A well-organized Dender trip+Luxor. A very convenient bus (this is a rarity for tour buses in Egypt, but the NVM WAS ALLOWED TO VISIT the TOILET!!!) However, without fanaticism.
NINA, the only female guide in Hurghada, was a sooo pleasant surprise.
Nina is a fire pit, without shops and factories, without unnecessary husks, only the most important and interesting, this time we were just lucky. And as the apogee of pleasure, Nina treated everyone!!! ice cream.
Thanks not for the ice cream, but for the respectful and sincere attitude.
Thanks to Albatross and Nina for the miracle!

I ordered excursions to Hurghada, Dolphin Bay and Luxor. The online service is very convenient and fast, plus they answer all questions, always help, detailed information about the meeting place and what you need to take with you. Initially, I was very afraid to trust, suspicious. But in fact it turned out to be perfect, especially in comparison with another excursion from the hotel guide ((I will attach in the photo as reported on the eve of the excursion to albatross travel and the hotel guide.
I liked Dolphin Bay very much, there were nuances in the form of the fact that first you are taken to an abandoned hotel and there you wait until everyone gathers. Very long and very authentic. But then they lead to the yacht, everything is already beautiful) we swam to the dolphins, we managed to see only a couple of them from afar (then we sailed to the island, those who bought an excursion to the island landed on the island, and the rest (and we among them) stayed on deck and we were taken snorkeling. It was cruel here, we sailed against the waves, it seemed to me for an eternity, but in fact everything turned out to be nearby. I was wearing a vest, I recommend it if you don't swim very well either, because it's hard to resist the waves. They looked at the corals, there were not many fish, the water was cloudy, plus many were injured on the coral. But I didn't swim to the far reef, maybe it was prettier there.
Then we swam back, it was easier, over the waves, waited until the rest of the guys returned from the island. But of course it was a long wait, it was tiring. Then we were fed, it was delicious, like everywhere else the food.
Drinks are also included. Then we went to another reef, at first I did not want to climb, but the young man said that it was beautiful there, I decided and did not regret it. There are a lot of beautiful fish, the guide also feeds them, and it seems that they swim around you, I saw small, colorful and even beautiful at depth. Then we swam in the opposite direction, there we rode a cheesecake (willing), one kid fell out of the cheesecake) but he was quickly picked up)
I also really liked the trip to luxor, I took a comfortable bus, an excellent guide, the first stop in a couple of hours, to eat, drink coffee, toilet (toilet is paid, better take pounds). Then we go further to Luxor, a small interesting tour about life in the city, then a meeting with another guide on the spot, the only female guide in Luxor is Nivin (or Nina). She told me everything perfectly, tried to talk quickly and in the shade or on the bus, then let me go for a walk, there was enough time for photos and for inspection, but in general I wanted more, everything was running running to catch up as much as possible. The Karnak temple is admired for its power. But of course it's hot there, be prepared for that. Then we go to the motorboat, swim across the Nile and have lunch on the other side, just like everywhere else, a buffet, quite tasty, drinks for $ 1. After that, we head to the Valley of the Kings (sometimes you can go to the Valley of the Queens, depending on the tour). But I took a regular Luxor, I didn't want to go to the valley of the kings, but the alternative turned out to be waiting on the bus, I didn't like it. I finally bought a ticket to the Valley of the Kings for $ 20, and at the same time decided to visit Tutankhamun's Tomb for $ 15. The Valley of the Kings is beautiful, everything is very white, because limestone. But as for me, there is not much to see, three tombs are included in the price of $ 20, and Tutankhamun also looked at them. There's a single mummy lying there. Well, in general, it was possible to look at the legs of the mummy. A little bit of a face. Everything else is closed and a tiny room. In general, the tombs were not impressed.
Then they showed us to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, here it is very majestic, admires and offers a beautiful panorama of the city. After we visited the alabaster factory, it is very interesting that they present their goods, shout in chorus. There is a free toilet there. Then we went to banana island, but I didn't really get into it there, they give everyone three bananas. And for an additional fee, they offer to buy a buffet of fruits on a motor boat for $ 4, the fruits are not bad, not everything is in the photo, there were also guava and watermelon, and there were more of them.
Of the cons: the price tag on the entrance tickets is indicated in Egyptian pounds and there are 500-600 pounds for the Valley of the Kings and Tutankhamun, which is about $ 10-12 for admission. And not 20 and 15 respectively.
I liked the rest, the service was not bad, the guides helped with everything. And, again, it is very convenient to book online!

