Dear Emad and Amir
We would all like to thank you very much for our recent visit to Egypt and for making our time in your wonderful country such a pleasant stay. I used your company last year and having used you again I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who wished to visit Cairo. Please also thank our driver Samir (I think - sorry if I have got this wrong). How he drives in Cairo is a miracle. We found you all so welcoming and informative. Our thanks to you once again and we wish you all the best for the future.

Dear Mohanad,
Please excuse the long delay in writing to thank you and your company for the excellent service you provided throughout my trip to Egypt with Allan Lawson in May. After leaving Egypt, we continued our travels in several European countries and are now both back in Canada again.
We have many great memories of our trip to Egypt and have been telling our family and friends what an amazing and beautiful country Egypt is and how friendly the people are. We also tell them about how happy we were with your company. The staff in your office with whom we exchanged emails before and during the trip as well as the people who met us to organize transfers were all extremely courteous, helpful and responsive to our needs. We were especially pleased with our tour guide, Amir Ibrahim, in Cairo, who went out of his way to make Cairo a most memorable experience.
So thank you again from myself and Allan and we hope to be able to use your services again if we are ever in Egypt.
Best wishes,
Ruth Tabacnik

Sales & Marketing Manager,
Summit Tours
Dear Mr. A-Aziz,
This note is to express our full satisfaction with the professional service that we received from your company during our two-week trip to Egypt. From the airport rep, to the driver, the Cairo tour guide, the rep that accompanied us to Sukhna and back, everyone met or exceeded our expectations and helped make our visit a very pleasant one. Your company reflects very positively on Egypt and we will be glad to use your services for our next visit to Egypt and also to recommend Summit Tours to our friends here in Canada.
Of special mention:
- Mr. Amir, in addition to doing an excellent job as a guide, he made our tours very pleasant because while maintaining a professional and polite approach, he also made us feel that we were with a friend.
- The van was very convenient, spacious, always on time and adequately air-conditioned.
- Upon our return from Sukhna to Cairo, the agent (Mr. Imad Mohsen ) got us very nice rooms on a high floor with a fabulous view of the Nile.
It was a pleasure to do business with your company and we wish you the best.

Here's what Chris & Liliya have to say about their excellent trip to Egypt. They are still in awe of everything they saw, and truly loved it. Maybe we can all come back in a year or so.

Hi Karol
Just wanted to give you some formal feedback on our stay in Egypt and time with Summit Tours. Please feel free to share this with Emad of Summit Tours.
We had several guides:
Ayman who picked us up and took us to Airport both from our International flights and the Luxor flights
Emad Mohsen and Amir who guided us in Cairo with the Driver Sabri (I'm not sure of the spelling of the names, so I apologize if I get them wrong)
Achmed and driver Said in Luxor.
We found the Sheraton Hotel to be very nice, accomodating and we thoroughtly enjoyed our time there. The room was clean, nice and without any problems. The breakfast and staff were really good. Very welcoming and helpful. We had the same waiter every morning (Mohammed) and he made our mornings delightful and fun.
All the guides were really good. From the first moment of arrival they were friendly, helpful and very willing to explain and help us with understanding the history of Egypt and explaining the significance of where we were visiting. They kept us on schedule without seeming to push us and made sure that we hit all the highpoints.
I really can't mention any specific guide more than the others. Ayman is such a gentleman and very helpful and willing to explain anything we asked. He guided us through the airports and control points so expertly that it was faster than the checkout line in Walmart. Emad Mohsen and Amir kept us interested, entertained and made us feel more like friends than customers. Achmed in Luxor is so proud of his city and history that he filled us with a real sense of ancient egypt.
I would recommend that any of your future clients who visit Egypt to use the services of Summit and these guides. The Drivers have our utmost admiration for their skill and patience. They drove professionally and from having seen the roads and traffic I know that I wouldn't want to drive in Egypt - they were both great.
I hope that we weren't too much of a burden for the guides and drivers with our questions and sometimes moving slow due to the heat. They all were very watchful over us and we felt very safe and never worried.
We had only a limited amount of time in Egypt and wanted to see as much as possible. Summit Tours did a great job in scheduling and including everything that we had wanted and their recommendations were absolutely great.
Sincerely
Chris & Liliya Moos

We would like to thank everybody at Summit Tours who made our visit to Egypt such a wonderful experience. The airport transfers were as scheduled. The two Egyptologists (one in Cairo and the other in Luxor/Aswan) were very good with detailed information on ancient Egypt.

