Trip of a lifetime

This was my second time in Egypt, and it was in all, a great experience. I couldn’t have been more pleased with the guide we had; Saadoon was knowledgeable, adaptable, fun, and made sure that we all had an optimal experience to the best of his ability. I wanted a certain book, and he made it happen. If we communicated our desires to him, he did his very best to …

Nubian Adventure!

We originally booked our 10day tour with a groupon deal and we’re plesently surprised at how well the deal worked out. We had some issues getting into contact with the booking agency over the phone I’m the USA, but received great email responses from the UK office. Our tour was amazing! We had the most wonderful guide (Saadoon) who really went above and beyond to make sure we were happy …

Gods of Egypt

We just returned from the 9 day Gods of Egypt tour and it exceeded our expectations. Everything was (almost) perfectly organized, from pick up at the airport to drop off on our last day. The tour guides were very knowledgeable, especially Emad who was our tour guide from Aswan to Luxor. They were willing to answer any question you had about Egypt, and I felt they were really interested in …

He was so incredibly knowledgable, well spoken, considerate, fun, flexible and went above and beyond for each and every one of my tour mates. If you needed something big or small he made it happen without …

Great experience

Had a great experience on Encounters Travel "Discover Egypt" tour. Small group, everyone very friendly. Excellent guides (Big Mo and Sherif). All hotels were very nice. It is an active trip, but you see all the main sites and monuments in Egypt.

Encounters Discover Egypt Tour with Red Sea Excursion

I can't recommend this tour strongly enough. It was a great experience and a lot packed into 10 days. I purchased this tour through groupon, so it was definitely worth the price I paid and more. Our Egyptologist guide, Sheriff Hassan, was amazing. He was helpful to keep us from paying too much as vendors will try to get as much money out of tourists as they think they can. …

Hello future Nubians and Beaches explorers! I just completed the 13- Day Tour and it was amazing. Mariah with Encounter Tours was very attentive to coordinate our pre-tour paperwork. She responded promptly to all inquiries I had made. Upon arriving to Cairo, we were greeted by Saul, the Tour Manager. He quickly directed us through the hustle and bustle of Customs at the airport with no delay. Our 13- Day …