07/28/2024 I went on a boat trip. It was an amazing day. All the guys are very polite, funny, caring. One of them was indignant that we were slow, but he did it so funny that there is no offense at all)) the dive is under the full control of the instructor. In fact, he "gave me a ride" there, I didn't do anything at all, because I was diving for the first time, and psychologically I slowed down a little. Special thanks for that. There were guys who had done this before, and they dived deeper and longer with them. Therefore, an individual approach is provided. The food was delicious. Massage was given to those who wished. I refused, because I can't get a massage in front of everyone, these are my personal cockroaches. Photos and one video from the dive are sent to WhatsApp in the evening, it's not expensive, I thought it would be more expensive. I'm looking forward to the evening) We swam several times. After diving, I dived with a mask and a vest just like that, then the stop was for swimming with a mask, and after riding a banana, we dived off it ourselves and swam a little more.

Albatross Travel is an excellent organizer! I liked everything from the easy booking, to the excellent instructors on the ship, a delicious lunch, and the warm and beautiful red sea. The instructors are professionals in their field, they helped everyone with snorkeling. Hula Hula Island is beautiful, the water is clear and blue, we just thought that the sand would be softer) Thank you, Albatross Travel, we have booked another tour!🔥

I was with my husband on an excursion from albatross on a submarine. Everything was organized SUPERBLY! Do not listen to the horror stories of the guides and take excursions only from this company. The prices are much cheaper, and most importantly, these prices correspond to the prices listed on the website. No extra charges! They were picked up from the hotel on time, brought to the pier. Then we were transferred to a yacht and we drove another 25 minutes to the submarine. We plunged into the depths to the fish. After that, we were given a certificate stating that we were diving to a depth of 25 meters in a submarine. A very pleasant and memorable souvenir. We will be in Egypt for another 1.5 weeks and we will definitely go on other excursions from this company! Thank you for a great vacation!

I really liked the organization of an individual excursion from Hurghada to Cairo. A fresh car in excellent condition (Toyota Corolla) with a neat driver was sent for the transfer. The whole trip with the child was very fast and comfortable. I liked the guide, knows the Russian language and the history of Egypt well (we were in the pyramids of Giza and Saqqara), willingly talks about everyday life and life in modern Egypt. And a huge plus is the managers of the company who literally organized the whole trip in half an hour (after 6 hours we already went on a trip).

We went to El Gouna on 07.06.2024 on a yacht. The Albatross was quickly booked, just in time to be picked up from the hotel. It is convenient and the prices are relatively inexpensive. A new comfortable yacht. A delicious lunch with wonderfully cooked battered fish and shrimp, real, not powdered juices. El Gouna herself has little time, mostly seen from a motorboat. We saw dolphins. But the most memorable and spectacular is the bathyscaphe and swimming over the corals. I didn't even think it was so beautiful and interesting.

We went on a super safari with a child of 8 years old, we liked the tour, especially the child, we gave him a ride on his own on the quadric (the child has management experience, but for the first time in the desert and special impressions). The attendant is well done, always there and solves any issue quickly. During the tour, they gave 2 bottles of cold water, which is also just super in the sultry desert. The organizer confirmed the reservation immediately, for health reasons, the date of the tour had to be postponed, which was also done calmly without any fines and dissatisfaction. Thank you so much for the new experiences.

We were on a guided tour of Ras Mohammed and the White Island on 09/18/2024 with diving (with certificates). There are a lot of impressions. Amazing instructors, gorgeous places, delicious and timely lunch, mega sticky reef! From moray eels to stingrays - everything is there! We are very satisfied, we immediately took a diving trip to the island of Tirana, I hope we will stay with the same great impressions! Thank you, Albatross and Aquamarine Charm Diving Club!