Mr. A-Aziz,
I apologize for being so late in sending this to you but I want to thank you for putting together the tour for the Kleins, Sharon and myself. We had a fabulous time in Egypt and Jordan and saw so many wonderful things. It is truly amazing how the structures built thousands of years ago still remain today. Some even had the original paint on them. I wish we had that type of paint today.
The hotels were great as was the food at them. They were all clean and well maintained with staffs that would assist us when we needed something. There was always someone there to help us with our luggage and answer any questions we had.
Your guides were friendly and very knowledgeable of the ancient civilization as well as todays Egypt. It was really great that we were able to learn about both Egypts and being able to compare it to our lifestyle in the United States. The guides were there whenever we arrived at out destinations and assisted us in transferring our belongings. If we wanted to modify our agenda a bit they were very eager to assist us. Amir and the driver in Cairo were especially good to us no matter what time or how late. In Sharm I attempted to get some money from an ATM and it never gave it to me. The guide talked to the bank personnel on his cell phone while at the ATM and then took us to the Bank of Egypt office the next day. I was reimbursed that money several weeks later.
Overall you did a great job for us and we will all recommend you and your firm if we have other friends who want to go to Egypt. Please pass along our thanks to all your guides for making this a memorable trip for all of us.
Thanks again.

Dear Mike,
Donna and I and our group of 16 returned from Egypt last Friday after spending 12 days on a tour that was extraordinary in every aspect. The flights were punctual and uneventful. The hotels were beautiful and well situated. The ship was the best one on the Nile. Everyone commented on the size of the rooms, the size of the bathrooms and delighted while sitting on their private balconies. The food at every venue was consistently plentiful.
Our guides, Mahmoud Awd and Mohsen Al-Barbary were among the best weve had in the past 30 years. They were extraordinarily knowledgeable and well-informed, while being charming and caring. Our tour leader, Maged, was ever attentive to our comfort and safety. He took care of countless details with ease and aplomb. Emad met us upon arrival and met us again at departure. During our stay, he phoned me and met me again at the Meridien. Ive never experienced so much attention on any tour. What a treat it is to work with him!
The itinerary transported us through the many centuries of Egyptian history. With the tutelage that Mahmoud and Mohsen so ably provided, we discovered, appreciated and learned throughout our stay in Egypt. And we had fun too.
I want to thank you and Emad for your unflagging assistance during the planning stages of this program and throughout the 12 days of the actual trip. No one can ever meet your standards.
Very warmest regards,

Dropping a short note to say thanks for organizing the trip. Amir the tour guide was excellent (and Maged too). He / they came across as incredibly hardworking, genuinely sincere and wanting to exceed client expectations. Khaled from Sharm el Sheikh also came across very well / professional. In short he was excellent.
Selection of hotels - the person who organized the selection of hotels was brilliant. For example, at Siag we had a room with the view of the pyramids, at heliopolis there was a view of palmyra, at red suez canal there was a view of the suez canal and at morganland which was not bad.
The organizers of the Syrian leg was excellent. Mr. Iyad Abo Al Shamat and his driver Jamal was first class.
Best wishes.

