"Incredible Experience"

We had an incredible experience with Osiris Tours on our recent trip to Egypt. The itinerary was spectacular—thoughtfully planned and packed with unforgettable sights. Transportation and accommodations were top-notch, and everyone we encountered from the company was helpful, friendly, and professional. But the real standout was our guide, Sam—an absolute gem who filled each day with laughter, insight, and unforgettable stories. Highly recommend!

"Unforgettable Tour in Egypt and Jordan"

As a female solo traveler, I had my apprehensions about visiting Egypt and Jordan. I wanted a personalized tour since most package tours don’t include all the places I wanted to see—and I definitely didn’t want to be part of a group tour where I’d have to wait on others.

I'm very happy and satisfied with Osiris Tours. I simply told Mahmoud the places I wanted to visit and the activities I was interested in, and he took care of everything—from hotel bookings to domestic flights. Upon arrival at the airport, I was greeted and assisted by their representative and got through immigration quickly and smoothly.

I was also very pleased with the drivers and tour guides Mahmoud provided. I felt safe and secure the entire time. The guides were knowledgeable and shared valuable insights about every site we visited. One of the best things about this tour was the flexibility—I could adjust my schedule and explore at my own pace.

Everyone I encountered was helpful and accommodating, which made my trip to Egypt and Jordan not only smooth but also unforgettable. The quality of the hotel accommodations was great as well—I had a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Overall, I highly recommend Osiris Tours for anyone looking for a personalized and one-of-a-kind experience in Egypt and Jordan.

"An Unforgettable Luxury Trip with Osiris – Egypt & Jordan"

We just returned from the most incredible luxury trip to Egypt and Jordan, all thanks to Osiris. From the moment we landed, we were treated like VIPs—personal airport reps, private transfers, and a beautifully tailored itinerary that matched our interests perfectly.

Highlights included a sunrise hot air balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings, sailing the Nile on a private dahabiya, exploring Petra and Wadi Rum, and relaxing at the Dead Sea. The local guides were exceptional—knowledgeable, passionate, and always going the extra mile to make sure we had the best experience possible.

Every detail was flawless, and the personalisation truly made this trip unforgettable. If you're considering a luxury journey to Egypt and Jordan, we can’t recommend Osiris highly enough. This was the trip of a lifetime!

"Professional tour company, to the last detail"

Osiris Tours is owned and operated by New Jersey-based Mahmoud Gebril, a former Egyptian tour guide himself who helped us plan and execute a marvelous, once-in-a-lifetime tour of more than 30 major Egyptian archaeological sites and museums. As anthropologists-ethnographers accustomed to challenging travel and living conditions, we had never considered embarking on a customized tour before (or even traveling with a group tour, for that matter). We were looking to take an intensive, deep dive into Egyptian history, mythology, and architectural wonders spanning five millennia, as well as get a sense of the region’s prehistory and contemporary urban cultures. It would have been difficult to orchestrate it all ourselves, so we’re glad that we learned about Osiris Tours from friends who traveled with the company to Egypt in 2023. We came home fully satisfied with every aspect of the journey.

The company’s excellent reputation in delivering customized private-tour experiences is built on the invaluable expertise of dedicated Egyptologists and support personnel who know first-hand the language, cultural practices, and logistical ins and outs. With the able guidance of two knowledgeable Egyptologists, Cairo-based Ahmed Fathy Alsayed and Luxor-based Esam (Sam) Fallah Itsa, we always managed to beat the crowds and sometimes found ourselves the only visitors in some places. Transportation was handled superbly by a coordinated team of airport representatives and skilled drivers used to negotiating the astonishing traffic jams.

We traveled from Cairo to Aswan by air, by private van to Abu Simbel, cruised down the Nile to Luxor (including a day trip to Abydos and Dendera temple complexes in Qena, rarely visited by casual tourists), and flew back to Cairo. The 13-day/12-night itinerary featured an all-inclusive three-day Nile cruise on the Sonesta Moon Goddess and four different five-star hotels with truly sumptuous breakfast buffets. We could not have been better fed or well cared for, and we are grateful for everyone’s efforts.

"Trip of a Lifetime!"

What an adventure! We were looking to book a last-minute trip to Egypt and after reviewing multiple companies we contacted Osiris tours. We normally just backpack and plan as we go in other countries, but without speaking Arabic or knowing much about the region we decided to do an official tour. We're glad we did! Mahmoud the owner was very responsive and helpful and was able to accommodate a custom itinerary within a very short amount of time.

We were nervous about booking since we didn't know anyone who traveled with Osiris Tours let alone to Egypt. Once we were there and saw how professional and accommodating everyone was, our concerns soon disappeared. Navigating Egypt ourselves would have been possible but there is no way we would have been able to see nearly as much as we saw in 12 days! Our itinerary was packed full. There is so much more to see in Egypt than we expected, and every day was truly amazing and unique. Having a professional Egyptologist to show us around each site also provided valuable insight into what we were experiencing. We had a really great time with Hotep and were so glad to have him as a guide around Luxor, and Bazooka around Cairo. We were surprised by how many people were involved in our trip (several airport representatives, regional organizers, drivers, tour guides, etc.) and it was clear that everyone was working very hard to keep things organized and on-schedule. Everyone was so welcoming and the tour guides were really informative. We were able to just enjoy the adventure, rather than being stressed and preoccupied with logistics had we been planning things ourselves. We would definitely recommend Osiris Tours! Thanks again everyone for a trip of a lifetime!

