Life Changing Adventure Trip with Discover Egypt!

My boyfriend and I just got back from the Discover Egypt tour with Encounters Travel and we had the time of our life! The company is well organized, knowledgable, and truly passionate about making sure your experience with them is one you won't soon forget. We LOVED Egypt and can not wait to return again one day to explore more of such a beautiful land. Some of the highlights were …

It was fantastic over all

We took a tailor made tour, from Cairo to Luxor to hurghada and back to Cairo with airport drop. Everything was taken care of very professionally, guides were so knowledgeable in regards of Egypt history. It felt really great to visit Egypt where they give excellent hospitality. It was an unforgettable experience. Thanks to Encounters travel.

We loved Discover Egypt

We travelled to Egypt with Encounter Travels this May and had the most amazing trip. Encounters were great from the beginning, from booking the tour, to airport pick ups and through all aspects of the tour. Our guide Waleed was the best guide we have ever had! His knowledge and enthusiasm coupled with his passion for Egypt and tireless efforts ensured that everyone learned a lot and had an incredible …

Nubian Tours - Egypt - Encounters Tour Company - Big Mo - Guide the Best

One of the last things our tour guide, Big Mo, said to us after our tour was "if you like this tour, tell everyone about Egypt - not our company but about Egypt." Whatever you think you know about Egypt, you need to recalibrate, this is the company and the tour that will help you do it. From the moment we left the plane in Cairo until 7 days later …

Nubian Adventure

First note that all the reviews for encounters on this post that are rated less than "very good" are for other encounters tours and not pertaining to Egypt, thus this tour should be even closer to #1 on the list. I traveled to Egypt with encounters Dec 19-27 of 2015 and it was the best travel choice I have ever made. As many others have stated I was apprehensive about …

Egypt Nubian Adventure tour

We just returned from our trip and have a heavy heart. We enjoyed Egypt very much and have to say the people, the guides from Encounter and the whole staff are exceptional professionals. As soon as we landed in Cairo the tour organizer-Khalifa and his associate met us and started taking care of the visa, security check point, transfer to the bus, etc. On board the bus he explained in …

Nubian Adventure

I am writing this as I relax in the hotel in Giza, winding down on my last day in Egypt. As I reflect on the memories and friends made over the last nine days, I am very thankful that Encounters made this an exciting, organized adventure for us all. My experience along the Nile was amazing, from the camel ride around the Great Pyramids, to the felucca trip from Aswan, …

Nubian Adventure

Every time I mentioned to friends or family that I would be going to Egypt, the response was "What?! You're crazy, it's dangerous." Well thanks to the whole group from Encounters Travel, I was set at ease and never felt like I was in the wrong place. They had every single bit of the trip laid out and made it such a relaxing and exciting tour. Some of my friends …

Awesome adventure with great people

I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun I had, how safe I felt, and how friendly everyone was. I say surprised, because I was apprehensive about visiting Egypt with all the news I had been hearing. I never felt unsafe. Our tour guide, Hany, was the absolute best. He was always willing to explain any question we had, whether about a temple, or inquiring about the local culture. My …

Nubian Adventure

I did the 9 day Nubian Adventure and had a fantastic time. Encounters staff were great from the airport pickup right through to the very end at the airport drop off. The reps worked hard to make things run smoothly and because of their experience and knowledge, everything went off without a hitch. Our tour guide, Big Mo, was beyond excellent; his passion for Egypt's past, present and future was …

A great learning experiance

Encounters accommodated us with early check in times which made this trip so enjoyable, Hotels we stayed in were all clean and comfortable. All staff members from the Oasis, Isis and Luxor hotels, were all professionals and assisted us with all our needs and then some. …