Dear Mohanad/Emad,
My wife and I were glad to visit Jordan and Egypt with Summit Tours. It was a remarkable trip and both of us thoroughly enjoyed it. We were very impressed by Jeraash, Petra, Pyramids, Sleeper Train, and Nile Cruise. People of both the countries are extremely nice, and that makes the journey even more joyful. We will be glad to recommend Summit Tours to anybody and everybody. You can definitely use our names and email addresses for reference.
Unique things: Jeraash (underrated) is one of the most marvelous Roman architecture sites around the world, matched only by Pompeii in the south Italy. (I have been to Pompeii as well.) Its design and column structure are awesome. The rock-cut architecture of Petra is amazing. Dead Sea deserves its praise, but Pyramids and Nile River exceed the expectation. All the temples visited during the course of Nile Cruise were extraordinary as well.
Safety: When we visit any new country, where we do not know the language and the place, our biggest concern is safety. We were very glad that the representatives of Summit Tours always accompanied us wherever we went. The moment we deplaned, we were met by your representative and then handed over to the tour guide. Thus, we were always with somebody from Summit Tours. We appreciate this very much and it really made us relaxed on the tour.
We also had the opportunity to walk by ourselves in El Souq (Luxor), Khan El Khalili Bazaar (Cairo), and area around Siag Pyramids Hotels in Giza. We felt very safe wherever we went. There were many people at each of these sites, who were trying very hard to sell their products to us and there was lots of bargaining in each store, but we never felt intimidated. Everybody was nice and warming.
Tour guides: While in Jordan and Egypt, we were assisted by many people. Particularly in Egypt, there were many people who helped us at different junctures. The three people, who stand tall among all others, are Khaled, Hossam and Ayman. Technically, Khaled and Ayman were not tour guides, but all of them were very helpful and each one of them went out of their way to help us. The highest ranked official that we met from Summit Tours was Mr. Maghrabe (Luxor). He was very nice, courteous and pleasant. It was very heartening to meet him.
The most surprising thing: Sleeping Trains We were awed by the sleeping trains. They were simply the best in the word. They were very comfortable and luxurious. The coach conductors were very nice and courteous. The views from the trains were stunning. These trains were better than flights in every respect. I am glad we were on these trains rather than flights.
Since we knew nothing about the train system in Egypt, you could have booked us on any train and we would not have noticed the difference. In fact, we saw many Indian tourists riding on the ordinary Egyptian Railway trains. But, we were really glad and thankful that you booked us on the sleeping trains.
Freebies: In the deserts of Wadi Rum, we went to drink tea at a stall near Lawrence of Arabia carving on the rock. Both my wife and I gulped two cups of tea each and also ate some biscuits before realizing that the shop owner was not going to charge us anything for the tea. It was a cold and windy morning in the middle of the dessert and I am very he had to buy water somewhere else and carry it to his stall for all purposes. His kind gesture touched us. Similarly, in El Souq (Luxor) we bought two sets of three pyramids each in 35 LE total from a guy in the late 20s. I saw him drinking tea, so I asked him where was the teashop. He took us to the teashop, offered chairs, and then gave us free tea.
We had a wonderful time with Summit Tours. We are glad that we toured Jordan and Egypt with Summit Tours and we will be pleased to recommend you to anybody and everybody.

Dear Emad:
I just returned from my trip to Egypt, and wish to thank you very much. While my trip was too short to really enjoy your country, the time I did have was wonderful. My tour guide, Emir was extremely polite and efficient. I was promptly met at the airport by your airport representative who assisted me through the Visa formalities and passport control. I was then greeted by Emir, who escorted me to your bus, and assisted me with my hotel check in.
Emir escorted me everywhere. He would not leave my side, and explained everything in great detail to me. He assisted me in shopping for gifts and souvenirs, and always said I was never under any pressure to buy anything. He wouldn't permit me to be accosted by beggars or street peddlers at any of the sites.

Thank you for arranging such a wonderful vacation.