"Excellent Tour, with superb logistics "

My husband and I just got back from an outstanding two week trip to Egypt. From the minute we landed in Cairo until our last minute in Egypt, Mahmoud Gebril made sure we were always well cared for. We had a seamless, safe and unforgettable tour of Egypt with Osiris. It was white glove service the entire trip from the guides to drivers to airport assistance. Truly outstanding!
This was a private custom tour and Mahmoud was incredible with planning an itinerary that fit our needs perfectly, from the hotels to the activities. His availability and promptness to answer all our pre departure questions was a service I had never experienced.
Egypt exceeded all our expectations and that’s a large part to do with the service we received from Mahmoud and his team.
It’s a journey that will stay with you long after you leave.

"My son and I took a 15 day tour to…"

My son and I took a 15 day tour to Egypt and Petra. Osiris Tour organized a fabulous tour. More importantly every thing that was promised was done to perfection. We were met by or guides and drivers on time. Every one of our tour guides was very well educated and had an abundance of knowledge. We developed also a personal relation ship with them
The Hotels were all wonderful and very comfortable. The food where provided was abundant with international offerings as well a regional and local foods, which we really enjoyed.
Yes I would recommend Osiris to anyone who wants a personal touch and a choice of out of the way venues. Osisis tour will really guide you and cater what you want to experience .
I do highly recommend to take the time to see Petra. It is such a special place unique in the history of the world.

"We had a fabulous time in Egypt"

We had a fabulous time in Egypt. Our trip was very well planned and organized, so that we saw everything we wanted to see and more. Our guides were exceptional - extremely knowledgeable, personable and accommodating. We highly recommend Osiris Tours!

"The best experience of my life!"

The best experience of my life!

My visit to Egypt was truly a dream come true. I truly had the time of my life, and in fact I am planning to return next summer! From the moment we walked off of the plane in Cairo, we were taken care of. Yassar one of our guides and all of the drivers are very friendly and kind. Marwa, our first guide in Cairo is truly a fabulous woman. She was so much fun and very knowledgeable about the history of Egypt. I really appreciate the fact that Marwa pointed out food that I could not eat due to allergies.I She also got us some Egyptian rice to take home. Definitely would recommend! I loved the Egyptian dinner and camel ride, as well as going to the Pyramids. Climbing up to the inside the Great Pyramid was incredible!

Again after flying into Aswan, we were taken care of. Then we met Sam. I have to tell you that he is fabulous! We had so much fun with him. He really did cater to our every need. He is extremely knowledgeable and I loved how he would read us the hieroglyphics wherever we went. If we wanted to go back to ship a little early to rest (because of the extreme heat that week!) Sam adjusted the schedule. We discussed not going to Dendera but instead to see Deir El Medina, and Habu temple. I am so pleased Sam mentioned this because it was breathtaking!! Sam is the very best guide in Luxor and I would recommend him to everyone!
We also did the three day Nile cruise with The Sonesta Moon Goddess. Beautiful Ship, food was good and staff was super friendly. (Definitely get the massage) Be warned though, the cruise really only sailed one day from Aswan to Luxor, the other two being docked in Aswan one day, and Luxor one day.
Everywhere we went in Luxor was truly amazing. I am happy we paid extra in the Valley of the Kings for the three extra tombs, Tut, Ramses V,VI, and Seti I. I think the tombs were my favorite of the trip if I had to choose.
The hotels we stayed at were great, Our stay in Giza was fabulous and the people super friendly. We stayed ( separate from tour ) at the Great Pyramid Inn.Staff was great and the rooms clean, the rooftop restaurant was awesome. etc. The Hilton in Luxor was the best! When we were in the restaurant for dinner, the chef came out of the kitchen and showed me the dishes that I could eat (again due to allergies). The hotel itself is beautiful, including the pool area (no time to enjoy), the staff very accommodating, and the jewelry store was great. I plan to stay there next year when I return, as Luxor is incredible. We also enjoyed the Karnak Temple Light show, it was fun.
When we flew back into Cairo, we stayed at the Triumph Plaza. Very nice hotel, clean and friendly people. The one thing I didn’t like was the fact that we really didn’t have time to eat breakfast and I wanted to take a few croissants and coffee back up to the room so we could eat while getting ready for our next adventure. The staff there wouldn't even allow me to get a coffee to take up to our room, and told us that we had to use room service, of which we were charged extra for. Not a huge deal as the coffee was cheap, it was just irritating.
The drivers including Hossam in Cairo and Ahmed in Luxor were great and the very best guides Marwa and Sam! My visit was incredible and life changing. I will return next year!
This visit was amazing! The Egyptian people are gracious and friendly and at no time did I feel unsafe, and I was traveling with my sister in law. It is sad that due to the Gaza turmoil that this country's tourism is almost at a stand still. That said, we never had to wait in line anywhere!
I would recommend this company to everyone!

"I can not say enough about Osiris…"

I can not say enough about Osiris Tours!!! They handled everything down to the smallest details!! Everyone was so friendly and professional. Tour guides seemed to know everything there is about Egypt and we now consider them friends!! I don't think we could possibly have put any more in the day. We were going non stop!! Hotels they arranged were top notch with views of Cairo and the Nile River!! We even took a ride in a sailboat on the Nile!!! We never had to worry about getting through the airport security and the Visa process, running out of supplies like water, being taken anywhere it was unsafe, or being cheated by unscrupulous merchants. Osiris was on top of EVERYTHING!! My friend is a world traveler and she said it was the best trip she'd ever been on!!! Go with Osiris...you'll be glad you did!!!
