This has been one of the most unforgettable tours I have ever been on.

I have traveled to Tanzania and Kenya on tours but this was the best coordinated tour I have ever been on.  I would be pleased to leave a very positive testimonial.

 

I would also like to make comments in regard to your operators.

 

If you have contact information for Amir from Cairo, please send it to me so I can give him my kindest regards.  He was our first experience after Ayman.  Please send him my information.

 

I will follow this message up pending your response.

 

Kindly,

Emad,

Thank you for your gracious work on these documents and the entire trip. Thank You also for the Easter wishes.

I am now rested and back in full swing planning other trips around the world. Your team was most gracious as we travelled from place to place and very accommodating with the sand storm and changes in plans.

Emad  Mohsen  truly worked hard to get our group what they needed as well as introduced many of us to other aspects of Egyptian Culture. He was a great leader , a great worker and he continued to fight for our group to see all the many areas we saw on our trip. You, Emad Mohsen , the Guides and all others we met were most accommodating and helped in so many ways.  We had a tremendous trip, one we will never forget.

Soon, I hope to bring my husband and father back, on that trip I will look forward to seeing the other places you have mentioned and also some of the amazing historical parts of your great country that I have already seen .

Have a wonderful week and year. Thank You again.

Mr. A-Aziz, 

 

Thank you so much for your company's help for our entire trip.

It was an honor to work with you and your company.

Our students definitely had a wonderful experience in Egypt for their 10 days there.  There are couple of them already missing Egypt. So you can tell that they loved it!!!

 

We're definitely looking forward to work with you in the long run.

I will sure keep in touch with you

Wish you best with everything and take care!

Good afternoon!

 

First of all let me congratulate Summit Tours and their organization.  My wife and I had an extremely enjoyable trip.. the arrangements worked out very well; the accomodations were more than acceptable and the guides and drivers were both punctual, courteous and informative. The sights in Egypt were most impressive and the 3 day cruise down the Nile very peaceful.

 

Jordan was great (Petra was sensational and the guide there was excellent) and we must strongly suggest that whomever you send  on to Amman, please MAKE SURE that you include a visit to Jerash as a must! A city tour of Amman is probably not required... not a lot to see, but Jerash was quite memorable. Mount Nebo... not as exciting.

 

We have no hesitation in recommending your company to other travellers.

 

Regards

 Allan & Elizabeth Schwartz

Emad A-Aziz,

 

Flight in was ok. Delays in Frankfurt.

 

Our guide Amir in Cairo is fantastic. I would recommend to anyone. He is more than a guide, he is a friend. Wonderful that you have him and our driver in Cairo E-hab. Both so polite, caring, helpful and a joy to be with. They are both great with our child as well.

I can’t say enough about them.

 

The hotel in Luxur is great. Better than Cairo. More room for us. Cairo was ok, clean, just on the small side.

 

I hope that your company has a survey when we are back home. We have really good reviews.

Dear Emad,

My apologies for the long delay in getting back to you about the wonderful trip we had.

I have been meaning to send you a quick note on the evaluation but I got so busy after the vacation that I just did not have time to complete the note I started to write.  Now I can't even find the note that I started ;-)

Anyway, I wanted to say that we all had a great time and your arrangements have been very good.  Barring a few things overall everybody in the group have a good time.  My observations are that interestingly Jordan turned out to be a great place for tourists (better than Egypt I must say).  I think the main reason was in Egypt the people were very pushy & aggressive and most of us had unpleasant experiences when dealing with people (mainly sales people in Egypt) but in Jordan we felt more at ease and were pleasantly surprised to see high quality facilities even in remote places.

Once again, I want to thank you for the great time and I have already recommended your services to some our friends.

Warm Regards,
Suresh

Comments :  We just wanted to thank everyone at Summit Tours for looking after us so well during our Christmas / New Year holiday in Egypt. We wanted to see all the main historical sites and tailored one of your programmes to achieve this, with some relaxation on the Red Sea at the end. Your excellent organisation and planning made everything go very smoothly. However, the real bonus was the friendly and helpful people that Summit Tours have throughout the country. We felt like we were being looked after by friends, from the drivers and company reps to the tour guides / Egyptologists who brought the historical sites alive for us. We found that we had a lot in common and really enjoyed our trip. We will recommend Summit to anyone we know who is planning to travel to Egypt.

Dear Mr. El-Seify and the entire staff at Summit Tours,

 

On behalf of our group of 9, I would like to thank you for all of your work into putting together an absolutely wonderful vacation for all of us.  Upon arriving back in Cairo, I asked my friends if anything could have been improved, and the answer was nothing.  It was perfect.  From the pick ups in Cairo to Aswan to Abu Simbel to the cruise to Luxor, everything was absolutely amazing.  We would like to particularly recommend our guide, Wael, who was friendly, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to be around.

 

Personally, I cannot thank you, your staff, and your family enough for this wonderful gift.  Your generosity left me speechless as I continued to be amazed by cruise ships and temples while we were in Upper Egypt.  I simply cannot put into words how grateful I am to everyone involved in this.  I hope it is ok that I have been telling my colleagues about how wonderful and professional Summit Tours is, and I hope to see you receive reservations from other AIS staff in the future.

 

I hope you had a wonderful Eid vacation and I wish you, your company, and especially your family all the best for the future.  If there is anything I can ever do for you, or for Mohamed, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

 

Again, thank you so much for an amazing experience.

Dear Emad:

Thank you for the wonderful service . First your best guides/Egyptologists 'Prince' Amir,  Ha! ha! make sure you call him Prince, Emad Mohesen, these two definitely need a BONUS they went over & beyond to help us with anything! Emen from Aswan was good too, she led us to a great restaurant & we had fun at the Nuwbeian village.

