Let us take one of today's most popular destinations- Egypt.

EGYPT is one of the many popular destinations that we specialize in. You will discover places of tourist interests in Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Alexandria, Red Sea, Sinai and through our special plans we make your trip to Egypt exciting as well as memorable.Egypt is renowned for its development of culture and civilization and has contributed generously to the history and treasure of mankind, for over 50 centuries. It is one of those rare countries where you can travel from one period of time to another, exhilarated by history of those who remained immortal; through their bodies which were laid to rest thousands of years ago, in the Pyramids.


Egypt - has over 7000 years of civilization. It is a place where the past and present meet. It enjoys a beautiful weather around the year. So it is comfortable for you to explore various monuments, relics including the Sphinx and the Giza, the Temples and the Tombs of Luxor and Abu Simbel, the beauty of River Nile and the unforgettable Nile Cruises. Thus, throughout the year, you will have some of the most exciting packages in store for you to explore this beautiful country. 

We reproduce below the first hand account of what one of our esteemed clients “Mepani Family” has to say about their Egypt experience - the Compact Travels way………

Mepanis speak:
Egypt, rightly known as 'The Gift of the Nile', is a very enchanting and beautiful country and once visited, one can be sure to want to be a part of it. We were highly impressed with its welcoming people and alluring historic importance. It rightfully holds one of the Seven Wonders of the World. And since we saw it 'The Compact Travels' way, we were lucky enough to witness it in a manner which none of us can forget for life. 

It will be rather difficult for us to judge whether we enjoyed the Five Star Cruise on the River Nile more or the luxury hotel in which we resided! The food, the ambience, service, luxury, all of it met our standard of expectations. Right from the time we arrived to the time we departed, we were well taken care of by the representatives of Compact Travels there. They saw to all our requests and requirements properly and did everything in their capacity to make the trip memorable and enjoyable for us. We had a very pleasant experience as everything went very smoothly.


We did not experience any difficulty due to the language thanks to the excellent guide Raniya, we had in Cairo. By the end of the trip, she was almost like one of us and we were very much impressed by her professionalism, warmth and friendliness. The other two guides at Luxor and Aswan were good, though not very fluent in English. We did find it a little difficult to make arrangements for mineral water. Inspite of such minor difficulties, overall we had a very good and memorable experience. 

We truly thank Compact Travels for making this trip so special for us and we look forward to making many more future trips with them, and experience “exploring places like never before…………….”
