"Booked a 15 day Egypt Trip with TL & let me start by saying that our Trip Manager LALIT was beyond exceptional. He looked after us from the get go, took calls & queries 24/7 (as we are from Australia) After reaching Egypt, his team were always available online & on the ground. His team was waiting for us at the airport as soon as we got out from the plane (literally plane door) We went to Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, Alexandria; road trips. It was all just perfect. We were skeptical about using an agency but we are so glad that we did. Highly recommend !"

"Me and my wife we recently made our dream trip to Egypt thru Lykke Travels and it was very memorable for us. Shankar, Lalit and the team were very professional from the start in organising the tour, customised it to my requirements. All the information were updated on their website for us to understand how it is structured. The guides were good especially in Cairo, Luxor and Edufu. There will be slight communication issues as not everyone speaks good English. But they were very friendly and made us comfortable everywhere. Just note that their daily tips were taken from me in advance when I arrived by the Egypt company for 8 days of our stay. Just don’t opt for this and tell them you will pay everyday directly to the guides. As we had to pay extra tips to them everyday as we felt bad by not giving anything after so much efforts they put in for us. Also you are expected to give tips everywhere as all courtesy or help is associated with tips. So make sure you have enough EGP change. We enjoyed our stay in Aswan & Luxor, the hotel & food were amazing there. Cairo hotel was not best compared to above, the only plus point is the view of Pyramids from their roof top. We had some mismanagement issues by their Cairo team on our last day and it was very disappointing for us. However Shashank made us feel comfortable and showed deep concern in our matter and was very prompt in handling it well and ensuring things were taken care for us then. Shows they are there for us until our return back to India. I had opted for Lykke Travels seeing the reviews given here and from some blogs and I am overall very happy with their services for making our trip very memorable. I would definitely recommend them to my contacts."

"We recently took a trip to Turkey through Travel Lykke and are thankful to the entire team of Travel Lykke for arranging everything. Special thanks to Ms. Jolly who prepared the entire itinerary for us and explained everything in detail to us beforehand. Had a really memorable trip."

"Travel Lykke Team helped us plan & execute a very memorable Egypt & Jordan trip from 2nd-14th Dec. We travelled privately as a family of 4 adults with individualised arrangements.I am happy with the smooth experience that saved us a lot of time, effort & energy in two new countries. We could spend time enjoying ourselves without have to worry about logistics. 1) Itinerary Planning: This was very patiently coordinated by Manisha Vijayvargiya. Since we had done our research & knew which places we wanted to visit, she helped us iron out the details. Her suggestions were according to our budget & her follow up was was patient but persistent. 2) Accommodation: Most of the hotels were good, with only one sub par exception. But to our delight, in both countries we were upgraded in the last night of our stay. It was a lovely surprise. 3)Transport Arrangements in Egypt & Meet-n-Greet at the Airport: This takes the cake. Everyone was on time. Very comfortable well maintained & clean spacious vehicles. Good drivers. Mr Md Yasser who received us, was very friendly & helpful throughout the trip. He was available on messages & responded fast to all queries. 4) Guides: All Egypt guides were good & knowledgeable who added to our experience immensely.Our Cairo Guide Ibrahim was superb who explained the history well & set context for our entire trip. 5) Only Downside in Egypt: The tipping culture is extreme there. Even though tips were collected for the entire Egypt trip at the beginning, most guides /drivers asked us for tips anyway. It was difficult to keep explaining that they would get it later as we had already paid. 6) Overall Egypt Experience: Amazing country with so much to see & experience. we had a wonderful time. Our tour manager Ryla, did a great job of opening an exclusive WhatsApp group with Egypt Ground team & kept track of us throughout. I am very happy with her & her team's service and response time. 7)Jordan experience: Another Fantastic experience. Very professionally handled. Meet & greet was smoother at Amman. With 90% people cancelling holidays due to war in Gaza, we hardly got any crowd at Petra, WadiRum & Dead Sea. People in Jordan are very friendly & welcoming of tourists. We were not hassled for tips at all which was a relief after our Egypt experience. We loved visiting Jordan. Both legs of our trip was well arranged & executed. I recommend Travel Lykke's services whole heartedly."

"This was our 2nd attempt for Egypt as our earlier attempt 2 years back was right before the 1st lockdown and duly got junked, we even lost our initial deposit. This trip since then was in the making and we wanted it to be double the fun, extra insured and more then meticulously planned. Enter Lykke Travel... Shashank and team not only planned the trip with elaborate and acute precision but also executed it with surgeon's accuracy. Shashank was there for the support through out the trip no matter if it was ODD hour or OFF hours. It really helped us with just focusing on the fun part and rest all was taken care of. Be it VISA sponsoring, Airport custom clearance, travel insurance, RT PCR test, transportation and what not... everything was right there at the right time. They have a well oiled network of guides, cabs and contacts. During our Abu Simbel trip, we forgot one of our bag in the cab and as we were sailing we couldn't retrieved the bag then. They made sure to have the bag transported back to us next day itself. Kudos to that :) Summing it.... Egypt is a place like no other and if planning for it then it should be from Lykke Travel not other.... 5 star to every category and Many Many thanks to Shashank and Team :D"

"We booked an Egypt Tour with Travel Lykke in mid March 2025. The process started more than a month before. The agency took care of all bookings, customised tour, transport, Egypt local team support, getting visa, medical insurance travel document and the list goes on. They have been always prompt to reply in mail/WhatsApp and provided timely updates and all documents beforehand. Special mention for Prathamesh, Rishikalpa, Suchet. During our stay in Egypt through a special WhatsApp group was created with Team Lykke officials, Egypt local office personnels and us, 24/7 contact was maintained and each issue was addressed and resolved. This tour had my octogenerian parents travelling and Team Lykke and their Egypt team took utmost care to ensure comfort for them throughout the weeklong tour. Travel Lykke is a highly recommended agency for overseas tours and I look forward to availing their service if I again go abroad. Thanks a lot Team Travel Lykke"

"Turkey was my first international trip together with my wife and I am really happy that I chose Lykke Travels as my travel partner for this trip. From beginning onwards they were really supportive and was responsive all the time. We covered almost all the locations as possible within the budget and pickup was sharp with prior information. I take this opportunity to thank Karishma Ji and Asma Fathima in particular for making this trip one to remember forever. We look forward to our next trip and surely we will opt for Lykke."

"We performed Trip to Egypt between 06 Mar 24 to 12 Mar 24 , under Trip ID Egypt LYK420980 from Bangalore.Trip planning was not good which not matched hotel accommodation.Spent time 3-4 hrs in hotel lobby after performing train journey or completions of tour as hotel was very strict to check in and check out. It embraced ,being tourist from other countries siting outside room with family not good at all. Organiser might have collected additional charges in advance or put a special request to hotel to avoid such inconvenience .Rest all was okay."

Local Turkey Agent was too good and arranged nice hotels, vehicles, sightseeing. After the tour booking, operations team of Lykke was very helpful. Need to mention name of Shankar here who was prompt in responding."