We went on an excursion to Cairo on 11.06.24, we liked everything very much! The price-quality corresponds to all 1000%, the most cherished dream of visiting the pyramids and the great Sphinx has come true) I would also like to express my great gratitude to the guides: friendly, well-mannered people answered all our questions, told us very interesting things, showed us, it was a pleasure to listen. Despite the fact that the road was long, with such wonderful people, with interesting stories about the traditions of the people of Egypt, everything flew by unnoticeably)

I recommend contacting this company. The rating is 5 out of 5.

We took an excursion to the monastery of St. Catherine. Our group included not only Russian tourists, but also Pakistanis from England. It is not very convenient, the guide first told in Russian, then in English. The guide was silent on the way and back. Before visiting the monastery, they bring icons to the gallery, they allegedly say that monks make and that you will not be able to buy icons and candles in the monastery, but only from them. It is not true. There is no need to buy anything here, there is a shop in the monastery and candles can also be taken. There was also an unpleasant incident with the delivery of $ 100, the guide tried to slip dollars of 1985 issue, although when placing an order, the agency warns that the bills should not be earlier than 2000 and in Egypt it is now generally difficult to pay with bills older than 2006. He was very indignant at my request to replace them. Be careful.

We were on two excursions
1 Safari buggy + ATV. It is well organized. They were taken away from the hotel, brought to the site, and instructed. The guys accompany you all the way, make sure that no one gets behind, help if necessary. The equipment is serviceable. I've been with my son for 15 years. They changed back and forth who would drive what. We met the sunrise in the desert. We were satisfied. Next time we will take an individual excursion.
2 The Island of Tirana with a dive. Good organization. They were taken away from the hotel and brought to the gathering place at the marina. They were divided into groups there. I had to wait a bit, as they are bringing groups from all over the resort. It was our first diving experience. Before diving, we were instructed, given to fill out questionnaires, and distributed in turn. We dived one by one with the instructor together. The instructor guys are great. There were two stops. At the second stop, the reef was more beautiful and larger. My son dived twice, and once was enough for me for the first time. Next time we will definitely take it with two dives.
We were generally satisfied with the work of the service. I will advise my friends and acquaintances.

We took a swimming tour with dolphins, it is much cheaper here than with hotel guides.Everything is great. We were met at the hotel by a wonderful driver, drove us, saw us off, told us everything, prompted, waited for us. Everything is perfectly organized, I ordered an excursion from Moscow 1.5 weeks in advance. No one forgot about us, they wrote off upon arrival in Egypt and organized everything for us. Thank you so much. Book excursions here everything is great))))

We used the services of this agency for the first time and were very satisfied.This is not the first time in Egypt, we were on excursions and there were certain expectations and a miracle) the reality turned out to be better than expectations) Everything is very well organized, we went to Ras Mohamed and White Island,the transfer from the hotel is excellent,we arrived at the port, the team providing the walk was just above all praise, we had Manta 4, very responsible guys, so that I did not see tourists in Egypt, both in the water and at the moments of gathering and on the ship.The yacht is excellent, clean, there is a lot of space, vacationers are not crammed like in a barrel,everyone had enough space,lunch was quite good, bought up, admired the sea, lit up and really liked that there was no loud music,everyone could calmly enjoy the views, super!We will recommend it to everyone and we will go ourselves again.Thank you.

Excellent service at affordable prices! Everything is organized as it should be, they take it away from the hotel and return it back.
We ordered an excursion to Cairo on 02.10.2024 twice as cheap as from the hotel, it came out $ 80 for two, when the hotel offers such a price for one and scares you that you will be deceived and generally remain dissatisfied
Thanks a lot to the guide Amir, he is very positive and tells everything emotionally
The tour consisted of a trip to old Cairo, the national museum, a walk along the Nile (to be honest, nothing impressive, so if the price of the tour is not included, you can not take it, at your discretion, just ride for 20 minutes along the Nile and offer to buy souvenirs) then went to the pyramids and the Sphinx, after they took you to eat And back to the hotel!
The service meets the rating of 5
Take it, don't be afraid
Do not overpay the crooks from the hotel