I am so sorry it has taken awhile to write this email thanking you for all your help in arranging our tours during our 4 day stay in Cairo. You were all most courteous and friendly to us all at the airport and helpful. e would like to say a big Thank You to Tarek & Sarby.
Tarek was very acknowledgeable on all that we saw, his knowledge on all the museums and contents was excellent. He was always on time and compiled to our wishes.
Sarby our driver can not be praised enough on his excellent driving skills, all four of us felt very safe at all times with him behind the steering wheel, although Sarby can not speak English he managed to communicate with us. Both were perfect gentleman at all times and are a credit to your company.

The driver from Sheikh to the ferry was not very knowledgeable and drove too fast. The Jordan guide thought we were coming on a later ferry so we had to wait 1 hour. for him. He was a good guide .

Good Morning, Summit;
I am home and, now that I have re-acclimated myself to the cold of Chicago, I want to comment on my recent tour. On behalf of my small group, want to thank you for a well-orchestrated tour. I must admit that I had some reservations about planning a tour entirely over the Internet, but you followed through on every facet of the tour and we were all well-pleased. From the moment Hamid met us at the airport on Jan. 5th, we knew we were in good hands. Our hotels were all first rate, our contacts were knowledgeable, personable and conscientiously concerned with our welfare, enjoyment and satisfaction, and everyone was responsive to our needs and requests.
In retrospect, we would have been satisfied with a 4-day cruise and we wound up eliminating the Alexandria overnight. This was not your fault. We asked for a five-day cruise and insisted on the Alexandria tour. Well, hindsight is always excellent. Otherwise, we were delighted with the scheduled excursions in Egypt. And your team was excellent: Hamid went above and beyond in seeing to our comfort; our driver, Sabry, amazed us with his control of Cairo traffic, and Tarek was excellent. Once he becomes comfortable with the vagaries of the English language as spoken by Americans, he will be exemplary, because he is very knowledgeable and passionate.
The Jordan portion of our tour was also wonderful. Be assured that Mohamed Badran took excellent care of us. He enriched our tour with insights and expanded our comprehension of Jordan's rich history. As a matter of fact, I just compared notes with a friend who traveled to Egypt and Jordan with ……….. We saw more of Jordan than they did. We floated in the Dead Sea, they drove by. We dipped our toes in the River Jordan, and they didn't even get close.
You may be assured that we will recommend Summit Tours to all our friends and colleagues.
Best regards,
Anna Morris.

Hi Emad,
I'm still traveling ! At the moment, I'm in Bangkok, Thailand where I've been since the middle of December. After Egypt, I did a 3 week tour of the silk road in China which I did not enjoy very much. I guess I got spoilt by the warm and friendly people of Egypt. They know how to treat a foreigner! In China, the people look sad - there is no joy in their faces. Also, it was bitterly cold at minus 15 in Urumqi.
Khun Suchada also had a great time. Everything was well organized and the guides were very helpful.

My wife and I were extremely happy with the whole interaction with Summit Tours.
This commenced with your quick and concise responses to our initial requests and the preparation of our final itinerary.
The actual Tour from the 3 days in Istanbul to our time in Egypt was very enjoyable. It is a pleasure when everything goes like clock-work!
The Tour Guides and drivers were very informative and a pleasure to be with. I think our whole experience was typified by the quick response from your Team towards the end of our tour when we asked if we could alter the itinerary to include an excursion to Hurghada. Your staff from our Tour leader in Luxor to your operations staff accomplished what at first appeared impossible and enabled us to experience the Red Sea at the conclusion of our tour.
A big thank you to your team for this experience. It is something we will remember for a long time.
In conclusion, we will have no concerns recommending Summit Tours to any of our friends who are looking to visit Egypt.

In terms of feedback, the Nile Cruise you selected for us was superb. The
staff were extremely courteous, friendly and helpful. The meals were
delicious and the cabins were very well maintained. We loved their towel
surprises. Their Galabia party was very well organised with almost everyone
getting a prize for their tambola tickets.

