Egypt Elite is a one-of-a-kind travel and tour company. Founded and run by the top American luxury travel and tourism expert on Egypt, what sets Egypt Elite apart is its departure from standard tour operator practices that have long been a source of frustration for Western visitors to developing countries like Egypt.
I still own a boutique luxury travel company called Egypt Elite that focuses on small group and custom trips to Egypt for Westerners, although I usually do not lead the trips personally anymore. As some of you may know, I also run a separate travel blog all about Egypt called the Egypt Travel Blog and host a podcast on iTunes called the Egypt Travel Blog Podcast. I always love every moment of my times back in Egypt. The Pyramids, Sphinx, tombs, temples, markets, and more simply never bore me no matter how many times I visit them with friends and guests.
Most travel companies offering trips to Egypt simply sell packages and tours that are always subcontracted out to a local Egyptian company to actually carry out. While you may get American-style customer service prior to your trip, once you depart you are turned over to and at the mercy of a foreign company or a string of local suppliers who have no accountability for quality or service. After all, most people visit Egypt only once in their life, so local subcontractors need not worry about ensuring an individual visitor’s repeat business.
We have learned over our years of facilitating travel to and within Egypt that the best guarantor of a truly quality travel experience is to offer a seamless experience from your initial inquiry and booking and onward throughout your entire journey on the ground in Egypt. That’s why travel with Egypt Elite always includes expert American staffing on the ground with you in-country at all times throughout your trip. You’ll get to know us before and during your trip, and we’ll even stay in touch and follow up afterwards.
We’ll effortlessly handle any bumps or logistical hiccups that may arise during your trip, which you’ll likely never even notice. And you can rest assured that you will still be able to see the real Egypt while enjoying truly Western standards of comfort and security the entire time.