I want to leave a review on an individual excursion to Luxor from the Albatross company. We went with a friend, we wanted to admire the beauty of ancient Egypt without haste and a large group of tourists. That is why the choice fell on the individual from "Albatross". At first everything went well, we quickly booked for the chosen day, made an advance payment, the car arrived on time, the driver was polite and helpful all the way there and back. But the guide... introduced himself as Mohammed, like all Egyptians, he had a birthday yesterday. The Russian did not give all 5 points, he gave all the information in the car. He persuaded us to take extra excursions, they refused for a long time, because it was hot and we understood that it would be hard for us anyway. Miraculously, during the bickering, the price of the proposed excursions fell by half (only today and only for us). Okay, let's go. And if in the first temple, Karnak, the guide still walked with us a little, in the second he only ran to one of their walls to show a bas-relief with severed hands and other body parts (the name of the temple flew out of my head because everything was just running), then the third, the temple of Hatshepsut, just showed from afar, He told me what happened on the first, second, and third floors and sent me alone. I was sitting in a cafe myself. This is how an individual sightseeing trip turned out. A friend who came to Egypt for the first time said that she did not learn anything new and interesting. It was in September, we arrived home, at first we thought to give up on everything, but then we decided to write a review, and it was in the chat of the travel agency. It turned out that we are to blame for all the jambs ourselves. If something did not suit, why did they not immediately write to the chat, to our objection that not all tourists have Internet outside the hotel, they replied that they should have asked the guide to distribute it. And in general, it is necessary to warn that you will not have Internet on your trip. WTF????? Should we warn you about this? Shouldn't you tell us about all the ways to contact you? Are you not satisfied with the guide?? We have nothing to do with it at all, since all the guides are freelancers and God only knows who you will come across, the agency acts as an aggregator and orders tours from the organizers. Imposed services? This is the guide's earnings, we have nothing to do with it. Would you like to recommend us? Well, please, I didn't really want to. Instead of a quiet tour, we got a race, instead of accepting criticism, we got accusations that we were to blame.

I would like to express my deep gratitude to Albatross Travel! Today we returned from a tour of super Luxor + Arboretum! They paid extra for banana Island and the Valley of the Kings . An arboretum of fantastic beauty! There are no words to describe this whole deity!!! Banana Island is cool, we went boating on the Nile!!!! Our little dreams have come true! We were treated to fruits on the boat , and we were also fed lunch .
I would like to express special gratitude to the guide Nina! Very pleasant, competent, attentive and professional! At the end of the tour, Nina treated us to ice cream! And also thanks to Islam, our driver, bodyguard and the person/operator (unfortunately I do not know the name), who patiently answered all my questions in the whatsapp!

An excellent agency with excellent, erudite guides. I got used to the fact that Turks are late all the time, I expected the same thing in Egypt. I was pleasantly surprised by the efficiency and commitment of the agency's employees. I ordered excursions from Russia, and I kept in touch with the guides via WhatsApp. Excursions and escorts are beyond praise. I recommend Albatross Travel for choosing excursions.

I would like to express my gratitude for the organized Luxor Standard tour.
Before this tour, in my head, Egypt was associated with the most beautiful sea, and now with the Greatest Civilization on the planet!
And this is all thanks to the best guide to the history of Egypt - Besama!!!
His organizational skills, knowledge and presentation of the material are at the highest level!!!
Once again, thank you very much!!! 🫱🏻🫲🏻
And I flew home with great mood and memories. 🛫 Be healthy, all the best to you! ❤

We went on two excursions from Hurghada from this travel agency in October 2024. To Luxor and the hammam. The organization is wonderful - they took it away -they brought it on time, the whole program is completed, the managers respond promptly. All without prepayment - you pay already on the bus. The guide in Luxor was, of course, local, but when we took a tour from a tour operator at the hotel last year, the guide was also local, and the price was two and a half times higher. In general, we are satisfied, we will definitely go with them again.

It took me a long time to choose where to take an excursion from Sharm El Sheikh. I didn't want to mess with the hotel guide. According to reviews, I chose an Albatross and did not lose. Everything is clear and coordinated! The manager is always in touch via whatsapp, answered all questions. We have sent information about the transfer. The Tranchusfer arrived on the minute. The excursion itself with an evening Safari in the desert was very pleasant to my daughter! Especially quad biking and camel riding. We will recommend this service to friends and acquaintances. We have already planned the next excursion with them.

