Incredible!

Along with my "family members" who already reviewed below, I also recently completed the 9 day Discover Egypt tour with Encounters Travel. From the start the trip came together smoothly, with excellent communication by Ant in the UK office. I arrived into Cairo at 11PM and a representative was there waiting to guide me and two others from the family who were on my flight through the visa process and …

A Trip of a Lifetime

Our tour of Egypt through Encounters Travel was truly an awesome experience. Everything and every tour was well planned and worked like clockwork. Our guide Sheriff and Khalifa, the man behind the scenes made sure we were comfortable, cared for and treated well throughout the nine days. From the time we got off the plane, we had no worries. The accommodations were great. The hotels were quality and the Nile …

A fabulous discovery of Israel and it's Holy sites.

My friend and I looked for package tours to Israel online, but I am not very confident booking anything online unless I have a local phone number to call and speak to a person. We finally found our tour with a travel agent who had a number for me to be able to speak to a person and in this way feel assured that the company was legitimized. I spoke …

This trip was absolutely amazing. Our Egyptologist, Aboudy, made the trip incredible! The trip was the perfect length for us because we got to see everything we wanted without it becoming too repetitive or boring. The Egyptian people were so incredibly lovely and welcoming. When we do and up in Egypt again, we will definitely ask Mr. Aboudy to be our guide again!

Discover Egypt

We don't usually do tours but am so happy this is the one we chose. Communication, pick up and organization were done perfectly. You don't really have to think about what to do and can really focus on all the sights and experiences. Waleed(our guide)was excellent at reading his "family's needs". Anis(sorry for spelling)was ready to help us with anything we needed. My only comment would be to update transportation …

Discover Egypt and discover an amazing company!

It has been 6 months since we did Egypt with Encounters Travel, I am finally writing this review as I am thinking of the next place I can go with Encounters! Discover Egypt was a trip of a lifetime, I can't decide whether my breath being taken away in the hot air balloon ride as the sun rose over Valley of the Kings or having dinner at a Nubian Village …
