Incredible visit, fantastic tour!

My wife and I normally don't do organized tours, but we chose to for visiting Egypt and Jordan. Egypt was pretty much perfect. We saw so much, learned a great deal from the highly educated and personable guides, and stayed in very nice lodgings. The organization of the Egypt portion of the tour was also excellent - at no point did we feel uninformed, confused, or annoyed. Mahmoud was our …

9 day Egypt tour-amazing!

Our family did this tour with Encounter Travel during Thanksgiving time. It was so much fun, safe, and everything was top quality! We were escorted and accompanied by our guide, Big Mo—who patiently explained and answered questions about Egyptian history, the temples, pyramids and tombs, pharaohs, mosques, customs, traditions and even food! Islam took care of every detail and every need we had. To see history envelope you and come …

Our 10 day tour of Israel revealed the astounding layers of history (modern and ancient), culture, and sights. Our tour guide, Hilik, did an outstanding job balancing the secular with the religious, history and opinion, levity and seriousness. Several times he adjusted the schedule to make sure we saw things well, and the bus driver took longer, scenic routes. The only criticism was that the tour was a bit large …

Ode to Waleed Kamouna

Waleed guides us through limestone, alabaster, and marble antiquities. And in a short time we forget present day iniquities. We follow the route of the Pharaohs and Nile. While listening to his stories, we are left beguiled. Greece has its athenaeum, and Rome its Coliseum. Now we stand awed before pyramids and mausoleums. Through a Nubian dinner and a felucca cruise, This exceptional man becomes our muse. We discover Aswan, …

We were a family of six. My 3 sons whose ages ranged from 17 to 22, my mum 73, my husband and me in a wheelchair. You would think that's a tricky bunch to please. But everyone on the team, Effie, Cassandra and our driver went out of their way to make our six day tour of Greece memorable, informative and lots of fun. Thanks for everything we will treasure …

My husband and I had a really great time. However we felt as if the price of the trip was really expensive towards the end because all the good stuff were add-ons and had to be paid separately. The tour guide we had was amazing. All the accommodations was good.

Trip of a Lifetime

Best trip of my life. “Magz,” our Tour Guide, and Khalifa, Tour Leader, made the trip extraordinary. You must go to Egypt and do the Discover Egypt tour through Encounters Travel. Don’t let anyone tell you Egypt is not safe. Yes, it absolutely is! We visited Cairo, Aswan, Luxor, and Hurghada over the course of 9 days, and it was magnificent. We felt safe at all times and never felt …