Hello everyone!) For the first time, we ordered an excursion through a third-party site, and not a guide, and we did not regret it.
Everything is very convenient and clear, they respond quickly and describe all the actions that need to be done, up to what to take with you (for example, towels and sunglasses))). At the appointed time, they were already waiting for us at the entrance to the hotel and from that moment we did not stay unaccompanied, everyone was very polite, tried to understand my broken English and never left me without their help. The tour itself is just a fire, a very beautiful island, a cool yacht, we stopped to swim and see the fish. We were very satisfied, many thanks to the organizers and the whole team

I liked everything, more than 2 hours flew by unnoticed.

A very cool tour company! Fast, high-quality and the lowest prices, in my opinion!
We traveled from Egypt (Sharm el Sheikh), the tour operator at the hotel offers the same routes for 2-3 times more expensive! It is alarming to buy excursions in shopping malls, and the prices there are also different.
The albatross is a salvation in this. A clear website with a detailed description of the excursions and making up-to-date edits! For example, about the Ramadan period and the adjustment of the program.
We arranged the tour in 3 minutes via Telegram (for whom it is more convenient to use WhatsApp)! No prepayment is needed. They respond quickly, they will tell you everything, they are always in touch.
The organization and conduct of excursions at the highest level. Everything is on time, clearly, good guides, prices correspond to those stated on the website. After the first excursion with the Albatross, we bought several more from them. Thanks a lot!))

I was in Egypt for the first time in May 2024 and of course I was looking for excursions. On the advice of many friends, I chose your company and did not lose. I chose two excursions :
1. Mount Moses and the Temple of St.Catherine and 2. in Petra (Jordan). I was delighted, I had a lot of positive impressions. Excursions are quite difficult (the road takes time), then climbing the mountain (it was not easy for me as a sports person), but when you walk, strength appears, and at the top at dawn you forget about everything from the beauty!!! I have dreamed of getting to Jordan, to the city of Petra, for a very long time, and here is a + 1 dream in the piggy bank. the road is long, but comfortable enough. Here I want to thank the guide separately, the person knows the history perfectly, speaks Russian perfectly - in general, everything is as I love it!!!! A very cool guide!!! and of course Petra!!! I'm thrilled. Thank you for the well-organized tours and the selection of guides and guides - this is very important. Thanks for the nice prices, I chose the same price, I didn't want to overpay. Therefore, in the future I will take tours from you and advise friends and acquaintances.

I recommend the agency, we went with them on 3 excursions from Hurghada. I liked everything very much. Efficiency , politeness and reliability. The prices are pleasant, much cheaper than the tour operator at the hotel! And the quality is no worse!
I want to say a special thank you to the guide Aziz! (We went with him individually to Luxor! It was amazing. On a comfortable SUV , with comfort and an interesting story about the city of ancient temples!!! )
Also thanks to the guide Amir! How much he loves his job, his eyes burned and it was very informative, interesting and succinct. We went with him to Cairo to visit the pyramids in a big comfortable bus!
Thank you so much and I sincerely recommend it! Verified 🙌🏻

We went on a bathyscaphe + snorkeling tour in June 2024 through this company. We are very happy with the trip. They are picked up directly from the hotel, without delay, at the appointed time. I picked up a minibus, the transport is comfortable, the air conditioner is working, the car is clean, the driver is friendly. On the way to Hurghada, more tourists were picked up. An escort met him on the spot, and he was paid exactly as much as was stated on the website. He took me to the yacht. The vessel is spacious, clean, and there are comfortable seats. All the seats were occupied, but there was no crowding, it was comfortable. You can buy paid drinks and chips on the yacht, but they also offered free Cola. Russian Russian is understood, the team is friendly, they try to answer you in Russian. There are third-party photographers, you can order photos and videos. This tour takes 3 hours, they do not leave far from Hurghada, there are viewing windows in the hold, fish and corals are visible. Few people went down to snorkeling, the team helps beginners, there are vests, masks, but if you have your own mask, it's better to take your own, since there are tubes in your mouth, I doubt that they are specially processed, and without a tube on air retention it's not very convenient. The reef on this tour is not very colorful, but swimming in the open sea is a thrill. Each group was provided with an individual car back to the hotel!!!In general, I highly recommend booking through albatross travel, the prices are the lowest, this trip cost us $ 10 and this is with a transfer from (to) the hotel. Now we have ordered an excursion to the orange island through them. I'm sure they won't let you down.

