Places You'll Visit
Montaza Palace is a royal palace complex on the Mediterranean coast in Alexandria, Egypt, begun in 1892 when Khedive Abbas II built the Salamlek as a hunting lodge. King Fuad I added the larger Al-Haramlek Palace starting in 1932, blending Ottoman and Florentine Renaissance styles, and the surrounding gardens and beach became a favored royal family retreat.

Hello. I booked two excursions: Cairo (Grand Museum + Pyramids + Sphinx) and Luxor + Valley of the Kings. The transfer was on time. All the sights matched the stated program. Of course I'd have liked more time both at the Grand Museum (you simply can't see it all in 2 hours) and at the Valley of the Kings, but that's just a personal wish. The excursions were packed. Time flew by. I especially want to highlight our guide Nina — a knowledgeable and upbeat specialist.
It so happened that I went to Sharm El Sheikh on vacation alone. I'm not a huge fan of long beach vacations. I wanted to see, learn and try something new. I decided to book plenty of excursions. From reviews I learned about online booking through TUT VOYAGES. Booking is free. Apart from the pyramids trip, I paid a 25% deposit on the excursion price. Everything organized precisely, honestly, clearly, with no unnecessary fuss. I plan to keep using their services. Thank you TUT VOYAGES for organizing my vacation! Wishing you continued growth and prosperity! 🙏😍❤
