I availed of the jordan and egypt on a budget tour via tourradar last Apr 29. The tours turned out to be subcontracted by Fez (when booking via Tourradar) to Encounters travel, who we have been dealing with directly during the tour. As a travel agency for this tour, I have had very minimal contact with Fez; I have only coordinated with Fez via email BEFORE the tour started. All …

Very professional and customer service oriented company. All of the staff I encountered were thoughtful, and accommodating. When there was a bit of a concern I had, I was not brushed off and treated rudely as I've experienced with other companies; my concern was addressed immediately in a fair manner. I highly recommend this tour company; they treat people with respect and honestly seem to want your trip to be …
Gods of Egypt tour - Excellent
Just finished the Gods of Egypt 9-day tour, travelling with my mum. This tour was fast-paced and covered pretty much everything we wanted to see in Egypt. I would highly recommend it to anyone thinking of travelling to Egypt - the Encounters team were excellent and everything was extremely smooth from start to finish. Our Egyptologist guides (Hossam and Mohammed) were very knowledgeable and always happy to answer questions and …
Amazing Egypt Experience
I availed of the Jordan and Egypt Shoestring tour via Tourradar last Apr 29. The tours turned out to be subcontracted to Encounters travel, who we have been dealing with directly during the tour (Fez travel as middleman in Tourradar). The Egypt leg was the best part of the trip. We had the BEST tour guide, Ahmad Kamouna. His manner of explanation was very animated, interactive and educational; also very …
Egypt on a Shoestring tour
I can’t say enough great things about my experience with Encounters Travel on the Egypt on a Shoestring tour. We were met at Cairo airport by Ahmed who ensured we had a smooth transfer to our hotel, briefed us on what to expect, and gave us valuable advice we used while in Egypt. Our Egyptologist Ahmad was simply amazing. He is not only knowledgeable and passionate about his work (he …
Egypt on a shoestring
I just took the Egypt on a shoestring tour and had an amazing time! I highly recommend this tour. Ahmed met us at the airport before going through customs, gave us a briefing on what to expect and even tracked down a lost suitcase for someone in our group. Not an easy feat since the bag had been missing for a week! Our tour guide Ahmad was exceptionally qualified, he's …
Shoestring tour in Egypt
We had a great visit in Egypt. This is the 2nd leg of our Jordan and Egypt on a shoestring tour. Our guide is Ahmad Kamouna, an egyptologist and a professor! We happen to be a small group and very intelligent :) so you can imagine how much we learned from Ahmad K. His passion and love of history and art inspired us. My 8 year old is ready to …
Amazing experience!
Just spent the last 8 days on the Egyptian Legacy tour, Encounters Travel reps were the best, we had someone with us every step of the way! Every detail was organized and selected for you. The knowledge of the tour guides Muhamood and Hussam were exceptional. I definitely recommend and will share experience with others.
Amazing experience!!!
An amazing experience for sure, thanks to all the guides, drivers hotel staff that went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed the most of our stay! Totally safe and fun. Traveled solo and found a new family!
Spiritually uplifting and educational
I have been on a number of tours and by far this trip was the best experience ever. From our arrival at Cairo to our departure we were provided with the best service from our guides. Waleed is an exceptional guide and made sure that the experience was informative and comfortable. Bathing in the Red Sea was my spiritual highlight and soulfully rewarding. Thank you for providing our family with …
Best trip of my life
Egypt has being one of the most amazing places I have visit so far. Their food, beauty, history and people make this place part of your life. Also, this is a country that you want to come back over and over again. My husband and I were so happy to have Encounters as our Travel agency. They took care of us like a family and helped us from the begging …
Trip of a lifetime
Hey everyone! So I took a 10 day tour of Egypt through encounters travel. We went through Cairo, Luxor, and Hurghada, then back to Cairo. I was very worried for my safety because I was traveling alone, and had heard many things about Egypt not being safe, but the idea of seeing the Nile, and the pyramids and the Red Sea, drove me to travel anyway. I am mind blown …