ATV Safari tour.
The organization is just great!
They were picked up from the hotel on time, brought to the meeting place, instructed, helped to put on arafats and gave a comfortable ATV for the child (a seat made of a rag so that the child's legs would not heat up). We rode both slowly and quickly, gave time for photos, drove into the village and treated them to tea, allowed them to sit on a camel and even drove a little.
If you ride a camel outside the village, you need to pay a little extra.
We arrived back at the meeting place and the transfer took us to the hotel with pleasant music.
Thank you very much, I liked everything!

We went on a Buggy Safari tour, we really liked everything! The managers were in touch all the time, the instructors were good, funny, and helped with everything. The prices are also great, considering that travel agencies offer 3 times more expensive for the same services! I was in Egypt for the first time and traveled through the desert for the first time! Thank you very much to the organizers for the impressions.
P.S. It was a pity that we did not know about the Bedouin children who run around with bracelets, they wanted gifts, but we had nothing at all. I almost cried myself from their sad faces🥺 Therefore, I advise you to take chocolates, sweets, a bottle of water or juice for the kids. They do not take money, but ask for sweets.
P. P. S. It is important to follow the instructions that managers write at the very beginning. We really had a case with another tour desk and if we hadn't followed the instructions, we would have left with others for unknown money.

Yesterday we went on an excursion to Luxor individually + Dalina tsars and Dendera. I liked everything very much!!! We did not regret that we took an individual one, the whole minibus was at our disposal (there were 4 of us) we drove back very comfortably.Accompanied by two drivers, they change every 1.5-2 hours. They drive very carefully. The air conditioner is constantly running in the car, it is comfortable. The guide is Russian-speaking, we had Mahmoud. It is clear that a person loves his job and his country. The tour was impressive, of course it is very hot, and the tombs are very stuffy, But it was worth it. Take a lot of water with you!!! Thank you for organizing the tour. We will also buy ourselves and advise our friends

A wonderful company for organizing excursions!
We went to Cairo and were very, very satisfied🔥
We took an individual tour in order not to depend on others and save time spent on shopping trips. We visited the museum with our guide, who told us a lot about Egypt, then a walk along the Nile, lunch and we spent 3 whole hours on the pyramids. We could have done more, but we are already tired 😂
Advantages:
- they say everything honestly, without special fan balls, as individual guides do.
- the price is almost 2 times lower for an excursion compared to a hotel guide! Three times lower.
In general, we enjoyed everything, thanks for a great trip guys! Good luck in your business!

Thank you very much for the individual excursion to Luxor + Dendera + Valley of the Kings.Everything is at the highest level.From the organization to the guide.Many thanks to the guide Aziz, who told us very interesting and informative things, and to the driver Safvat, who drove comfortably.They were picked up on time at the appointed time.The program was completed as agreed.What are the advantages of an individual tour? We ourselves regulate how much time we needed to comfortably see everything.The whole tour is worth the money.It should be noted that it is cheaper than in other organizations.Thank you for the services rendered.

I went with Albatross on 3 excursions. I chose this company because of the low price. We took a tour of the Nile. I would like to mention the excellent guide Mahmoud, who, in addition to telling us about all the sights, helped us solve everyday issues during the trip. The ship, the food on the ship is beyond praise. For me, the tour of the Nile from the Albatross was a real find.
I also enjoyed the tour to Cairo and Alexandria. We generally got it individually without any additional payments. The guides throughout this two-day tour also pleased us with their good Russian language and knowledge of the sightseeing sites.
The tour on the bathyscaphe was not long and pleasant. That's what we wanted.

Thank you so much, everything was just great. The tour to Cairo by bus took 10 hours (taking into account that 2 hours were taken from the hotels). The child fell asleep immediately, so he did not realize that it was a long road. The tour costs money that was paid, nothing extra was paid, all tickets were paid. A walk along the Nile, as mentioned, is $ 10, and we also took a sightseeing tour of the Pyramids, this is to look at and take a photo of the view of all the pyramids at once, it costs $ 10, but it's worth it. You go to the observation deck by transport (we got camels, this is something in the desert on a camel). Then the escorts take great photos at your request (they have already filled their hand in this), of course they are waiting for payment, we gave $ 3, and back to the owl buses on 🐪. We had a guide Omar, he just talked great, it was very interesting to listen to him, thank you very much. I omit the tour to the papyrus factory, lunch and the Nefertiti oil store, everything is standard there, they say you need to buy something. Believe me, who will go, if the road does not bother you, then it's worth a look!!!! We had a bus 50% Russian, 50% Polish and there were 2 guides for both groups, it's just wow, so who writes that the trouble with translation is not true. Thank you very much to the company for the pleasure!!!!!!

