Macau Day Trip from Hong Kong
Tour / Activity
My Rating: 
Location: Hong Kong, Hong Kong
My Review: The church was not that impressive, but Casinos, market area and temple were worth the visit. Going up the tower was the best part of the trip. The view was awesome. The lunch at the Holdiay Inn was very good with quite a selection. Guide spoke very good English and did a good job at explaining history of island.

Cairo Airport Private Departure Transfer
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Cairo, Egypt
My Review: The drivers did an outstanding job of getting us from our hotel in downtown Cairo to airport. Since we traveled late at night, they also arranged with the hotel for a late checkout at no extra charge.

Private Tour: Egyptian Museum
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Cairo, Egypt
My Review: Very crowded but worth visiting. Not allowed to take pictures inside, which was only regret. However, advantage of going in a small group is you can hear your guide explain about the individual pieces. I recommend spending the extra money and visiting the mummies. We were able to see Ramses II.

Nile River Dinner Cruise in Cairo
Tour / Activity
My Rating: 
Location: Cairo, Egypt
My Review: I thought the food was very good and the ship and cruise along the Nile was nice. Not impressed with the belly dancer or singers. Other entertainment was very good. Worth doing first time, but would not do again.

Private Tour: Memphis and Sakkara
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Cairo, Egypt
My Review: I would like to thank both Viator and the tour operator for an outstanding job. The guides did an outstanding job and made the tour very enjoyable. Like at the Great Pyramids, be aware of individuals that want to give you free gifts. They are not free, and they will hassle with you for money. Avoid these individuals no matter how friendly and sincere they seem to be. Our guide warned us of these individuals. I also recommend visiting the carpet factories when leaving the Step Pyramid. Great values and they create employment for the poor people in the area.

Private Tour: Giza Pyramids and Sphinx
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Cairo, Egypt
My Review: I would like to thank both Viator and the tour operator for an outstanding job. This was my first time to Egypt, and I can't wait to come back. The guides did an outstanding job and made the tour very enjoyable. Only item to be aware of around the pyramids is the individuals that want to give you free gifts. They are not free, and they will hassle with you for money. Avoid these individuals, no matter how friendly and sincere they seem to be. Our guide warned us of these individuals. I also recommend taking the side trips when leaving the pyramids and the Sphinx.

Cairo Airport Private Arrival Transfer
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Cairo, Egypt
My Review: Traffic in Cairo is insane. Much worse than any large city in the U.S. The drivers did an outstanding job of getting us through customs and driving us to our hotel in downtown Cairo. Do not even attempt to drive yourself, and the van they pick you up in is much nicer than the cabs and price is about the same. Worth the extra money.
