Travel to Egypt
"My first trip with Travel talk tours was after the wedding. We wanted to spend our honeymoon in Egypt. We made early bookings and called them fifteen days before the due date for proper planning. We wanted this to be the most memorable event of our life but it never was. There were challenges with departure. There were delays and when we got to our destination, the hotel they had booked for us was not up to standard. They were ordinary rooms. Nothing special about their accommodations as they claim. Their tour guide did not have enough options of places we could visit, making it more difficult. It was horrible and we longed to be back home."

Conclusion
Reviews show a clear pattern: many travellers praise Travel Talk Tours for knowledgeable, personable guides (several mention guides such as Mustafa and Aykut) and engaging itineraries that include major sites and local experiences. Positive comments frequently note helpful drivers, smooth on-tour logistics and memorable activities. However, some reviewers report issues with accommodation standards, cleanliness and unexpected extra costs, and a few raised concerns about communication and unresolved complaints. Prospective travellers should confirm hotel standards and ask which services are included versus optional extras, and request written confirmation of any itinerary items deemed important before booking.
