I had an amazing trip. Our trip manager and driver and were so knowledgeable and I felt totally taken care of the whole trip. They weren't just there to do their jobs but went out of their way to make the experience enjoyable and exciting. I really appreciated the history talk and presentations made because it gave so much more context to he places we were seeing and made me appreciate the countries even more. They kept things smooth even during chaotic situations and made sure we got the most out of our trip. Great people and so professional

Trip was great, all the add on activities we chose were unreal. The accomodation wasn’t amazing (other than our final location), but were well located which made the rest of the trip convenient.

A great trip! The core destinations plus the optional add-on destinations provided a diverse view of what Egypt has to offer. And, of course, the whole experience wouldn't have been nearly as good were it not for our exceptional trip manager, with his enthusiasm and impressive knowledge.

Absolutely loved this!!! Our trip manager was fantastic and really set the tone for the trip. It was awesome knowing how she was an El Nido native and had personal recommendations. Every island hopping boat tour was fantastic and unique. I seriously recommend this for anyone interested in the Palawan islands.
