"Egypt was my dream from a long time, but for security reasons and not having someone that couldn’t go with me I was always saying ok maybe next time… till I decided few weeks ago that it was Time!!

I found Eztour on instagram and immediately I had an answer, Daniel took care everything I didn’t have to move one finger, he adapted the trip in my wishes, Daniel and his team made Egypt for me and my friend the best, much more than I ever expected, people who were always saying "dont go is dangerous" are now seeing from my instagram that not everything media says its true.

Egypt is everything and more than I imagined but im sure it wouldn’t be like that If I hadn’t EZtour to take care of it.

Im really sad that I had to leave, but more than grateful to have had such an amazing experience, everything is so rich in history and beautiful, people are lovely and the food delicious.

If you are going to Egypt I highly recommend Eztour, can’t say how grateful and happy I am.

Daniel thank you so much for all, I really appreciate everything you did, I hope to come soon with my family this time!" Bianca, EZ TOUR EGYPT guest.