We really felt as though nothing was too much trouble and that he was always watching over us to ensure that we were safe and secure. The kids particularly liked him.
Hossam was also very good on the Nile. After Hameed he had a very hard act
to follow but by the end of the tour we had settled down with him.
I would not hesitate in recommending Summit Tours to any friends visiting
Egypt. The only problem for you is that I would say that they should ask for Hameed to look after them in Cairo which will mean that he would not be around to do his day job for you in the office.

Hello Emad,
The following is our group’s assessment of our Egypt and Jordan tour.
*Cairo - Tour leader, guide and accommodation were all very good. Driver and tour leader very helpful and assisted in every way.
*Aswan – Our tour guide was very good and very informative.
*Abu Simble – Fantastic
*Presidential Nile cruise – Good. A little more variation in food would have been good. Accommodation was good, crew very friendly and helpful. Egyptologist was excellent.
Luxor –We took a Balloon ride in Luxor over the “Valley of the Kings” in early morning. What a FANTASTIC experience. I would recommend you offer this experience to your clients.
*Sharm-El–Shiekh – Pyramisa resort a great place to unwind and relax for a few days. Very nice. We were driven 2 hours to Nuwaybi where we caught the ferry to Aqaba. We arrived at approximately 12:00 noon. The ferry was to leave at about 12:30pm, but did not leave for Aqaba until 4:30pm. We arrived in Aqaba at 6:30 pm where our tour guide was waiting for us.
**Jordan – Arrived Aqaba at 6:30pm no time to visit Wadi Rum. Drove directly to hotel and arrived at approximately 9:30 pm. Our tour guide, Badran (Buddy) was fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he was very professional and knowledgeable wherever we visited. Our whole group would highly recommend your company continue to use his services.
**Petra – FANTASTIC, what a wonderful place. Buddy’s commentary wherever we visited was excellent.
All other sites in Jordan were wonderful. Accommodation and meals in Jordan were first class. We had a fantastic time in Jordan.
Overall we had a wonderful time in Egypt and Jordan and would be happy to recommend to friends they use “Summit Tours”
Hope to use Summit Tours again when we visit other Middle East countries.

Hello Emad,
First, I’d like to thank you for putting together an excellent itinerary that met both financial and time constraints. Your staff was professional and courteous, and I have high praise for the way I was treated while in Egypt and Jordan.
These are my recommendations for a few areas you may wish to improve to create a better experience for future customers.
Most important, you should alert all customers going to St. Catherine of the elevation. Scuba divers cannot go into elevated areas within 24 hours of diving, and since many people go to Sharm el Sheikh to scuba dive, this represents a potentially dangerous situation.
Also, I would recommend making the excursion to St. Catherine a day trip with return that evening to Sharm el Sheikh, unless the customer has a preference to climb Mt. Moses. The accommodations and night life in Sharm el Sheikh are considerably better than those at St. Catherine.
An option for travelers going to Jordan go by airplane rather than by ferry would also be preferable. While the ferry was inexpensive, it proved unreliable (it was 6 hours late on the day that I traveled).
As stated above, these details are minor and none interfered with the enjoyment of my tour through Egypt and Jordan. Again, many thanks for facilitating this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Everything was very well organized, allowing us to enjoy our stay.
We have just one comment we would like to share with you. When informing about the cost of the Nile cruises, we would suggest your company tells the passengers in advance that they have to add a certain amount (about USD 60 in our case) for tips of the ship personnel and a voluntary amount for the guide. It is just to make them know the exact cost they have to foresee.
Be sure we will recommend your company to our friends if they decide to visit your wonderful country.

Hi summit tours,
I was going to email you myself to thank you for providing such a great service. Myself and my husband were very pleased with how the day turned out and our tour leader Emad Moshen was very helpful and pleasant.
Before we came to Egypt a couple of our friends have also booked the exact same tour on our recommendation, so i hope you will provide them with a great service also. I should start working for you... haha with the many people i have referred to your company! :o)
I cannot think of any negative aspects of the day that would have needed improving in any way. The driver was very good and also the Egyptian tour guide was very good.
Thank you for having us in your lovely country.

