FAQs Egypt Pyramids Tours

Egypt Pyramids Tours offers a varied selection of hotels and cruise ships. We only use first class and luxury hotels, often exceeding North American standards. Many of the selected hotels and cruise ships belong to International chains; Hilton International, Hyatt, Oberoi and Movenpick. They are picked based on location, cleanliness, friendliness, helpfulness of the staff, location, and best value for the dollar.

We will be happy to work with clients who secure their own accommodation directly with the hotels on frequent traveler points or vouchers. However, we will not be responsible for any problems or issues that may arise with the hotels or venues that were not booked directly by us.
