Incredible

Egypt has always been on my travel bucket list, and when my travel buddy and I saw this package there was no turning back! It was a good balance of touring and relaxing. Our amazing guide really took exceptional care of us and gave us a true Egyptian experience. I feel so blessed to say I've crossed this off my list in such a wonderful way. 20/10 would do it …

Awesome trip!!!

I love to travel and have visited many countries but I must say this trip tops them all! Not only did I feel safe but it was super fun and very educational. This tour highlights all of Egypt’s wonders along with a very relaxing stay by the Red Sea. Will be visiting again very soon!

BEST DREAM TRIP EVER!!

It has always been a dream to visit the Great Pyramids of Egypt and finally my dream came true. Not only did I have the chance to meet the Pyramids, I also had the chance to go to Luxor to see the Valley of the Kings and Karnak Temple and then end the trip with some relaxation in Hurghada by the Red Sea which was breathtaking. This tour is very …

Amazing adventure! Wonderful guide!

It’s hard to top all the wonderful & amazing archeological sites... except by having an extremely knowledgeable, educated, personable & insightful tour guide- Ahmed Kamouna was just that! You not only saw the sights, but learned the meanings behind them, how they were made- but also how they were discovered. It brought history to life- in a very safe & considerate to comfort (it was hot when we were there). …

Beyond expectations!

If you've been wanting to go to Egypt but you've been hesitating --- stop. And just go! This tour is perfect for a pretty comprehensive introduction to the country and most importantly to all that will whet your appetite about Ancient Egypt. It covers all the cool monuments, plus the added experience of actually spending real quality time on the Nile, plus, the traditional nubian village dinner was to die …

The tour guide made the tour extraordinary!

First let me say, if you are hesitating to visit Egypt, DON'T. Just go, it is safe, they are waiting to show you their country and the incredible history documented there. Security is everywhere and as a solo traveling female, I felt as safe as ever there. I joined the Nubian adventure after spending 5 days in Egypt, exploring the things I wouldn't see on the tour, on my own. …

Only problem was the Wi-Fi at some hotels. For those of us who rely on it because it is too expensive to use data from home, it is important. I had a lot of problem doing internet banking at one place which meant my money wasn't transferred before the holiday weekend

Great adventure

This tour was absolutely fabulous. Encounter Tours was great to work with. We purchase this tour from Groupon and I was a little nervous. Mariska was fabulous and got back to me very quickly regarding all my questions. Our guide Big Mo made this adventure one of the best tours my husband and I have ever taken. He was always a step ahead of our needs and questions. I would …

Discover Egypt - A History teachers dream come true

In returning from the 9 day Discover Egypt tour, I wanted to share my experience. From our initial communications with Encounters Travel to our final day in Egypt, this was the most well organized tour I have experienced. We had a large group of friends and family (13) and while not speaking for our whole group, I can safely say I was beyond thrilled with my experience. We were met …
