The best way to experience Egypt

Me, my husband and our three friends just finished up our Nubian Adventure 9-days trip in Egypt and we truly had the best experience. We had Big Mo as our tour guide and he is truly a one of a kind human being. His wisdom and expertise was incomparable and we were so grateful for it. Encounters does an amazing job of making the tour absolutely seamless- the rides were …

Egypt Tour and Petra Tour was Amazing!!!

My travel buddies and I decided to visit the amazing city of Egypt and Petra! Our destination was pretty long flight from LAX to layover at London then fly to Cairo Egypt. As soon as we got there it was about 3 a.m. and one of the encounter guide was there to pick us up. Got to the hotel, just to fresh in up a bit, had breakfast at 6 …

Amazing trip!

My family and I had such a great time visiting Egypt. The country itself was incredible, and our tour guide, Islam, made the experience so much more enjoyable. Islam was full of knowledge - he was so great at explaining the history of each site we visited and answered all of our questions. We learnt so much and also laughed so much with him! Islam also took such great care …

We could not have had a more passionate guide or helpful reps. They were excellent. The condition of the room in the hotel in Cairo was poor, but venue excellent. The transport was good but all small buses are very bumpy. The felucca was also good but too long. My personal highlights were the pyramids, King Tut's tomb and Waleed Kamouna.

Delicious food on the felucca. The Cairo hotel was good. The Aswan hotel had no room Wifi. The NYE meal was not worth the money. The airport meet and greet was very good and it was an excellent holiday overall.

The views at the Cairo and Aswan hotels were amazing. The room didn't feel clean at the Luxor hotel. There were a lot of kids at the Hurghada hotel. Waleed is a very kind hearted person. He made this trip much more enjoyable. Waleed was able to give great information about every site we saw. He is very professional and knows a lot and was very helpful. Excellent trip overall.

The booking process was excellent. The airport meet and greet was on time + friendly. We felt safe with Waleed since the welcome meeting. Waleed had lots of information to share with us. The reps were very professional. The overall pace was a little fast, but I'm happy we saw a lot. The service at the Cairo hotel was not great– no towels, hairdryer. NYE party at the Aswan hotel …

I liked that everything was available to download on your website. The entire tour was excellent, 5 stars for everything from the hotels to the sites to the reps and the airport pickup. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the van ride from Luxor to Hurghada. Our guide Mohamud was so dedicated and knowledgeable. Learning so much about Egypt from him was the highlight. I would definitely recommend this …

Everything on this tour was excellent. The airport pickup was great, welcome meeting excellent, guide perfect, his information first class, reps were great. The itinerary was great but fast. Hotels all excellent except for Aswan hotel– dirty and old (room 401). All the sites were great and it was great value for money. Our guide Mohammed Kareem should be a pharaoh. He is welcome in my home anytime.

The Pyramids were the highlight of an excellent tour. Everything was great: the guide, reps, airport pickup, accommodation, transport, sites. The only negative was the bus rides. I definitely recommend this company.
