Isram to Egypt
 
We are considering Isram's Ultimate Egypt tour for next summer. Has anyone gone on this tour? Any general opinions of this company? Thank you.

I went with an Isram tour at the millenium and I highly recommend them. Everything was taken care of and I don't remember a hitch. I do not know the name of the tour, but it was a little over a week and included Cairo, Luxor, Nile Cruise, Aswan, Abu Simbel, and all the side trips from these areas.

The thing I liked most about the tour (and never would have though of it ahead of time) was the guide. We had an educated Egyptologist from Alexandria and he was able to read the hieroglyphics off the walls for us.

I can't vouch for your package (but I'm sure it overlaps with mine quite a bit), but the company was terrific. They also handled my Jordan itenerary, too.

Have a great trip.

Regards, Bruce

Isram is a very well respected company and provides excellent service. I would just like to remind you that summer in Egypt is hot, very hot. Though your hotels will be air conditioned, as will be your Nile cruise boat, when outdoors - hot, hot, and more hot. Just something to consider.

I am going on Isram's &quot;Treasures of the Nile&quot; on March 13th (a 13 day/11 night tour including Abu Simbel). I will post a report when I return. Isram comes very highly recommended and after comparing other tours, I felt it offered the most for the money.
