collection.
Again, the trip was perfect and your company and staff were absolutely perfect. Haytham is a TREASURE and the absolute very best Worldwide. (Does that mean he should get a raise??) ;)
Thanks again all,
And anytime you're thinking of seeing a different Wonder of the World, I'm close to the Grand Canyon and always have room for friends at my house. :)

Hi Amanda!
It was so great meeting you guys too and I plan on telling anyone who's looking to come to Egypt to get in touch with you. You guys did such a good job making the trip very easy for us and that made for such a wonderful experience. I also wanted to tell you that of all of the places we ate, we both agreed that the meal at your house was hands-down the best.
I'll work on filling out the form and get it back to you and I think Scottie was going to send some pictures if he hasn't already.
Thanks again for such a good time.
Melanie
PS--I think I'll be seeing Julie tonight and I'll tell her you said "hello". |

Hi Amanda:
Yes, we got home late last night. Very tired. Sorry we didn't get to see Sam at the airport. We had something for the two of you we wanted to give, but that's ok. We'll mail it. We had a wonderful time, even though everyone got sick at one point. Carmen and I are still recovering.
Thanks so much for making our visit a memorable one.
Take care,
Jeff |

Dear Sam,
Thank you very much for being such a fabulous host in this magical country of yours. I had a fascination with Egypt as a child and have always wanted to come here. I think with your ability to run our tour with such a relaxed, confident manner I was able to completely focus on soaking up the Wonders of Egypt. At the temple of Karnak I think I finally could believe I was actually here!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! Your country is lucky to have such a great advocate for its lovely treasures and culture. Loads of Love, Jenny :) |

Amanda -
There was no adequate way to thank you in words for your kindness to us. Erwin and I never expected our trip to be so wonderful - We'll never forget a minute of it!
These are some gifts that I chose especially for you - hoping they bring you a smile. They were all handmade in the U.S. The Applalachian Mountains are where I grew up....Love,
Judy + Erwin |

Sam,
Its impossible to express how much you meant to us during our time together. The joy of learning is the greatest gift - you have shared that with us. Getting to know you as a person has been a wonderful bonus. Your kindness, tolerance, and humor surrounded us every day. This picture of Osiris means that we thank you for leading us to paradise! Love - Erwin + Judy |
