Best Birthday Ever!!!

I have just returned from my Best Birthday Celebration Ever! My husband, daughter and I journeyed to Egypt 5/5/17 with Encounters Travel and their Discover Egypt Package. This was at the top of the Bucket List for my husband and I and it far exceeded our expectations. The London Group of Encounters was wonderful in allowing and accommodating our 10 yr. old daughter. Encounters provided a safe environment that we …

Uncover Egypt

Through many thoughts and looking back at photos I came to the conclusion that I think I am good on traveling for a little while (probably very little). Only because that last trip by far took the cake! The history alone cannot be topped and the sights were so much to take in that it is hard to even comprehend what I saw. That might sound silly but believe me …

Encounters Travel Egypt Uncovered

My husband and I just came from the Egypt Uncovered trip and it was above and beyond my expectations. The trip was amazing and so exciting. Prior to the trip, Mariska made sure we were clear about all of the options for the trips and made sure we had every document that we may possibly need prior to the trip. While on the trip, we leaned so much about Ancient …

Tourism

I loved Egypt! !! This is the most interesting country I've ever been. Everything is so amazing. The tour guides did everything in their power to make everyone in my group, happy. We felt so safe and cared by them. I didn't have to think about anything, and I saw and did so much in 10 days. I learned so much about the acient and modern culture, and about the …

Incredible!

Along with my "family members" who already reviewed below, I also recently completed the 9 day Discover Egypt tour with Encounters Travel. From the start the trip came together smoothly, with excellent communication by Ant in the UK office. I arrived into Cairo at 11PM and a representative was there waiting to guide me and two others from the family who were on my flight through the visa process and …

A Trip of a Lifetime

Our tour of Egypt through Encounters Travel was truly an awesome experience. Everything and every tour was well planned and worked like clockwork. Our guide Sheriff and Khalifa, the man behind the scenes made sure we were comfortable, cared for and treated well throughout the nine days. From the time we got off the plane, we had no worries. The accommodations were great. The hotels were quality and the Nile …

Discover Egypt and discover an amazing company!

It has been 6 months since we did Egypt with Encounters Travel, I am finally writing this review as I am thinking of the next place I can go with Encounters! Discover Egypt was a trip of a lifetime, I can't decide whether my breath being taken away in the hot air balloon ride as the sun rose over Valley of the Kings or having dinner at a Nubian Village …

Amazing adventure

Egypt was everything I had imagined, and more. With Encounters Travel, I was able to visit several historical sites (pyramids at Giza, Valley of the Kings, Temple of Abu Simbel, to name a few) across 4 cities, in a span of a week. Our guide and tour leader were kind, knowledgeable, spectacular, and had a great sense of humor. They ensured our safety at all times, and provided us with …

Egypt March 2017 through encounters travel

It's been 2 weeks since we came back from our trip to Egypt and it still seems like a dream come true. Egypt offers spectacular history, sights in so many of its cities. You just have to marvel when you see Abu Simbel, the pyramids at Giza, the temples at Luxor. So lucky us we could see greatest tombs in The Valley of the Queens, highly recommended Nefertari's tomb and …
