Classic Holidays Opiniones 

Wow - what a great experience - our Classic Holidays Nile Cruise was amazing. We chose the International Hotel Seramis was a fabulous start to our holiday. A large well set up hotel right by the Nile and overlooking the Cairo Museum and Tahriir Square. The trip to the Pyramids was one of the main reasons for this holiday and they did not disappoint. Next on to Luxor and the Cruise on the MS Esadora, this boat is well equipped and has very friendly staff and the food was plentiful and quite varied. There are “posher” boats on the Nile I am sure - but we were very happy with the Esadora. There were excursions included on the trip which were well organised and always running on time, there were also a good choice of optional additional trips which again were well organised and very interesting, (some very early mornings though !) LOL One thought is we could have spent longer at the Valley of the Kings. All things considered the trip was a brilliant way to explore ancient Egypt. Then on to the Red Sea we chose the Cleopatra Hotel Makadi Bay, another wow - this brilliant hotel right on the Red Sea with so many swimming pools was perfect - in fact my wife wished we had allowed more than 4 nights here it was really really good - good food, good facilities, great staff, a great way to wind down after a major trip through this fascinating place. Classic Holidays made all our transfers, trips, experiences & flights work to plan - everything worked on schedule, a credit to Classic Holidays - it all worked like clockwork. Negatives are very few - tummy bug hit during the cruise, several fellow travellers were affected - not at all sure it was contracted on board or not - as some folks were affected before the cruise and some on the last night of the cruise? Optional excursions are payable in cash - a minor inconvenience really - but take a good amount of £GB for this, also it’s difficult to work out how much Egyptian currency to get ? We changed very little really and you do not want a lot of local currency when you leave it’s difficult to change back.

The arrangements for outgoing travel were good though it would have been helpful to have flight details earlier for peace of mind. We flew with Egyptair which was fine. Our guide, who met us at the airport, was well informed, personable and very professional. The stay on Royal Esadora was very good, accommodation, food, service. The trips and visits were well organised. Onward flight and stay in Cairo was very good, hotel, recommended personal guide, as well as the pre-arranged trips and visits provided by Classic holidays. We felt the package provided very good value for money.

Classic Holidays have been extremely good and the holiday organisation exceptional. There has been one issue which disappointed us but Classic Holidays are doing everything to resolve this. The organisation of transfers was exceptional, we were met at every change over and guided through check in, passport control etc. the cruise guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. All in all highly recommend Classic Holidays.

We have waited to do this trip for the last 6 years and did not disappoint, well worth the wait. Classic Holidays have been professional and have always been extremely helpful each time we contacted them. This trip has been amazing and I have recommended it to many of our family and friends. The whole experience has left us with beautiful memories. The Guide was professional and informative throughout and we were well looked after.

We booked our Nile Cruise trip with Classic Holidays. On arrival at Cairo airport we were met with a representative from the company, who took care of Visas, making sure our luggage arrived safely and were guided to our waiting taxi to take us to our hotel. From the start of the trip, then flying to Luxor, joining our boat and sailing down to Aswan I can say we were looked after very well. We had a lovely guide called George. Every day was packed with exciting trips to temples, tombs, the Pyramids. All very well organised. We felt very safe and relaxed throughout the holiday. I will definitely book again with Classic Holidays. Joanna Williams

We really enjoyed our vacation, the cruise itinerary was well organised and the rep (Hani) was brilliant. I would recommend Classic Holidays for experiencing Egypt.

Well organised trip. Excellent and very knowledgeable guides in Cairo and on the Nile cruise. Early starts to avoid the crowds well worth the effort to appreciate the amazing sights. Faultless travel arrangements with agents meeting and greeting and helping with onward journeys. MS Esadora bit tired in some areas but good food and reasonable cabins. Old palace hotel south of Hurghada was a perfect 5 day end to a memorable adventure.

Faultless from start to finish , met in person at all points of arrival and departure , worry free holiday . I had never heard of Classic Holidays before but after reading the reviews I booked a trip to Egypt , great advice given before booking , which was really helpful , my husband and I had a fabulous holiday and I would certainly use this company again .

Excellent holiday experiences from beginning to end. English speaking representatives met us at every step with safe drivers / vehicles. Sound advice from the booking agent saved us money. I recommend Classic Holidays, and would use them again.

I have used Classic Holidays for many years now. I've always found their agents very helpful and my holidays to Egypt have always been to a very high degree of satisfaction. Anyone thinking of going to Egypt? I would highly recommend, Classic Holidays.

I have been on 4 previous nile cruises and I have to say this has been by far the best. Hany is the most knowledgeable guide we have ever had. Our boat was far superior than all the previous boats we have been on. The holiday was amazing overall.

Booking with Sarah was very good so easy

Our ship was fantastic. The royal princess was impressive and the service, accommodation and the food was brilliant. Our guide Hany made our holiday extra special, he was fantastic. All the staff were amazing and worked so hard to make our holiday special. We had a wonderful time and always felt safe. We will be returning soon. Thank you for a really enjoyable experience.

Slick, seamless organise station.
Our on board expert was superb, as was the exert at the Cairo legion.
Best holiday ever!

This was a trip of a Life time. Classic Holidays were amazing and arranged everything with such fine detail. Big thanks to the agent Sarah who recommended and arranged everthing
We had 7 days on the Nile on the MS Princess which was sublime. Our Egyptologist and Guide , Sam was a walking encyclopaedia, we can not praise him enough.
All the tours were amazing including all the extras Sam provided were really good .
The food on board was fabulous and no-one was ill with Egyptian tummy !
We then transferred down to Hurghada and stayed in the Fort Arababeque in Hurghada for a complete rest ( we needed it) again a great location and hotel .
In Cairo we stayed in the Marriott Mena House Hotel , again super hotel and the view of the Pyramids from the hotel gardens was out of this world .
It was end to end service from Classic Holidays and if you are thinking of going to Egypt I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Great organisation. Fantastic food brilliant trips, lovely staff and value for money. Great boat with good amenities. The best thing though, and we have travelled the world extensively, was our guide Ayman. Absolutely superb.

I enjoyed this holiday experience very much. I saw everything I wanted to see. The guides were friendly and informative. The Nile River Cruise from Luxor to Aswan met my expectations as did the stay at the Steigenberger Pyramids Hotel, Cairo. The buffet food was varied and good and all the transfers were carried out smoothly and without problems.

Everything very well organised. Guides were superb, amazing knowledge. We saw everything we wanted and more. Ship was excellent, comfortable with good entertainment and decent food. Staff first class.
Liked the idea of tips included.
Would have preferred to pay for trips by card rather than sterling. Good value. Would have preferred to fly direct from Scotland.

Superbly organised offering a super boat, hotel and trips at a great price. Definitely recommend

The accommodation, the food and, most of all, the staff who were excellent. Hotels in Cairo and Hurghada were first class. The cruise ship had all conveniences, and the tours were excellent, informative and well organised by the tour guides.
