Mr. MAN

I traveled with Encounters Travel Sand & Seas Tour (EGYPT). The Trip was absolutely amazing without a hitch. Our tour guide Waleed (Who I would Strongly recommend if you’re considering this tour) was Knowledgeable and full of excitement. The trip was split into 3 cities over the 9 day period...Cairo, Luxor & Hurgata. With that said, Everything was totally SAFE. At no point during the trip did I ever feel …

Adventure of a Lifetime

I went on a 10 trip to Egypt with Encounters Travel. They work in Egypt with Discover Egypt. These guys are the best. I was met at Cairo Airport by Anass upon arrival. He also walked me through check ins and security at the airport when departing at the end of the trip. While in Egypt, the tour guides Magz and Ahmed were awesome. They studied Egyptology at University and …

Discover Egypt 9 day tour

This was an extremely well organised tour. We visited Cairo, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Luxor, Hurgada. We visited many important sites - it was a very packed itinerary but if you are interested in Egyptology it was wonderful. We also spent one night on a felucca. The guide was extremely knowledgable with excellent English. There were 21 people in all and we were split into two groups - one of 11 …

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 …

8 day/7 night Taste of the Balkans Tour

Overall I would recommend this tour. I first saw an ad for Encounters on the internet about a year ago and liked the variety of tours they offered as well as their reasonable prices. The idea of hitting 4 Balkan countries in one trip was appealing (along with the very reasonable price), so I booked it. The pros: I got to see A LOT... starting from Athens and moving up …

Nubian Adventure was amazing!

I went on the Nubian Adventure 9-day tour in early October and loved it. I am usually a solo traveler that does my own thing, but I knew that Egypt would be a different story so I took a chance on the Encounters tour and it did not disappoint. My group (shout out to the family) was a great mix of people - range of age groups, backgrounds, some couples …

Moroccan Mosaics - Encounters Travel

If this review covered just our guides throughout our trip to Morocco (Zouzou and Idris), I would give it 5* without hesitation. Warm, funny, engaging, extremely knowledgeable and always on hand to help out with the smallest of queries, both frequently went far beyond the call of duty on a regular basis. They were utterly and impossibly good hosts, even under the often unreasonable pressures put on them by some …

Spicy tagine tour

Our guides Zou zou and Idris were perfect hosts, very knowledgeable, and answered any questions put to them, with an honesty rarely found (even when asked some very intrusive questions by some more forthright tourers) We were a bigger than expected group of 43, and were split into two. This at times was frustrating due to some people wishing to spend longer shopping. The first week was very action packed, …
