Had a great experience on Encounters Travel "Discover Egypt" tour. Small group, everyone very friendly. Excellent guides (Big Mo and Sherif). All hotels were very nice. It is an active trip, but you see all the main sites and monuments in Egypt.
Fantastic Adventure! The monuments, tombs, pyramids, temples & statues of ancient Egypt are absolutely breathtaking. Add the considerable knowledge of our Egyptologist guide, Mohammed, plus the excitement of oversight trips by train and felucca and this vacation is truly the adventure of a lifetime! We couldn’t have been more pleased with our tour guide. He was friendly, funny, caring and extremely knowledgeable. Encounters Tours are absolute masters of logistics, flawlessly …
We were on Encounters Travel 9 day Nubian Adventure.from March 15-24.and enjoyed everyday. We saw so many wonderful sights in Cairo, Aswan and Luxor -all that Encounters Travel promised and more. Here are some things to know: Our guide, Mohammed, was very personable and extremely knowledgeable about Egyptian history. Everyday, he went out of his way to make sure we would have an A+ day. We were fully escorted all …
I just returned from the 9 day Nubian Adventure tour with Encounters Travel. The trip was absolutely incredible. Encounters Travel covered all of the planning and logistics from the moment we stepped off the plane in Cairo all the way to helping us through ticketing for our return flight. Our guide Ahmad Kamouna was amazing! He took us back in time to ancient Egypt through his passionate retelling of the …
I can't recommend this tour strongly enough. It was a great experience and a lot packed into 10 days. I purchased this tour through groupon, so it was definitely worth the price I paid and more. Our Egyptologist guide, Sheriff Hassan, was amazing. He was helpful to keep us from paying too much as vendors will try to get as much money out of tourists as they think they can. …
The places we visited were awesome and amazing. Actually, beyond amazing but I can't think of a better word. :) Ahmad, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable of the places we visited and local customs. However, I would suggest that the company be amenable to accepting other cards besides just Visa and MC.
Very responsive and helpful with any questions and gathering information before the trip.
Yes, easy to pay.
The tour company was organized, tour guide was very knowledgeable and did a wonderful job of making sure that we had a wonderful experience
Overall, this was an excellent tour. I have only got good things to say about the tour. The jordan part was almost like a private tour with excellent driver (Mohammad Al Tobohe) and Guide (Mr Khalid). They were extremely helpful whole time, particulary Mohammad who almost became my family member. They took really good care of us. The Egypt section was a really well organised well resourced tour. We loved …
We bought the tour on a groupon and what a deal it was. I have done Viking River Cruises before but this was also an outstanding trip. I absolutely loved Egypt and felt very safe there. Our tour guide was the best and really showed us a great experience. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone - young and old. One of my best trips ever!!!
Easy to deal with and kept in touch I would recommend them
