This was the highlight of my trip to Egypt! Sameh made us feel like family from the moment we arrived. The bread-making workshop with local women was so special, and the countryside lunch was absolutely delicious. The palm tree climbing was hilarious and unforgettable. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a true cultural experience beyond Cairo.

I loved every detail of this day. Sameh was patient, knowledgeable, and a fantastic guide. We visited hidden spots in Dahshur, learned to make Ajwa cookies, and even crafted small souvenirs from natural Halfa plants. I especially appreciated the professional photos — such beautiful memories to take home.

An authentic Egyptian experience! Everything felt real and personal, not touristy. The lunch was one of the best meals I had in Egypt — homemade molokhia and mahshy that tasted like they came straight from a family kitchen. The workshops were fun, and it was great to meet and talk with local farmers. Gracias, Sameh!

Sameh is not just a guide, he’s a storyteller and a bridge between cultures. I learned so much about village life, agriculture, and Egyptian traditions. My favorite part was the quiet walk through the fields at sunset, followed by watching the pyramids from a hidden viewpoint. Pure magic.

I’ve traveled around Egypt before, but this was a completely different side of the country. The whole day was perfectly organized — from pickup in Cairo to the workshops, food, and photography. Sameh is warm, professional, and knows how to make everyone feel included. A must-do for travelers seeking more than the usual tourist trail.

From the very first communication, Simsem Travel team was incredibly helpful and thoughtful. They truly listened to what we wanted and suggested the best possible way to make the most of the days we had in Egypt. Everything felt carefully planned, yet effortless on our side. We did two excursions with Simsem Travel. The first was a Luxor–Aswan journey with private transfers and guided tours, perfectly organized and paced. The second took us deep into the desert, exploring the Black and White Desert and the surrounding landmarks, ending with an unforgettable night under the stars. The highlights? Watching the sunrise from a hot air balloon over Luxor - a moment that felt almost unreal - visiting the majestic Karnak Temple and exploring the breathtaking Djara Cave, which was unlike anything we had ever seen. Beyond the destinations themselves, what truly stood out was the hospitality, the professionalism, and the sense of safety and care throughout the entire experience. A beautifully curated journey and a truly unique experience that we will carry with us for a long time. Highly recommended.