Dear Emad
Many thanks for your message and also many thanks for providing my husband
and myself with a VERY ENJOYABLE RELAXING HOLIDAY. We were very happy with
the cruise ship facilities and the excellent service provided. The food was
excellent, and the trips very well planned.
As far as Summit Tours services were concerned. We were met at Luxor on our
arrival and transferred to the hotel which was very nice. We were met promptly at 12 the next day by Ahmed and Ibrahaam and escorted round Luxor Temple.
We will definitely be coming to Egypt again for a holiday and will certainly
choose Summit Tours to organize our trip for us as you have been most
helpful and courteous.
All the best

Sir or Ma'am, service was top-notch. You were extremely responsive (and
polite) for working with me and my desires. The tour leader, guide, and
driver were all extremely nice and on-time every time. Ashraf, the tour
leader was especially kind and understanding for our travel needs (a small
child requires a lot of consideration). He helped us with everything we
needed, including getting a room on a higher floor in the hotel (with a
view of the pyramids). On the first day, he met us all the way inside of
immigration and helped with the visa; on the last day he went all the way
inside the security checkpoint to help us with our bags and anything that
may come up. My wife and I agreed that this was probably the best customer
service we had ever seen.
Thank you to your company for a very relaxing and fun trip. Thank you to
Ashraf for giving us a very memorable experience we will never forget.

Hello Emad,
Thank you once again for looking after us in Egypt. We had an excellent tour. We would be happy to recommend your services to anyone. We were visited by the tour organizer the night before and the day was explained in detail. The driver was a very nice man. He arrived exactly on time and drove very safely. The local Egyptologist was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The choice of lunch venue on the side of the nile was fantastic. The whole day was an experience we will remember for ever.
Please feel free to give my email address to other customers as a reference.
Kind Regards

Dear Emad,
Thank you for your greetings. This is most attentive of you!!
My mother and I were very happy with the standard of service provided by Summit Tours Egypt and we will certainly recommend you to anyone we know who plans a "self-made" trip to Egypt.
However, there's one thing you can maybe use in your future work: the Abu Simbel Village was (far) below standard and we left it after the first night. Its target group is probably backpackers and other travelers with VERY tight budgets. We left and stayed the second night at Nefertari, which was good, though beginning to run down a bit as well. More upmarket and newer is the Seti Abu Simbel. A smaller and brand new hotel - the name of which I can't remember - has recently opened as well and sports 10-12 rooms or so. For taxi services in and around Abu Simbel you can safely recommend Nasr (012 396 1937) to your customers. He's one of the nicest persons we've met in Egypt, a truly gentle soul and a gem!
With many thanks, best regards and wishing you a good season!

Dear Mr. A-Aziz,
Thanks we are home from our 'trip of a lifetime' to Egypt. I wish I was back
however, because it is snowing here. Our trip to Egypt was wonderful and
Summit Tours is responsible. I really appreciate the fact I was able to make
a list of what I wanted to see and do and it was all included in the tour.
On our first day we went to the pyramids but I didn’t want to climb inside.
By the end of our two weeks in Egypt, I was ready. I went inside the Red
Pyramid and then inside Meidum. The experience was wonderful and Ashraf and
our tour guide, Dina made the pyramid experience special.
I want to thank everyone, tour guides, drivers (amazing drivers) and of
course our tour director Ashraf. He took such good care of us, we felt safe
and we truly appreciate it.
We’ve recommended Summit and Ashraf to several people already and hope they
contact you soon.
Thanks again,
Jana

Dear Emad:
Thank you very much for your kind wishes. We did return home safely after a fabulous trip to your glorious country. We were all very impressed by the magnificent ancient Egyptian civilization.
What made a lot of things easier is the valuable help and advice I got from Summit tour. Your preventative ( Abdul Hammed , I think this is his name) is very professional and courteous and his service was excellent. We are very grateful to his help and sincerity. So THANK YOU for all the help and I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone. You represented your country well.
