Provided thorough information patiently.
My tour didn't include everything on the itinerary and our guide wasn't as helpful as he could have been.
We just returned from a 10 day tour of Nepal with encounters travel. From start to finish the tour was amazing!

Upon arrival in Kathmandu we were met right away at the airport by our guides - we felt so comfortable right away! The trip was …
The Discover Egypt tour with Encounters was a fabulous adventure!

We saw the pyramids, Abu Simbel and Karnak temple just to name a few. The tour …