 

We absolutely loved our snorkel tour, Bob & the staff were great, the lunch
was yummy & I wish we would've spent a couple more days in Sharm.

 

Aswan Basma hotel - great, good view, food, comfortable


Cairo - Zoser hotel, accommodating-switched to queen bed - rooms poorly lit, good shower


Morganland - very small shower - nice views


Jordan - Crown plaza good food, fabulous beds very comfortable


MovenPick - Thank you we loved  it our favourite!!! Wish we had another night there!! It also was the only hotel that had a warm enough pool to swim


Geneva - Big enough room, but very drab


Anyway I won't go on too much more. We're not big city people but I would come & see Cairo again, also would very much like to spend 4 - 5 days in Dahab snorkelling!

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.

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.

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

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 today’s 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 we’ve 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.  I’ve 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,

Maurice Camire

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.

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.
 
Regards,
Pradeep

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. When it was time to leave the next day for my flight to Sharm, Emir again escorted me to the airport and assisted with check in. I would feel very comfortable recommending Summit and Emir to all of my friends.

--------------------------------

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 we’ve 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.  I’ve 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,

Maurice Camire

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.
 
Regards,
Pradeep

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  â€¦â€¦â€¦.. 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.

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.

I would have no hesitation in recommending your service to other customers

Emad

 

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

 

Regards

 

Bill

Dear Emad,

Thanks for getting back...we had a wonderful time in Egypt. I was happy to
see today on the BBC online news that Tutakhamun's mummy has been exposed
for a few special guests. The pictures were great to see (we didn't actually
go to his tomb but saw all the artifacts in the Cairo museum).

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 were very pleased with your meet and greet services at the various places
as well. Your person at Cairo (also an
Emad
I think) was very hospitable,
warm, helpful and informative.

Regards,
Amira Peter

Hi Emad

we are home now and very tired.

We very much enjoyed our stay in Egypt.

The accommodation, food etc at le Meridian was fantastic.  The room on the boat was good and boat's food was Ok .
I found both guides to be very good and had very good knowledge of  places and events in Egypt's history.

I especially thought that Ahmed, our guide for the Nile cruise, was a  very good host and he was very very helpful in all matters.

All the tours were very enjoyable.

We will certainly use your company again for our next trip and will  recommend you to anyone we know who is visiting Egypt.

Thank you !!

Kind Regards,
Brett Stephenson

Emad

Thank you for your email. We had a wonderful time in Egypt and were very  well looked after by
Summit Tours.  In particular Hameed was fantastic
.  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.

Thanks again.

David

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.

 

Regards

Hi Emad:

First of all I wanted to say that the itinerary was  fantastic! Our guide in Jordan (
Bodi
)  was one of the   best we have ever had. He was  knowledgeable, great English  and very helpful with everything. Syrian and  Lebanon guides were fantastic as well.

The transportation and accommodations was great! Everything as in working  condition and clean.

Hi Emad

 

We certainly enjoyed both tours.  Was rather confusing to be told that the sound and light show started an hour later than expected, but had a lovely time in a local restaurant near the Pyramids until it was time to watch the show.  The guide and driver were very helpful and nice to us and we felt it was money well spent.

 

The Nile cruise and dinner was also very good - all in all the trip was good and again enjoyed by us all and good value for money.

 

Thank you to you and your staff for making our short visit even more enjoyable.  I would recommend your agency to others without hesitation.

 

Best wishes

Regards

Cairo: A very very good trip. Emad M   was a wonderful guide, the driver was very nice. Emad was very knowledgeable and very accommodating as well. Since finding out we were honeymooners, he went the extra mile to include flowers, to play us some music, and to be very kind. We were very impressed with.

We felt that the
tour guides
really were helpful in accommodating to our needs (when we arrived at the cruise boat, they didn't know we were honeymooners. In fact, all the tour guides didn't know we were honeymooners, even after me explicitly telling the agency we were).

The Pyramid Hotel Le Meridien was an incredible hotel. We'd go back!

Thank you so much

I wish to  express my gratitude to Summit Tours for providing my wife and I with an excellent vacation.  The tour of Egypt was all I had hoped for and more. In particular I wish to single out two people who exelled in their respective positions.

The first, Mr. Ashraf, who made us feel very welcome and dispelled any worries or fears we made have had regarding prospective difficulties. His patience (I don't think we were ever on time, for anything) was boundless.

Secondly, Mr Emad Salama, who was our tour guide in Luxor and Aswan, went above and beyond the call of duty. We made many requests of him and he never let us down.

My profound thanks and appreciation go out to these men for all the work they did for us in making our holiday the trip of a lifetime.
 
 Thanks again,

Dear Mr. Emad,

I would like to let you know that our group of last April enjoyed their trip very much. They liked their Lake Nasser Cruise very  much and were also satisfied with your transportation and all the other services.  They surely left with a good impression about Egypt and Summit Tours.


Actually they did enjoy their trip to the desert a lot and this is why  they are planning on coming back to Egypt to travel the Gilf Kebir in  March 2009 and  I would like to cooperate with your company again in this regard .  I will be in touch  .


Thank you and best regards

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.

Ted.

Dear Emad,

We apologize for our delay in replying to your kind message. We would like to express our deep appreciation to you and all the members of your company we have met during our tour in Egypt last April for your kindness and efforts to make our trip very pleasant.

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.

With our best regards,

Marta and VĂ­ctor Pochat

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.