We swam to dolphin Bay, we liked the organization, it was calm, without too much fuss. We bought enough. Big reefs, diving, my son is delighted. There were few dolphins, but we saw a turtle, a moray eel, carals and all sorts of fish. I recommend this particular tour.

Before going to Egypt, I decided to look at excursions and came across Albatross-travel-egypt, the cost was pleasantly surprised, before departure I booked an excursion to Cairo to the pyramids on buses for myself and my son. We arrived at the hotel and an hour later the bus came for us, fortunately we managed to have a snack and take water, unfortunately we did not have time for dry rations. The journey time to Cairo is about 8 hours, there was one stop where you could go to the toilet for free, there was a cafe "Take 5", but the cost of food there is high, I do not advise buying there. We arrived in Cairo, the guide Mr. Mandyx joined us, we really liked the guide, he told us in detail and interestingly. First of all, we went to the museum, looked at mummies, sarcophagi, I do not recommend buying souvenirs in the museum, they sell expensive, it's better to buy souvenirs at the market near the sphinx, where the guide will advise you, in general, it's better to contact the guides when buying souvenirs. After the museum, we went on a boat ride along the Nile, each for $ 10, we rode for about 40 minutes, the guide told us about the river, and then we could all take pictures on the boat, after a walk we went to the papyrus factory, by the way, there you can buy papyri with drawings from $ 10, for example, I bought 3 small drawings there for $ 20 and plus, they had inscriptions of names on them, I gave $ 15 for inscriptions with names, but it was worth it, as for me, the papyri were beautifully packaged and put in tubes, I liked it. After the papyrus factory, we went to the dining room, had lunch, all the drinks were paid there, a simple water bottle for example for $ 2, so it's better to take 1.5-2 liters of water per person with you. After lunch, we went to the pyramids, where you can choose camel riding, on a "chariot" :), this is a simple cart with a horse for two, on this chariot we were taken along the road to a good observation deck, where you can take pictures, keep in mind, if you give a camera to the person who drove the vaz on this chariot, then he then he will ask for a tip, so see for yourself, either take a picture yourself, or prepare a tip :). I did not go to the pyramids themselves, they said there was nothing to see, just a corridor and at the end a room where there was nothing, no inscriptions, no drawings, no sarcophagus. After the pyramids, we went to the sphinx nearby, you can't touch it, unlike the pyramids, it is fenced, and everything is very beautiful. Well, in the end we went to the Nefertiti oil factory, and then back to the hotel, in general, the road with stops and excursions took 25 hours, so take a pillow for your neck, it will save you a lot. I wish you good luck and good excursions. I would like to thank Albatross-travel-egypt for the tour. I recommend.

We were on an excursion on 13.10.24 on the White Island.
I am still very impressed: the ship's crew, travel arrangements, bathing, and transfer are simply at the highest level.
The program included an unrealistically delicious lunch with lots of products!
We recommend it to everyone, now when they ask about excursions in Egypt, we will definitely recommend it and we will be happy to use it ourselves!!!

Hello, it's a pleasure to write a good review. We ordered a tour to Cairo for one day, communicated with the manager via the Albatross Travel messenger website, and agreed on dates. There was no visa, but we had everything done right before the trip. No prepayment, only on the spot already on the bus. Our family really liked everything, the program is interesting, there are a lot of good impressions. The work of the guides is a separate praise, especially thanks to Yusuf for his attentive attitude to each guest, he always had everything under control from start to finish. Everyone for our guests, as they say, is very friendly and always ready to help.
There were several people from Poland and Georgia besides us, but mostly everyone spoke Russian.
The road was a little tired, there were a lot of checks, but the buses are comfortable and these are such little things. We will definitely book another tour with you in the near future.👍😊🤗
