I went on a private tour with Waleed in March last year with family and friends, 9 in total and it was amazing from start to finish, so much info and things to see and do. But bare in mind, as Waleed kept telling us when we had an early start, this is an adventure of a lifetime, if you want a relaxing vacation go sit on a beach anywhere …

The tour was amazing. Our guide, Issa, was brilliant, really helpful and knew about all of the sites that we visited and he arranged lovely lunches for us each day. The hotels were fine, basic but clean and safe. It's a busy tour and you do a lot each day so you can make the most of a short holiday.

Overall an excellent tour that I am happy to have booked. The guide was friendly and had a thorough knowledge of the country as well as each site and explained everything well. Transport between sites was excellent with everything scheduled and organised well. Accommodation was okay although the food served in each hotel went beyond my expectations.

The trip was good, the guide was really friendly and knowledgable. Some days are a little too jam packed with sightseeing though which leaves little free time to explore the Medinas or enjoy the beach for a little longer

I am usually a do-it-yourself kind of traveler, so taking a five-day tour package is quite rare for me (maybe 3 times in the last 12 years). For non-Arabic speakers, getting around the Middle East is not easy, so I signed up through Tourradar for the "Jordan on a Shoestring" five-day tour with Encounters Travel and operated by local company Al-Thuraya. Our tour group of six persons, plus guide and …

This fantastic holiday takes the form of a road trip from Cairo to Luxor. Over a number of days I visited places of historic interest that are rarely seen by tourists but are the equal of more famous sites. I would like to give special mention to the impressive pyramid at Meidum, the very beautiful tombs at Beni Hassan and the well preserved temple at Abydos. The organisation by Encounters …

My trip to Egypt was an exciting time with my friends and family. The group in which we were assigned also became apart of my family as well. We had a fun experience and got to see a lot! Our tour guide Waleed was the BEST EVER!! Without him, the trip would not be the same! I would recommend this trip to anyone for the price that we paid. I …

For a men getting no younger who have wanted to see then Pyramids and The Valley of the Kings since an early age, this was truly a trip of a life time for me and my brother. It was not the easiest of trips for me or Mike with all the early mornings, long bus rides, and stairs everywhere, but was well worth the effort it took on our part. …
