MOST AMAZING TRIP THUS FAR!!

I bought a ticket thru living social at 3am when I couldn’t sleep and then said to myself “What did I just do?!” turns out what I did was make one of the BEST DECISIONS OF MY LIFE!!! The travel agency was easy to work with and always available via telephone (UK HOURS) I traveled alone for an additional few of 200 or something but they found me a roommate …

Discover Egypt

Amazing!! This trip was actually a birthday present for my husband. He likes to travel and see new things but it became an experience of a life time. Everybody in the group were extremely friendly and had a great time with each other. But our tour guide. What can I say about him. "Big Mo" was actually like our big brother. He went out and beyond to make sure everything …

Discover Egypt Tour August 26-September 3

This tour was by far the best tour I have ever been on. The Itinerary is incredible and jam packed with so many cool things to see and do. Just being in Egypt, the most authentic place you will ever go, was amazing. The pyramids, abu simbel, aswan, luxor, and Hurghada were all so safe and fun. Go to Egypt now as it rebuilds its reputation while the value is …

Fantastic tour with a great organisation

I just finished my Encounters Travel tour "sands and seas" - it was excellent. I don't usually travel in a tour group but I was pleasantly surprised. I was met at the airport by my super helpful tour leader, Kalifa, and was guided through immigration to my waiting vehicle. Kalifa made sure that every moment was well planned and executed without any hitches. He provided helpful information about Egypt and …

AMAZING EGYPT with the best tour guide, BIG MO!

My husband and I took the 9 day Discover Egypt tour in July 2017 and it still feels like it was just a dream! We made the best choice by using Encounters travel for this trip. They were meticulous with our itinerary from the moment we stepped off the plane to the moment we returned home. Every single person in the company that we dealt with was extremely helpful and …

THE MOST AMAZING TOUR GROUP - In the world, litterally!

Wow, I really don't know where to begin. Egypt was my 18th country I have visited, and I have taken tour groups in the past. This did not feel like a tour group, it felt like a family! From the minute I booked my tour, I had every question I needed answered (and I asked A LOT of questions) to the time we got dropped off after the tour it …

The best

I couldn't say enough good things about the company if they paid me. (and they didn't) Mariska and Anthony were so helpful in the planing, and the staff in Egypt provided top notch service A-Z the whole way. It was the trip of a lifetime, I can now cross it off my bucket list with Joy. I spent two weeks seeing Egypt from Alexandria to Abu Symbel, and all the …

Please don't go

This tour & tour guides were so awesome & there were so few western tourists in Egypt, which made it even better, & I dont want a bunch of people to go and ruin it! We experienced nearly every part of Egypt on our tour, each awe inspiring in its own way. Philae, Luxor, OF COURSE the pyramids & sphinx, felluca down the Nile, Hurgada Red Sea resort...it was a …

Egypt. What and incredible place to visit. Dont miss out!!

We booked our 9 day Discover Egypt through Encounters Travel. I was a really looking forward to seeing all the amazing history that Egypt has to offer , but was a little uneasy because of current events. From the beginning our travel agent (Anthony) at Encounters Travel was so helpful in answering all my questions and concerns. Upon our arrival we were met and carefully guided through the visa entry …

An amazingly kind and knowledgeable guide Waleed Kamouna

My wife and I toured all the major sites in egypt. We had the good fortune of having Waleed Kamouna as our guide. This was an amazing trip in large part thanks to Waleed. He was so knowledgeable of all of the siteS that we visited, that I think he should be a university instructor. He was attentive to every need of folks on the boat. The few folks who …
